Evaluation of the Effectiveness of Surgical Treatment by the Sukachev V.A. Method for Mandibular Deformities

Abstract

Progenia - (gr. pro- “forward” and geneion “chin”), in which the teeth of the lower row overlap the antagonist teeth of the upper row when the jaw is closed. Progenia is one of the most severe forms of facial deformities, characterized by an increase in the lower jaw with protrusion of the chin and malocclusion. Thus, functional and morphological disorders of the lower jaw are observed and patients face serious disorders in the functioning of the jaw apparatus. This is especially common in young people and negatively affects the quality of life and experience significant psychological discomfort [1]. According to the variety, false progeny and true progeny are distinguished [3]. True progeny must be distinguished from false progeny.
