Presurgical Orthodontic Preparation: A Newer Trend for Orthognathic Surgical Treatment Planning

Dr. Ashish Kumar

Abstract: Pre-surgical orthodontics is mainly aimed at removing the dental compensations of the malocclusion. In short, the main goal for the presurgical orthodontic preparation is to just align and level the teeth, without thinking about the occlusion and also maintain the proper position of incisor to finally achieve the arch compatibility. The objective behind this presurgical orthodontic preparation is to treat the upper and lower dental arches separately/independently then align the teeth, with inclination and angulation correction.
