Achieving excellence in anterior rehabilitations requires close cooperation between the periodontist and the prosthodontist. Many techniques can be used to restore the lost alveolar hard and soft tissues. The more severe the peri-implant defect, the higher the challenge and lower the predictability of the procedure. The present case consists of Seibert Class III with malaligned implants in the esthetic zone resolved with a cost-modified treatment plan to reestablish esthetics in the anterior maxilla using a rotated palatal flap. The vascularized interpositional periosteal connective tissue graft was effective in augmenting the soft tissue in the esthetic zone and remained stable over a 2-year period. Additional long-term clinical studies are necessary to support these results.

The purpose of this study was to analyse cephalometrically the long-term effect of Activator treatment on the dentofacial skeleton in 50 consecutively treated cases of postnormal and prenormal occlusion. Comparisons of dentofacial form between successful and unsuccessful cases were performed. The results of the study showed that the sagittal relationship between the jaws became normal in postnormal and prenormal cases during Activator treatment. The effect was achieved mainly by reciprocal dentoalveolar changes of the maxilla and mandible supported by a retardation of the forward growth of the maxilla in Class II cases and a stimulation of the forward growth of the maxilla in Class III cases. The normal downward-forward growth of the mandible appeared unaffected. The effect of Activator treatment on the vertical growth of the jaws was a significant increase in lower face height (bite-raising). No tendency to induce a harmful posterior growth rotation of the mandible was noted. Before treatment there was no highly significant difference in the morphology of the dentofacial skeleton between successfully and unsuccessfully treated Activator cases, except for the basal relationship between the jaws (ss-n-sm) which was larger in the successful cases. It would rather appear that good cooperation, high growth intensity and a favourable growth pattern of the patient together with a well constructed appliance is of decisive importance for a successful result of treatment.

Craniofacial morphology was compared in 10 patients with unilateral cleft lip and alveolus (UCLA), 33 with complete unilateral cleft lip and palate (UCLP), and 14 patients with isolated cleft palate (CP). Serial lateral and posteroanterior cephalograms, obtained just before lip repair at 4 months or palatoplasty at 2 years, and at 4 and 8 years of age, were analyzed through comparisons with the means and growth increments of craniofacial dimensions. Facial forms at 8 years of age were compared with those of 33 noncleft subjects. Wider upper facial width before lip repair in the UCLP patients diminished slightly following surgery, but the condition persisted up to 8 years of age. Less forward growth of the maxilla was found in the subjects who received palatoplasty and a larger vertical growth increment in anterior maxilla occurred in the UCLP patients. Posterior maxillary height showed no significant differences in its growth increment among patients with clefts, but shorter posterior maxillary height in the UCLP patients continued. Linear dimensions of the mandible did not differ among cleft subjects, but a larger intercondylar width, a larger gonial angle, and a slightly retruded mandible in the CP patients and UCLP patients suggested compensation of the mandible to a wider and retroinclined nasomaxillary complex.
