Il s’agit du cas d’une jeune fille de 12 ans d’origine africaine présentant une biproalvéolie avec ventilation buccale nocturne. Le traitement orthodontique sans extraction dentaire a consisté, après amygdalectomie, en une rétraction des dents antérieures maxillaires dans les espaces de diastèmes. La normalisation de l’angle de l’incisive supérieure a permis l’amélioration de la biproalvéolie sans modification de l’équilibre antérieur des tissus mous.
This is the case of a 12-year-old African young girl with bialveolar protrusion and night mouth breathing. Orthodontic treatment without dental extraction consisted after tonsillectomy in retraction of anterior teeth in the diastema spaces. The normalization of the angle of the upper incisor has improved bialveolar protrusion without alteration to the prior balance of soft tissue.
