Abstract

Introduction: Adult and young adult patients have been increasingly seeking for orthodontic treatments and almost all of them want it to be done by an aesthetic appliance with maximum invisibility. The lingual technique has emerged in the late 1970s and has now become a very viable alternative to perform orthodontic treatments, however, many cases of treatment or retreatment involve correction through orthognathic surgery. The surgical technique is more sedimented and simplified as a great aid in the correction of skeletal discrepancies. Objectives: This article aims to show the correction of malocclusion and discrepancy between dental arches, with the lingual orthodontic technique and the surgical association. Conclusion: It is possible to provide to the patient an adequate correction of malocclusion, maintaining the desired aesthetics through the lingual technique and orthognathic surgery
