SURGICAL CORRECTION OF SMALL OR
RETRODISPLACED MAXILLAE
‘The “Dish-face” Deformity
HUGO L, OBWEGESER, MD, DMD.
Zurich, Switzerland
A posterior displacement of the max-
ila may be present, with the maxilla
cither underdeveloped or normal in size,
and may be coupled with a normal occlu:
sion, The term “dish-face deformity” is
generally applied.
‘The displacement may also be found
with an Angle Class IIT malocclusion.
Here, the term pseudoprognathism is
commonly used.
INDICATIONS FOR SURGERY
1. Functional indication
Therapy may be indicated for im-
provement of mastication, speech, or
breathing. Improvement of occlusion
may be necessary as a therapeutic or
prophylactic measure in temporoman-
dibular joint disorders.
2, Esthetic indication
‘The disturbance in the patient's out-
ward appearance may create a personal
desire for correction. This reason, in
most cases, is the main motivation for
seeking therapy. In the patient's eyes,
the esthetic consideration is often more
important than the functional one.
‘There is a difference in this problem
between male and female. Both want to
have their situation corrected, when the
deformity is very pronounced. However,
in cases of minor retrodisplacement of
the maxilla, a male may believe his con-
dition emphasizes the masculinity of his
face. ‘The same situation in a female
may look unpleasant* or the woman may
think it gives her the appearance of a
‘masculine profile.
3. Psychic indication
Due to his unusual appearance the
patient may develop psychological prob-
Jems. Abnormalities of occlusion, masti-
cation, speech, and breathing may lead to
the same. Females suffer more than
males. The psychological problems of
the patient begin very often at the age of
puberty, or even before. When successful
correction of the displacement is per-
formed early enough, the psychic dis-
order may be fully reversible. If the
displacement is not corrected before the
age of 20 (0 23, the psychic disorder may
be so deeply ingrained that, in spite of
later successful correction of the skeletal
situation, it may still remain partially
irreversible.
4. Social indication
Because of disturbances in both ap-
pearance and function, psychic and ac-
‘companying abnormalities, these patients
have to cope with a great number of dis-
advantages. Reduction of the masticatory
function may make one dependent on
home cooking and cause digestive prob-
lems. One's appearance may completely
bar him from certain types of professions,

‘or may prevent him from advancing in
his profession in accord with his mental
and manual capabilities. ‘The resultant
psychic manifestations, due to the pa-
tient’s skeletal disorder alone, may be
enough to hinder him. in his vocation.
Perhaps worst of all for the patient, his
personal and private life sutfers from
these esthetic, psychological and func
tional abnormalities.
ANATOMICAL SITCATION
Various anatomical patterns may be
found, but they may be classified into
two main groups.
1. Those with normal occlusion.
2. Those with Angle Class TIT malocel
sion, with or without open bite
Depending on the situation, surgery
will have to deal either with the “dish-
face deformity” alone, or also with con-
comitant abnormal occlusal and inter-
maxillary relationships. As there are 3
generally accepted classical profile types
(A. M. Schwarz!)—the straight forward
profile, the straight backward profile, and
the average profile—there is no way to
obtain a measurable plan ds to where and
to what extent correction has ta be per
formed. Therefore, it will depend on the
patient's wishes and the surgeon's judg-
ment and intuition to decide which part
of the facial skeleton has to be corrected
in which direction—and to what degree.
The cephalogram and other roent
genographic projections definitely aid in
making up one’s mind, ‘The tracing of
the cephalogram may be of more value
(in this respect) than the patient's photo-
graph though, in some cases, the latter
can be more important. For the correc:
tion of occlusion, study models are a
necessity; we mount them in a special
articulator (Obwegeser®), which permit
us 10 move any parts of the models in any
desired direction to determine the re-
quired correction. Through the model

operation, we can appraise the tooth:
bearing arch. After taking accurate meas-
‘urements, we either enlarge the arch (for
cases of micromaxillism) or advance the
arch (for cases of retromaxillism) until
normal occlusion with the mandibular
teeth is obtained, All of our reconstruc-
tion work in this area is based upon
normal occlusion,
WHICH PROCEDURE?
Various types of procedures are avail-
able for correction of retrodisplacement
of the whole, or parts, of the maxilla.
Depending on the case, one may be able
to correct the whole disfigurement with
one procedure only, or two or more pro:
cedures, either in one operation or in
different operations, may be required.
‘The decision will depend on the patient's
personal wishes and the snrgeons’s judg-
ment. For these reasons, rather than dis-
‘cussing the various types of deformities,
the procedures will be discussed. Which
procedure will be used depends upon the
individual case.
DENTAL PROSTHESIS
Without surgery, a dental prosthesis
‘may support the upper lip and, to a cer-
extent, the cheek. However, for
contour restoration, the socalled cover
denture is not recommended as, within
a few years, it may have 2 deleterious ef
fect upon the remaining teeth.
MAXILLARY ONLAY
Cases with normal occlusion, but flat-
ness in the middle third of the face, may
find remarkable improvement. through
an intraoral maxillary onlay (Converse
and Shapiro, Schmid,* Ragnell,* etc).
The technique is generally known. For
this procedure, we personally prefer bank
cartilage or bone. Bone is normally used
during the same operation, bone graft-
ing is performed for gaining bony unionVol. 43, No. 4 / spvaNciNc THE UPPER JAW

Fic. 1. Correction of facial contour with a denture, after an epithelial inlay proceduse in a
patient witha retodisplaced edentulous maxilla,
between the moved and stable parts of the
middle-third of the facial skeleton. The
onlay can be placed around the pyriform
aperture only, or up to (and including)
the infraorbital rim.
‘The Gillies* type of buccal inlay, pri
marily advocated for advancement of the
nose for the luetic dish face deformity, is
an extreme form of the buccal inlay
technique. As the appliance isa kind of
cover denture, this type of operation is
recommended for edentulous cases only.
There is another type of buccal inlay,
which does not open the pyriform aper
ture (Pichler, Obwegeser’) and still
brings excellent results where indicated
(Fig. 1).
All types of buccal inlay techniques do
have the great drawback that the surgical
result may be destroyed, more or less
completely, if the patient is not able 10
cooperate properly. The buccal inlay has
another disadvantage in edentulous ret
rodisplaced maxillas. Because of the ret
rodisplaced supporting base for the den.
ture, the mandibular front teeth contact
the upper denture in front of the maxilla.
This, after some years, leads automati
ally to supplementary resorption of al
veolar bone.
ENLARGING THE MAXILLARY CIRCUMBER.
ENCE IN EDENTULOUS MANILLAE
This procedure may often be indicated
in edentulous cleft palate cases, and in
some other edentulous cases of micro:
maxillism and retromaxillism. Bone,
from cither the hip or rib, may be used
to create a new alveolus and enlarge the
anterior part of the maxilla (Obweg-
exer"), Another ideal donor site is the
inferior rim of the chin prominence

tical bone, the risk for infectionPLASTIC & RECONSTRUCTIVE SURGERY, April 1969

Subsequently, all these cases need a
second operation for improvement of the
vestibular area. Any of the various types
of vestibuloplasty may be used (Ob-
wegeser’).
FORWARD REPOSITIONING OF ANTERIOR
It is now a routine operation to re
position the anterior part of the maxilla
posteriorly for correction of maxillary
protrusion (Wasmund, Wunderer"),
The same type of operation may be used
to advance any desired part of the maxitla
anteriorly (Converse et al). As it is im-
possible to stretch the palatal soft tissues
enough for the necessary amount of for-
ward movement, one should elevate the
entire palatal soft tissue covering. ‘The
mobilized anterior part of the maxilla can
receive its blood supply through the
vestibular mucosa, which is left attached.
The bone defects produced in the ante-
rior wall of the antrum, and in the al-
veolus and hard palate, have to be filled
with bone grafts (Fig. 8).
This type of operation is very useful
when only minor repositioning has to be
achieved and when the occlusion in the
biscupid and molar area is acceptable
(Figs. 4, 5).

Circular detachment of the maxilla,
as a Le Fort I type of fracture, was
performed first by. Wassmund® in 1927
for closure of an open bite. However
Axhausen" (1934) was the first to ad-
vance the maxilla anteriorly in a surgical
fracture of the Le Fort I type, using
elastics, postoperatively, for the forward
movement. Schucharde'® (1942), after he
had detached the maxilla from the ptery-
oid process in a second operation, used
weights to effect the same movement. He
mentioned that this procedure should be
used more often in Angle Class III cases.
He states, however, that it cannot be
used in cleft palate cases. Some operators
cut the boné across the hard palate (Co:
verse and Shapiro, Cupar, Gillies,
Rowe,'* Kale,”).

high as possible, from the tuberosity area

contrast 19 Hogeman and Vilmar,* we had some
relapses. Because of this we later detached the
‘maxilla from the pterygoid plates)
In the same session we open the max-
illary arch by cutting the palate lateral to
the mid-palatal sutures (Obwegeser?! 8,
Later we fill the space between the ptery-
goid process and tuberosity area by in-
serting a piece of bone (Fig. 64, B).
In cases of considerable forward move-
ment of the maxilla, to build a bony
bridge between the stable and moved
parts, itis necessary to put ina bone graft
from the zygomatic crest to the pyriform
aperture (Fig. 6). This forward move-
‘ment has been accomplished for distances
up to 20 mm. In spite of broad commu-
nication to the open antrum, the cancel
lous bone which bridges the gap will heal
perfectly, as shown by Gillies? Bone
placed along the anterior wall of the
antrum also increases the contour of the
face; for this reason, it may be placed as
high as the infraorbital rim (Fig, 6C)

type fracture. What may be difficult, how-

this incision line, the bone cut is made

LE FORT IIL FRACTURE-OPERATION
Most cases can be corrected perfectly
the Le Fort I type of fracture-opera-
tion, occasionally utilizing supplemen-
tary onlays around parts of the orbit.
Others require a Le Fort III fracture:
operation,
‘According to the literature, Gillics'™
seems to have been, until recently, the
only one who had advanced the middle-
third of the facial skeleton via a surgically
performed Le Fort III fracture. He had
done it only once. Not long ago, Murray
and Swanson?® also published one case.
However, it has not yet become a routine
operation,
Since Tessier, at the Fourth Interna-
tional Conference on Plastic Surgery in
Rome (1967) demonstrated his ingenious
work on the upper-half of the facial skel-
‘eton, there is no longer any reason why
this procedure should not be done rou-
tinely. ‘Tessier® * demonstrated clear
operating procedures for advancing the
upper-half of the middlethird of the
facial skeleton, for producing surgically
a Le Fort III fracture, and for correction
of hypertelorism (Tessier e¢ al), includ-
ing removal of parts of the base of the
skull.
His many variations of cutting the
upper-half of the facial skeleton will
stimulate the modification of incision
lines on the bone. In the future, surgery
of this type will probably be based on the
methods he has pioneered (Fig. 9).

COMBINED LE FORT II AND LE FORT 1
‘OSTEOTOMY PROCEDURE
In some cases an independent forward
repositioning of the lower half and the
upper half of the middle third of the
facial skeleton must be performed. In
the lower half of the middle third of the
facial skeleton the degree of forward
movement is determined by occlusal ne-
ccessity. The degree of movement of the
upperhalf is influenced mainly by es-
thetics. To achieve both goals simul
taneously, one can perform both a Le
Fort III and a Le Fort I osteotomy pro-
cedure in one operation (Fig. 12),
IE the case also requires a narrowing of
the upper half, this portion may be
fractured in the midline and along the
suture lines between the nasal bones and
maxilla, ot lateral to them (Fig. 13). By
doing this the nasal bridge can auto
matically be raised to a certain height
For simultaneous correction of a more
pronounced hypertelorism, a strip of
bone and tissue could also be removed
(Tessier®"). And, if the occlusion de-
mands it, there is no reason why one
should not remove a strip of bone in the
middle of the lower-half of the middle
third (palate and alveolus). During a
combined Le Fort IIT and Le Fort 1
osteotomy procedure, the maxillary arch
can also be widened by opening it (Fig.
14), as we do when necessary in the Le
Fort I procedure (Obwegeser®! ®)
Bone cuts may be made, according to
the individual case. The temporal proc
ess of the zygomatic bone is detached
from the maxillary complex (Figs. 9, 14)
or is included therein (Fig. 12). In the
latter case, the bone cut may follow the
2ygomatictemporal suture line. In our360 PLASTIC & RECONSTRUCTIVE suRGERY, April 1969

SUGGESTION OF
OSTEOTOMY PROCEDURE
It is no longer too difficult to repo-
sition the maxilla through either a surgi-
cal Le Fort I or Le Fort Il fracture. Tak-
ing this into consideration, there is no
reason why (although I have not done it
yet mysclf) the Le Fort II type fracture
should not be performed in cases where
indicated.
INCISION LINES ON THE SKIN
ay THE MOUTH
AND.
Access to the bone may be gained by
various types of skin incisions. For the
supra-and lateral orbital rim, Tessier® *7
uses either an incision in the eyebrow, or
a semicircular incision from one ear 0
the other across the top of the skull,
(pulling the whole anterior half of scalp
downwards). For access to the infraor-
bital rim, he has used an incision in the
eyelid, oF a high incision below the in:
fraorbital rim in the skin lines.
In the Le Fort III procedure, when the
bone is cut lateral to the lacrimal canal,
there is no need for a supplementary
incision on the nose. However, when the
Le Fort III procedure includes theVol. 43, No. 4 / spvancivo THe vePER Jaw

retro. and micromaxillism. Various pro:

equal retrodisplacement of the upper-
half and lower-half of the middle-third

It has become almost routine to move
any part of the lower-half of the facial
skeleton in any desired direction (Ob-

extraordinary work of Tessier, it seems
possible to execute similar reposition:

ploying these concepts, a complete al-
‘eration of the human physiognomy now
seems possible.
