Abstract

The authors treated a case of bimaxillary dentoalveolar protrusion corrected by anterior segmental osteotomies: As presurgical treatment & process, closing of the upper anterior spacing with fixed appliances was worked out, cephalometric predicition & model surgery was done, and fabrication of intra-arch acrylic resin splints were made. It was not necessary to make an intermaxillary fixation with wire after surgery. Only intramaxillary fixation of anterior retracted mobile segment with resin plate was required for 8 weeks. After surgical treatment, leveling of the upper and lower arch with rectangular arch wire were accomplished as the Intrusion of anterior teeth proceeded. We will continue to improve the class II molar relationship by using class II elastics and have a good occlusiion through the orthodontic treatment.
