    Summary
    This summary is machine-generated.

    Supracrestal fiberotomy surgically divides gingival and transseptal fibers around corrected rotated teeth. This procedure complements, but does not replace, standard orthodontic retention methods.

    Area of Science:

    • Orthodontics and Periodontal Surgery

    Background:

    • Gingival and transseptal fibers can cause relapse of rotated teeth after orthodontic correction.
    • Surgical intervention may be necessary to address these persistent fiber attachments.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To detail the surgical technique of supracrestal fiberotomy for corrected rotated teeth.
    • To discuss the rationale, applications, indications, and contraindications of this procedure.

    Main Methods:

    • Description of the surgical technique to sever supracrestal fibers around orthodontically treated rotated teeth.
    • Discussion of clinical considerations and patient selection.

    Main Results:

    • The supracrestal fiberotomy technique effectively addresses fiber-related relapse in rotated teeth.

  • The procedure is presented as an adjunct, not a replacement, for conventional retention.

    • Conclusions:

    • Supracrestal fiberotomy is a valuable surgical adjunct for maintaining orthodontic correction of rotated teeth.
    • Proper patient selection and understanding of indications/contraindications are crucial for successful outcomes.
