Abstract:

O rthotropics is a preventative, non-extraction treatment that aims to guide the growth of the jaws to prevent problems developing in the first place. A form of early interceptive Orthodontics, the underlying premise of Orthotropics has been to identify the causes of the malocclusion with the aim of gaining a permanent correction with 32 teeth in all cases without retention. Gaining some phenomenal facial changes and treating cases deemed only suitable for surgery Orthotropics has been steadily been growing in popularity and scientific recognition, only held back by the difficultly of motivating and enacting permanent postural change in the young children. By piecing together the little good quality science available and starting from a blank canvas Orthotropics casts aside most of the presumptions contemporary orthodontics has been built on. It introduces dental and orthodontic professionals the concept and problems associated with ?incorrect? facial growth and different methods to change facial growth. It will put forward a unifying theory drawing from key main stream orthodontic literature, original experimentation, life sciences, experiments of nature and case examples that explains the aetiology, pathology, and permanent cure of malocclusion. Examples of Orthotropics cases showing the best facial changes ever produced by any non-surgical therapy, often better than surgical therapy, with 32 well aligned teeth that have been stable for decades post treatment with no retention are given Often called the most simple complex system it is like no other form of orthodontic therapy and needs to be heard to be believed.
