A combination of oral surgery and orthodontic measures is required to correct malocclusion in adults. In such cases, the skeletal jaw bases are surgically brought into an optimal relationship to each other, while the rows of teeth of the two jaws are adapted to each other through orthodontic measures. Orthognathic surgery requires close collaboration between the orthodontist and the oral surgeon.

Start of treatment
Correction of underdevelopment of the upper jaw by advancement of the upper jaw using a distractor and subsequent surgical repositioning.

Example B
Start of treatment
