Abstract
We report a modification of the operation of mandibular release or 'visor drop down'. It allows more accurate repositioning and more permanent fixation of the genioglossus, geniohyoid, and digastric muscles using a small anterior osteotomy. We hope that this more accurate and reliable repositioning will give improved outcomes in terms of speech, chewing, and swallowing.
