Camouflage orthodontic treatment is a preferred alternative method used to manage mild to moderate Class III malocclusion in nongrowing patients. The aim of this article was to demonstrate a camouflage orthodontic treatment of a 22-year-old female patient diagnosed as having a severe skeletal Class III malocclusion characterized by a straight facial profile, reverse overjet, crowded maxillary incisors, retrognathic maxilla, prognathic mandible, and a hypodivergent facial pattern. The initial diagnosis suggested orthognathic surgery, but the patient preferred the alternative treatment. The treatment approach chosen was nonextraction camouflage orthodontic treatment combined with Class III elastics. At the end of treatment, the canines and molars were in a Class I relationship, while the incisors presented a normal overjet and overbite relationship. The maxillary and mandibular midlines corresponded with each other and with the midsagittal plane, and the smile aesthetics were improved. The facial profile was slightly improved, and the vertical face height was also slightly increased with treatment. The treatment results were maintained 15 months after treatment. It was concluded that camouflage orthodontic treatment can be used as an effective alternative method to achieve acceptable dentofacial aesthetics, functional occlusion, and stability in treating an adult patient diagnosed with severe skeletal Class III malocclusion characterized by a retrognathic maxilla, prognathic mandible, and a hypodivergent facial pattern.</p>","PeriodicalId":46841,"journal":{"name":"Case Reports in Dentistry","volume":"2025 ","pages":"9839448"},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2025-01-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11724728/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142972744","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

More importantly, most of the time, children are under the care of their parents till they reach an age of maturity. One more thing that everyone believes even today is the elasticity nature of their bones as well as their body weight during their growing stage. All these uncertain factors, including the natural way of protection bestowed on us by nature during the childhood stage, might be the actual factors that can easily resist any form of minor trauma in pediatric patients. But sometimes, we come across children who have suffered traumatic head and neck injuries, including mandible fractures, usually falling from a height, and road site accidents while playing on the roadsides, including traffic accidents, which are inevitable. This is a case of three pediatric patients who had experienced accidental dental trauma with slight-displaced mandible fractures with slight dearrangement of normal occlusion and avulsion of permanent teeth. The cases were managed individually according to the types of trauma and injury they had sustained. Among three cases, one was a 9-year-old female pediatric patient, and the other two were male pediatric patients of 7 years old. Clinically, female patients had no mandible fracture as such except avulsion of teeth in the region of 32, 33, and 34. Both the male patients had a slight displacement of the mandible with a dearrangement of occlusion, and one male patient had a bilateral mandible fracture. So considering the nature and type of an injury they had sustained individually, different treatment modalities were employed for each individual as per their requirement for the restoration of normal occlusion, including hard and soft tissues. The prime objectives were the restoration of normal occlusion and alignment of the jawbone, including esthetic and phonetic, without impairing normal growth and development of jawbone and permanent tooth buds. The purpose of this article is to emphasize noninvasive methods of pediatric mandibular fracture reduction, restoration of normal occlusion, and management of soft tissue. Our treatment modalities show that this method can be easily applied in cases of any slightly displaced mandibular fracture in children during mixed dentition periods while taking utmost care of permanent tooth buds compared to other invasive methods of pediatric mandibular fracture management. The application of these various noninvasive treatment modalities and their clinical application for the management of slight displacement of mandibular fractures in pediatric cases were effective and clinically apparent in our study.

In one patient, the implant placement was associated with the guided bone regeneration (GBR) technique. This serious complication has been widely described in the literature, especially in the anterior mandible area. In cases of bone resorption, the edentulous ridge becomes closer to the artery, and the risk of vessel injury increases. In both patients, the hematoma rapidly spread in the loose tissues of the mouth floor, displacing the tongue posteriorly and cranially, with airway compromise. The patients were hospitalized with nasotracheal intubation to secure the airway. In both patients, the bleeding stopped spontaneously, and after a few days, the oral floor swallowing was reduced, allowing the endotracheal tube to be removed. In about 2 weeks, the hematoma completely resorbed without surgery. According to the literature, the main cause of floor of the mouth hemorrhage is the mandibular lingual cortical plate perforation during bone drilling with subsequent sublingual-submental artery injury. In fact, in the first patient presented, this surgical error was clearly noticeable on the CT scan. Differently, in the second case reported, no radiological signs of inner cortical perforation were observed, and together with a mouth floor hematoma, a blood collection was also evident on the lower lip, suggesting a different cause of bleeding. Most likely during the periosteal release incision, mandatory in GBR technique, the ascending mental artery was injured, and hematoma spread in the mouth floor through the similar incision done on the lingual flap.
