Removes a non-cancerous tumor or cyst from the lower jaw, cutting the jawbone and taking away a section of it along with the lesion. That extent is needed when the growth has eaten into the bone or would simply return if it were only scooped out. Restoring the shape of the jaw, where that is needed, is done as further surgery.
