  1. SD: Standard Deviation. ROI: Region of Interest
  2. ROI 1: right region of the separated genial segment. ROI 2: left region of the separated genial segment. ROI 3: middle region of the separated genial segment. ROI 4: region selected in the right mandibular angulus. ROI 5: selected region in left mandibular angulus. ROI 6: healing area between the separated genial segment and mandibular corpus
  3. This ROI measurement was performed only to evaluate the healing of the area between the mandibular corpus and genial segment at the time-point of the T1. * Result of Friedman Repeated Measures Analysis of Variance on Ranks test. ** Results of All Pairwise Multiple Comparison Procedures (Student-Newman-Keuls Method). The same letters in the column indicate that there is no difference in pairwise comparison
