Microosteoperforations and use of reverse face mask as treatment of skeletal class III. Case report
Main Article Content
Abstract
Introduction: Malocclusions have repercussions on the functional aspects of the maxillo-mandibular complex. There are several factors to determine the treatment plan of these malocclusions, such as age, skeletal maturation, habits, and genetics, among others. Objective: To correct skeletal and dental Class III problems due to maxillary hypoplasia, by using a reverse maxillary protraction mask and microosteoperforations, an efficient treatment to obtain function and esthetics. Case presentation: A male patient attended the clinic, aged 12 years and 10 months, skeletal class III, brachyfacial, with skeletal and dental anterior crossbite, slightly enlarged lower facial third, bilateral molar and canine class III, with narrow airways and no relevant past medical history. The orthopedic treatment plan included a Hyrax screw with bands in maxillary molars and premolars, with the use of a reverse face mask for 10 months, microosteoperforations with 1.5mm x 8mm mini-implants to stimulate bone-dental movement. Orthodontic treatment was performed without extractions, with a passive self-ligation system with tubes in first and second molars. As a result of treatment, dental and facial results were satisfactory. A normal maxillo-mandibular relationship with molar and canine class I and adequate overjet and overbite were achieved; the maxillary hypoplasia was corrected, and a downward and backward rotation of the mandible occurred. The anterior crossbite was also corrected, and coincident midlines were obtained. Conclusions: Adequate treatment of these malocclusions may avoid extractions or orthognathic surgery. The results are also determined by the patient's cooperation.
