    Summary
    This summary is machine-generated.

    Maxillary posterior hyperplasia, a common dento-facial deformity, is often linked to tongue volume and open bite. Simultaneous tongue reduction during Le Fort 1 osteotomy surgery can reduce post-operative relapse.

    Area of Science:

    • Dentistry
    • Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery
    • Orthodontics

    Context:

    • Maxillary posterior hyperplasia is a common dento-facial deformity.
    • Dento-alveolar origins are more frequent than skeletal origins.
    • A relationship exists between tongue volume and open bite severity.

    Purpose:

    • To investigate the efficacy of surgical correction for maxillary posterior hyperplasia.
    • To evaluate the impact of simultaneous tongue reduction on post-surgical relapse.
    • To assess the role of sliding genioplasty in profile improvement.

    Summary:

    • Surgical correction using Le Fort 1 osteotomy was performed for maxillary posterior hyperplasia.
    • Tongue reduction was performed simultaneously in 50% of patients.

  • Sliding genioplasty was occasionally used to enhance facial profile.
  • Post-surgical relapse was frequently observed in patients who did not undergo tongue reduction.

    • Impact:

    • Simultaneous tongue reduction during Le Fort 1 osteotomy may significantly reduce post-surgical relapse in patients with maxillary posterior hyperplasia.
    • Understanding the relationship between tongue volume and open bite is crucial for surgical planning.
    • This approach offers insights into managing complex dento-facial deformities.
