“…The 3D CBCT has been considered the gold standard to examine the transverse skeletal and dental dimension with high sensitivity and specificity [ 24 , 46 ]. The landmarks and analysis methods used in our study have been tested or slightly modified from the previous publications, demonstrating a high degree of reproducibility, and confirming the statistical suitability of the methods [ 12 , 15 , 32 , 47 , 48 , 49 , 50 , 51 , 52 ]. For the skeletal measurements, J-J and Ag-Ag have been used to compare the maxillo-mandibular transverse discrepancy in previous publications.…”

The aim of this study is to evaluate the longitudinal transverse growth of the maxillo-mandibular complex in untreated children using the Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT). Two sets of scans on 12 males (mean 8.75 years at T1 and 11.52 years at T2) and 18 females (mean 9.09 years at T1 and 10.80 years at T2) were analyzed using Dolphin 3D imaging. The transverse widths of various maxillary and mandibular skeletal landmarks and the dentoalveolar and dental landmarks at the level of first molars were measured. Overall, there were greater increases in the transverse dimension in the posterior than anterior portions of the maxilla and mandible. The increase in intergonial width of the mandible seems to be primarily due to the lengthening of the mandibular body. The dentoalveolar process at the first molar level increases at an equal rate corono-apically and is independent to the changes in molar inclination. When comparing maxillary dentoalveolar changes with that of the mandible, greater increases were noticed in the maxilla, which might be explained by the presence of sutural growth in the maxilla. Moreover, the first molars maintain their coordination with each other despite the differential increase in the maxillary and mandibular dentoalveolar processes.
