Objective: This study aimed at evaluating the changes in mandibular arch widths and buccolingual inclinations of mandibular posterior teeth after rapid maxillary expansion (RME). Methods: Baseline and post expansion cone-beam computed tomographic (CBCT) images of patients who initially had bilateral posterior cross-bite and underwent RME with a banded type expander were assessed in this study. The patients included 9 boys (mean age: 13.97 1.17 years) and 11 girls (mean age: 13.53 2.12 years). Images obtained 6 months after retention were available for 10 of these patients. Eighteen angular and ...Daha fazlası
Objective: To evaluate lower incisor position and bony support between
patients with Class II average- and high-angle malocclusions and compare
with the patients presenting Class I malocclusions. Methods: CBCT records of
79 patients were divided into 2 groups according to sagittal jaw relationships:
Class I and II. Each group was further divided into average- and high-angle
subgroups. Six angular and 6 linear measurements were performed. Independent
samples t-test, Kruskal–Wallis, and Dunn post-hoc tests were performed for
statistical comparisons. Results: Labial alveolar bone th ...Daha fazlası
