Objectives: The aim of this study was to evaluate differences in craniofacial morphology,
head posture and hyoid bone position between mouth breathing (MB) and nasal breathing
(NB) patients.
Methods: Mouth breathing patients comprised 34 skeletal Class I subjects with a mean age of
12.8 ± 1.5 years (range: 12.0–15.2 years). Thirty-two subjects with skeletal Class I relationship were
included in the NB group (mean 13.5 ±1.3 years; range: 12.2–14.8 years). Twenty-seven measurements
(15 angular and 12 linear) were used for the craniofacial analysis. Additionally, 12 measurements
were evalu ...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
To evaluate the shear bond strength (SBS), fracture mode, wire pull out (WPO) resistance and microleakage between low-shrinking and conventional composites used as a lingual retainer adhesive. Methods: A total of 120 human mandibular incisor teeth, extracted for periodontal reasons, were collected. Sixty of them were separated into two groups. To determine the SBS, either Transbond-LR (3M-Unitek) or Silorane (3M-Espe) was applied to the lingual surface of the teeth by packing the material into standard cylindrical plastic matrices (Ultradent) to simulate the lingual retainer bonding area. To t ...Daha fazlası
Amaç: Bu çalışmada, süt dişlerinde; kalsiyum hidroksit (KH) ve mineral trioksit agregat (MTA) vital amputasyon uygulamalarının klinik ve radyolojik olarak değerlendirilmesi amaçlandı. Gereç ve Yöntemler: Yaşları 6-10 yıl arasında değişen 64 çocuğun, derin dentin çürüğü teşhisi konulan ve amputasyon tedavisi gereksinimi olduğu düşünülen toplam 64 alt süt azı dişi, KH ve MTA amputasyonu uygulanmak üzere rastgele iki çalışma grubuna ayrıldı. Tedavilerin tamamlanmasının ardından dişler, 3'er aylık aralıklarla 1 yıl boyunca klinik ve radyolojik olarak takip edildi. Bulgular: Klinik başarı, KH grubu ...Daha fazlası
Objective: To evaluate the root resorption after rapid maxillary expansion (RME) via cone-beam
computed tomography (CBCT).
Materials and Methods: Records of 25 patients who had undergone RME with tooth-borne
banded expander were obtained from the archive of the orthodontic department. CBCT data were
reconstructed with surface and volume rendering, and the volumetric images were manipulated to
display the root surfaces from various orientations. On these three-dimensional images, permanent
first molars and first and second premolars were segmented, and their roots were isolated.
Volumes ...Daha fazlası
