The long face syndrome: Vertical maxillary excess
American Journal of Orthodontics, 1976There is a clinically recognizable facial morphology, the long face syndrome, which has been incompletely described in the literature. On the basis of the clinical summary in thirty-one adults with this syndrome, an analysis of esthetics, skeletal morphology, and occlusion was undertaken.

Orthognathic surgery effects on maxillary growth in patients with vertical maxillary excess
American Journal of Orthodontics and Dentofacial Orthopedics, 1997This study assesses the effects of superior repositioning of the maxilla by LeFort I osteotomy on adolescent maxillary growth. A total of 48 patients, 23 who were stabilized with rigid fixation (RF) and 25 stabilized with wire fixation (WF), were compared with closely matched unoperated controls. Comparisons were made for the presurgical intervals (2.3

Histochemical study of the masseter muscle in patients with vertical maxillary excess
Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, 1984This study was designed to examine the morphologic properties of the masseter muscle in individuals with vertical maxillary excess (VME). The deep surface of the anterior aspect of the superficial masseter was biopsied in nine patients at the time of corrective surgery. Individual muscle fibers were classified as slow-twitch-oxidative (SO), fast-twitch-

The Surgical Correction of Vertical Maxillary Excess (Long Face Syndrome)
Annals of Plastic Surgery, 1982The surgical correction of vertical maxillary excess is a relatively new technique. Vertical maxillary excess (VME) may exist alone or in combination with a horizontal mandibular deficiency with or without an anterior open bite. The facial contour is characterized by a long, tapering face with anterior and posterior maxillary overgrowth, a narrow alar ...

Masseter muscle adaptation following surgical correction of vertical maxillary excess
Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, 1989This study was designed to examine the adaptive response of the human masseter muscle following surgical correction of abnormal facial form. Biopsies of the deep surface of the anterior superficial masseter muscle were obtained from five patients demonstrating vertical maxillary excess (VME), one at the time of corrective surgery, and a second at a ...
