BACKGROUND: Post-traumatic mandibular malocclusion is a complex condition that poses a significant challenge to reconstructive surgeons. The malocclusion that ensues from bilateral condylar and parasymphseal fractures presents a particular challenge as it leads to bilateral posterior shortening and lingual tilting of dental arch leading to a combination of open anterior bite, crossbite, overbite, underbite, and/or facial asymmetry. The complexity of such malocclusion requires intricate freedom of movement of the mandibular arch that can be achieved by performing a 5-segment mandibular osteotomy.
METHOD: This is a case series of 9 adult patients with significant post-traumatic mandibular malocclusion who were treated with 5-segment mandibular osteotomy technique. This article details the demographics, surgical technique and outcomes in this cohort of patients.
RESULTS: All 9 patients in this series had condylar fracture as part of the index mandibular trauma. They have a common post-traumatic deformity of the mandibular arch due to shortening of the vertical mandibular height in the fracture site and variable degrees of lingual tilting leading to crossbite. The 5-segment mandibular osteotomy provided an adequate correction of dental and facial deformities in all 9 patients. One patient had a relapse of the dental malocclusion that required postoperative rescue orthodontics. Furthermore, one patient had a significant postoperative hemorrhage that required a facial artery ligation.
CONCLUSION: Post-traumatic mandibular malocclusion is a complex deformity that poses a great challenge to practicing surgeons. Five-segment mandibular osteotomy is a technique that provides ample degrees of movement of mandibular segments that is necessary to correct such deformity.
