Radiographic cephalometry assessment of the linear and angular parameters on cranial base in children with skeletal class III

Abstract

There were no significant differences in the parameter values on the cranial base between the groups. There was a significant correlation of the main angle of the cranial base with the angles of sagital position of the jaws in the group 1 only.

Cephalometric assessment of maxillary length in Serbian children with skeletal class III

“…The authors often point out that the maxillary retrognatism is usually masked and cannot be recorded through angular analysis, due to the changed length and angulations of the cranial base, which affect the position of the point nasion, directly responsible for the size of many indicators of sagittal maxillary position (SNA, FHNA, ANV...) [11][12][13] . Therefore, some authors prefer to use linear measures, which do not represent actual anatomical length of the jaw bones, but a linear distance from the tip of the condylary process to the body limit of the jaw bone and its alveolar processus (total length), or the distance between the farthest anatomical points, or their structures, which limit the bodies of the jaw bones.…”

Size of lower jaw as an early indicator of skeletal class III development

“…Rendgendijagnostički postupak podrazumevao je izradu ortopantomografskog i profilnog rendgenkefalometrijskog snimka. Rendgenkefalometrijsko snimanje svih ispitanika vršeno je pod identičnim uslovima, prema standardnoj proceduri 24 .…”

Analysis of variation of sagittal position of the jaw bones in skeletal class III malocclusion

“…Svim ispitanicima u injena je gnatometrijska analiza gipsanih studijskih modela na osnovu anatomskih otisaka vilica. Potom je sprovedena rendgen dijagnostika koja je podrazumevala izradu i analizu ortopantomografskih i profilnih telerendgenskih snimaka glave u njenom prirodnom položa-ju, po standardnoj proceduri 15 . Na telerendgenskim snimcima odre ene su relevantne kefalometrijske ta ke, prave i uglovi, koji su koriš eni u kefalometrijskim merenjima, (slika 1).…”

“…To je ustanovljeno i u našem predhodnom istraživanju, gde ispitanici sa skeletnom klasom III nisu imali zna ajno ve e prose ne vrednosti ugla SNB, od onih sa skeletnom klasom I 15 . Rezultati ovog istraživanja pokazali su da je prose na vrednost ugla mandibularnog prognatizma kod dece sa skeletnom klasom III bila normalna, dok je kod odraslih ispitanika bila nešto iznad njegovih normalnih vrednosti.…”
