Botulinum Toxin Injection to Treat Masticatory Movement Disorder Corrected Mandibular Asymmetry in a Growing Patient.
Abstract
An 8-year-old girl with masticatory movement disorder received botulinum toxin-A (BTX-A) injection and orthodontic treatment. She showed facial asymmetry with right masseter muscle hyperplasia. After BTX-A injection combined with orthodontic treatment, the transverse discrepancy between right and left maxillary dentition completely corrected. Cone-beam computed tomography images revealed that the height of the left mandibular ramus had increased by 2.3 mm, considerably more than on the right side, the discrepancy in mandibular ramus height between the left and the right decreased dramatically. In a short period, BTX-A injection combined with orthodontic treatment corrected a mandibular movement disorder with asymmetric mandibular growth in a growing patient.
