Abstract
Orthodontic therapy is best carried out in a normal skeletal and soft tissue environment. In patients requiring orthognathic surgery, it is suggested that there are advantages in correcting the skeletal and soft tissue elements as early as possible, and to orthodontically control the occlusion post-operatively. This results in a shorter overall treatment time due to more biologically favourable tooth movement, more predictable occlusal results and better management by the orthodontist. The clinical benefits of post-operative orthodontics are outlined.
