Children with congenital conditions like cleft lip and palate frequently need surgical procedures in addition to orthodontic treatment for effective rehabilitation. Recently, new surgical techniques have been incorporated into orthodontic management, including the Surgery First approach, which significantly shortens treatment time; implant placement to provide additional anchorage; and distraction osteogenesis to advance the maxilla and mandible. It is estimated that about 5% of the Indian population has dentofacial deformities that cannot be effectively treated with orthodontics alone and require orthognathic surgery as a definitive treatment. Orthognathic surgery can be employed to correct: - Major jaw misalignments (including anteroposterior, vertical, or transverse issues). - Facial skeletal imbalances linked to airway defects and soft tissue inconsistencies. - Facial skeletal issues related to identified temporomandibular joint disorders.
