GONZALEZ ESPANGLER, Liuba; VELAZQUEZ BLEZ, Rodolfo; COMAS MIRABENT, Raquel Bibiana y CABRERA SANCHEZ, Teresa Virginia. Presurgical orthodontic treatment for the improvement of severe skeletal anomalies of the craneofacial complex. MEDISAN [online]. 2015, vol.19, n.4, pp. 516-528. ISSN 1029-3019.
With the present literature review elements are offered on the role of the presurgical orthodontic treatment in patients older than 19 years with marked skeletal anomalies of the craneofacial complex, who should be assisted by a multidisciplinary team for orthognatic surgery. In this respect, the work of the orthodontist is of extreme importance in the prognosis and planning of the surgical procedure in those who have no improvement with the orthodoncic treatment or with any other similar therapy. It is concluded that the detection and the early diagnosis by the orthodoncist of the different health areas in the second care, facilitate the use of correction techniques which provide better conditions, before the affected patient with these skeletal deformities receives a surgical orthognatic procedure
