title: [Surgical corrections of mandibular forced bites].
abstract: A forced bite results in displacement of the mandible and malposition of the condyles. The terminal hinge position is a useful point of reference in treatment planning for the surgical correction of forced bites, since it is, among others, independent of the occlusion. Thus, it provides an ideal condyle-fossa relation.
