Dento-Alveolar distraction osteogenesis using rigid intra-oral tooth borne distraction device.
BACKGROUND The aim of this clinical prospective study is to apply and evaluate an approach to reduce the overall orthodontic treatment time, by means of dentoalveolar distraction osteogenesis to achieve rapid canine retraction using an indigenously developed intra-oral tooth-borne distraction device. MATERIALS & METHODS This study was carried out in the Department of Orthodontics and Dentofac...
متن کاملInitial Experience With a New Intraoral Midface Distraction Device
Maxillary hypoplasia that necessitates surgical advancement affects approximately 25% of patients born with cleft lip and palate. Syndromic conditions such as Crouzon may also be accompanied by significant maxillary hypoplasia. Severe maxillary hypoplasia can result in airway obstruction, malocclusion, proptosis, and facial disfigurement. For optimal stability, severe hypoplasia is best address...

A case of severe maxillary hypoplasia in a 21 years old male Thai patient with a complete unilateral cleft of primary and secondary palates treated by internal distraction osteogenesis for maxillary advancement is presented. Initial evaluation showed Class III malocclusion with total crossbite and Class III skeletal malrelationship. Two intraoral distractors were placed following a Le Fort I os...
متن کاملSuccessful Reconstruction of Nerve Defects Using Distraction Neurogenesis with a New Experimental Device
Introduction: Repair of peripheral nerve injuries is an intensive area of challenge and research in modern reconstructive microsurgery. Intensive research is being carried out to develop effective alternatives to the standard nerve autografting, avoiding its drawbacks. The aim of the study was to evaluate the effectiveness of a newly designed mechanical device for the reconstruction of the...
متن کاملThree-dimensional surgical planning for maxillary and midface distraction osteogenesis.
Computerized surgical planning protocols for distraction osteogenesis are still in their rudimentary phase. The authors have developed a system to plan distraction osteogenesis in craniofacial and maxillofacial surgery that uses three-dimensional computed tomography scans and computer simulation in a virtual reality environment. This involves the creation of a three-dimensional bone model of th...
