Does Ultrasonic Bone Scalpel Improve Surgical Outcomes in SSRO?
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Conventional and Bone Scalpel for Maxillofacial Abnormalities. Completed, enrolled 40 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
The conventional saw compared with the piezo surgery in BSSO to evaluate cutting time, surgery duration, amount of bleeding. The purpose of this study was to answers following clinical questions: Is ultrasonic bonescalpel effective osteotomy like conventional bur in BSSO? and 2) Does it reduce operative parameter like bleeding, duration, lingual split pattern? 3) Does it reduce postoperative morbidity after BSSO.
Study Details
Timeline
Interventions
In conventional group, contralateral side mandibular osteotomies were performed with Lindeman and round bur (Karl Storz, Tuttlingen, Germany)
In ultrasonic device group, osteotomies one side of the mandible were performed unilaterally using an ultrasonic bone scalpel (BoneScalpel; Misonix, Farmingdale, NY) with a serrated standard blade
