Clinical observation of orthodontic and orthognathic methods in treatment of 25 patients with skeletal malocclusion

Objective:To explore the treatment method for skeletal malocclusion and provide references for clinic.Methods:Twenty-five patients with skeletal malocclusion were treated with orthodontic and orthognathic means.The first step,the therapeutic schedules were formulated.The compensation of teeth was removed for adjusting dentural defect curve,then orthognathic surgery was performed for all cases.Finally the dentitions were adjusted by orthodontic treatment for 2 months.Results:The facial contour of 25 cases were significantly improved,and occludingrelation was good.The angles of SNB and ANB were greatly changed,and there was significant difference before and after the treatment(P0.05 and P0.01).Conclusions:Combination of orthodontic and orthognathic treatment is a good clinical method for skeletal malocclusion.
