What is protruded mouth surgery (Anterior Segmental Osteotomy)?
Performed when both the ulitis and teeth are protruded.

The surgery is suitable when both the ulitis and teeth are protruded.
Extract 2 premolars behind the canines (2 upper, 2 lower) and push the protruding ulitis and teeth into the site of tooth extraction to improve the protrusion problem.

The area affected by the surgery is limited to the region around the mouth and does not bring about change in the jaw joints. For this reason, it is not suitable when chin revision is required for a long face or facial asymmetry.

Surgery Method

Over-correction might be caused and you might have an appearance of a toothless person when the ulitis is pushed too far into the empty space where teeth was extracted from during the protruded mouth surgery.
To prevent over-correction, precise planning should be performed to move the ulitis to the proper position and then, orthodontic treatment should be provided to fill in the remaining site of tooth extraction.

1. Create space by extracting 4 premolars behind the canines.
2. Push the ulitis and teeth into the site of tooth extraction and fix it in place.
3. Fill in the remaining site of tooth extraction through orthodontic treatment.

TIP
