Cleft Lip and Palate: LeFort I Distraction with Halo and Hybrid Internal Maxillary Distractors
2021, Clinics in Plastic SurgeryCitation Excerpt :This distraction system utilizes both bone and dental anchorage28 and provides stable maxillary advancement in patients with severe hypoplasia of the lower midface. In addition the technique is relatively simple, with low morbidity, predictable, and has shown stable long-term results.21,22,25,29 The benefits of distraction for correction of severe maxillary hypoplasia in patients with a cleft are well appreciated, but the benefits and limitations of internal versus external devices remain topics of active debate.

2019, Journal of Cranio-Maxillofacial SurgeryCitation Excerpt :Until now a lot of studies have proven that craniofacial morphology affects the extent of the pharyngeal airway space (Alves et al., 2008; Park et al., 2010; Stellzig-Eisenhauer and Meyer-Marcotty, 2010). Numerous studies have demonstrated that a combined orthodontic–orthognathic treatment highly influences the upper airway space (Figueroa et al., 1999; Swennen et al., 2000; Fearon, 2001, 2005; Bannink et al., 2010). In our cohort, we have been able to reproduce these results both clinically and on three-dimensional analysis of posterior airway space.

2015, American Journal of Orthodontics and Dentofacial OrthopedicsCitation Excerpt :Cho and Kyung26 recommended overcorrection of 20% to 30% to minimize relapse. Because the maxilla was completely osteotomized, less force was needed during DO.2,27 This patient had secondary caries on all 4 maxillary molars.
