Mandibular advancement and reduction genioplasty.
This case report is presented in accordance with the specifications of the American Board of Orthodontics. Before treatment, the patient had a unilateral transverse discrepancy and dentoskeletal Class II malocclusion. Clinically, however, the profile was acceptable. She was treated with an orthodontic and orthognathic surgical approach. Interesting treatment-planning considerations included the existence of an eight-unit bridge and incisor periapical pathosis.
