It is more common between the third and fifth decade of life, with predominance in the left upper jaw area due to the Uncomfortable work position and poor visualization. There are different treatments that can be used for this closure, such is the case of closure with a pedicled Bichat bag because one of the main advantages of this technique is the excellent blood supply of the flap, the lower morbidity of the donor site and the preservation of the normal anatomy of the oral mucosa.
