Mandibular widening by distraction osteogenesis has recently been shown to be a very predictable, successful, and stable procedure with limited morbidity. One indication for mandibular widening by distraction osteogenesis is a Brodie bite (scissors or buccal crossbite). This case report demonstrates a technique used to treat a 12-year-old girl with a true unilateral buccal crossbite (no functional shift). It details how distraction osteogenesis can successfully treat unilateral problems with a distractor, a splint, and elastics. Details on this treatment technique have not been previously published.
