Nasomaxillary Expansion
The airway is, in essence, confined by the upper and lower jaws. By moving the upper jaw (maxilla) and lower jaw (mandible) forward, the entire airway can be enlarged.
Maxillomandibular Advancement
By widening the upper and lower jaws, maxillomandibular expansion enlarges the nasal and retropalatal airway, stiffens the soft palate, and thus creates more intraoral space.
Orthognathic Surgery
Orthognathic surgery involves surgery of the maxilla and mandible. Since the maxilla and mandible are in intimate association with the surrounding teeth as well as structures of the face and airway, the position and size of the maxilla and mandible significantly influence the dental occlusion, facial esthetics and airway dimension.
