Case report: early class III correction using titanium dental implants and facemask therapy: a 24-year follow-up
Abstract
The management of a Class III malocclusion in the mixed dentition presents with many challenges, in particular, the post-treatment growth-related changes which can continue into adulthood. This case report describes the multidisciplinary management of a 9-year-old female using titanium dental implants, rapid maxillary expansion and a Delaire facemask. Pre-treatment, post-treatment and long-term follow-up records of the patient are presented.
