Q

Wits appraisal, why is it used

A

Measures position of one jaw with respect to the other (apical base)
1-Draw the occlusal plane as a line that crosses the tips of the mandibular first molar and premolars
2-Project A on the occlusal plane: Draw a line that crosses A and is perpendicular to the occlusal plane; fine the point where the perpendicular line crosses the occlusal plane and call this point AO
3-Do the same fo B and call this point BO
4-Measure the distance from BO to AO: if BO is behind AO, give the distance a negative sign; if BO is in front, give the distance a positive sign.

74
Q

When does activation of the exapander begin in a SARPE

A

Activation of expander begins 5-7 days after surgery at 0.5 mm/day
-One turn 0.25 mm 2x/day

75
Q

Where is a SARPE placed?

A

Can be tooth/bone borne expander

76
Q

What are the probably sources of bleeding in a LeFort I osteotomy?

A

1-Pterygoid venous plexus
2-Descending palatine artery
3-Sphenopalatine artery
4-Internal maxillary artery
5-Posterior alveolar artery

77
Q

How can one reduce bleeding to an area after a LeFort downfracture

A

1-Put the patient in Reverse T (10 degrees)
2-Local vasoconstrictors (Injection of epi around the wound), application of cocaine, oxymetazoline on nasal mucosa
3-Hypotension

78
Q

Where the DPA descend through

A

The descending palatine artery descends through the pterygopalatine canal, emerging from he greater palatine froarmen.
-The LeFort procedure breaks the ptergyopalatine canal horizontally placing the vessel at risk.
-An overt injury requires ligation or clips.

79
Q

Unwanted Fx in a Lefort

A

-To the skull base
-Through the septum and the cribriform plate
-Horizontal fx of pterygoid process can leave the end of the process and medial ptergyoid muscle attached to the maxilla and limit maxillary advancement; if this occurs, separate the pterygoid process form the tuberosity.

80
Q

What is anosmia and how is it caused in a LeFort

A

Fx of the cribriform plate, loss of smell

81
Q

What can cause blindness in a LeFort osteotomy?

A

1-Base of skull fx
2-Hypoperfusion of the optic nerve
3-Arterial aneurysm

82
Q

T/F: Data encourages ax after LeFort?

A

True

83
Q

Silk Deficiency

A

-One or more vessels not ligated, cauterized or welded at surgery

84
Q

What are late postoperative bleeds in a LeFort caused from?

A

1-Clot lysis around occult vessel injury
2-Rupture of false aneurysm or AV fistula

85
Q

Risks of surgery and delayed healing for a LeFort osteotomy

A

1-Inferior maxillary repositionig
2-Large movements
3-Bruxism
4-Unoperatied mandible
5-Hardware failure
6-Poor blood supply
7-Heavy elastics
8-Occlusal interferences

86
