What's the difference between orthognathism and orthognathous?

Orthognathism


Definition:

  • (n.) The quality or state of being orthognathous.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) There is a necessity for early definitive decision-making in the borderline orthognathic surgery patient and the role of orthodontic camouflage is pointed out.
  • (2) The author describes three systems for (1) the treatment of mandibular fractures; (2) the treatment of midface fractures, for reconstructive surgery of the facial skeleton and the skull, and for orthognathic surgery; and (3) the reconstruction of mandibular defects including condyle replacement.
  • (3) Progress in orthognathic surgery as well as the special methods now available for proper setting of osteotomic segments, diagnostic aids and therapeutic possibilities of orthodontics have considerably strengthened the case today for giving adults a combined treatment.
  • (4) In selected cases orthognathic surgery may offer a solution for either problem.
  • (5) Therefore, in orthodontic treatment, the growth of the cranio-facial type should be taken into consideration before the use of orthognathic force or orthognathic surgery.
  • (6) The orthodontic considerations in orthognathic cases are based on a detailed understanding of the malocclusion, particularly a differential diagnosis of its facial, skeletal, and dental components, along with a recognition of the limitations of current orthodontic therapy.
  • (7) The finite element method is used to predict facial deformation following orthognathic surgery for mandibular prognathism.
  • (8) The material consisted of presurgical and 1-year postsurgical profile cephalograms of 52 adult orthognathic surgery patients (40 females and 12 males) who initially had mandibular prognathism and had undergone bilateral vertical ramus osteotomy through an extraoral incision in the retroangular area.
  • (9) This paper describes a small pilot study designed to evaluate possible psychiatric effects that may occur during the recuperative period of orthognathic surgery.
  • (10) Several case reports are included to demonstrate a contemporary approach combining orthodontic treatment and orthognathic surgery.
  • (11) After cutting simulated orthognathic surgery is designed, new data files and new control file are made.
  • (12) Of a selected group of 39 patients referred for orthognathic surgery, 38 were found to have some stage of internal derangement of the temporomandibular joint prior to surgery, a much higher incidence than previously reported in either symptomatic patients or asymptomatic individuals.
  • (13) Results are considered to be useful information for determining the timing of orthognathic surgery for Skeletal C1.
  • (14) Indications in maxillo-facial surgery are the correction of "double chin" deformity and increased submental fullness after orthognathic surgical procedures as mandibular setback, as well as an adjunct to rhytidectomy.
  • (15) The dentist should insure patients' compliance and very carefully inform the patient for all the details, the expectations and the complications of treatment, concerning more complicated irreversible technics, such as occlusal adjustment, orthodontics, restorative dentistry, surgery of the TMJ and orthognathic surgery.
  • (16) Model surgery, an integral part of the planning of orthognathic surgical cases, can in some cases be performed on a simple hinge articulator, while in other cases a face-bow and semiadjustable articulator is required.
  • (17) The accuracy of vertical control during maxillary orthognathic surgery was assessed in 45 patients, comparing the use of traditional internal measurements across the osteotomy lines (15 subjects) with measurements between the incisor teeth and an external reference point consisting of a bone screw placed at nasion (two groups of 15 subjects each).
  • (18) Several cases of aesthetic and orthognathic surgery are presented to emphasize the value of the procedure.
  • (19) Using the Ricketts 10 Factor Analysis, it was found that by means of 'Clinical deviators' radiographs could be used to distinguish orthognathic cases from the other treatment groups.
  • (20) Speech characteristics of 20 patients who underwent orthognathic surgery for correction of various skeletal defects were studied before surgical treatment and at periodic intervals postoperatively.

Orthognathous


Definition:

  • (a.) Having the front of the head, or the skull, nearly perpendicular, not retreating backwards above the jaws; -- opposed to prognathous. See Gnathic index, under Gnathic.
