This case report details using intraoral mechanics to correct non-parallel facial planes, improving orthodontic outcomes. The study outlines a protocol prioritizing cranial and occlusal planes for precise dental alignment.

Area of Science:

  • Orthodontics
  • Craniofacial Surgery

Background:

  • Facial asymmetry and non-parallel planes present complex orthodontic challenges.
  • Current protocols often address cranial and occlusal planes initially.

Observation:

  • This case report focuses on correcting non-parallel eye, ear, and occlusal planes.
  • Intraoral mechanics are employed to achieve facial plane parallelism.

Findings:

  • A systematic approach prioritizes cranial and occlusal planes, establishing a treatment template.
  • Maxillary arch expansion (transverse or sagittal) accommodates dentition.
  • Subsequent steps include TMJ positioning, correcting ramus deficiencies, and establishing posterior vertical dimension.

Implications:
