- Abstract
- Orthodontics in combination with orthognathic surgery is a possibility today for correcting sagittal, vertical and transversal dysmorphosis. To do this, orthodontic preparation before surgery is necessary. In the sagittal plane, dental compensations should be removed. In the vertical plane, levelling of a severe mandibular SPEE curve should be accomplished postsurgically, and transverse coordination obtained. Orthodontic preparation is very specific to the type of dysmorphosis: class II malocclusion, class III malocclusion or in open bite. Postsurgical orthodontic treatment is used to finalize tooth alignment as in conventional orthodontics.
