Individuals with facial paralysis of 6 months or more without evidence of clinical or electromyographic improvement have been successfully reanimated utilizing an orthodromic temporalis transfer in conjunction with end-to-side cross-face nerve grafts. The temporalis muscle insertion is released from the coronoid process of the mandible and sutured to a fascia lata graft that is secured distally to the commissure and paralyzed hemilip. The orthodromic transfer of the temporalis muscle overcomes the concave temporal deformity and zygomatic fullness produced by the turning down of the central third of the muscle (Gillies procedure) while yielding stronger muscle contraction and a more symmetric smile. The muscle flap is combined with cross-face sural nerve grafts utilizing end-to-side neurorrhaphies to import myelinated motor fibers to the paralyzed muscles of facial expression in the midface and perioral region. Cross-face nerve grafting provides the potential for true spontaneous facial motion. We feel that the synergy created by the combination of techniques can perhaps produce a more symmetrical and synchronized smile than either procedure in isolation.Nineteen patients underwent an orthodromic temporalis muscle flap in conjunction with cross-face (buccal-buccal with end-to-side neurorrhaphy) nerve grafts. To evaluate the symmetry of the smile, we measured the length of the two hemilips (normal and affected) using the CorelDRAW X3 software. Measurements were obtained in the pre- and postoperative period and compared for symmetry.There was significant improvement in smile symmetry in 89.5 % of patients.Orthodromic temporalis muscle transfer in conjunction with cross face nerve grafts creates a synergistic effect frequently producing an aesthetic, symmetric smile.This journal requires that authors assign a level of evidence to each article.

INTRODUÇÃO: A paralisia facial periférica (PFP) consiste no acometimento do sétimo nervo craniano, de forma aguda, podendo ser precedida por dor na região mastoidiana e resultando em paralisia completa ou parcial da mímica facial. É, na sua grande maioria, de causa idiopática ou apresenta diversas etiologias como diabetes mellitus, hipertensão arterial, herpes zoster, viroses, otites médias, infecções (lepra, sífilis, doença de Lyme), sarcoidose, traumatismo e tumores. Apesar da paralisia facial periférica ter sido descrita em 1821, por Sir Charles Bell, ainda hoje existe muita controvérsia a respeito da etiologia e tratamento. A incidência da PFP encontra-se entre 20 a 30 casos por 100 mil habitantes, com prevalência ligeiramente maior entre as mulheres. Baseado nessas premissas, este estudo teve por objetivo avaliar a evolução de pacientes com paralisia facial periférica submetidos a um protocolo de reabilitação. METODOLOGIA: No estudo foram incluídos 30 pacientes com diagnóstico de paralisia facial periférica idiopática, atendidos no Centro de Estudos e Reabilitação em Fisioterapia (CEAFIR), da FCT-UNESP, campus de Presidente Prudente. O presente estudo adotou como procedimento fisioterapêutico os protocolos I, II, III e IV. Antes de realizar qualquer técnica, abaixo mencionada, foi explicado ao paciente cada passo, para evitar surpreendê-lo. Conforme os pacientes apresentassem melhora e evoluções nas reavaliações elétricas, foram feitas recomendações de exercícios para mímica facial, em frente ao espelho. As repetições eram aumentadas gradativamente, posteriormente os mesmos exercícios, mas agora ativos resistidos. RESULTADOS: Os valores das variáveis reobase, cronaxia e acomodação, nos garantem que o protocolo usado permite avaliar a condução nervosa do facial, o grau de evolução da condução nervosa, bem como acompanhar...

During the orthodontic correction planning in addition to dental-jaw correction, facial aesthetics is the orthodontist's and patient's major concern. To prevent facial aesthetics damage is really important to take into account the type of craniofacial growth: mesofacial (balanced), dolichofacial (vertical) or brachyfacial (horizontal). We evaluated 152 documentation files from the Department of Orthodontics of Dental University of Sao Jose dos Campos- UNESP in order to analyze what kind of growth occurs in most Class I malocclusions, Class II and Class III Angle of treated individuals from 6 to 12 years old. From the randomly collected samples, 15 of them belonged to Class I Angle malocclusions; 123 belonged to Angle Class II and 14 to Class III malocclusion. The results showed that in Class I, 66.67% were classified as dolicocephalic; in Class II, 64.23% were classified as dolicocephalic and in Class III, 50% were brachycephalic. We conclude that the dolichofacial was the type which ocurred the most, both in females and males and both in malocclusion Class I and Class II. The brachyfacial type most occurred in Class III malocclusion and the mesofacial type occurred in smaller numbers in the three malocclusions studied

The knowledge of the facial growth trend is very important in orthodontic treatment. A lateral headfilm is recommended in all young patients undergoing a preorthodontic guidance program to anticipate the best time to begin any mechanical procedures and the possibilities to determine the type of facial growth trend. In type A it will be observed that the middle and lower face are growing forward and downward in unison, with no change in ANB angle. Type B growth trends reveals that growth is downward and forward, with the middle face growing forward more rapidly than the lower and in type C the lower face is growing downward and forward more rapidly than the middle face revealing a decrease in the size of the ANB angle.
