Can dental maxillofacial deformity be corrected?
VerifiedHealing hearts, one patient at a time.
Dental maxillofacial deformity can be corrected, but the specific operation or correction method depends on the type of dental maxillofacial deformity, the mechanism of disease, and of course the patient's own expectations. If the skeletal dental maxillofacial deformity, then we try to do orthodontic, orthognathic surgery treatment. Of course, if only dental or only mild skeletal dental maxillofacial deformity, it can be treated by orthodontic treatment to obtain satisfactory results. One of the points we mentioned here is the expectation value expected by patients with maxillofacial deformities. If the expectation value is too high, then orthodontic treatment alone may not be able to achieve it, so it may still be necessary to do orthognathic combined treatment.
