Everyone wants to have a set of beautiful teeth. This is not only related to oral health, but also plays a vital role in one's image. Overbite is mostly caused by acquired factors such as bad breastfeeding posture, and it is also hereditary. This relatively serious tooth deformity makes many people concerned about the failure rate when undergoing surgical treatment. So, is the failure rate of overbite surgery high? Overbite is a relatively serious malocclusion. You are 20 years old and it cannot be corrected by conventional fixed orthodontic treatments, so you need orthognathic surgery. There are no complete statistical data on the success rate of orthognathic surgery, and the success of the surgery is also closely related to your dental condition and postoperative maintenance. Methods for treating underbite 1. Headgear and traction chin cup correction device Suitable for patients with early skeletal anterior crossbite and mandibular protrusion. It can be used in the late stage of deciduous teeth, the stage of replacement teeth or the early stage of permanent teeth. Can be used in conjunction with intraoral appliances such as occlusal splints and tongue spring orthodontics. 2. Front traction correction device It is suitable for early skeletal anterior crossbite with maxillary underdevelopment and mandibular protrusion, and can be used during the period of replacement teeth or the early stage of permanent teeth. 3. Functional orthosis For example, activator or Frankel type III. It is suitable for early skeletal anterior crossbite and functional anterior crossbite, and can be used in the period of tooth replacement, especially in the late stage of tooth replacement. 4. Class III traction correction device It is mainly used to adjust the mesio-maxillary relationship and is often used for early skeletal anterior crossbite. It can be used in the late stage of replacement teeth or the early stage of permanent teeth. The intraoral correction device can be a removable upper and lower occlusal pad corrector, or a fixed corrector, or a combination of the two. 5. Removable maxillary occlusal pad and tongue spring corrector It can be used to correct any anterior crossbite and can be used alone or in combination with other plastic surgery devices. 6. Fixed braces Both edgewise square wire arch braces and Begg braces can be used to correct anterior crossbite and are often used during the replacement or permanent tooth period. When using the Begg appliance, Class III traction should be performed instead of Class II traction, with a traction force of about 80 grams. 7. Correction of anterior crossbite in adults If it is an odontogenic anterior crossbite or a mild skeletal anterior crossbite, the above-mentioned correction devices with non-plastic force can be used for correction. If the anterior crossbite is combined with obvious skeletal deformity, combined orthodontic-orthognathic surgery treatment is required. |
