Final Records:
After 1 year and 2 months of active orthodontic treatment, we obtained a functional and stable result. The immediate
incisal guidance, bilateral cuspid rise, and proper maximal posterior occlusion assure a very good masticatory and TMJ
function. On the panoramic X-ray we see good root alignment, no root resorption, and the bone level on the distal
of the lateral (12) is improved relative to the beginning of treatment. The patient's three wisdom teeth will have to
be removed in the future. On the ceph tracing superimposition you can see the movement of the upper and lower
incisors, and that the lip support has remained unchanged. The patient chose not to proceed with a cosmetic
procedure to resolve the incisal wear on her upper centrals. |
