Zusammenfassung:The stability of results using bone plates for skeletal stabilization and porous block hydroxyapatite implants as a bone graft substitute were evaluated in maxillary downgrafts, maxillary advancements, and modified Le-Fort III midface advancements. The records of 24 patients with >5 mm of forward or downward movement were evaluated cephalometrically, analyzing the presurgical, immediate postsurgical, and longest follow-up radiographs. The 11 maxillary downgraft, 14 maxillary advancement, and three midface advancement procedures all showed
