Abstract:
ABSTRACT Objective: To analyze radiographic predictors for lower third molar eruption among subjects with different anteroposterior skeletal relations and of different age groups. Materials and Methods: In total, 300 lower third molars were recorded on diagnostic digital orthopantomograms (DPTs) and lateral cephalograms (LCs). The radiographs were grouped according to sagittal intermaxillary angle (ANB), subject age, and level of lower third molar eruption. The DPT was used to analyze retromolar space, mesiodistal crown width, space/width ratio, third and second molar angulation (α, γ), third molar inclination (β), and gonion angle. The LC was used to determine ANB, angles of maxillar and mandibular prognathism (SNA, SNB), mandibular plane angle (SN/MP), and mandibular lengths. A logistic regression model was created using the statistically significant predictors. Results: The logistic regression analysis revealed a statistically significant impact of β angle and distance between gonion and gnathion (Go-Gn) on the level of lower third molar eruption (P < .001 and P < .015, respectively). The retromolar space was significantly increased in the adult subgroup for all skeletal classes. The lower third molar impaction rate was significantly higher in the adult subgroup with the Class II (62.3%) compared with Class III subjects (31.7%; P < .013). Conclusion: The most favorable values of linear and angular predictors of mandibular third molar eruption were measured in Class III subjects. For valid estimation of mandibular third molar eruption, certain linear and angular measures (β angle, Go-Gn), as well as the size of the retromolar space, need to be considered.

Abstract:
Background : As the basic biological relationship of form and function, changes in the normal pattern of nasopharyngeal space can profoundly affect the development of the craniofacial growth. The lateral cephalogram, part of the patient’s normal records for orthodontic treatment, may show some of these changes either at the initial examination or later during treatment. The validity of the information the lateral cephalogram may present, have been questioned previously. The aim of this study was to assess correlation between the area and the volume measurements of pharyngeal airway size in a lateral cephalogram and a 3-dimensional (3D) cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) scan in adolescent subjects. Materials and Methods : CBCT scan and a lateral cephalogram of 35 subjects which were taken within 1 week were included in this study. Airway area of the region of interest from the lateral cephalogram and airway volume over the same of region of interest from the CBCT scan were assessed for all patients. The correlation between the area and the volume measurements were evaluated statistically by Pearson’s correlation coefficient test. Mann Whitney U Test was used for comparing the area and the volume measurements in different sex. Results : Strong correlation was found between lateral cephalogram and CBCT measurements of pharyngeal airway. (r=0.831). Conclusion : Pharyngeal airway area on a lateral cephalogram is correlated strongly with volumetric data on CBCT images. Henceforth the use of CBCT images for volume measurements in orthodontic patients can aid in the better evaluation of airways and acted as a diagnostic instrument in this area.

Abstract:
Relevance. The problem of respiratory diseases has been studied for a long time by many specialists and remains relevant to this day. This problem has been of interest to researchers for many years due to several factors. In many studies, it was demonstrated, that a signifcant relationship exist between the upper airway condition and jaw growth, craniofacial skeleton and TMJ dysfunction. Lateral cephalometric radiographs (LCRs) have been used to assess skull parameters, jaw bones and teeth, the morphology of the upper airway, the severity of airways obstruction and adenoid size. The present study aimed to determine the reliability of LCRs compared to CBCT in the assessment of the upper respiratory tract in order to determine which variables are reliable for potential use in clinical diagnosis.Aim. To analyze the literature on the effectiveness of the using Lateral Cephalogram in the assessment of the upper airway.Materials and methods. Electronic search of articles was carried out using search engines and databases: Cyberleninka, eLIBRARY, Google Scholar, Pub Med, SCOPUS. The publication date criterion was selected from January 2010 to January 2021. The electronic search was conducted using the following keywords: lateral cephalogram, upper airway, cone-beam computed tomography. A total of 10 studies from the literature met the selection criteria.Results. CBCT provides a good estimate of the transverse dimensions and volumetric measurement of the airway space. Linear measurements of CBCT and LCRs were quite reliable and reproducible. The most diffcult to study and differentiate area is the oropharynx, the variability of the pharyngeal segment cannot be predicted by LCs. LCRs method is advisable for adenoid pathology diagnosis due to its fnancial acceptability and availability. The cephalometric headflm provides a good general overall indicator for nasopharyngeal airway patency, adenoidal hypertrophy.Conclusions. The traditional lateral cephalogram remains not only a standard, reproducible and cost-effective diagnostic method in orthodontics, but also a reliable initial tool for screening upper airway obstruction, studying the nasopharyngeal morphology and assessment of adenoid size. Based on our results, the measurement of the nasopharyngeal space on lateral cephalograms can be used as an initial screening method to estimate the nasopharynx volumes. The results demonstrate that a lateral cephalogram can provide valuable information about the severe limitations and nasopharyngeal morphology

Abstract:
This case report describes the successful surgical treatment of a patient diagnosed with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). A 55-year-old Caucasian male patient with a body mass index (BMI) of 25.6 kg/m2 sought treatment with a chief concern of excessive daytime sleepiness and fatigue. An initial polysomnography report showed moderate OSA with an apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) of 21.2 events/h, and Epworth Sleepiness Score (ESS) of 12/24. The patient was initially prescribed with CPAP treatment but was unable to tolerate treatment after a few months. Clinical and radiographic examination revealed a concave facial profile with maxillary retrognathism. Intraoral examination revealed generalized gingival recession, missing upper lateral incisors and lower first premolars, anterior crossbite, and maxillary transverse deficiency with bilateral posterior crossbite. The lateral cephalogram showed a narrow posterior airway space at the level of the base of the tongue. The patient was treated with maxillomandibular advancement (MMA) surgery to improve airway obstruction. Results showed balanced facial esthetic and stable occlusion with a complete resolution of the patient’s OSA and a post-operative improvement of AHI from 21.2 to 0.7 events/h and ESS from 12/24 to 3/24. The lowest oxyhemoglobin saturation during sleep was improved to 97%, and the BMI decreased from 25.6 to 25.2 kg/m2. These results suggest that MMA surgical procedure can be used as a definitive treatment for patients with maxillomandibular deficiency and OSA.

Abstract:
Introduction: Variation in growth pattern in different facial forms affect the space available for tooth eruption, therefore the mandibular third molar impaction has correlation with different skeletal facial types.Objective: To determine the position of impacted mandibular third molar in different skeletal facial types in Nepalese samples.Materials & Method: This cross sectional study was carried out on pre-treatment lateral cephalogram and orthopantomogram records of 207 orthodontic patients visiting Kantipur Dental College and Hospital. Age range of the sample was 16-33 years. Various facial forms were determined with the help of mandibular plane angle (SN-GoGn); for which Nemoceph software was used. Beta angle was used to determine the angle of impaction of mandibular third molar. Impaction pattern was classified as per Pell & Gregory and Winter’s system. SPSS version 20 was used for statistical analysis.Result: Overall rate of mandibular third molar impaction was 63.77% (11.11% unilateral and 52.66% bilateral impaction). The most common type of impaction bilaterally was mesioangular based on Winter’s classification, Class II Position B based on Pell & Gregory’s classification. Higher rate of mandibular third molar impaction was found in dolichofacial type of face (49.2%).Conclusion: Decreased mandibular third molar impactions are seen in brachyfacial type compared to mesofacial and dolichofacial types

Abstract:
OBJECTIVE: To determine the frequency of mandibular third molar impaction in different vertical skeletal facial types. METHODOLOGY: Data was collected using pre-treatment records including orthodontic files, pre-treatment lateral cephalograms and OPGs of 90 orthodontic patients. Patients from both genders were included. The age group of selected patients was 18-30 years. Vertical skeletal malocclusion was measured using facial angle and mandibular plane angle on cephalogram to group the subjects into Mesiofacial, Brachyfacial and Dolichofacial patients. Third molar eruption status was assessed using OPG. RESULTS: Results showed that erupted third molars were mostly found in brachyfacial patients. Among 32 erupted mandibular third molars, 16 belong to brachyfacial, 11 belonged to mesiofacial and 5 belonged to dolichofacial group. Complete impaction of mandibular third molar was most common among dolichofacial patients. Among 29 completely impacted mandibular third molars, 14 belong to dolichofacial, 9 belonged to mesiofacial and 6 belonged to brachyfacial group. No significant difference was found for partially impacted third molars among the three groups of facial types. There was higher prevalence of mandibular third molar impaction in females as compared to males. CONCLUSION: Frequency of third molar impaction was found to be highest in dolichofacial patients and lowest in brachyfacial patients due to forward direction of mandibular growth contributing to greater resorption of the anterior border of ramus and the additional space required for third molar eruption.

Abstract:
Objective: Third molar impaction is seen much more than impaction of any other tooth as they are the last teeth to erupt. Inadequate retromolar space and the direction of eruption may be contributing factors. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between third molar impaction and different skeletal face types. Subjects and Methods: Panoramic and lateral cephalometric radiographs of 158 orthodontic patients (aged 19–25 years) were retrieved from the archived records of the Necmettin Erbakan University Faculty of Dentistry, Konya, Turkey. Third molar impaction was classified on the basis of Winter’s classification. The skeletal facial type was determined by a measure of the angle created by the lines Ba-Na and Pt-Gn. The mean was 90 ± 2 and this value was regarded as mesofacial. An angle of > 93° was regarded as brachyfacial and an angle of < 87° as dolichofacial. Results: The overall presence of mandibular and maxillary third molar impactions was 65.2 and 38.6%, respectively. Although there was a statistically significant difference between different skeletal facial types and mandibular third molar impaction (p < 0.05), no statistically significant differences were observed between different skeletal facial types and maxillary third molar impaction (p > 0.05). Brachyfacials demonstrated a lower prevalence of third molar impaction than dolichofacials. Conclusions: Different skeletal face types were associated with mandibular third molar impaction. Brachyfacials, who have a greater horizontal facial growth pattern than dolichofacials, showed a lower prevalence of impacted mandibular third molars.

Abstract:
Ziel dieser retrospektiven Studie war die Untersuchung verschiedener Wachstumsvorgänge im Ober- und Unterkiefer jugendlicher Patienten, speziell die der retromolaren Räume, am Fernröntgenseitenbild. Für diese Studie wurden insgesamt 305 Fernröntgenseitenbilder der Polikliniken für Kieferorthopädie der Universitätskliniken Leipzig und Dresden mittels der Software OnyxCeph³™ von Image Instruments ausgewertet. Mit dieser Studie konnte gezeigt werden, dass die retromolaren Räume im Alter von 9 – 16 Jahren durchschnittlich annähernd linear und bei beiden Geschlechtern in gleichem Maße zunehmen. Für den mandibulären retromolaren Raum wurde anhand der gewonnenen Durchschnittswerte die vereinfachte Formel Lebensalter + 12 in mm entwickelt. Damit ist eine Einschätzung des retromolaren Platzangebots anhand des Alters möglich. Fast alle vermessenen Strecken korrelieren signifikant mit dem chronologischen Alter, die höchste Korrelation besteht dabei für den retromolaren Raum des Unterkiefers. Neben bereits in anderen Studien zum Zwecke der Altersdiagnostik untersuchten Strecken, wie der Unterkieferlänge, kann zukünftig auch der retromolare Raum zur Altersschätzung anhand des Fernröntgenseitenbildes herangezogen werden. Verschiedene Autoren empfehlen zur Altersschätzung eine Kombination mehrerer Parameter. Mit drei in dieser Studie bestimmten Parametern konnte für beide Geschlechter eine Formel zur Altersschätzung aufgestellt werden. Der Standardschätzfehler beträgt jeweils 1,05 Jahre (Jungen) bzw. 1,28 Jahre (Mädchen).
