Summary
Achieving orthodontic case acceptance is difficult, particularly for adult males. Surgically accelerated orthodontics offers an alternative, combining Kois principles, Accelerated Osteogenic Orthodontics (AOO), and lingual braces for successful treatment with good aesthetics.
Area of Science:
- Orthodontics and Periodontics
- Interdisciplinary Dental Treatment
Background:
- Orthodontic case acceptance remains a challenge, especially for adult males concerned with aesthetics.
- Surgically accelerated orthodontics presents a viable alternative to traditional braces, addressing patient concerns.
- Lingual braces offer a discreet orthodontic solution for esthetically conscious patients.
Observation:
- This case report details an interdisciplinary approach to orthodontic treatment.
- Kois diagnostic principles were integrated with surgical and orthodontic interventions.
- The patient presented with concerns that traditional orthodontics could not adequately address.
Findings:
- The combined approach of Kois principles, Accelerated Osteogenic Orthodontics (AOO), and lingual braces led to successful treatment outcomes.
- Satisfactory esthetics were maintained throughout the orthodontic treatment period.
- This method proved effective for a challenging adult male orthodontic case.
Implications:
- This interdisciplinary strategy enhances orthodontic case acceptance in challenging patient populations.
- Accelerated Osteogenic Orthodontics (AOO) combined with lingual braces offers a patient-centered solution.
- The findings support the integration of advanced techniques for improved esthetic orthodontic results.
