Objective: To determine the prevalence of malocclusions in the three spaces planes in patients with dyslalias treated at the graduated functional orthopedics and orthodontic program at the Universidad Cooperativa de Colombia, Bogotá branch from January to July 2012. Materials and Methods: A transversal descriptive study was held in study casts models and craniofacial radiographs from patients 5 years and older diagnosed with dyslalia. The Bjork method of malocclusion record was applied at the vertical, transversal and sagittal and space abnormalities. In order to determine the skeletal maxilomandibular relationship at the sagittal plane the McNamara analysis was applied. The statistical analysis for malocclusion was held trough analysis of frequency and percentage. Results: The prevalence of malocclusions in patients diagnosed and evaluated was 68.3% sagittal, 51.2% vertical, 19.5% transversal and a 36.6% of space abnormalities. Conclusions: Class I malocclusion had the higher prevalence, the relation between skeletal class II division I with increased over jet and dyslalia was not found.

Objetive: This study aimed to compare the anatomical characteristics of the mandible in patients with skeletal class I, II and class III disorders using cone beam computed tomography (CBCT). Material and Methods: CBCT scans of patients between 17 to 40 years taken with NewTom 3G CBCT system with 12-inch field of view (FOV) were selected from the archive. Lateral cephalograms were obtained from CBCT scans of patients, and type of skeletal malocclusion was determined (Class I, II or III). All CBCT scans were evaluated in the sagittal, coronal and axial planes using the N.N.T viewer software. Results: The ramus height and distance from the mandibular foramen to the sigmoid notch in class II patients were significantly different from those in skeletal class I (P < 0.005). Distance from the mandibular canal to the anterior border of ramus in class III individuals was significantly different from that in skeletal class I individuals (P < .005). Conclusion: Length of the body of mandible in skeletal class I was significantly different from that in skeletal class II and III patients. Also, ramus height in skeletal class I was significantly different from that in skeletal class II patients. CBCT had high efficacy for accurate identification of anatomical landmarks.   Keywords Prognathism; Retrognathism; Mandible; Anatomy; Cone beam computed tomography.

Abstract Background The aim of the study was to analyze the morphology and position of the tongue and hyoid bone in skeletal Class II patients with different vertical growth patterns by cone beam computed tomography in comparison to skeletal Class I patients. Methods Ninety subjects with malocclusion were divided into skeletal Class II and Class I groups by ANB angles. Based on different vertical growth patterns, subjects in each group were divided into 3 subgroups: high-angle group (MP-FH ≥ 32.0°), average-angle group (22.0° ≤ MP-FH < 32°) and low-angle group (MP-FH < 22°). The position and morphology of the tongue and hyoid bone were evaluated in the cone beam computed tomography images. The independent Student’s t‐test was used to compare the position and morphology of the tongue and hyoid bone between skeletal Class I and Class II groups. One-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) was used to compare the measurement indexes of different vertical facial patterns in each group. Results Patients in skeletal Class II group had lower tongue posture, and the tongue body was smaller than that of those in the Class I group (P < 0.05). The position of the hyoid bone was lower in the skeletal Class II group than in Class I group (P < 0.05). The tongue length and H-Me in the skeletal Class I group with a low angle were significantly larger than those with an average angle and high angle (P < 0.05). There was no significant difference in the position or morphology of the tongue and hyoid bone in the skeletal Class II group with different vertical facial patterns (P > 0.05). Conclusion Patients with skeletal Class II malocclusion have lower tongue posture, a smaller tongue body, and greater occurrence of posterior inferior hyoid bone position than skeletal Class I patients. The length of the mandibular body in skeletal Class I patients with a horizontal growth type is longer. The position and morphology of the tongue and hyoid bone were not greatly affected by vertical facial development in skeletal Class II patients.

Setelah 4 bulan perawatan, kebiasaan buruk telah berhenti, overjet menjadi 5 mm, overbite menjadi 3,2 mm, jarak inter P1 atas 36,5 mm dan jarak inter P1 bawah 31,6 mm. Aktivator dengan skrup ekspansi efektif untuk mencegah terjadinya disharmoni rahang dengan modifikasi pertumbuhan dan perkembangan rahang serta untuk menghentikan kebiasaan buruk dalam waktu singkat. Beberapa hal tersebut dapat dicapai dengan ketepatan pemilihan waktu perawatan yaitu dalam periode percepatan pertumbuhan. ABSTRACT: Interceptive Orthodontic Treatment Using Activator in Growth Spurt Period. Interceptive orthodontic treatment is effective to reduce the severity of malocclusion with oral bad habits. Time treatment is an important thing to make the treatment become successful. Growth spurt period in range 10-12 years old for female and 12-14 years old for male. Activator with an expansion screw was used to stimulate the mandibula growth, to create space by expanding both arches and to stop the bad habit. A 12 years old male patient with a chief complaint of protruded maxillary teeth and unpleasant appearance. The oral bad habit of patient was mouth breathing. Objective examination showed class I molar relationship on both sides, skeletal class II pattern, inter upper premolars was 35,7 mm and inter lower premolars was 30,3 mm. Angle malocclusion class I with skeletal class II and protruded incisive maxilla, overjet 9,5 mm, overbite 6,2 mm, mouth breathing bad habit, upper midline shifting 1,6 mm to the right side. After 4 months of treatment the oral bad habit was stop, overjet 5 mm, overbite 3,2 mm, inter upper premolars 36,5 mm and inter lower premolars 31,6 mm. Activator with an expansion screw was effectively prevent the skeletal disharmony by modification of growth and development of jaw, and stop the oral bad habit in short period of time. Those can be achieved by the right time choosing in growth spurt period for the treatment.

BACKGROUND Palatine rugae are small transverse structures present in the anterior 2 / 3rd of the palate. These rugae are protected by various structures of the oral cavity. They are immovable structures but variations in the oral cavity may lead to alterations in these small structures. There have been many studies that have quoted changes in these rugae patterns with various tooth movements whereas various other studies demonstrate no significant changes. None of the studies in specific have mentioned about palatal rugae changes with myofunctional appliances. The objective of this research was to evaluate the palatal rugae morphology and its stability after myofunctional therapy, as expansion and movement of teeth might lead to changes in these rugae. METHODS A total of 90 maxillary casts, 30 of Class I, 30 of Class II pre-treatment and casts of same subjects after myofunctional therapy, patients age ranging between 10 and 13 years were selected for the study. Length, intermedial and interlateral distances, angle of divergence and position of rugae were studied based on Lysell Classification 1955 and Thomas and Kotze Classification 1983. RESULTS Secondary and fragmentary rugae were found to be statistically significant as they were increased in Class II samples compared to Class I. The rugae in Class II samples were found to be shorter and therefore significant results were seen. IM1, IM2, IM4, IM5 and IM6 were found to be statistically significant respectively. Similarly, IL2, IL4, IL5 and IL6 were appreciable. IM1 was found to be appreciable. IL1, IL2, IL3 and IL4 were statistically significant. Significant difference was found in mean rugae value among Class I and Class II pre-treatment groups. Statistically significant difference was found in mean rugae value among Class I and Class II pre-treatment group. Incisive papilla to posterior border of last rugae (IP-PBA) was found to be statistically significant. CONCLUSIONS Myofunctional therapy did have an effect on the rugae pattern. But the age group of 10 – 13 years consisted of growing individuals. Therefore, it could not be concluded as to whether the changes were because of growth taking place or because of myofunctional therapy.

Background: Following the morphological features of different races and ethnic groups, knowledge of standard dentofacial patterns of each ethnic group is essential. Therefore, this study aimed to explain cephalometric standards for the Zanjanian population according to Downs' analysis and compare them to Caucasian individuals. Methods: Seventy lateral cephalometries of Zanjanian adults (17 - 29 years old) who had been referred to a private orthodontic office in Zanjan, Iran with class I molar and canine relationship and normal overjet and overbite as well as minimum crowding/spacing/rotations were scanned and traced with the Novatech scanner and Dolphin software version 10. Next, statistical analyses were performed in order to compare the Zanjanian population to Caucasians. Results: We found a significant difference between males and females in terms of interincisal angle, incisor-occlusal angle, incisor-mandibular plane angle, upper incisor proclination, facial angle, and angle of convexity. Discussion: The analysis of six statistically significant parameters indicates that the upper and lower incisors in women of Zanjan were proclined and protruded compared with those of Caucasian subjects. Due to the statistical analysis on facial angle and angle of convexity, women also show more maxillary prognathism and skeletal class II pattern. Generally, a comparison of Zanjanian population cephalometrics based on Downs' analysis showed an increase in maxillary prognathism, maxillary and mandibular incisal protrusion and posterior rotation of the mandible. Conclusions: In conclusion, the Zanjanian population tends to have more dental and skeletal class II patterns than the Caucasians. In addition, gender comparison indicates lower and upper-incisors protrusion in women of Zanjan.
