摘要

The short face has been challenging in orthodontic and surgical management due to unfavorable aesthetic results. More surgical alternatives should be described in the literature. The objective of this report is to propose a novel surgical technique complementary to orthognathic surgery for the management of the short face. To this end, a retrospective series of 10 cases analyzes and describes a novel method using autologous mandibular angle grafts after mandibular angle recontouring. The autologous mandibular angle graft technique is a simple, minimally invasive technique that allows mandibular angle ostectomies as interposition grafts for chin and maxilla descents, improving aesthetic results and bone stability.
