Traditional orthognathic surgery has long been performed after presurgical orthodontic treatment. Despite some concerns, the surgery-first orthognathic approach (SFOA) or surgery-first approach (SFA) without presurgical orthodontic treatment has gradually gained popularity. In recent years, several articles dealing with the concepts of the SFA have been published worldwide. However, the SFA has not yet been standardized, and many surgeons use slightly different protocols and concepts. This review article discusses the beginning and evolution of the SFA and its current concepts, including some opinions based on the authors’ clinical experiences over the last 15 years. According to recent investigations, the SFA could be applied effectively in several situations including class III malocclusion, class II malocclusion, and facial asymmetry. However, debate on the SFA continues and many issues remain to be resolved. This review article addresses the current issues regarding the SFOA, including its advantages and disadvantages, as well as its indications and contraindications. The authors summarize various aspects of the SFA and expect that this review article will help surgeons and orthodontists better understand the current status of the SFA.

Reported case of a 19 years old male, with Class III malocclusion, bilateral cross bite associated with anterior open bite, which was treated by fixed orthodontic treatment. After treatment there was a class I Molar and incisor relation as well as the open bite was corrected with accepted aesthetic and functional satisfaction of the patient.

INTRODUCTION: This case report describes the orthodontic treatment of an adult patient with skeletal Class III malocclusion and anterior crossbite. A short cranial base led to difficulties in establishing a cephalometric diagnosis. The patient's main complaint comprised esthetics of his smile and difficulties in mastication. METHODS: The patient did not have the maxillary first premolars and refused orthognathic surgery. Therefore, the treatment chosen was orthodontic camouflage and extraction of mandibular first premolars. For maxillary retraction, the vertical dimension was temporarily increased to avoid obstacles to orthodontic movement. RESULTS: At the end of the treatment, ideal overjet and overbite were achieved. CONCLUSION: Examination eight years after orthodontic treatment revealed adequate clinical stability. This case report was submitted to the Brazilian Board of Orthodontics and Facial Orthopedics (BBO) as part of the requirements to become a BBO diplomate.

A 46-year-old male Caucasian with traumatically induced maxillary retrusion was referred for orthodontic treatment, eight weeks after the original fracture had occurred. Initial surgical reduction and fixation had been successful, when a second traumatic episode was encountered. This resulted in a further degree of posterior maxillary displacement, which was resistant to further surgical reduction. The resulting Class III malocclusion was treated using maxillary protraction headgear, in conjunction with removable orthodontic appliances and intermaxillary traction. Appliances were worn full time and inter-arch correction was achieved in six months. The resulting occlusion proved to be stable following the cessation of active treatment.

Introduction: Class III malocclusion has skeletal and dental components that can often impair the patient's facial appearance. Its treatment may involve orthognathic surgery or compensatory orthodontics. Case report: This case report presents a Class III malocclusion compensatory orthodontic treatment performed with the Biofunctional prescription brackets. Biofunctional prescription presents a torque value of 0° for the maxillary incisors and +10° for the mandibular incisors, which counteracts to the side effects of the use of Class III intermaxillary elastics, minimizing it, providing a more stable, aesthetic and with a healthier periodontal occlusion. Conclusion: The Class III malocclusion compensatory orthodontic treatment performed with Biofunctional prescription obtains satisfactory results, even depending on the patient collaboration with the use of intermaxillary elastics.

Class III malocclusion is one of the most complex to treat for healthcare because it presents alterations in skeletal and dental component of patients. Case Report: male patient, 17 years old, had a skeletal Class III malocclusion with mandibular prognathism, facial asymmetry, plus a slightly concave profile, crossbite and posterior left. By orthognathic surgery, using the technique of sagittal ramus osteotomy and segmentation maxillary, Le Fort I, malocclusion, accompanied by the Alexander technique Orthodontics is corrected. Conclusion: the correct application of knowledge in the field of Orthodontics and Maxillofacial Surgery allows patients to become skeletal class II to cephalometric analysis, changes to your profile slightly convex and canine class I is reached on both sides.
