    Summary

    Maxillary surgery, combined with orthodontics, effectively corrects dentofacial deformities, improving occlusion and aesthetics. This collaborative approach offers successful outcomes for various conditions, enhancing patient quality of life.

    Area of Science:

    • Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery
    • Orthodontics
    • Dentofacial Deformities

    Background:

    • Increased use of maxillary surgery in recent years.
    • Goal of achieving optimal occlusion and esthetics through combined surgical and orthodontic treatment.
    • Importance of interdisciplinary collaboration between orthodontists and oral surgeons.

    Observation:

    • Maxillary osteotomies (anterior, posterior, total) are key procedures.
    • Conditions treatable include maxillary protrusion/retrusion, deep/open bites, lip imbalance, and asymmetries.
    • Limitations of relying solely on orthodontic treatment for severe deformities.

    Findings:

    • Well-managed orthognathic surgical methods demonstrate a high success rate.
    • Collaborative treatment planning is crucial for successful outcomes.
    • Maxillary surgery significantly expands treatment options for complex dentofacial issues.

    Implications:

    • Orthodontic treatment alone is insufficient for many patients with severe dentofacial deformities.
    • Integration of surgical procedures enhances the scope of orthodontic practice.
    • Realistic evaluation of outcomes is essential for continuous improvement in patient care.
