The majority of patients exhibited stable treatment outcomes. Maxillary advancement procedures were found to be less susceptible to relapse-resulting in more stable outcomes-and mandibular setback distances correlated positively with the degree of the relapse. No statistically significant differences were observed between the procedures conducted in both jaws versus in the lower jaw only, or in the extent of upper-jaw repositioning.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
