Correction of Facial Asymmetry with Multiplanar Mandible Distraction: A One-Year Follow-Up Study

Abstract

Multiplanar mandibular distraction is an effective treatment for correcting facial asymmetry in young children. The 1-year follow-up revealed that the new sagittal jaw relation and mandibular body length were stable, and the achieved occlusal interdigitation was well maintained. However, the ramus height and chin deviation demonstrated some relapse.
