Abstract

Skeletal protrusion pose problem to orthodontists as they can't be corrected by orthodontics alone. Anterior segmental osteotomy in association with orthodontia is the choice of treatment. A study was conducted in ten patients who underwent anterior segmental osteotomy. Purpose of the study was to evaluate soft and hard tissue changes after anterior segmental osteotomy. Changes were evaluated in frontal and lateral view with the help of soft and hard tissue parameters. Changes were assessed using lateral cephalogram and frontal photographs taken preoperatively and six months postoperatively. Anterior segmental osteotomy allows for functional and aesthetical correction with good success rate and minimal complication.
