Abstract:

Mandibular prognathism is one of the most concerning subjects in the oral and maxillofacial fields. In our previous studies, we attempted to clarify the etiology of mandibular prognathism. They revealed that one of the major characteristics of mandibular prognathism was the lower volume/length ratio of the mandibular condyle and body compared to normal, and the masseter muscle showed parallelism with this. This study aimed to evaluate the relationship between mandibular prognathism and the lateral pterygoid muscle by measuring the orientation and volume/length ratio of the lateral pterygoid muscle. Computed tomography was used to calculate the volume/length ratio of the lateral pterygoid muscle in 60 Korean individuals. Mimics 10.0 and Maya version 2018 were used to reconstruct the surface area and surface planes. The results showed that the prognathic group showed smaller lateral pterygoid volume/length ratios compared to the normal group (p < 0.05). In addition, the normal group displayed a larger horizontal angle (p < 0.05) to the mandibular and palatal planes than the prognathic group. This demonstrated that the mechanical drawback of the lateral pterygoid in the prognathic group is associated with mandibular prognathism.

Abstract:

Introduction Mandibular retrognathism is considered to be the most important risk factor for upper airway obstruction. Aim This cross-sectional study intended to examine the relationship between craniofacial morphology and the pharyngeal airway space (PAS) in patients with mandibular retrognathism and mandibular prognathism, when compared to normal subjects. The study also analyzed the influence of mandibular morphology on pharyngeal length (PL). Materials and Methods The PAS was assessed in 92 females (age 15-30 years) further divided into three groups - Group 1- normal mandible (76°≤ SNB ≤82°; n = 31); Group 2-mandibular retrognathism (SNB <76°; n = 31); Group 3-Mandibular prognathism (SNB >82°; n = 30). All subjects were examined by lateral cephalometry with head position standardized using an inclinometer. Craniocervical angulation, uvula length, thickness and angulation were compared among different groups. Results The results showed no statistically significant difference in the pharyngeal airway between the three groups. Measurements of PL showed statistically significant higher values for retrognathic mandible group than normal and prognathic mandible group. Conclusion There is no significant difference between PAS between patients with mandibular retrognathism, normal mandible and mandibular prognathism. Mandibular retrognathism patients show a significantly higher uvula angulation than patients with mandibular prognathism. Craniocervical angulation showed maximum value in retrognathic mandible group followed by normal and prognathic mandible group respectively. Mean PL for retrognathic mandible patients was significantly higher than prognathic mandible patients.

Abstract:

Mandibular prognathism causes functional and esthetic problems. Therefore, many studies have been conducted to understand its etiology. Following our previous study, which revealed that the major characteristic of the mandible with prognathism is the volume/length ratio of the mandibular body and condyle, we analyzed the volume and orientation of the masseter muscle, which inserts into the mandibular body, expecting that the difference in the size of the masseter muscle causes the difference in the mandibular size. This study compared the masseter muscle of the participants in the prognathic group to those in the normal group on the volume/length ratio and orientation. The masseter muscle ratios (volume/length); the angle between the superficial and deep head of the masseter muscle; and the three planes (the palatal, occlusal, and mandibular) were analyzed. A total of 30 participants constituted the normal group (male: 15, female: 15) and 30 patients, the prognathic group (male: 15, female: 15). The results showed that the volume/length ratio of the masseter of the normal group was greater than that of the prognathic group (p < 0.05). In addition, the orientation of both the superficial and deep head of the masseter of the participants in the normal group was more vertical with respect to the mandibular plane than that of the prognathic group (p < 0.05). We concluded that the mechanical disadvantage of the masseter muscle of the prognathic group is attributed to mandibular prognathism.

Abstract:

ABSTRACT Sagittal split ramus osteotomy (SSRO) is commonly used for treatment of mandibular prognathism. This study evaluated masseter muscle activity using electromyography device, in patients with mandibular prognathism before and after bilateral SSRO of the mandible. Twelve prognathic patients (five males and seven females; mean age 20.6 years) were examined. Initial phase of orthodontic treatment was completed in all included patients. Electromyographic activity of masseter muscle was recorded during maximum voluntary clenching as follows: First evaluation: 7 days prior to surgery, second evaluation: 3 months after surgery and third evaluation: 6 months after surgery. Electro-myography quantities were significantly decreased 3 months after surgery. Electromyographic activity of masseter muscle was recovered to the preoperative level 6 months after bilateral SSRO of the mandible. SSRO of the mandible is a safe technique for correction of mandibular prognathism and not seriously affects masticatory muscle electromyographic activity.

Abstract:

BACKGROUND Facial prognathism may be because of prognathic maxilla, prognathic mandible or aggregate of both. Numerous studies performed to diagnose a single morphological feature commonly producing protrusive relationship, revealed that ‘a single morphological feature does not ordinarily produce a protrusive relationship. Existence of structural imbalance in one area also affects the nature of balance in other areas. A number of separate but inter-related cause and effect factors tend to augment each other in a cumulative and composite manner. Effect of marked discrepancy of an individual’s facial part could be cancelled or nullified by deviation of another part in opposite direction, ultimately resulting in good facial harmony. In this study by means of cephalometric roentgenography, the relation between Angle SNA and Angle NSAr was assessed in Vidharbhites, having normal occlusion, Class II division I and class III malocclusion. METHODS 40 individuals of normal occlusion, Class II division I and Class III Malocclusion, each between 16 and 25 years were analysed. These subjects were selected from patients reporting the outpatient department of Government Dental College, Nagpur. Statistically correlation between angles SNA and NSAr at level of significance 5 % was assessed. RESULTS After data collection a thorough observation & analysis was done and co-relation coefficient between SNA angle & NSAr (F--1.054 M--0.7981), also standard deviation of angular cephalometric measurement between males & females was found out in the population, leading to discussion on topic ‘Facial prognathism is due to maxillary prognathism, mandibular prognathism or combination of both’. In Females SNA was found to be 81 - 800 1.91310 and in males SNA was 82.1660 4. 380 respectively. CONCLUSIONS The results inferred that “Marked part of variation in Angle SNA can be explained by variation in Angle NSAr. KEY WORDS Angle SNA, Angle NSAr, Correlation

Abstract:

Introduction/Aim. Patients with mandibular prognathism as dominant symptom have disordered sagittal interjaw relations that make prominent appearance to this dental craniofacial anomaly beside hyperplastic mandibles and inverted front teeth overlap. The aim of this study was to examine the differences in dimensions of sella turcica in patients with mandibular prognathism and in eugnathic. Methods. On profile teleradiographs of 30 eugnathic control and 30 patients with mandibular prognathism, three parameters, which represent dimensions of sella turcica, were measured (surface, width and depth). Results. Statistically significant difference in values between the groups was found. All the three measured parameters were significantly higher in the patients with mandibular prognathism (p < 0.01). Conclusion. In the patients with mandibular prognathism all the measured dimensions of sella turcica were bigger, and so was sella turcica, but that enlargement was not in correlation with the degree of anomaly itself.

Abstract:

Mandibular prognathism is a hereditary condition where there is an excess growth of the mandible in relation to the maxilla that can be associated with maxillary retrusion, mandibular protrusion, or both. Skeletal mandibular prognathism is most prevalent in Eastern Asian populations. This paper focuses on a Korean family with skeletal mandibular prognathism that was inherited through three generations. Apparently, neither mandible nor maxilla is retruded in the affected individuals, but there is a concave facial profile. The dentition has a class I occlusion with skeletal mandibular prognathism, and the only way to treat this case would be orthognathic surgery with the help of orthodontic appliances.

Abstract:

Background/Aim. Skeletal Class III malocclusion is a discrepancy in the sagittal jaw relationship, due to imbalances in their development and/or position, resulting in the dominant appearance of the lower jaw in facial profile. The aim of this study was to determine variations in the sagittal position of the jaw bones to the cranial base in subjects with skeletal Class III, for the earliest possible diagnosis of malocclusion. Methods. Fifty children and as many adults with skeletal Class III, both sexes, were examined and selected, based on the findings of sagittal interjaw relationship (ANB) ? 0? from the cephalometric analysis of tele-x-ray profile head shots. The subjects were grouped according to age. The first group consisted of children aged 6-12 years, and another group, of adults aged 18-26 years. We measured the angles of maxillary prognathism (SNA), mandibular prognathism (SNB) and ANB. Based on these results, within the respective groups subclassification into the subgroups was done, among which a significant difference measured values was evaluated. In both groups a significant correlation of the determined values was evaluated. Results. An average SNA angle ranged 77.36 ? 3.58 in children and 77.32 ? 4.88 in adults, while an average SNB angle was 79.46 ? 3.91 in the group of children and 81.12 ? 3.76 in adults. An average ANB angle was -2.10 ? 2.07 in children, and -4.00 ? 2.34 in adults. In both groups, a significant correlation between the measured values and a significant difference in the values of all the measured parameters were found between patients from different subgroups (p < 0.01). Conclusion. The most common morphological variation of sagittal position of the upper jaw is its retrognatism, which is equally present in both children and adults. Sagittal position of the lower jaw in most of the adults was prognathic, while mandible prognathism in the children was less present.

Abstract:

Background/Aim. The middle part of the face, that is the maxilla, has always been mentioned as a possible etiologic factor of skeletal Class III. However, the importance of the relationship of maxillary retroposition towards the cranial base is still unclear, although it has been examined many times. The aim of this study was to conduct cephalometric analysis of the morphology of maxilla, including the whole middle part of the face in patients with divergent and convergent facial types of mandibular prognathism, as well as to determine differences betweeen them. Methods. Lateral cephalometric teleradiograph images of 90 patients were analyzed at the Dental Clinic of the Military Medical Academy, Belgrade, Serbia. All the patients were male, aged 18-35 years, not previously treated orthodontically. On the basis of dentalskeletal relations of jaws and teeth, the patients were divided into three groups: the group P1 (patients with divergent facial type of mandibular prognathism), P2 (patients with convergent facial type of mandibular pragmathism) and the group E (control group or eugnathic patients). A total of 9 cephalometric parameters related to the middle face were measured and analyzed: the length of the hard palate - SnaSnp, the length of the maxillary corpus - AptmPP, the length of the soft palate, the angle between the hard and soft palate - SnaSnpUt, the angle of inclination of the maxillary alveolar process, the angle of inclination of the upper front teeth, the effective maxillary length - CoA, the posterior maxillary alveolar hyperplasia - U6PP and the angle of maxillary prognathism. Results. The obtained results showed that the CoA, AptmPP and SnaSnp were significally shorter in patients with divergent facial type of mandibular prognathism compared to patients with convergent facial type of the mandibular prognathism and also in both experimental groups of patients compared to the control group. SnaSnp was significantly shorter in patients with divergent facial type of mandibular prognathism compared to the control group, whereas SnaSnp was significantly smaller in patients with convergent facial type of mandibular prognathism compared to the control group. Additionally, there was a pronounced incisor dentoalveolar compensation of skeletal discrepancy in both groups of patients with mandibular prognathism manifested in the form of a significant upper front teeth protrusion, but without significant differences among the groups, while the maxillary retrognathism was present in most patients of both experimental groups. A pronounced UGPP was found only in the patients with divergent type of mandibular prognathism. Conclusion. The maxilla is certainly one of the key factors which contributes to making the diagnosis, but primarily to making a plan for mandibular prognathism treatment. Accurate assessment of the manifestation of abnormality, localization of skeletal problems and understanding of the biological potential are key factors of the stability of the results of surgical-orthodontic treatment of this abnormality.

Abstract:

Background: Acromegaly, a condition which is associated with an acquired progressive disfigurement mainly involving the face and extremities, is a clinical syndrome which results from excessive production of growth hormone (GH) most commonly due to adenoma of the pituitary gland. Acromegaly is a rare disease which due to its slow progression, is mostly diagnosed in late adulthood. Bilateral symmetrical prognathic mandible is considered as a diagnostic symptom of acromegaly. Nowadays, orthognathic surgery is done for treatment of this skeletal deformity; however, because of its relapse after surgery, the efficacy of this procedure remains uncertain.Case report: In this report we present a 33 years old man who was admitted for correction of Prognathism resulted from acromegaly in Bou-Ali Hospital. Class III skeletal growth form was achieved in his cephalometry analysis. Macroglossia, concave profile with prominent supra orbital ridges, prognathism, large lips and bulbous nose were detected in his physical examination. Orthognathic surgery as well as median glossectomy was performed and after 1 year follow up no recurrence was detected.Conclusion: It is assumed that keeping GH in a normal range before the surgery and also evaluation of orthognathic aspect and endocrine status of the patient in the follow ups are effective in preservation of orthognathic surgery outcomes.

Abstract:

Background/Aim: Mandibular prognathism is a severe form of facial and jaw deformity. Treatment of this anomaly usually requires combined orthodontic-surgical therapy. The aim of this study is to determine the changes in the craniofacial complex after orthodonticsurgical treatment of patients with mandibular prognathism by analyzing the cephalometric parameters on teleradiography images before and after treatment. Methods: The study included a sample of 40 patients (mean age 24.1 ? 4.10) who underwent orthodonticsurgical treatment of mandibular prognathism. Vertical and sagittal parameters characterizing mandibular prognathism were measured on profile teleradiography images before treatment and 12 months after treatment. Based on the analysis of cephalometric parameters on preoperative and postoperative teleradiography images, dental and skeletal changes that occurred after treatment were determined. Results: After the end of the treatment, all the parameters that characterize mandibular prognathism were significantly reduced. A drop in parameters was noted like the following: SNB, SNPg, NS/SpP, NS/MP, SpP/MP (<B), NSAr, ArGoMe, Bjork polygon, NMe, NSna, SnaMe, SSnp, I/SpP. There was a statistically significant increase in parameters: SNA, ANB, GoArNS, SGo, and i/MP. No statistically significant changes in values were recorded on the OP/NS and SArGo parameters. Conclusion: Orthodontic-surgical treatment leads to changes in the bone and dental structures of the craniofacial system. As a result of such treatment, there is a functional improvement and an improvement in the appearance of the face.

Abstract:

Bacground/Aim. The literature suggests different views on the correlation between the cranial base morphology and size and saggital intermaxillary relationships. The aim of this study was to investigate the cranial base morphology, including the frontal facial part in patients with mandibular prognathism, to clarify a certain ambiguities, in opposing viewspoints in the literature. Methods. Cephalometric radiographies of 60 patients were analyzed at the Dental Clinic of the Military Medical Academy, Belgrade, Serbia. All the patients were male, aged 18-35 years, with no previous orthodontic treatment. On the basis of dental and sceletal relations of jaws and teeth, the patients were divided into two groups: the group P (patients with mandibular prognathism) and the group E (the control group or eugnathic patients). A total of 15 cephalometric parametres related to the cranial base, frontal part of the face and sagittal intermaxillary relationships were measured and analyzed. Results. The results show that cranial base dimensions and the angle do not play a significant role in the development of mandibular prognathism. Interrelationship analysis indicated a statistically significant negative correlation between the cranial base angle (NSAr) and the angles of maxillary (SNA) and mandibular (SNB) prognathism, as well as a positive correlation between the angle of inclination of the ramus to the cranial base (GoArNS) and the angle of sagittal intermaxillary relationships (ANB). Sella turcica dimensions, its width and depth, as well as the nasal bone length were significantly increased in the patients with mandibular prognathism, while the other analyzed frontal part dimensions of the face were not changed by the malocclusion in comparison with the eugnathic patients. Conclusion. This study shows that the impact of the cranial base and the frontal part of the face on the development of profile in patients with mandibular prognathism is much smaller, but certainly more complex, so that morphogenetic tests of the maxillomandibular complex should be included in further assessment of this impact.

Abstract:

Introduction. Head posture in relation to the cervical spine is correlated with the morphology of the face and jaw, the position and the mutual relationship of the maxilla and mandible, their length and inclination. The aim of this study is to examine the relationship between the head posture and parameters of the sagittal position and length of the jaws. Material and Methods. The study included 90 subjects (30 for I, II and II skeletal class each) between the ages of 8 and 14 years, who were examined at the Department of Dentistry of Vojvodina in Novi Sad. Each subject had the lateral cephalogram made, and the analysis was performed by means of the computer program ?Onyx Ceph.? The following parameters were analyzed: craniocervical angle, angle of maxillary prognathism, angle of mandibulary prognathism, the difference angles of maxillary and mandibulary prognathism, length of maxillae, and length of mandible. Results. The angle of maxillary prognathism was in positive correlation with the craniocervical angle in the patients with class I and II, and they were negatively correlated in the patients with class III. The angle of mandibulary prognathism was in positive correlation with the craniocervical angle in the patients with class I and III, but they were negatively correlated in the patients with class II. The patients with class II had a statistically significant positive correlation between the craniocervical angle and length of the maxilla, and a significant, but negative correlation between the craniocervical angle and length of the mandible. Conclusion. Increased extension of the head in relation to the cervical spine can be a contributing factor to the formation of class II malocclusion.

Abstract:

Background/Aim. Mandibular prognathism as one of the more severe forms of dentofacial deformities impairs the oral functions and appearance of the patient's face and represents a psychosocial handicap with a negative impact on their quality of life. This study aims was to assess the impact of orthodontic-surgical treatment on the quality of life of patients with mandibular prognathism. Methods. The study involved 40 patients (19 men and 21 women, mean age 24.1 ? 4.10) who underwent orthodontic-surgical treatment of mandibular prognathism. All patients completed two questionnaires, the Oral Health Impact Profile (OHIP-14) and the Orthognathic Quality of Life Questionnaire (OQLQ), before the start of treatment and 12 months after the completion of treatment. Results. Both questionnaires showed an improvement in the quality of life compared to the condition before the start of treatment. According to the OQLQ questionnaire, there was a postoperative improvement in quality of life (M = 24.83 ? 12.99) compared to the preoperative period (M = 51.28 ? 15.2). According to the OHIP questionnaire, there was a postoperative improvement in quality of life (M = 11.34 ? 2.99) compared to the preoperative period (M = 20.8 ? 6.88). The improvement of quality of life 12 months after treatment occurred in all segments measured by both questionnaires. Conclusion. Orthodontic-surgical treatment of mandibular prognathism improves all oral functions, the appearance of the patient's face, and thus improves the quality of life.

Abstract:

ABSTRACT Objective: To clarify whether the concept of main occluding area, where hard food is initially crushed, exists in patients who have a jaw deformity. Materials and Methods: Nineteen subjects with normal occlusion, 18 patients with mandibular prognathism, and 11 patients with mandibular prognathism who had undergone orthognathic surgery participated in this study. The main occluding area was identified by clenching Temporary Stopping. The coincidence, location of the main occluding area, and distance from the first molars to main occluding area were examined. Results: High coincidence of the main occluding area was obtained in all groups, signifying that the main occluding area exists even in these patients. Mandibular main occluding area was located on the first molar in all groups. Maxillary main occluding area in subjects with normal occlusion was located on the first molar. However, it was located on the second premolar and first molar in patients with mandibular prognathism, and on the first and second molars in patients with mandibular prognathism who had undergone orthognathic surgery. There was a statistically significant difference in distance from the maxillary first molar to the main occluding area among groups, but there was no difference in the distance from the mandibular first molar among groups. Conclusion: The main occluding area is more stable on the mandibular first molar than the maxilla in all groups.

Abstract:

Introduction and Aim: Mandibular prognathism is one of the most challenging conditions in clinical dental practice. No appliance has yet been introduced to manage this strenuous condition. Hence, a modified appliance, R.M.S. (removable acrylic splint) bite corrector was fabricated combining the principles of three conventional appliances. The aim was to evaluate the skeletal and dental changes following R.M.S bite corrector in growing children with mandibular prognathism, using lateral cephalograms. Materials and Methods: Twenty children between the age group 9 - 13 years, presenting with class III malocclusion with prognathic mandible were selected. R.M.S bite corrector was fabricated, which consist of reverse twin block with RME (Rapid Maxillary Expansion) incorporated in the upper block. Hooks integrated in the molar region of the upper block, and between the lateral incisors and canines in the lower block. A gradual increasing force was delivered by engaging intraoral intermaxillary elastics. After 10 months, skeletal, dental, and dentoalveolar parameters and linear measurements of jaw bases were compared using pre- and post-operative lateral cephalograms. Results: After 10 months, skeletal changes included a significant retrusion of the mandible and maxillary protraction. Dental changes comprised of an increase in proclination of maxillary and mandibular incisors, which was not significant. A significant increase in the length of the maxillary base, non-significant change in the linear measurements of the mandibular base and ramal length leading to relocation of the mandible in a relatively new position with better esthetics. Conclusion: Desirable skeletal and dental changes were observed following R.M.S. bite correction.

Abstract:

ABSTRACT Objectives To compare 2D:4D ratio which is determined by testosterone levels with patients having orthognathic, retrognathic and prognathic mandibles. Materials and methods The study was performed at Chennai, on 320 subjects of which, 60 subjects (32 males and 28 females) had retrognathic mandible; 55 subjects (25 males and 30 females) had prognathic mandible and 205 subjects (98 males and 107 females) had normal mandible. All the subjects had a normal maxilla and were in the age group of 18 to 25 years. 2D:4D ratio was determined using the photocopies of the ventral surface of right hand made with vernier calipers of 0.01 mm accuracy. Statistical analysis was undertaken using Student's t- test, ANOVA test and TukeyHSD test. Results (i) Low 2D:4D is seen in subjects with mandibular prognathism, (ii) Among females, low 2D:4D is seen only in prognathic mandible. Conclusion These findings highlight the fact that testosterone plays an important role in mandibular growth. Thus 2D:4D, a least invasive and reproducible procedure can be used as an early marker for mandibular progathism, and as a diagnostic tool in correlating the mandibular growth with causal relations between hormones and craniofacial development.

Abstract:

This study aimed to evaluate improvement of tongue-palatal contact patterns during swallowing after orthognathic surgery in mandibular prognathism patients. Thirty patients with mandibular prognathism treated by orthognathic surgery (average age of 27 years, 3 months) and 10 controls (average age 29 years, 6 months) participated in this study. Tongue-palatal contact patterns of patients before and three months after surgery were evaluated by electropalatography (EPG) as well as controls. Whole total of tongue-palatal contact at 0.3, 0.2, and 0.1 sec before complete tongue-palatal contact during swallowing were evaluated. The duration of swallowing phases was also examined. Complete contact of tongue-tip in the alveolar part of individual artificial EPG plate were shown at 0.3, 0.2, and 0.1 sec before complete tongue-palatal contact in the controls, although incomplete contact in the alveolar part were shown at 0.3 sec in mandibular prognathism patients. Whole total of tongue-palatal contact at 0.3 and 0.2 sec before complete tongue-palatal contact was significantly lower in the patients before surgery than in the controls (p<0.05). However, these values increased after surgery. The duration of oral and pharyngeal phase was significantly longer in the patients before surgery than in the controls and the patients after surgery (p<0.01). This study demonstrated that the tongue-palatal contact pattern improved and the duration of oral and pharyngeal phase was shortened in mandibular prognathism patients during swallowing after orthognathic surgery. It is suggested that changes in maxillofacial morphology by orthognathic surgery can induce normal tongue movement during swallowing.

Abstract:

Introduction/Aim. There are numerous factors that influence the formation of condylar processus: the growth and development of cranial base, growth and development of the jaws and alveolar extensions, teething, the way of intercuspidation, the overlap of incisors, functions of masticatory muscles, etc. Considering the fact that the above-mentioned factors significantly differ in persons with different morphological set of the face, we set a hypothesis that dimensions of condylar processus and the mandibular ramus considerably differ in persons with mandibular prognathism compared to eugnatic persons. The aim of this study was to establish the differences in dimensions of condylar processus between the above-mentioned groups. Methods. Six parameters representing the dimensions of the condylar processus were measured on profile teleradiographs of 30 eugnatic persons and 30 paersons with mandibular prognathism: the height of condylar processus, the height of head of the mandible, width of the head, width of the neck, height of the ramus without the condylar processus and the overall height of the ramus. Results. A considerable difference in the values of the parameters was found, as well as the distribution toward the values of reference. It was found that the height of the condylar processus was significantly greater in persons with mandibular prognathism, whereas the width of the head of the mandible, the width of the neck and the height of the ramus without the condylar processus was considerably decreased within the same group. The height of the head of the mandible and the overall height of the ramus was not significantly changed. Conclusion. In persons with mandibular prognathism, morphological features of the condylar processus are changed. The condylar processus lengthens on account of shortening of the lower part of the ramus, and the mentioned lengthening is the most prominent in its condylar neck area which is also the centre of its most intense growth.

Abstract:

Abstract Objective: To examine if there was any correlation between the labio-lingual inclinations of the mandibular central incisor and the associated alveolar bone, and to investigate the labio-lingual position of the mandibular central incisor root apex in the associated cancellous bone in adults with untreated mandibular prognathism. Materials and Methods: High-resolution computed tomography images of the mandible were recorded in 20 adult patients with mandibular prognathism. The labio-lingual inclinations of a central incisor and its associated alveolar bone, the thickness of the associated cancellous bone, and the distance from the central incisor root apex to the inner contour of both the labial and lingual cortical plates were measured. Correlations and differences between the measured variables were tested for statistical significance. Results: The labio-lingual inclination of the central incisor significantly correlated with the labio-lingual inclination of the associated alveolar bone, the thickness of cancellous bone, and the distance from the central incisor root apex to the inner contour of the lingual cortical bone. The distance from the central incisor root apex to the inner contour of the labial cortical plate of bone was significantly smaller than that to the lingual cortical plate. Conclusions: In adults with untreated mandibular prognathism, when the mandibular central incisor was more lingually inclined, the associated alveolar bone was also more lingually inclined and thinner. The mandibular central incisor root apex was closer to the inner contour of the labial cortical bone than to the lingual cortical bone.

Abstract:

The aim of the present study was to investigate the prevalence of dentofacial deformities in an Indonesian cohortcompared with a Dutch cohort and to study the anthropological aspects of dentofacial deformities. The Indonesiancohort included 36 male and 50 female patients from Bandung. The Dutch cohort included 1,003 male and 1,623female patients from Amsterdam. The majority of the Indonesian cohort was less than 30 years old (93%)comparedwith 61.5% of the Dutch cohort. The age distribution of 31-40 years consisted of more Dutch than Indonesian patients(p<0.01). Mandibular prognathism with an open bite was the most prevalent deformity (46.5%) among the Indonesiancohort with a mean age of 22.78 (SD;6.34). Mandibular deficiency was the least prevalent deformity (2.3%) with amean age of 31 (SD;12.73). In contrast, mandibular deficiency with a normal or low mandibular plane angle was themost prevalent deformity (55.9%)among the Dutch cohort with a mean age of 30.48 (SD;1075)and mandibularprognathism with an open bite was the least prevalent deformity (3.3%) with a mean age of 22.49 (SD;6.20). Comparedto the Dutch population, the Indonesian population consisted of more mandibular prognathism (p<0.01) and lessmandibular deficiency (p<0.01). In the Indonesian cohort, young patients seek orthognathic surgery most frequently tocorrect a functional problem associated with mandibular prognathism with an open bite. It was concluded that thegreatest severity of dentofacial deformities that are observed in Southeast Asian patients.

Abstract:

Mandibular prognathism (MP) belongs to malocclusions of skeletal Class III and is characterized by overgrowth of the lower jaw with or without undergrowth of the upper jaw. MP etiology is multifactorial, including both environmental and genetic factors. It is conceivable that single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in genes controlling craniofacial development might contribute to MP. The aim of the present study was to establish a potential association between COL1A1 -1997 G>T (rs1107946) and MMP9 -1562 C>T (rs3918242) SNPs and MP in Serbian population. This case-control study included 120 participants: 60 patients with MP and 60 controls with skeletal Class I. The two SNPs were analyzed by means of polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) method. The association of gene variants with MP risk was determined by calculating odds ratios (OR) and their 95% confidence intervals (CI).There was no difference in SNPs allele frequencies, and no difference could be observed in MMP9 -1562 C>T genotypes distribution between cases and controls. However, the TT genotype of COL1A1-1997 G/T (rs1107946) polymorphism was associated with a two-fold increase of mandibular prognathism risk, though with a borderline statistical significance (OR 2.32, CI 0.97-5.53, p=0.055). COL1A1-1997 G/T (rs1107946) appears to be implicated in Class III mandibular prognathism while MMP9 -1562 C/T (rs3918242) does not seem to be a risk factor for the development of this type of craniofacial anomaly.

Abstract:

method for treating mandibular prognathism, distraction osteogenesis (DO) of the maxillary complex is an alternative approach. Methodology: The clinical and radiological examinations of a 29-year-old male revealed maxillary retrognathism and mandibular prognathism without a vertical abnormality. The patient was treated with maxillary advancement by DO and mandibular setback surgery. Results: Long-term functional muscle exercises were scheduled. No relapse has occurred. Conclusions: We believe that the patient’s cooperation and commitment to the functional exercise program played the most important role in the long-term success.

Abstract:

Objective: Our objective is to exploit architectural constraint for the analysis and interpretation of craniofacial form, which we apply here to the reconstruction of the early Homo cranium KNM-ER 1470. We are motivated to perform this study because in the absence of biological criteria our preconceptions are likely to govern our concept of craniofacial form. Study Design: We reassembled the fragmented parts—left and right halves of the calvaria and the face—according to mammalian craniofacial architectural constraints described by Donald H. Enlow and colleagues. Results: When evaluated on a biological premise, KNM-ER 1470 is found to have a more prognathic midface than commonly appreciated. The relationship between facial prognathism and cranial capacity also provides an estimate downward for this specimen, from 752cc to ca. 700cc. Conclusion: Awareness of our preconceptions is critical to the performance of relatively unbiased research in fields characterized by interpretations of morphology. When perceptual bias is relatively minimized, applied here as an architecturally constrained of KNM-ER 1470 craniofacial skeleton, we are able to provide the scientific community with a more tractable Gestalt perspective of form.

Abstract:

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to analyze the change and stability of mandibular morphology in patients with asymmetric mandibular prognathism after bilateral sagittal split ramus osteotomy (BSSRO). Methods: We retrospectively analyzed fifty patients with asymmetric mandibular prognathism from the West China Hospital of Stomatology, Sichuan University, between January 2018 to March 2021. The spiral CT data before surgery, within two weeks after surgery, and at more than six months after surgery of each patient were collected. According to the deflection direction of the chin, the bilateral mandibles were defined as the long side and the short side. The morphological data of the bilateral condyle, the mandibular ramus, and the mandibular body were analyzed to determine the effect and stability of BSSRO on asymmetric mandibular prognathism. Results: It was found that the long-side mandible had greater condylar volume and diameter, mandibular ramus height and volume, and mandibular body length and volume (p < 0.05) before surgery. After surgery, the volume of the mandibular ramus increased, while the length and volume of the mandibular body decreased (p < 0.05) at the long side of the mandible; the morphological changes of the mandibular ramus and body at the short side of the mandible were not statistically significant (p > 0.05). When comparing the long and short sides of the mandible, the long side still had greater height and volume of the mandibular ramus (p < 0.01). The volume difference of the mandibular body from the two sides was corrected (p > 0.05), and the length difference of the mandibular body from the two sides was overcorrected (p < 0.05). At more than six months after surgery, the volume of the mandibular ramus and body increased, while their height decreased at the long side of the mandible (p < 0.05). For the other side, or the short side, the volume of the ramus and body increased, too. However, their height decreased (p < 0.01). Conclusion: The results of this study suggested good effect and stability of BSSRO on asymmetric mandibular prognathism, except for the correction of ramus height and volume.

Abstract:

Introduction. Mandibular prognathism, one of the most severe dentofacial deformities, affects the person?s appearance, psychological health and the quality of life in the most sensitive age period. Objective. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of sagittal split ramus osteotomy on the range of mandibular border movements in the early postoperative period. Methods. The study was conducted on 20 patients, of mean age 20.8 years, with mandibular prognathism. All patients included in this study were operated on by bilateral sagittal spliting ramus osteotomy according to Obwegeser and Dal Pont followed by mandibular immobilization during eight weeks. In all patients mandibular border movements were recorded before and six months after surgery using the computerized pantograph Arcus-Digma (KaVo EWL GmbH, Leutkirch, Germany). Results. The analysis of the chosen kinematic parameters revealed that sagittal split ramus osteotomy followed by eight weeks of mandibular immobilization had severe effects on the mouth opening. Six months after surgery the range of maximal mouth opening decreased for approximately 13.9 mm in relation to the preoperative stage. On the contrary, the ranges of maximal protrusion and the border of laterotrusive excursions increased significantly after surgery. Conclusion. In patients with mandibular prognathism where enormous mandibular growth was the main causal factor of the deformity, the sagittal split ramus osteotomy yielded good results. The rigid fixation of bone fragments and reduced period of mandibular immobilization followed by appropriate physical therapy could considerably contribute to a more rapid recovery of mandibular kinematics in the postoperative period.

Abstract:

All physicians and dentists who evaluate the upper airway and dentofacial skeleton in the growing child should be aware of the wealth of pediatric dental and, especially, orthodontic literature that has been published over the past century as it pertains to airway and dentofacial development. The child who has a genetic predisposition toward the dolichocephalic (narrow) facial skeleton, a neuromuscular deficit, and structural upper airway compromise is particularly at risk for development of the long-face syndrome. Furthermore, the child who has a genetic tendency toward mandibular prognathism, tonsillar and tongue hypertrophy, and who is a chronic mouth-breather, is at particular risk for developing advanced mandibular prognathism. Unfortunately, there is little physician exposure to these concepts during medical school years and even during residency training programs. It behooves each specialty to be aware of the diagnostic and therapeutic modalities and concerns of interrelated specialties. The beneficiaries of this sharing of knowledge will be tomorrow's leaders.
