Orthodontic And Surgical Correction of Class-III Malocclusion With Excellence Facial Aesthetic Results- Case Report.
Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Dental and Medical Sciences (IOSR-JDMS) - Year 2017, Vol 16, Issue 12
Abstract
In skeletal Class III cases, it may be difficult to achieve an excellent occlusal outcome only with orthodontic treatment and to maintain a stable posttreatment occlusion. There are three main treatment options for skeletal Class III malocclusion: growth modification, dentoalveolar compensation, and orthognathic surgery. Growth modification should be initiated before the pubertal growth spurt; afterwards, only two options are possible.12 Thus, treatment of skeletal Class III malocclusion in an adult requires orthognathic surgery combined with conventional orthodontic treatment aiming to improve self-esteem and achieve normal occlusion and improvement of facial esthetics. There is little doubt that to achieve excellent treatment results in adult patient with multiple skeletal and dental problems require multidisciplinary approach. Orthodontist plays key role in coordinating orthodontic treatment with other treatment performed by specialist.
