Abstract :
Condylar agenesis is a rare case involving developmental disturbances related to growth of mandible, facial aesthetics, dentition development, muscle deformation and occlusal problems. As such this is a rare condition and there is no internationally accepted protocol for the same. This article is a description of bilateral condylar agenesis with orthognathic protocol involving presurgical orthodontics and genioplasty. This case report also evaluates pre and post treatment muscle functions with electromyography and gives an overall treatment approach related to functional efficiency, structural balance and esthetic harmony.
