ABSTRACT
ABSTRACT Obtaining long term stability allied to functional and aesthetic balance is the main goal of any orthodontic-orthopedic therapy. This case report describes the orthodontic therapy applied to a 7-year-9-month old child, who presented a Class II, division 1 malocclusion associated to skeletal open bite. Functional and skeletal corrections (sagittally and vertically) were obtained by means of mandible advancement achieved with a closed Balter's bionator appliance followed by a fixed appliance. This approach showed to be efficient in accomplishing both functional and aesthetic goals, that were kept stable five years after the treatment was finished. This case report was presented to the Board of Directors of the Brazilian Board of Orthodontics and Facial Orthopedics (BBO), as partial requirement to becoming a Diplomate of the BBO.
RESUMO
RESUMO A obtenção do equilíbrio funcional e estético em um contexto de estabilidade em longo prazo é o objetivo de qualquer abordagem ortodôntico-ortopédica. O presente relato aborda o tratamento ortodôntico realizado em uma criança com 7 anos e 9 meses de idade, portadora de Classe II, divisão 1, associada a mordida aberta esquelética. A correção funcional e esquelética (sagital e vertical) foi obtida por meio de avanço mandibular, com aparelho Bionator de Balters do tipo fechado, seguido de aparelho ortodôntico fixo. Essa abordagem foi eficiente para atingir as metas funcionais e estéticas, que continuaram estáveis cinco anos após a conclusão do tratamento. Esse caso clínico foi apresentado à Diretoria do Board Brasileiro de Ortodontia e Ortopedia Facial (BBO), como parte dos requisitos para a obtenção do título de Diplomado pelo BBO.
