Abstract:

In this case report, we present a patient with idiopathic scoliosis who had been treated with a traditional Chenault corset for seven years without good results. After starting with osteopathy associated with jaw functional orthopedics as adjuvant therapeutics, in 11 months, the difference in posture was evident. It enhanced the effectiveness of the treatment and provided a more complete equilibrium to the patient. Jaw functional orthopedic appliances are able to change the maxillo-mandibular relationship and improve the physiology of the masticatory apparatus, including the position of the condyle inside the articular cavity. Since mandible posture has a great influence on body posture, it can be very helpful as a co-adjuvant therapy.
