Interventions

PROCEDURELandmarking Safety-zone

A safety-zone triangle for transbuccal incision is encased between three lines: the first is a line drawn from the ear tragus to the facial notch. The second is drawn from the outer eye canthus to the mandibular angle. The third is on the lower mandibular border.
