The Holtzman technique is a specialized method in orthodontics used to correct severe dental malocclusions. Other synonyms for the Holtzman technique include "surgical-orthodontic treatment," "surgical correction of dentofacial deformities," "orthognathic surgery," and "maxillofacial surgery." The procedure involves realigning the jaws to improve the bite and facial appearance of the patient. The Holtzman technique is usually recommended for patients with severe dental problems that cannot be corrected through traditional orthodontic treatments. The main goal of the procedure is to improve the function of the teeth, jaws, and temporomandibular joint (TMJ), as well as enhance the patient's facial aesthetics.
