Condylar remodelling in a severe class II deep bite dento-skeletal malocclusion treated with an ortho-surgical approach: A five-year follow-up case report.

Condylar displacement and remodelling are phenomena closely related to orthognathic surgery and critically involved in occlusal and skeletal stability. The aim of the present case report is to describe over time condylar displacement and surface remodelling after bilateral split sagittal osteotomy (BSSO) in an adult patient with severe class II skeletal malocclusion treated with ortho-surgical approach. A male of 21years comes to our observation.

Periodontal evaluation of palatally impacted maxillary canines treated by closed approach with ultrasonic surgery and orthodontic treatment: a retrospective pilot study.

Aim of this study is the evaluation of the periodontal status of impacted canines treated by closed approach with ultrasonic surgery and orthodontic treatment compared with contralateral spontaneously erupted teeth. The periodontal conditions of the teeth adjacent to the canines (lateral incisors and first premolar) were also considered. 17 patients (9 females and 8 males; mean age: 15.

Treatment of an upper impacted cuspid using ultrasonic surgery and a modified RPE. A case report.

This case report describes the possibility to use a modified rapid palatal expander like anchorage to reposition an included maxillary cuspid. Moreover it is enphasized the use of an ultrasonic device during surgery to expose the impacted tooth.
