Distraction Osteogenesis and It’s Orthodontic Implications: A Review
Main Article Content
Abstract
Distraction osteogenesis is used synonymously with “Osteo-distraction”, “Trans osseous synthesis” or “bone lengthening”. With the advent of newer techniques in field of orthodontics and oral and maxillofacial surgery, Distraction osteogenesisis ever evolving entity. The methods and approaches used in craniofacial distraction are always changing. We now have a better grasp of the histological and biochemical reaction at the site of distraction.[1] “Distraction osteogenesis is ever evolving entity. The methods and approaches used in craniofacial distraction are always changing. We now have a better grasp of the histological and biochemical reaction at the site of distraction. Distraction osteogenesis involves a different series of events from normal fracture healing, and a better understanding of these differences has allowed us to select patients who are good candidates for distraction osteogenesis. The availability of distractors in a variety of forms and styles has also been made easier by recent advancements in manufacturing techniques, which are currently altering the treatment of numerous craniofacial deformities. These days, patients are willing to endure the pangs essential for their perfect esthetics.[2] Treatment outcomes have become more predictable due to innovative approaches to care, the simultaneous correction of several craniofacial abnormalities at many osteotomy sites, and improved surgical accuracy made possible by digital imaging.[3] The purpose of this review article is to summarize distraction osteogenesis under various headings.
Conclusion: Distraction Osteogenesis, opens a new plethora of treatment and outcomes. Although the need for conventional mandibular and maxillary osteotomies will always persist, distraction osteogenesis tends to pave way for newer treatment approach for craniofacial abnormalities for orthodontist and oral surgeons as well.
