Abstract
Using a bone graft in the intersegmental gap of a sagittal split ramus osteotomy is considered an effective clinical method to secure the desirable intersegmental position because it helps to maintain the space with ease. Especially in cases with greater than 10-mm setback of the mandible, it prevents excessive condylar displacement.
