摘要：

Esthetic improvement of masseter muscle hypertrophy and the protruding angles of the mandible can be achieved only by surgery.(1,2) To obtain a satisfactory result, not only reduction of the masseter muscle, but also sufficient removal of the protruding mandibular angle is required. However, it is extremely difficult to remove bone at the angle by an intraoral approach due to the limited view and operation access. This report describes a method for removal of the angle by decortication of the mandible.
