title: [Possibilities of orthodontic pretreatment].
abstract: Five practical cases are shown where orthodontic pretreatment preceded the rehabilitation. Most important for the success of such a mixed treatment is the teamwork between the 2 dentists and their understanding of the other's problems and limitations. A clear priority list is indispensable. As a general rule, the role of the orthodontist is subordinate to the prosthetic problems. The 5 cases are: a light and a severe anodontia, a distal bite with spaced protrusion of the upper anteriors, and a distal bite with circular and total nonocclusion, finally a lip, jaw and palatal cleft case. All patients are adult. In 3 cases an instrumental functional analysis was made.
