Hyaluronic acid filler as an ally on orthodontic cases
Eliana Rossini Ribeiro
CEO, Rossini Health and Esthetic, Brazil
The hyaluronic acid is a naturally produced substance present in the human body, filling spaces between the cells and keeping the
skin smooth, elastic and hydrated. It has many functions, including the replacement of lost tissue due to aging and the volumizing
effect of different facial structures, minimizing asymmetries. Another use for the hyaluronic acid is to complement orthodontic cases,
in order to minimize facial disharmonies especially on surgical cases. Patients are not always prepared psychologically or financially
to do a surgical procedure and it demands a long time for total recovery. Two clinical cases are presented: (1) 46-year-old patient
unhappy with her facial disharmony due to Angle Class II malocclusion decided not to perform the orthognathic surgery and wanted
to minimize malocclusion effects on her appearance. It was proposed a treatment with hyaluronic acid filler in the mentolabial furrow,
to minimize the depth aspect of the region and the disharmony on the lower lip. (2) 25-year-old patient, under orthodontic treatment
for anterior teeth crowding. Class I occlusion; Class II profile features caused by a lower growth and development of the chin. In this
case, the application of hyaluronic acid was made on the anterior part of the chin aiming at aesthetic and proportional facial profile.
