Four Bicuspid Extractions Accelerates Facial Aging



The before photos (left side) show the signs of facial aging, deep depressions in the naso-labial, marionette and pre-jowl areas.
The after photos (right side) show a reduction in these depressions after treatment with the Homeoblock™ appliance




The intraoral photos indicate that the patient had four bicuspid extractions. Here we see alveolar morphogenesis and better tooth alignment in the upper and lower dental arches after 12 months.


The red after face is superimposed over the blue before face


We see an increase in volume of 0.29 cc after treatment



Morphometric analysis shows a general increase of 2.3 mm around the eyes, across the midface and in the mandible. This patient with 4 bicuspid extractions had a reduced facial volume and signs of aging accelerated by the extractions. The facial volume was enhanced and signs of aging reduced with the Homeoblock™ treatment.
