UNDERSTANDING OF FACIAL BUTTRESSES AND PRECURSORS
Keywords:
Facial buttresses, facial anatomy, facial skeletal structures, maxillofacial surgery, craniofacial development, clinical implications.Abstract
This article delves into the intricate aspects of facial buttresses and their precursors, exploring their anatomical significance and clinical implications. By combining a comprehensive literature review with a detailed analysis of methodologies and results, this study aims to contribute to a deeper understanding of facial skeletal structures. The findings presented in this article provide valuable insights into the complexities of facial architecture and its role in various surgical and clinical contexts.
