27.1 Occlusal Plane Alteration

The correction of dentofacial deformities often requires double jaw orthognathic surgery to achieve a quality functional and aesthetic result. An often ignored but important cephalometric and clinical inter-relationship in the diagnosis and treatment is the occlusal plane angle (OPA). The OPA is dened as the angle formed by the Frankfort horizontal plane (a line through infra-orbitale tangent to the superior aspect of porion) and a line tan­gent to the cusp tips of the lower premolars and the buc­cal groove of the second molar (. Fig. 27.1). The normal value for adults is 8 ± 4 degrees. An increased or high occlusal plane angle (HOP) is reected in an increased mandibular plane angle (dolichocephaly), and a decreased or low occlusal plane angle (LOP) correlates with a decreased mandibular plane angle (brachyceph­aly). The focus of this chapter will be on the HOP facial morphology since it is commonly associated with sleep apnea and will describe the diagnostic characteristics, treatment protocols, and outcome results.
The traditional methods used by most clinicians for surgical management of the OPA in double jaw surgery are usually addressed by one of the following three methods: (1) maintaining the presurgical OPA, (2) estab­lishing the OPA by autorotation of the mandible (usu­ally in an upward and forward direction) when correcting vertical maxillary hyperplasia, or (3) selectively increas­ing the OPA relative to Frankfort horizontal plane (FHP) to “improve stability” (regardless of the steep-
ness of the original OPA) by the posterior intrusion of the maxilla and vertically shortening the posterior height of the mandible. Although these methods may achieve an acceptable relationship of the teeth in centric relation, they may not provide the optimal functional and aesthetic relationship of the musculoskeletal struc­tures, dentition, and airway dimensions. As the OPA increases in steepness and begins to approach the slope of the TMJ articular eminence, certain functional prob­lems can develop, including (1) loss of canine protected occlusion, (2) loss of incisal guidance, and (3) develop­ment of working and nonworking posterior dental func­tional interferences. If the clinician believes in the protected occlusion philosophy, there may be concern over the application of the traditional treatment meth­ods of increasing the angulation of the OPA in patients that initially present with an HOP facial morphology.
In addition, the steepness of the OPA can have a pro­found adverse effect on the dimensions and volume of the oropharyngeal airway. The steeper the OPA, there is generally a reduction in the dimensions and volume of the oropharyngeal airway that can contribute to upper airway resistance syndrome and sleep apnea.

analysis is an important aspect for patient diagnosis and treatment planning. An often overlooked but essential inter-relationship is the occlusal plane angle (OPA) relative to the Frankfort horizontal reference plane. The OPA can have a profound effect on jaw and occlusal function, facial esthetics, and airway. When orthognathic surgery is considered for a patient, alteration of the occlusal plan may be necessary to achieve the best treatment outcome

complex (MMC) was developed by Wolford in 1981 with the rst known, successfully performed double jaw CCWR of the MMC by vertical lengthening of the posterior maxilla and mandible. This procedure was done prior to the availability of rigid xation. The rst published reference to the philosophy and surgical planning of CCWR of the MMC was by Wolford etal. [1] in 1985. The second reference to CCWR of the OPA was by Wolford and Hilliard [2] in 1987 where the rst known case to have CCWR of the MMC was published (surgery performed in 1981). The patient’s surgery was carried out specically to correct her severe sleep apnea and severe facial deformity. Thus, the concept and application of CCWR of the MMC as an effective means to maximize functional, esthetic, and airway outcomes in patients with HOP facial deformities was introduced.
Wolford etal. [3, 4]. published detailed descriptions of the clinical and radiographic characteristics of the HOP facial type that could benet from CCWR of the MMC, as well as presented the protocols for surgical management. Kortebein and Wolford [5] in 1991 dem­onstrated the signicant and positive effect that CCWR of the MMC had on increasing the oropha­ryngeal airway as well as the improvement of facial balance in treating sleep apnea patients. Chemello et al. [6] in 1994 published a comparative stability study between CCWR and CWR of the MMC, dem­onstrating good stability for both in the presence of healthy TMJs.
Nevertheless, postsurgical stability has remained a major concern for CCWR of the MMC by many clini­cians because of numerous reports of mandibular relapse related to condylar resorption with simple sur­gical mandibular advancements, plus the misperceived problems related to increasing the posterior facial height; stretching of the suprahyoid, pterygoid, and masseteric muscles; and adverse effects on the TMJs [721]. It has been reported that the skeletal stability after CCWR of the MMC is comparable to other man­dibular surgical procedures [6, 22, 23], but to obtain the acceptable level of stability after CCWR, appropri­ate preoperative orthodontic treatment, proper execu­tion of the surgical procedures, and the presence of healthy and stable TMJs are essential factors. But Proft etal [24] found that surgically decreasing the anterior facial height by CCWR of the mandible jeop­ardizes the stability of the results. However, with the development of rigid xation, improvement in surgical techniques, as well as recognition of preexisting TMJ pathology and its appropriate management, CCWR of the MMC has proved to be a very stable procedure [6,
22, 23].

27.2 Corrected Frankfort Horizontal Plane

There are often times when the cephalometric analysis does not correlate to the clinical assessment of the patient’s facial morphology. This can be related to an aberrantly positioned FHP because of vertical malpo­sition of porion or orbitale and/or anteroposterior malposition of nasion compared to the “normal” anatomy. In this situation, it can be helpful to reorient the FHP (i.e., correct the FHP reference line) so that the cephalometric values for maxillary and mandibu­lar anteroposterior (A-P) positions correlate with the clinical impression of the patient. This provides appli­cation of the normal cephalometric values to assist in diagnosis and treatment planning (. Fig. 27.2). Cephalometric analysis tempered with good clinical judgment can be valuable tools in establishing the most appropriate orthodontic and surgical treatment plans.

27.3 High Occlusal Plane (HOP) Facial Type

HOP facial morphological types are the most common facial form associated with sleep apnea (. Figs.27.3a,b,
27.4a, b, and 27.5a). Common characteristics of the
HOP facial type generally include some or all of the fol­lowing: (1) increased OPA (12 degrees or greater); (2) increased mandibular plane angle; (3) anterior vertical maxillary hyperplasia, and/or posterior vertical maxil­lary hypoplasia, as well as transverse hypoplasia; (4) increased vertical height of the anterior mandible and/ or decreased vertical height of the posterior mandible; (5) decreased projection of the chin (A-P microgenia); (6) A-P and posterior vertical mandibular and maxillary hypoplasia; (7) decreased angulation of maxillary inci­sors, although overangulation can occur; (8) increased angulation of mandibular incisors; (9) occurrence of Class II occlusion, which is common, although Class I and Class III occlusions can also occur; (10) presence of anterior open bite that may be accompanied by an accentuated curve of Spee in the upper arch; (11) hyper­trophied turbinates, septal deviation, and nasal airway obstruction; (12) loss of incisal guidance, loss of canine protected occlusion, and the presence of working and nonworking posterior dental interferences in more pro­nounced cases in which the OPA approaches the slope of the articular eminence; and (12) decreased oropha­ryngeal airway where the more severe cases may demon­strate moderate to severe sleep apnea symptoms as a result of the tongue base and soft palate displaced pos­teriorly and constricting the oropharyngeal airway. Normal oropharyngeal airway space measured from the posterior pharyngeal wall to the soft palate and to the base of tongue is 11±2mm.
27.3.1 Orthodontic Considerations forHOP
Facial Type
In the HOP facial type, decreasing the angulation of the maxillary incisors below normal and increasing the lower incisor angulation during the presurgical orth­odontic phase may be indicated so that when the OPA is decreased surgically, the same amount of angulation change occurs with an increase in the maxillary incisor angulation and a decrease in the mandibular incisor angulation (. Fig.27.6).
If the maxilla is segmentalized at surgery in the HOP facial type, then the presurgical orthodontic goals, rela­tive to the maxillary incisor angulation, are not as criti­cal as they are for a one-piece maxilla. If the maxilla is sectioned bilaterally, between the lateral incisors and canines, the following movements can be accomplished: (1) optimal maxillary incisor angulation in the nal
surgical position; (2) adjustments for tooth size discrep­ancies between the maxillary and mandibular anterior teeth; (3) corrections of transverse, vertical, and antero­posterior arch discrepancies; and (4) leveling the curves of Spee and Wilson.
27.3.2 Surgical Decrease oftheOPA
In the HOP facial type, the indicated surgical correction should include a CCWR of the MMC. In open bite cases or deep bite cases, the maxillary OPA and the mandibular OPA may be different from each other and should be evaluated independently. For illustrative pur­poses, a Class I occlusion case is used with the maxillary incisor edge as the center of rotation (. Fig.27.6). The anatomical changes that occur with CCWR of the MMC include the following: (1) OPA decreases; (2) mandibular plane angle decreases; (3) maxillary incisor angulation increases (the same amount of degrees that the maxillary OPA decreases); (4) mandibular incisor angulation decreases (the same amount of degrees that the mandibular OPA decreases); (5) projection of the chin increases relative to the lower incisor edges; (6) pos­terior facial height may increase; (7) prominence of the mandibular angles may increase; (8) perinasal area moves posteriorly relative to the maxillary incisor edges; (9) incisal guidance and canine protected occlusion improves, and posterior working and nonworking inter­ferences are eliminated; and (10) oropharyngeal airway increases.
The center of rotation affects the aesthetic relation­ship of the jaws with the other facial structures. If the center of rotation is at the maxillary incisor edge, as in
.
Fig.27.6, the perinasal area, subnasale area, and the
nasal tip move posteriorly and the chin comes forward. If rotation is around point A or higher, then the perina­sal area and the nose are less affected, but the maxillary incisor edges come forward, increasing the A-P support to the upper lip, and the chin also comes further for­ward. When decreasing the OPA for CCWR and advanc­ing the mandible, the oropharyngeal airway increases substantially. There is a signicant aesthetic improve­ment that decreasing the OPA can make with the most notable change in forward projection of the mandible and chin.
27.3.3 Mandibular Surgery First:
Sequencing withHealthy TMJs
When the OPA is surgically decreased, it is usually easier to perform the mandibular osteotomies rst, creating bilateral posterior open bites as the posterior mandible is moved downward and usually forward to its new posi-

The anatomical changes that occur with CCWR of the MMC include the following: [1] OPA decreases; [2] maxillary incisor angulation increases (the same amount of degrees that the maxillary OPA decreases); [3] mandibular incisor angulation decreases (the same amount of degrees that the mandibular OPA decreases); [4] projec­tion of the chin increases relative to the lower incisor edges; and [5] perinasal area moves posteriorly relative to the maxillary incisor edges

tion with an intermediate surgical splint. Although many surgeons prefer to perform the maxillary osteoto­mies rst, this sequencing makes the surgery much more difcult as then a signicant anterior open bite must be developed as the posterior maxilla is repositioned down­ward to its new position, rotating the mandible down­ward and backward with the intermediate splint creating a substantial anterior open bite. Then, the mandibular osteotomies are completed, but the subsequent CCWR of the mandible and application of MMF may place excessive stress on the maxilla and could cause some maxillary displacement, even in the presence of rigid xation, resulting in a suboptimal outcome.
Thus, sequencing the mandible rst can be a signi­cant advantage for CCWR procedures and would prog­ress as follows in the presence of healthy TMJs: (1) bilateral mandibular ramus sagittal split osteotomies
and removal of third molars if present; (2) application of intermediate splint and MMF; (3) application of mandibular rigid xation; (4) removal of MMF and intermediate splint; (5) maxillary osteotomies, mobiliza­tion, removal of third molars if present, segmentation if indicated, and application of palatal splint; (6) intrana­sal partial turbinectomies, septoplasty, etc., if indicated; (7) maximization of occlusal t and placement of MMF; (8) application of maxillary rigid xation and bone grafting if indicated; (9) removal of MMF; and (10) ancillary procedures if indicated such as genioplasty and rhinoplasty.
When the OPA is decreased, it is much easier to set the mandible rst into its nal position, with bilateral mandibular ramus sagittal split osteotomies, creating bilateral posterior open bites. An intermediate splint will align the mandible in its new position, and then rigid xation is applied to the mandible. Usually a six­hole Z-plate with 2-mm-diameter monocortical screws provides adequate stability for mandibular setbacks and for most mandibular advancements (.
Fig.27.7).
However, for large advancements, one or two bone screws can be placed in the ascending ramus for addi­tional stability. Performing the mandibular surgery rst makes the maxillary surgery much easier with better positional accuracy. Stabilization of the maxilla is achieved with four bone plates and grafting with bone or porous block hydroxyapatite to ll any osseous defects. In some cases, the vertical height of the ramus may be increased. However, because most of the cases requiring CCWR are skeletal and occlusal Class II mal­occlusions, the distal segment moves inferior but ante­rior to the pterygoid- masseteric sling. In Class III HOP skeletal and occlusal relations, because the ramus por­tion of the distal segment must move down through the sling, the pterygoid- masseteric sling can be split to allow the posteroinferior aspect of the distal segment to rotate down through the sling. The bone eventually remodels back up to the height of the sling. With these techniques of CCWR of the MMC, the muscles of mastication are not lengthened and remain in their original positions. Rigid xation eliminates the require­ment for postsurgery MMF, and usually light-guiding elastics are all that are necessary to control the occlu­sion after surgery.
27.3.4 TMJ Evaluation andTreatment
Considerations
Evaluation of the status of the TMJs before surgery is very important for outcome stability, particularly when surgery is contemplated to decrease the OPA.Surgical

CCWR of the MMC lengthens the functional moment arm (mandible), thereby increasing loading to the TMJs as a result of stretch and tension of the suprahyoid muscles, periosteum, skin, and other soft tissue ele­ments. It may take several months for the soft tissues to adapt and reestablish a state of equilibrium. If the TMJs are healthy and stable, they should be able to withstand the increased loading through the adaptation phase. If TMJ pathology is present, then skeletal and occlusal stability are at risk. Comprehensive assessment and appropriate management of patients with preexist­ing TMJ disorder is so important so that the joints can be properly treated and will be stable when the surgery is completed.
Al-Moriassi and Wolford [22] published a system­atic review and meta-analysis comparing the stability of CCWR to CWR in the correction of dentofacial deformities and showed that these techniques are equally stable and predictable orthognathic surgical procedures when the TMJs are healthy and stable. In the presence of uncorrected TMJ pathology, orthogna­thic surgery outcomes for CCWR or CWR may be unpredictable relative to stability, function, and pain factors.

bility of CCWR of the MMC in the presence of healthy TMJs or pathological TMJs. The result of this meta­analysis suggests that the CCWR of the MMC is a sta­ble procedure for patients with healthy TMJs and patients undergoing concomitant TMJ reconstruction with the Mitek anchor technique or patient-tted total TMJ prostheses. Surgical results may be unstable in the presence of untreated TMJ disc displacement and when TMJ status is not assessed.
27.3.5 TMJ Conditions That Can Aect
Surgical Outcomes forCCWR oftheMMC
Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorders or pathol­ogy and dentofacial deformities commonly coexist. The TMJ pathology may be the causative factor of the jaw deformity, or develop as a result of the jaw deformity, or the two entities may develop independent of each other. Common TMJ pathologies that can coexist with or cre­ate HOP facial morphologies include (1) articular disc dislocation; (2) adolescent internal condylar resorption (AICR); (3) reactive arthritis; (4) condylar hyperplasia; (5) ankylosis; (6) congenital deformation or absence of
