Fallbericht: Untersuchung, Dokumentation und Therapie einer Gesichtsasymmetrie infolge eines frühkindlichen Traumas*

Abstract: Präpubertäres Trauma wird oft als Ursache für ein asymmetrisches Unterkieferwachstum angesehen. Eine Reihe von vor und nach einem früh-kindlichen Trauma in der orofazialen Region aufgenommenen Fotografien lässt bei einer Patientin die Ausbildung einer dreidimensionalen dentofazialen Deformierung erkennen. Die Diagnostik und die kombinierte kieferorthopä-disch-kieferchirurgische Behandlungsplanung zur Korrektur sowohl der Gesichtsasymmetrie als auch der Dysgnathie werden diskutiert. AbstractPrepubertal trauma i… Show more

“…We suggest that if preferences for symmetry do represent an evolved adaptation, then it is not likely that the function is to provide marginal fitness benefits by choosing between relatively healthy individuals. Although small variations in asymmetry between largely healthy individuals may be functionally irrelevant in terms of signalling health, or cueing 'good genes', it remains the case that various genetic disorders [5,45] and pathological processes or trauma early in development result in large and easily visible anatomical asymmetries (for reviews, see [5,[46][47][48]). Consequently, preference for the absence of subtle asymmetry could reflect an overgeneralization from an aversion to gross asymmetries [49].…”
