Localisation of the Infraorbital and Mental Foramen in Orthognathic Surgery: a CBCT Study.

During maxillary osteotomy, there is a potential risk of damaging the infraorbital neurovascular bundle located 21.40 mm above the ANS. To mitigate the risk of IOF injury, caution is advised, particularly when retracting the flap below a 30-degree fan shape within a 30 to 40 mm radius centred on the ANS and a 45-degree fan shape within a 20 to 30 mm radius centred on the Pog. Special attention is warranted during flap elevation in this specified area.
