Update and develop your skills with our new book Advanced Oral Surgery 🚀 edited by Andreas Filippi, Fabio Saccardin, and Sebastian Kühl Following on from ‘Basic Oral Surgery,’ this is the perfect book for advanced practitioners who frequently perform oral surgery procedures in their practices as well as for current and prospective specialists in oral and maxillofacial surgery. Like the first volume, it is designed as an atlas rather than a textbook. In the clinical chapters, particularly, the theoretical content is outlined in short passages of text and follows a similar structure: indications, contraindications, step-by-step clinical procedure, and postoperative course. In addition, it contains numerous series of images and videos linked via QR codes.

🔍 Virtual Surgical Planning in Sagittal Split Osteotomy (SSO) Sagittal split osteotomy, a common procedure in oral and maxillofacial surgery, is not without its challenges. One of the major concerns? Nerve damage. With our VSP services, we increase confidence in the procedure and refine the way surgeons’ approach SSO: -         ✅ Accurate mapping of the mandibular canal.   -         ✅ Visualization of the distance from outer cortex to mandibular canal. -         ✅ The thickness of the cortex in relation to the nerve. -         ✅ Quick overview of the nerve's position (lingual, caudal, etc.). -         ✅ Visualization at two positions per side, so surgeons are prepared even if the SSO is performed differently than planned. By integrating these advanced visualizations into the surgical planning process, we're not just enhancing precision – we're safeguarding patient well-being. Discover how our VSP services can elevate your surgical outcomes. Reach out to us today!
