[Rehabilitation of patients with asymmetrical maxillary deformations].
Observations of 31 patients aged 16-31 years (11 men and 20 women) with asymmetrical maxillary deformations showed that medical rehabilitation of this patient population requires a comprehensive orthodontic and surgical approach. Such an approach leads to good esthetic and functional results without relapses of the deformation. A modified method of maxillary osteotomy was used, taking into consideration the clinical manifestations of asymmetrical deformation. Effective surgical treatment implies thorough planning of the volume of intervention and reliable fixation of osteotomied maxillary complex, which helps rule out secondary deformations of facial skull. Purposeful timely orthodontic treatment essentially accelerates medical rehabilitation.
