Book excerpt: The study was designed to evaluate facial asymmetry in skeletal class I, skeletal class II and skeletal class III, subjects using posteroanterior cephalometric analysis. The total sample included in the study was 60 subjects which are sub-divided into three groups of 20 each. The conclusion of the study was: a. Maxillary width was found to be significantly greater in skeletal class II than skeletal class I subjects. b. Mandibular width, lower facial height and mandibular comparison was found to be significantly greater in skeletal class III than skeletal class I subjects. c. Over all left side dominance was present which was not statistically significant.

Download or read book Evaluation of Skeletal Asymmetry in Patients with Posterior Crossbites written by and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 77 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A posterior dental crossbite, in which one or more of the posterior teeth are locked in an abnormal coronal relationship with the opposing teeth of the opposite arch, is a common malocclusion that affects orthodontic patients. Early interceptive treatment is recommended for patients exhibiting a posterior dental crossbite, with a centric relation (CR) and centric occlusion (CO) shift, since it has been suggested that a prolonged mandibular shift resulting from dental interferences may result in an asymmetrical growth of one or both of the jaws. The purpose of this study was to determine if patients with an untreated skeletal and dental posterior crossbite display skeletal asymmetry based upon evaluation of a posteroanterior (PA) radiographic, utilizing constructed reference lines. Sixty subjects where selected from patient files from the State University of New York at Buffalo orthodontic clinic. Thirty patients, 14 years of age and older, were selected for the crossbite group if there was the presence of a dental crossbite involving at least two posterior teeth as well as the presence of a skeletal posterior crossbite, based upon Ricketts PA cephalometric analysis as a ratio of J-J to Ag-Ag less than 0.75. Using the above criteria, thirty patients, 14 years of age and older were selected for the control group if they had a Class I malocclusion without a dental crossbite and skeletal posterior crossbite, based upon Ricketts PA cephalometric analysis as a ratio of J-J to Ag-Ag greater than 0.75. Evaluation of cranial skeletal asymmetry was made on PA cephalograms utilizing constructed reference lines. The observed differences between the ratio (JR-JL/RAG-LAG) of the control and crossbite groups were statistically significant (F = 113.624, df = 1, 56, p 0.001). The results for length of Ag along the vertical reference line showed no significant differences (p>0.05) between the right, and the left sides of the females and the males for both the control and the crossbite groups. The results for the asymmetry index indicated no significant differences (p 0.05) between the control and the crossbite groups. The results for surface area of the triangle indicated that no significant differences existed between the right, and the left sides of the females and the males for both the control and the crossbite groups (p 0.05). The present study is in agreement with those studies that found no link between posterior crossbite malocclusion and asymmetrical growth. Additional studies need to be performed in order to investigate further the true impact that a posterior crossbite has on cranial skeletal structures.

Download or read book The Surgery First Orthognathic Approach written by Jong-Woo Choi and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-01-20 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a comprehensive guide to the surgery-first orthognathic approach for patients with malocclusion and skeletal disharmony, which has been successfully applied by the authors in their practices over the past 15 years. The approach breaks with the time-tested principles of traditional orthognathic surgery in that corrective bone surgery is performed first, without the removal of dental compensations, followed by orthodontic finishing. All aspects are covered with the aid of numerous illustrations, the aim being to provide surgeons with a systematic educational tool that will enable them to introduce the approach into their own practice. In addition, the book addresses one of the hot issues in orthodontics, occlusal plane-altering orthognathic surgery, in which surgical modification of the occlusal plane is employed to treat various types of dentofacial deformity and improve facial proportions. This promises to become a very powerful tool in modern orthognathic surgery.
