Optimizing Esthetic Outcomes and Bone Stability: Chin Advancement Through Inverted V Osteotomy.

Traditional horizontal osteotomies for small and short chins often yield suboptimal results due to limited bone advancement, resulting in deep labiomental folds and heightened bone resorption risks. This study investigates the effectiveness of an innovative inverted V-shaped osteotomy technique in enhancing esthetic outcomes for patients with such chin concerns. Thirty-eight patients who underwent inverted V-shaped osteotomy for recessed chins between January 2018 and June 2022 were included.
