Abstract

When performing orthodontic treatment with accompanying Temporomandibular Disorders (TMD), it is common for the jaw position achieved through orthosis to relapse if orthodontic treatment is initiated immediately after the reduction or improvement of symptoms. As a result, TMD may recur after orthodontic treatment. Therefore, in this case, we would like to present a case where orthodontic treatment was conducted while maintaining the improved jaw position achieved through orthosis, without relapse of the TMD symptoms.
