Abstract Objective: To compare (1) arch widths in adults with Class II division 2 (II-2), Class II division 1 (II-1), and Class I normal occlusions, (2) genders, (3) gender dimorphism, (4) differences between maxillary and mandibular arch widths, and to (5) develop adult norms for arch widths. Materials and Methods: Subjects were white Americans with no history of orthodontic treatment. Arch width dimensions measured were: intercanine, intermolar, and molar alveolar in both arches. Analysis of variance (ANOVA) and Duncan's test were used to compare groups. Results: Comparison of pooled genders showed the II-2 group had maxillary arch widths significantly smaller than the normal occlusions and significantly larger than the II-1 group. All groups had similar mandibular intercanine and alveolar widths. The II-2 and II-1 groups had similar mandibular intermolar widths, both significantly smaller than normal occlusions. The II-2 group had a maxillary/mandibular intermolar difference significantly smaller than the normal occlusions, and significantly less negative than the II-1 group. Gender comparisons in two of six widths showed normal and II-2 male subjects were similar, and in six of six widths normal and II-2 female subjects were similar; in five of six widths II-2 and II-1 male and female subjects were similar. Gender dimorphism occurred in five of six widths in normal occlusions, four of six widths in II-2, and one of six widths in II-1. Conclusions: Arch width dimensions of II-2 subjects were intermediate between normal and II-1 occlusions. In both Class II malocclusions, the process that narrows arch widths was more pronounced in male than in female subjects.

Abstract Objective: To investigate the effects of different occlusion types on the mandibular asymmetry in young individuals. Materials and Methods: Mandibular asymmetry measurements were performed on the panoramic radiographs of 189 subjects (104 females and 85 males; age range, 11–15 years), with different occlusion patterns. The subjects were divided into five groups according to the occlusion types, namely, Angle Class I (Cl I), Class II division 1 (Cl II/1), Class II division 2 (Cl II/2), Class III (Cl III), and normal occlusions. The Kruskal-Wallis test was used to determine the possible statistically significant differences between the groups for condyle, ramus, and condyle-plus-ramus asymmetry index measurements. Identified differences between groups were further analyzed using the Mann-Whitney U-test at the 95% confidence interval (P < .05). Results: There were no statistically significant differences between male and female subjects. The Kruskal-Wallis test showed that the occlusion type had a significant effect on the condylar asymmetry. In Cl II/1 cases, condylar asymmetry values were significantly different from the values of Cl II/2 and Cl III malocclusion and normal occlusion types. The normal occlusion control group was significantly different from those of Cl II/1 and the Cl I malocclusion groups. Conclusion: Cl II/1 malocclusion has a significant effect on the condylar asymmetry index when compared to Cl II/2 and Cl III malocclusion and normal occlusion types. However, the mean condylar asymmetry index value in Cl II/1 malocclusion was not different from Cl I malocclusion.

The authors examined 113 subjects between the ages of 9 and i 4 years, 59 males and 54 females, in the town of Santa Maria, state of Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil. Dental/ orthodontic assessment revealed that 12 had normal occlusion, and 66 had Class I, 18 had Class II division 1, 7 had Class II division 2, and 10 had Class Ill malocclusions. For the analysis of the speech articulatory disorders, the Yavas, Hernadorena & Lamprecht (1992) adapted test was used. A list of words was selected that had all phonemes of the Portuguese language, in all possible positions in the words. A tape recording was utilized for later analysis of the speech sample and a phonetic transcription of the words was done. Results indicated that the 12 subjects with normal occlusion did not have speech-articulatory disorders; however, there were correlations between malocclusion and articulatory problems. Twenty of the; 13 subjects (17.7%) were identified as having malocclusion and articulatory disorders. This study attempted to define possible relationships between malocclusion and fonoarticulatory disorders.

Introduction: Dental arch width measurement is needed to determine diagnoses and orthodontic treatment planning of Angle Class II Division 1 and Class II Division 2  malocclusions that have narrow maxillary dental arch generally. Dental arch width in this study was measured by maxillary and mandibular intercanine width.  This study aimed to compare the differences of intercanine width between Angle Class II division 1 and Class II division 2 malocclusions. Methods: Descriptive comparative research with total samples of 67 study models, consisted of 34 Class II division 1 cases and 33 Class II division 2 cases. The minimum age of the samples chosen was 13 years old with no history of orthodontic treatment. A non probability consecutive sampling technique was used. Results: Study results showed the avarage maxillary and mandibular intercanine width of Class II Division 1 were 33,99 mm and 26,33 mm. Average maxillary and mandibular intercanine width of Class II Division 2 were 34,77 mm and 25,37 mm. Conclusions: T-test analysis showed no statistical significant differences in the intercanine width between Angle Class II Division 1 and Class II Division 2  malocclusions.

Aim : To evaluate the transverse discrepancy in different malocclusion groups. Also to test the hypothesisvthat models with Class II division 2 malocclusion may have mean maxillary arch widths significantly smaller than those with normal occlusions and significantly larger than those with Class II division 1 malocclusion. Thus the proposed study will generate interest among the orthodontists for further study over the transverse discrepancy of our patients and guide them to establish effective treatment strategy and their management.Methods:  This study was a cross  sectional  study conducted among the dental casts of 150 patients and  students of the Department of Orthodontics and Dentofacial Orthopedics, Dhaka Dental College and  Hospital. Both male and female were included.  The first group consists of 50 pair of study models with  permanent dentition and diagnosed as Class I (normal) occlusion. The second group includes another 50 pair of dental casts with permanent dentition and diagnosed as Class II division 1 malocclusion . And third group includes another 50 pair of dental casts with permanent dentition and was diagnosed as Class II division 2 malocclusion. This group of malocclusion was again subdivided into two categories, Class II division 2 malocclusion with crowding and Class II division 2  malocclusion without crowding. The Student’s t –test was used to analyze the data. In this analytical test the level of significance p value <0.05 was considered significantResults: No Statistically significant difference was observed in the maxillary inter canine, inter first  premolar and inter first molar widths between class-I and Class-II div-1. Significant differences were  observed between two groups. In case of mandibular inter first molar widths  (p value = 0.001), and also  differences in case of mandibular inter canine, inter first premolar and inter first molar widths between  Class-I and Class II div 2 malocclusion  p value respectively .01, 0.002,0.01.Conclusion: This study helps in determining possible differences in the dental arch widths of Bangladeshi people in  Class II div 2 adults compared to adults with Class II div 1 and normal occlusion may be an  important aid in further understanding of dentoalveolar characteristics of these conditions, as well as  improving their management.Ban J Orthod & Dentofac Orthop, April 2013; Vol-3, No.2

ABSTRACT Background Prevalence of malocclusion varies in different parts of a diverse country like India. Aims To determine the prevalence of malocclusion in population of Jaipur city, Rajasthan, India, as well as subjects views regarding the most important factor for seeking orthodontic treatment by patients who have malocclusion. Materials and methods The sample consisted of 700 subjects (373 males and 327 females) with age group of 15 to 30 years. Subjects were randomly selected and none of them had received orthodontic treatment previously. The subjects who showed bilateral Angle's class I molar relationship with acceptable overjet, overbite and well-aligned arches or minimal crowding were considered to have normal occlusion. The subjects with malocclusion were classified into four groups according to Angle's classification, i.e. class I, class II division 1, class II division 2 and class III malocclusions. Results About 74.57% of population was found to have malocclusion. Among these subjects, 52.57% subjects were diagnosed with class I malocclusion, 12.57% with class II division 1 malocclusion, 8% with class II division 2 and remaining 1.42% had class III malocclusion. No statistically significant differences were found between male and female subjects. Conclusion Among class I malocclusion characteristics, Angle's class I type 1 malocclusion was statistically significantly found to be the most prevalent type of malocclusion. As far as the most important factor for seeking orthodontic treatment was determined, a desire of enhancing facial appearance followed by a desire of attaining straight teeth was considered to be the chief motivational factor among this population.

The aim of the investigation was to determine the dynamic of birth delivery and relate to dental occlusion among a group of adult subjects. The group studied was made up of 106 subjects (57 females and 49 males) referred for dental diagnosis and treatment. The average age was 26 with a range 22 to 30 years. In data collection and analysis the following were used as measures: dental occlusion (Angle Class I, II div 1, II div 2 and III) and type of delivery (normal, short, long, caesarean and other). Results showed that among 106 subjects 72 (68%) had malocclusion versus 34 (32%) with normal occlusion; 24 subjects (22.6%) have been normal delivery versus 82 (77.4%) with non-normal delivery. Class I is present in 34 subjects (32%), class II division 1 in 26 (24%), class II division 2 in 22 (20%), class III in 16 (14%), and 8 subjects (6%) fall in the section "other". Among 24 subjects with normal delivery 100% presented class I occlusion. However, among 82 subjects with non-normal delivery 10 subjects had a class I (12.2%) and the 72 (87.8%) had in the other classes, are distributed in the various subgroups of non-normal labor/delivery. None of the subjects with a malocclusion have a normal labor/delivery. Better understanding of the connections among osteopathic theory, craniosacral treatment and the outcomes upon dental occlusion, more rigorous evaluations are warranted.
