Correction of Severe Dental Malocclusion: A Case Report
Received Date: Feb 08, 2024 / Published Date: Mar 07, 2024
Abstract
Dental malocclusion is a common condition characterized by misalignment or incorrect relation between the teeth of the upper and lower dental arches. This case report presents the management of a patient with severe dental malocclusion, highlighting the orthodontic and surgical interventions required to correct the problem. The treatment approach included comprehensive orthodontic treatment followed by surgical correction of skeletal discrepancies. The successful correction of malocclusion not only improved the patient’s dental aesthetics but also reduced the risk of tooth decay and relieved excessive pressure on the temporomandibular joint. This case underscores the importance of interdisciplinary collaboration between orthodontists and oral surgeons in managing complex malocclusion cases.
