CASE REPORT

Treatment of Skeletal Class III Malocclusion with the Biofunctional System

Volume 49 : Number 11 : Page 717 : Nov 2015

When a skeletal Class III malocclusion is diagnosed early enough, the preferred treatment is orthopedic, involving maxillary traction with facemasks - often combined with rapid maxillary expansion - followed by orthodontic correction using Class III elastics. If the problem is not diagnosed until the permanent dentition, however, the treatment options are limited to compensatory or surgical-orthodontic therapy. Surgical treatment may produce the most esthetic results, but is less commonly performed because of its risks and expense.

Rapid Canine Retraction by Distraction of the Periodontal Ligament

Volume 50 : Number 3 : Page 0 : Mar 2016

Various methods have been proposed to accelerate orthodontic tooth movement, including local injection of prostaglandin; supplementation with vitamin D; stimulation of periodontal tissue remodeling with vibratory forces, pulsed electromagnetic fields, electrical currents, or low-energy laser devices; and surgical procedures such as corticotomy, alveolar distraction osteogenesis, or periodontal distraction. To date, the most complete body of evidence is for "surgery first" techniques, followed by low-level laser application and corticotomy. More comprehensive studies are needed, even for these methods.
