Orthodontics and Dentofacial orthopedics
Orthodontics and Dentofacial orthopedics

The area and specialty of dentistry concerned with the
supervision, guidance and correction of the growing
or mature dentofacial structures, including those
conditions that require movement of teeth or
correction of malrelationships and malformations of
their related structures and the adjustment of
relationships between and among teeth and facial bones
by the application of forces and/or the stimulation
and redirection of functional forces within the
craniofacial complex.
Orthodontics and Dentofacial orthopedics

Major responsibilities of orthodontic practice include
the diagnosis, prevention, interception and
treatment of all forms of malocclusion of the teeth and
associated alterations of their surrounding structures;
the design, application and control of functional and
corrective appliances; and the guidance of the dentition
and its supporting structures to attain and maintain
optimal occlusal relations, physiologic function and
esthetic harmony of facial and cranial structures.
What is Dentofacial Deformity ?
Dentofacial deformity

A malformation of the teeth, jaws and/or face
characterized by disharmonies of size, form
and/or function. The term encompasses
problems such as malocclusion, cleft lip and
palate and other skeletal or soft tissue
anomalies, or syndromes that involve the face
and the dentoalveolar complex.

Dr Sarver:
Malocclusion of teeth is not disease ,
rather, it is a disability with a potential
influence on physical and mental health.
Orthodontics
— current principles and techniques
2000 By Graber
Reason for orthodontics
1. To improve dentofacial appearance.
2. To correct the occlusal function of the teeth
3. To eliminate occlusion that could damage the
long-term health of the teeth and periodontium
四、 standard and target
1、 changes
of target
Crowed,irregular and protruding teeth have
been a problem for some individuals since
antiquity,and attempts to correct this
disorder go back at least to 1000 BC.primitive
orthodontic appliance have been found in
both Greek and Etruscan matrials.
1850 the first texts that
systematically described
orthodontics appeared,the
most notable being Norman
Kingsley’s Oral
Deformities.Kingsley who had
a tremendous influence on
American dentistry in the
latter half of the nineteeth
century,was among the first to
use extroral force to correct
protruding teeth.He was also a
pioneer in the treatment of
celft palate and related
problems.
Their emphasis in orthodontics remaind the
alignment of the teeth and the correction of facial
proportions. Little attention was paid to the dental
occlusion.In an era when an intact dentition was a
rarity,the details of occlusal relationships were
considered unimportant.
Edward H Angle can be
credited with much of the
development of a concept of
occlusion in the natural
dentition.His increasing
interest in dental occlusion
and in the treatment
necessary to obtain normal
occlusion led directly to his
development of orthodontis
as a specialty,with himself as
the “father of modern
orthodontics.”
The publication of Angle’s
classification of
malocclusion in the 1890s
was an important step in
the development of
orthodontics because it not
only subdivided major
types of malocclusion but
also included the first
clear and simple definition
of normal occlusion in the
natural dentition.If this
molar relationship existed
and the teeth were
arranged on a smoothly
curving line of occlusion.
Angle`s classification of malocclusion
Orthodontics was no longer just the alignment of
irregular teeth.Angle and his followers strongly
opposed extraction for orthodontic purpose.With the
emphasis on dental occlusion that
followed,however,less attention came to be paid to
facial proportions and esthetics.
As time passed,it became clear that even an
excellent occlusion was unsatisfactory if it was
achieved at the expense of proper facial
proportions.Not only were there esthetic
problems,it often proved impossible to maintain
an occlusal relationship.Extraction of teeth was
reintroduced into orthodontics in the 1930s to
enhance facial esthetics and achieve better
stability of the occlusal relationships.
Cephalometric radiography enabled orthodontists
to measure the changes in tooth and jaw positions
produced by growth and treatment.These radiographs
made it clear that many malocclusions resulted from
faulty jaw relationships,not just malposed teeth.By use
of cephalometrics,it also was possible to see that jaw
growth could be altered by orthodontic treatment.
As the 21st century begins,orthodontics
differs from what was done previously in
three important ways:
⑴ there is more emphasis now on
dental and facial esthetics, and less on
details of dental occlusion.
⑵ patients now expect and are granted a
greater degree of involvement in planning
treament。No longer is it appropriate for the
paternalistic doctor to simply tell patients what
treament they should have.
computer simulation
before
post-treatment
⑶ orthodontics now is offered much
frequently to older patients as part of a
multidisciplinary treament plan involing
other dental and medical specialties。
（Multidisciplinary Treatment ）
（Interdisciplinary Treatment ）
The goal is not necessarily the best possible
dental occlusion or facial esthetics but the best
chance for long-term maintenance of the
dention.This increased emphasis on treatment
coordinated with other dentists has the effect of
integrating orthodontics back into the main
stream of dentistry,from which Angle’s
teachings had tended to separate it.

2. Variability
Everyone is not alike in the way that
they grow as in everyting else.It can be
difficult but clinically very important to
decide whether an individual is merely at
the extreme of the normal variation or
falls outside the normal range.
Variability
Racial and ethnic differences
 Gender
 Sickness
 nutrition
 Timing factor -Late/early maturers
 Problems with growth (hormones or genetics)

3. Timing
Variability in growth arises in
several ways:from normal variation,from
timing effects.Variation in timing arises
because the same event happens for
different individuals at different times.
developmental age and chronologic age
Timing Variation
Early, average, and late matuerers
 Chronological age vs. Developmental age

4. Rapid phase of growth and development
Rapid and slow phase of craniofacial
growth and development is close to rapid
and slow phase of body growth and
development .
Why do we assess growth?
To determine optimum time for treatment
(growth modification and surgery)
 to determine the amount of growth left
 to determine type of growth

5. Growth site and Growth center
A site of growth is merely a location at
which growth occurs,whereas a center is a
location at which independent (genetically
controlled) growth occurs.All growth
centers also are growth sites, whereas the
reverse is not true.
Growth Center and Growth Site
For example, it is now known that the sutures
between the membranous bones of the cranium
and the maxilla that previously were considered
as primary growth centers, actually are mere
sites of growth.
Questions

Do you know the hazards of Dentofacial
deformities?
Orthodontic treatment goal?

individual normal occlusion？
What is the growth pattern?
What is the growth site and growth center?


“V”shaped osteogenesis phenomenon
Enlow, Proposed the "V"-shaped Principle：
Many facial bone and cranium have a "V" shaped
structure . There are bone apposition in the medial
"V"-shape and bone absorption , lateral. So "V" shape
move from one location to another , while all have
increased in diameter.
The way of “V”shaped
bone growth
When things go wrong
Congenital craniofacial malformations: cleft
lip/palate, syndromes (Apert, Crouzon,
etc..), craniosynostosis
 Non-syndromic craniosynostosis
 Trauma
 Ankylosis
 Juvenile rheumatoid arthritis

When things go wrong

Trauma

Blow to one side of
the mandible may
fracture the condylar
process on the
opposite side
pull of the lateral
pterygoid muscle
distracts the condylar
fragment including all
the cartilage =
resorption occurs
五、Theories of growth and development
It is a truism that growth is strongly influnced by
genetic factor.In order to understand the etiologic
processes of malocclusion and dentofacial deformity,it
is necessary to learn how facial growth is influncend
and controlled.Exactly what determines the growth of
the jaws,however,remains unclear and continus to be
the subject of intensive research.
• Bone theory
It implies that genetic
control is expressed directly
at the level of the bone,and
therefore its locus should be
the periosteum。

Cartilage theory
Genetic control is expressed in the
cartilage,while bone responds passively to
being displaced.This indirect genetic
control is called epigenetic.

Soft tissue matrix theroy
Genetic control is mediated to a large extent
outside the skeletal system and that growth of both
bone and cartilage is controlled
epigenetically,occurring only in response to s
signal from other tissues.
In contemporary thought, the truth is to be found
in some synthesis of the second and third
theories,while the first ,though it was the dominant
view until 1960s,has largerly been discarded.
