Abstract

treatment options for a skeletal asymmetry depend on the seriousness of the problem, the age of the patient and other individual esthetic and functional concerns.Surgical therapy is usually delayed until the end of growth, although it may be initiated earlier if the facial deformation is so serious that several surgical interventions are required. Functional therapy is recommended in a growing cooperative patient with mild skeletal asymmetry.
