Abstract

Introduction: Apart the issues about orofacial malformations, we have many studies about “dys”-type problems of orofacial area, mainly around the two orality’s definitions (communication and eating). Not so many about the global medical side of dysocclusions. And yet, there is a third vital emergency from birth and throughout the many neurodevelopmental steps: the need to deal with gravity to move and to stand upright. Throughout the sensorimotor steps, there is the parallel need to build the coordinated reference supports for correct orofacial and dental balances. Method: Throughout more than 40 years of study, and practice and experience in Pediatric Orthodontics, through my education in Bullinger’s early sensorimotor assessment (UNIL-Lausanne 2014), and through a personal continuous clinical research from 2015, I collect and compare pre-neo-and postnatal data for sensorimotor development with cranio-facial dysocclusions (more than 150 cases).
