The goal of this treatment is to conserve the pieces healthy until the end of life. In some cases, conventional treatments are not enough and we must resort to surgical orthodontics. With these patients, we perform an orthodontic treatment before and after surgery. With surgery, we can corrects large bone defects that cannot be solved otherwise.
