In orthodontic diagnosis, facial symmetry is important. The aim of the present study was to analyse perception various degrees asymmetry exhibited by carefully designed virtual three-dimensional (3D) material. Three groups raters (30 orthodontists, 30 maxillofacial surgeons, and laymen) rated, using a six-point scale, degree eight randomly presented 3D faces exhibiting incremental soft tissue alterations. were created gradually transforming nose or chin in increments 2 mm away from computed...
Several investigations have analysed the frequency of sella turcica anomalies in patients with severe craniofacial deviations. Until now, there been no studies concerning prevalence bridging homogenous groups patients. Therefore, aims this controlled study were to analyse and measure size two well-defined Caucasian individuals. In a multicentre retrospective study, 400 pre-treatment lateral cephalograms adult (over 17 years age) skeletal Class III (n = 250, 132 females 118 males) or I 150,...
There is evidence that persons with cleft lip and palate (CLP) suffer psychosocial consequences as a result of their facial appearance. However, no data exist on how they are perceived by others. Our hypothesis was CLP faces were looked at differently compared lacking an anomaly. Eye movements 30 healthy participants recorded ( via eye-tracking camera) while viewed photographs with/without CLP. Subsequently, the rated for appearance, symmetry, expression. When viewed, there significantly...
Objective To assess how faces with a cleft lip and palate are perceived to study without unilateral viewed by individuals and/or in comparison nonaffected controls. Design Prospective clinical study. Setting Department of Orthodontics Psychology, University Wuerzburg. Participants Thirty-three participants (20 men 13 women; mean age, 25.4 ± 6.6 years) control group 30 (15 15 26.8 3.4 were enrolled this Main Outcome Measures Eye movements analyzed via an eye-tracking camera while all looked...
The aim of this study was to generate three-dimensional data the physiological growth infant's cranium in significant phase from 6 12 months age. In a longitudinal observational non-invasive 3D using an optical surface scanner were generated entire head 52 Caucasian infants (27 females and 25 males) between ages (T1) (T2) months. circumference increased by 6.51 per cent (from 43.50 46.33cm). Analysis width length showed that grows 2.84 more length, resulting decrease cranial index 2.52 83.87...
Zusammenfassung Die kieferorthopädische Diagnostik bildet die Grundlage einer erfolgreichen Behandlung und erfolgt traditionell durch eine Kombination aus klinischer Untersuchung bildgebenden Verfahren. Während zweidimensionale Bildgebungsverfahren wie Panoramaschichtaufnahmen Fernröntgenseitenbilder aufgrund ihrer schnellen Verfügbarkeit geringen Strahlenbelastung weiterhin den diagnostischen Standard darstellen, gewinnen dreidimensionale vierdimensionale zunehmend an Bedeutung....
As there are very few long-term studies on the effects of head orthosis deformational plagiocephaly (DP), we investigated outcomes patients, including facial symmetry and dental occlusion.Forty-five infants with DP [cranial vault asymmetry index (CVAI) > 3.5 per cent] were divided into two groups: one treated (32 infants) another without (13 infants). Another group (CVAI ≤ cent) served as control. Using 3D-stereophotogrammetry, cranial was analysed using symmetry-related variables [CVAI,...
Axenfeld-Rieger syndrome (ARS) (OMIM Nr.: 180500) is a rare autosomal dominant disorder (1 : 200000) with genetic and morphologic variability. Glaucoma associated in 50% of the patients. Craniofacial dental anomalies are frequently reported ARS. The present study was designed as multidisciplinary analysis orthodontic, ophthalmologic, genotypical features. A three-generation pedigree ascertained through family Clinically, radiographic analyses were performed. Despite an identical genotype all...
<h3>Objective</h3> We defined parameters that could differentiate between positional and synostotic plagiocephaly a diagnostic chart for decision making. <h3>Design</h3> Prospective study. <h3>Setting</h3> examined 411 children with non-syndromic skull abnormalities January 2011 December 2012. <h3>Participants</h3> A total of 8 infants under 1 year age proven unilateral lambdoid synostosis (LS) 261 deformity were to outline the specific clinical features both diagnoses. After examination, an...
Orthodontic treatment can successfully align pathologically migrated teeth and lead to improvement of periodontal stability in patients with periodontitis. Periodontic-orthodontic approaches have gained increasing attention the past years. Here, we investigated interest adults affected by chronic periodontitis undergoing orthodontic as well patient-related tooth-related influence factors.Periodontal measurements/indices were taken from 115 adult moderate-to-severe The study participants...
Abstract Background Real-time magnetic resonance imaging (rtMRI) is essential for diagnosing and comprehending temporomandibular joint (TMJ) movements. Current methods tracking analysis require manual landmark placement on each acquisition frame. Therefore, our study aimed to assess the inter- intra-rater reliability of placing cephalometric landmarks in frames from a dynamic real-time TMJ MRI. Material Four MRIs right were taken during mandibular movement at ten per second. Seven dentists...
