Abstract:
Objective:To evaluate the effect of internal distraction osteogenesis in the treatment of complicated teeth-maxillofacial deformity.Methods:Clinical data of 1 0 cases with complicated teeth-maxillofacial deformity were analyzed retrospectively.In the first stage,the patients were operated by internal distraction osteogenesis.In the second stage,the distractor was removed after 3 to 6 months of consolidation period,followed by other operation for further occlusal reconstruction.Results:All the operations were per-formed as planned.The distraction distance was 7 -70 mm.The distraction process was smooth in all the cases.Occlusion was recon-structed and the deformity was corrected by following operation satisfactorily.Conclusion:Internal distraction osteogenesis is effective in the treatment of complicated teeth-maxillofacial deformity for further occlusal reconstruction and functional repair.
