Abstract

Purpose: There is no consensus about the ideal fixation methods and their effects on the condyle after the sagittal split ramus osteotomy (SSRO) procedure. The aim of this study was to compare the incidence, clinical presentation, and treatment of condylar sagging between different fixation methods following SSRO.
