Title: Endoscopically assisted intraoral mandibular distraction osteogenesis. Author: Hierl T, Hemprich A. Journal: Int J Oral Maxillofac Surg; 2001 Aug; 30(4):339-41. PubMed ID: 11518359.

Since the introduction of this new technique operation time and ease have been significantly improved.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
