Abstract
Facial analysis for chin deformities evaluates the perioral structures independently and their relationship to the entire face. Chin deformities in the absence of malocclusion can be treated by a genioplasty. Patient evaluation and preoperative planning and the operative technique for an osseogenioplasty are outlined with clinical reports to illustrate.
