Re: re: Mandibular stability using sliding compared with conventional four-hole plates for fixation after bilateral sagittal split ramus osteotomy for mandibular setback

In response to Jain and Shetty,1 we would like to apologise for the errors in our paper that was published in your journal recently.2 The sentence: "These authors all used four-hole sliding plates to fix the mandibular bony segments" should have read: "These authors all used four-hole plates to fix the mandibular bony segments". It referred to earlier studies by Abeltins et al,3 Ballon et al,4 and Landes and Ballon,5 in which they all used four-hole plates to fix proximal and distal segments of mandible.
