A method of surgical treatment of patients with upper retro- and micrognathia is proposed, consisting in improving the fixation of osteotomied maxillary complex. Implantation of carbonic ceramics behind the maxillary tubercles and osteosynthesis of bone fragments with titanium miniplates helps do without prolonged intermaxillary fixation and permits exercise in the early postoperative period, thus cutting down the invalidity period. Analysis of the results attained in 14 patients showed no relapses of maxillary deformation and a stable functional and esthetic effect.
