Orthodontic and surgical treatment of patients with congenital unilateral and bilateral mandibulofacial dysostosis.

AIM: Presentation of results following therapy of patients with different forms of mandibulofacial dysostosis.

MATERIAL AND METHODS: Case reports of four patients, two with unilateral and two with bilateral mandibulofacial dysostosis, are presented. The symptoms and the problems involved in treatment are described.

RESULTS: Protracted treatment resulted in improved facial symmetry, a harmonized profile, and acceptable occlusion.

CONCLUSION: The rehabilitation of patients suffering from congenital facial malformations such as mandibulofacial dysostosis demands an experienced team of orthodontists and maxillofacial surgeons as well as persistence on the part of the patients and their families if good esthetic and functional results are to be achieved.
