Dentofacial malformation refers to the abnormal jaw size and morphology caused by abnormal jaw development, abnormal relationship between upper and lower jaws and other craniofacial bones, and accompanying abnormal jaw-tooth relationship, oral and maxillofacial system function and facial morphology. The purpose of orthognathic surgery is to correct the dislocated teeth, adjust the disharmony between the dental arch and the dental jaw, eliminate the interference of the dental jaw, arrange the dentition, eliminate the compensatory inclination of the teeth, make the bone cutting segment move smoothly to the designed correction position during the operation, and establish a good dental jaw relationship.
Treatment steps: formulate the combined treatment plan of orthognathic orthodontics: improve the examination, including maxillofacial X-ray examination, oral panoramic film, frontal and lateral skull film and maxillofacial three-dimensional CT examination. ECT examination is needed for patients with partial jaw deformity, and MRI examination of temporomandibular joint is needed for patients with Angle Class Ⅱ malocclusion. Orthodontists and orthodontists need to discuss and make treatment plans with patients according to the examination results.
