Segmental orthognathic surgery for Bolton discrepancy correction
In association with orthodontic treatment, orthognathic surgery can solve different types of malocclusion amongst dentofacial deformities. Bolton analysis is frequently used to measure the mesiodistal relationship between maxillary and mandibular teeth. When Bolton discrepancy is caused by excessive...

In association with orthodontic treatment, orthognathic surgery can solve different types of malocclusion amongst dentofacial deformities. Bolton analysis is frequently used to measure the mesiodistal relationship between maxillary and mandibular teeth. When Bolton discrepancy is caused by excessive anteroinferior dental volume, it can be corrected in different ways: selective interproximal dental stripping, changes in buccolingual or mesiodistal angulation of anterior teeth, mandibular incisor extraction or by creating space in the upper jaw between laterals and canines.
