Study Notes

BSSO Technique Overview

The first step in the BSSO (Bilateral Sagittal Split Osteotomy) technique involves making an incision in the mucosa of the oral cavity, typically in the vestibule area.
During the incision, the surgeon exposes the underlying bone and soft tissues, ensuring access for subsequent procedures.
The purpose of dissection is to carefully separate the soft tissues from the mandible, allowing for clear visualization and access to the bone for the osteotomy.

Surgical Procedures

Lateral vertical osteotomy is performed on the mandibular ramus, specifically at predetermined locations that facilitate the splitting of the mandible.
A frequent complication that can occur during the dissection phase is excessive bleeding, which may result from injury to the blood vessels surrounding the surgical site.
