maxilla :
		
		
	
	
		 
	
mandible :
		 
	
		 
	
lefort 1-3 :
		 
	
modified lefort 3 is basically lefort 3 minus the lefort 1 area
bsso and ivro :
		 
	     
		 
	
		 
	
these are the basic cuts. you can just cut the maxilla or mandibular or do both at the same time (double jaw surgery).
since a maxilla or mandible can be recessed despite having a fine bite you can get jaw surgery with a fine bite (even though it might be necessary to "create" an over/bite before surgery in some cases through distraction or implants).
you can move the jaw forward, backward and you can even rotate (clockwise or counterclockwise) them
		 
	
		 
	
basically:
clockwise rotation = occlusal plane (angle) becomes higher (more vertical)
counter clockwise rotation = occlusal plane (angle) becomes lower (more horizontal)
		 
	
zygomatic sandwich osteotomy:
(big difference to a modified lefort 3 - cant make your zygos more project since it only moves the bone more to the "side")
		 
	
jaw (angle) reduction surgery :
		 
	
		 
	
genioplasty:
		 
	
		 
	
chin wing
