“…26,27 We claim that, when intermaxillary elastics are not in use, operating room time is shortened; neither Erich's arches nor orthodontic brackets are necessary, the financial burden is reduced, oral hygiene is preserved, and the patient's quality of life is improved during the postoperative period. 21,28 Our postoperative results show that spontaneous occlusal adjustment occurred both on the vertical and transverse dimensions. Dental midline deviation improved from 4.07 ± 2.52 mm to 1.40 ± 1.12 mm, and cases with significant open bite ( > 2 mm) and posterior crossbite also decreased from 46.7% to 26.7% and 66.7% to 26.7%, respectively.…”

“…However, neither an orthognathic surgery nor intermaxillary elastics were used, and the spontaneous closure of the open bite was expected to occur in a reversed compensatory process in line with what occurs during the active hyperplastic stage 26,27. We claim that, when intermaxillary elastics are not in use, operating room time is shortened; neither Erich’s arches nor orthodontic brackets are necessary, the financial burden is reduced, oral hygiene is preserved, and the patient’s quality of life is improved during the postoperative period 21,28…”

Objectives: First, to investigate the clinical outcome of 'proportional condylectomy' for patients with active unilateral condylar hyperplasia without complementary treatment by intermaxillary elastics and, second, to examine their level of satisfaction regarding function and esthetics. Study Design: A retrospective observational descriptive study was conducted. All patients included in the study suffered from active unilateral condylar hyperplasia with a vertical component. The length of the condylar-ramus unit was measured on both sides by an multidetector computed tomography scan. The difference was calculated and resected from the hyperplastic condyle during the operation. Facial, occlusal, and skeletal changes were evaluated using photographic and radiologic records, and a satisfaction questionnaire regarding function and esthetics was completed. P < 0.05 was considered significant. Results: Fifteen patients were included in the study. The mean participants' age was 27.93 ± 13.06 years, and the mean followup duration was 12.40 ± 6.55 months. The mean chin deviation improved by 58.47% (P = 0.001). Mean lip commissure plane tilt was improved by 61.31% (P = 0.001). Six months postoperatively, all patients exhibited centered dental midlines (P = 0.001). Occlusal plane tilt was significantly improved by 70.02% (P = 0.001), and high patient satisfaction was recorded.Twenty-six percent (4/15) of patients did not require the complementary orthodontic treatment, and none of them required complementary orthognathic surgery. Conclusions: 'Proportional condylectomy' for patients with active unilateral vertical condylar hyperplasia without complementary treatment by intermaxillary elastics is a predictable procedure in terms of function and esthetics.

“…Clinically, the lower edge of the MF appears to be a more useful reference mark in OPGs. Observing the distance from the inferior border of the mandible to the lower edge of MF and using the approximate ratio of 3:1 can help to estimate conveniently the original height of the mandible before resorption [47,48].…”

Objective: To evaluate the association between type 2 diabetes mellitus and the reduction of mandibular residual ridge in completely edentulous patients wearing complete dentures and to investigate the effect of gender, age and years of edentulousness/ denture wearing on ridge resorption on both groups. Methods: Seventy-two (36 men and 36 women) with a mean age 63.5 years (range of 52 to 73 years) completely edentulous denture-wearing patients were included in this study. Of these, there were 40 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and 32 control subjects participated in the study. Resorption in the mandibular residual ridges was assessed by using the mental foramen and the inferior border of the mandible, as they appear in panoramic radiographs, as reference points using Wical and Swoope Analysis method. Measurements were performed using "Dijite" Digital Caliper. The amount of mandibular ridge resorption was calculated and correlated with type 2 diabetes mellitus and the results were compared with control group. Differences in gender, age and years of edentulousness were investigated. Statistical analysis was performed using SPSS (V11.0). A 2-sample t-test was used to evaluate the differences in mean values of mandibular ridge resorption between diabetics and controls. Level of significance was set at 0.05. Results: The mean mandibular residual ridge resorption of all participants is 8.0 mm (26.9%), diabetic group significantly (P < 0.01) had two times more resorption compared with control group (35.8% versus 18.0%). Females recorded greater amount of resorption in diabetics 49.7% versus 21.8% (P < 0.001) and in controls 22.3% versus 13.7%, (P < 0.05) compared to males, respectively. There were no differences in both groups regarding the age of subjects and the length of time they have been edentulous and years of denture wearing. The amount of mandibular residual ridge resorption was directly related to the number of years of edentulousness. Conclusion: Completely edentulous, denture-wearing diabetics, women in particular, are at more risk to have ridge resorption than "nondiabetic" subjects. Reduced mandibular height is directly related to years of edentulousness and denture wearing with greater amount of resorption among diabetics.
