Keywords:

Surgical procedures are the most popular choice of treatment for beta-thalassemia major patients. Although these procedures could be life-threatening, orthodontic treatment modality has received little or no attention in the past five decades. Only two case reports have described the treatment of these patients with fixed orthodontics in conjunction with orthopaedic appliances. The following report describes a combination of orthodontic and functional appliances for the treatment of moderate dentofacial deformities in an adolescent male patient suffering from beta thalassemia major.
