Surgical correction of mandibular prognathism.

Procedures used in the correction of certain forms of mandibular prognathism are described.

Citanest Forte--its use in oral surgery.

A clinical evaluation of Citanest Forte (brand of prilocaine HCL) was carried out on 3,000 oral surgery patients to determine the effectiveness and safety of the drug. Citanest Forte has been found to be a useful local anesthetic, and the results of this study would indicate that it can be effectively and safely substituted for other local anesthetic solutions currently in use for all routine oral surgery procedures.
