Algorithm of Complex Rehabilitation of Patients With Iatrogenic Occlusal Disorders Combined With Vertical Malocclusion

Abstract

The aim: To propose the algorithm of complex rehabilitation of patients with iatrogenic occlusal disorders combined with vertical malocclusion and prove its efficiency. Materials and methods: 55 patients with iatrogenic occlusal disorders combined with vertical malocclusion aged from 23 to 47 years old (mean age 36.1±5.2 years) including 32 females and 23 males were examined at Dental Medical Center of Bogomolets National Medical University during 2019-2021 years. All patients before and 6 months after treatment underwent clinical and laboratory examination, X-ray, electromyography, T-Scan Digital Occlusal Analysis. Results: In all 3 groups of patients we observed complete disappearance or significant reduction of complaints and symptomatic manifestations after 6 months of complex rehabilitation. Conclusions: Our study showed that the proposed algorithm of complex rehabilitation of patients with iatrogenic occlusal disorders combined with vertical malocclusion, which provides a multidisciplinary and individualized approach, improves the efficiency of orthodontic treatment of such patients and significantly reduces the duration of treatment in all 3 groups. This sequence of diagnostic and treatment measures gives the best opportunities for the patient to achieve maximum functional and aesthetic result.
