Abstract
Functional genioplasty is indicated to correct excessive lower anterior facial height. Michelet's surgical technique is commonly used for these indications because of improvement of the stability of the fixation of the bone. The authors present a modified genioplasty of Michelet's technique with preservation of suprahyoid muscles' insertions.
