“…24 In this study, TMJ sequelae were found in where remodelling and compensatory mechanisms fail to establish morphological harmony. [42][43][44] Facial asymmetry can be related to facial nerves sequelae (16.1%), with or without teeth sequelae as direct or indirect damage. 45 The incidence of facial nerve weakness as a consequence of the surgical procedure must be considered, as stated by Renapurkar et al, 7 and it can be a bias in this study.…”

The incidence of orofacial injuries resulting from a traumatic event has increased over recent decades 1,2 and it occurs worldwide, despite presenting different epidemiological data. 2 Orofacial trauma can encompass, isolated or not, several anatomical regions, such as the face, teeth and temporomandibular joint (TMJ), which is one of the most complex joints in the human body. 1 Although the history

“…1,2 Minor asymmetries of the human skeleton are common in the general population and usually have no esthetic or functional significance. 3 Moderate to severe asymmetries can be easily noticed 3 and these have undesired effects on patient's developing identity 1 and have direct impact on the patient's social life.…”

Correction of class III facial asymmetries is still a major problem in need of an adequate solution. Prominent abnormalities of the facial structures play an important role in a growing individual's developing identity. Class III skeletal asymmetries are treated with a combination of orthodontic and orthopedic mechanics in growing individuals. In adulthood, correction of the asymmetries usually requires complex surgical procedures. In this case report treatment strategies of class III facial asymmetries are described.

“…Skolnick u. Mitarb. [20] fanden in einer Stichprobe von 109 kieferorthopädischen und kieferorthopädisch-chirurgischen Patienten einen statistisch signifikanten Zusammenhang zwischen präpubertärem Trauma und dem röntgenologischen Nachweis einer mandibulären Asymmetrie. Diese Studie steht in Einklang mit früheren Arbeiten [21,22], die ebenfalls einen Zusammenhang zwischen präpubertärem Trauma und mandibulärer Asymmetrie vermutet hatten.…”

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 is often implicated as the cause of asymmetric growth of the mandible. A series of photographs taken before and after early childhood injury to the orofacial complex illustrates the development of a three-dimensional dentofacial deformity in a patient. The diagnosis and combined surgical orthodontic treatment plan to correct the facial asymmetry and malocclusion are discussed.
