Tom had IMDO distraction jaw surgery a form of orthognathic jaw surgery & orthodontic braces

Comments: Tom had jaw distraction surgery through IMDO, which is an orthognathic correction procedure. This video explains the link between dental overbite and mandibular hypoplasia, and the coordination of two very different professionals being the orthodontist and the jaw (or rather maxillofacial) surgeon. Mandibular hypoplasia is a common condition that effects about 25% of all people. It presents in most people as mild or moderate small jaw, but some people (~10% of this group) have the severe form of the condition. IMDO is a simple and very effective means of re-adjusting the mandible to a normal size and length, and during early adolescence. By preceding orthodontics it also simplifies orthodontic treatment. IMDO corrects not only the bite relationship (by correcting the excessive dental overbite), but also opens the airway, and normalises facial proportions and lip relationships. The improvement in socialisation is also very dramatic.
