How is this one just not a typical maxillary/midface underdevelopment case? She looks horizontally deficient rather than vertically IMO and her
Short face syndrome cased by one or more of -
1) vertically deficient anterior height of the mandible,
2) retropositioned mandible with pronounced vertical overbite,
3) retropositioning of the maxilla with overclosure of the mandible
4) maxillary vertical deficiency and short middle third of the face
I think it generally refers to a vertical deficiency of the maxilla and often a short mandibular ramus too. Often presents with deep overbite. Face looks squarish and short in the middle and bottom thirds.
