Odontogenic Tumors, Odontoma
Conditions
Brief summary
Computer guided buccal cortical plate separation was performed for ten patients using patient specific osteotomy locating guides and pre-bent plates. The guide was designed to outline the osteotomy, buccal cortical plate was separated, the lesion was removed, finally the pre-bent plates were used to fix the separated cortex.
