The purpose behind the innovation of modified nasoalveolar moulding appliance was to achieve simultaneous anteroposterior and transverse correction in bilateral cleft cases with minimal vomeroid bending. This paper presents a 3D Versascrew appliance that has been used for presurgical nasoalveolar moulding in a 15-day-old neonate with bilateral cleft. Treatment was initiated at 30 days and continued for 90 days following which mild expansion of posterior maxilla with establishment of arch continuity and concomitant improvement in nasal morphology was achieved towards the end.
改良型鼻牙槽塑形矫治器创新背后的目的是在双侧唇腭裂病例中以最小的犁骨弯曲实现前后向和横向的同步矫正。本文介绍了一种3D Versascrew矫治器,该矫治器已用于一名15天大的双侧唇腭裂新生儿的术前鼻牙槽塑形。治疗在30天时开始,持续90天,最终实现了上颌后部的轻度扩展,建立了牙弓连续性,并同时改善了鼻形态。
