Early crossbite correction: a three-dimensional evaluation.
A crossbite (CB) occurs in approximately 4-23 per cent of young children and may lead to mandibular and facial asymmetry. Therefore, early intervention is often necessary to create conditions for normal occlusal and facial development. The aim of this study was to assess facial asymmetry and palatal volume (pre- and post-treatment) in two groups of children, one with a unilateral CB and the oth...
متن کاملPlanas direct tracks for early crossbite correction.
Prof. Pedro Planas of Spain initially developed PDTs,1 and Simoes11 adapted them for early prevention of anterior or posterior crossbite. PDTs should be used in the deciduous dentition only, as they cover the occlusal surfaces of the molars, resulting in a flat posterior occlusion until the molars are exfoliated. PDTs can be built in the laboratory using an indirect technique. A wax bite regist...
متن کاملEarly treatment of posterior crossbite - a randomised clinical trial
BACKGROUND The aim of this randomised clinical trial was to assess the effect of early orthodontic treatment in contrast to normal growth effects for functional unilateral posterior crossbite in the late deciduous and early mixed dentition by means of three-dimensional digital model analysis. METHODS This randomised clinical trial was assessed to analyse the orthodontic treatment effects for ...
متن کاملLong-term stability of unilateral posterior crossbite correction.
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the stability of orthodontically corrected unilateral posterior crossbite in patients treated either by rapid maxillary expansion or with slow expansion devices in the early (mean age 7.2 years, n = 50) or late mixed dentition (mean age 9.9 years, n = 50). MATERIALS AND METHODS The observation periods were approximately 8 years for the early treatment groups and 6.5 year...
متن کاملThree-dimensional evaluation of early crossbite correction: a longitudinal study.
The aim of this longitudinal study was to assess whether correction of unilateral posterior crossbite in the primary dentition results in improvement of facial symmetry and increase of palatal surface area and palatal volume. A group of 60 Caucasian children in the primary dentition, aged 5.3 ± 0.7 years, were collected at baseline. The group consisted of 30 children with a unilateral posterior...
