FFF is a widely used method and can provide an extensive flap to reconstruct the mandible, especially those affected by ORN or MRONJ. If an infection occurs after surgery, appropriate antibiotic changes should be made through cooperation with the infectious medicine department. Therefore, FFF is a well-established and recommended method even in cases of challenging reconstruction.
