Certain malocclusions have to be treated at an early age to avoid surgeries for the correction in the future. Introduction of functional appliances has reduced the elimination and correction of skeletal as well as dental discrepancies. Proper case selection taking into consideration skeletal and dental age with the use of various diagnostic aids helps us to identify and treat the malocclusions before it is too late. In this case series, we report three patients with skeletal jaw malrelationship treated with functional and orthopaedic appliances.
某些错颌畸形必须在早期进行治疗,以避免日后进行矫正手术。功能性矫治器的引入减少了骨骼和牙齿差异的消除和矫正。通过使用各种诊断辅助手段,综合考虑骨骼和牙齿年龄进行恰当的病例选择,有助于我们在为时已晚之前识别和治疗错颌畸形。在本病例系列中,我们报告了三名使用功能性和矫形矫治器治疗的骨骼性颌骨关系异常患者。
