Ortho-surgical Management of Severe Skeletal Class II Div 2 Malocclusion in Adult

Abstract: Skeletal Class II malocclusion is attributed to maxillary prognathism, mandibular retrognathism or combination of both. In adolescent cases, the treatment includes growth modulation with headgear or myofunctional appliances. However in adults, optimum esthetic and functional efficacy can be achieved by orthodontic-surgical combination.This case report describes a 21 years old post-pubertal male with severe skeletal Class II discrepancy with normal maxilla and retrognathic mandible. The case was treated with bi… Show more

“…4 Treatment modality for skeletal class II discrepancies involve growth modification, camofluage or combined Orthodontic orthognathic surgical treatment. 5 Current standards used for decision making in orthognathic surgical treatment planning are largely based on hard tissue parameters such as angle ANB > 9°, Pogonion-Zero meridian line >18mm and Gonion-Pogonion <70mm. 6,7 Orthodontic paradigm shift to the soft tissue, psychosocial impact of aesthetics and its role as successful treatment outcome requires significant consideration of profile.…”

“…In oral surgery clinics, malocclusion and associated facial bone deformities are common and primarily affect the appearance and occlusion of patients. According to previous studies, mandibular deficiency is a common phenomenon, particularly in developing adolescents, with a worldwide prevalence of 1.1-21.5% [1]. To correct mandibular deficiency, mandibular advancement is often performed via intraoral vertical ramus osteotomy (IVRO) and bilateral sagittal split osteotomy (BSSO) [2].…”

“…The treatment of severe dentofacial deformities in adult patients is challenging and arduous task for both orthodontist and oral surgeon. Treatment is difficult because of the skeletal and facial disharmony, absence of jaw growth and propensity to relapse, [2,3] Bilateral Sagittal Split Osteotomy is very popular and versatile procedure performed intraorally on mandibular body and ramus. Osteotomy is an indispensable surgical procedure for the correction of lower jaw deformities.…”
