Overview

Case report highlights orthodontic intervention addressing craniofacial asymmetry in a patient with parry-romberg syndrome, suggesting early multidisciplinary management may enhance outcomes.

Key Points

  • Orthodontic treatment improved facial balance and occlusion in a 24-year-old female with parry-romberg syndrome.
  • The patient demonstrated symptoms like hemifacial atrophy, localized alopecia, and an anterior crossbite on the unaffected side.
  • Despite significant craniofacial asymmetry, neurological deficits were not present, emphasizing the condition's complexity.
  • Early recognition of parry-romberg syndrome and multidisciplinary care are crucial for favorable functional and psychosocial outcomes.
