The sagittal split ramus osteotomy(SSRO) of the mandible has used one of the most popula methods for the correction of various dentofacial deformities, especially mandibular prognathism. In SSRO, there are produced bony gap following mandible setback because of mandibular flaring. For this reason, the condylar axis may be changed due to bony approximation both segment in three dimension more mesio-laterally. According to change of condylar position, the condition of TMJ structure are changed and change of TMJ symptoms are suggested theoretically, and the correction of malocclusion by SSRO may improve the TMJ symptoms by improvement of feeding difficulties. The pupose of this study was to determine relationship between expected alterations in condylar position and suggested TMJ symptoms produced by change of condylar position. TMJ symptoms of 15patients who had operated SSRO are checked at about postoperative 6 month ranging $5{sim}11$ month. Anterior-posterior position of condyle which was comparison preoperative with postoperative position, was classified 5 groups. The author tried to identify relationship between positional change of condyle and TMJ discomfort.
