Case report: facial asymmetry and early condylar fracture

T Yamashiro et al. Angle Orthod. 1998 Feb.

Abstract

This report describes the surgical-orthodontic treatment of two adult females who exhibited dentofacial asymmetry. Their medical histories included early condylar fractures. Growth was disturbed on the fractured side, resulting in mandibular deviation and maxillary canting. Following the completion of growth, the asymmetries were corrected by combined orthodontic-surgical treatment. The treatment planning procedures and the results are presented.
