Abstract
|
|
|
|
A midline deviation is divided into three types, such as a skeletal midline deviation, a dental midline deviation, and a combination. Among them, the midline deviation which appear in the early mixed dentition without any skeletal problem can be managed differently by the stage of dental development. The location of the permanent incisors can be improved without using artificial force in consideration of the condition of the space, the eruption timing or the eruption path of the adjacent permanent teeth in early mixed dentition, especially when the permanent incisors are erupting. Therefore, the space supervision technique, which can have the teeth align themselves utilizing physiologic events such as sequence or timing of the eruption of permanent teeth, can be an alternative to orthodontic movement. This case report describes midline deviation improvement by space supervision.
