On this video Eppley claims that jaw implants are superior to ching wing osteotomies:
He says that the reason for this is that the cut doesnt reach the back of the mandible, while it's true that sometimes the cut doesn't extend all the way to the back of the jaw, it's definitely possible to do so.
Here you can see a result of a Chin Wing Osteotomy, as you can see the part of the jaw that Eppley said is not possible to augment was augmented:
This is the type of osteotomy cut Eppley was talking about on the video:
The reason why he advocates implants and wants to make you think that you can't augment the back of the jaw with a Chin Wing Osteotomy is because he has more experience with implants, for him it is far easier to screw an implant on your jaw than to perform a Chin Wing Osteotomy.
This is why you need to do your own research about surgeries.
