Middle-third facial osteotomies: their use in the correction of acquired and developmental dentofacial and  craniofacial deformities.
A method to describe middle-third dentofacial and craniofacial deformities systematically and more specifically is presented. Those middle-third dentofacial and craniofacial deformities that occur most frequently are discussed. Eight cases illustrate the methods of clinical, cephalometric, and occlusal evaluation, as well as the various surgical approaches and results of treatment.
