Conditions studied: Dentofacial Deformities

In brief

"Dentofacial deformity refers to deviations from the norm of facial proportions and tooth ratios of such magnitude as to represent a disability." \[1\] These conditions afflicted two aspects of the patient's health: the first related to the functions performed by the stomatognathic apparatus (mastication, swallowing, phonation, etc...), the second related to the morphology of the face, which--by virtue of the severe disharmony of its parts--did not fully realize its function as an organ of relationships, leading the patient to high levels of psychological distress. The nature of the dentofacial deformities was mainly related to skeletal discrepancies between the maxillae, such that the malocclusion could not be resolved by orthodontic treatment alone. The resolution of these conditions required a perfect synergy between orthodontic therapy (aimed at dental alignment of the individual arches) and surgical therapy (aimed at morphological harmonization of the face and obtaining the correct occlusion).
