Abstract

Bimaxillary corrective surgery has proven to be an extremely versatile technique for resolving even the most difficult facial proportion disorders. Three-dimensional planning options have given this technique another enormous boost in recent years. The combination with distraction techniques, but also the mandible-first concept expanded the therapeutic spectrum again, so that bimaxillary corrections are often presented to patients today as the first therapeutic option. Nevertheless, the underlying indication for treatment of a position correction in the maxillofacial region must not be forgotten. The classification of facial types and typical growth patterns helps not to get lost in the rich combination possibilities.
