Effects of altered mandibular function on mandibular growth after condylectomy.
The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of protruded mandibular function on bilaterally condylectomized mandibles of growing rats. Sixty 4-week-old rats were divided into three experimental and two control groups each consisting of 12 animals as follows: (A) bilateral condylectomy was performed and the mandible was left to function normally; (B) the mandible was protracted forwa...
متن کاملEffects of mandibular advancement on growth after condylectomy.
Previous studies have indicated that an injured condyle during adolescence is a causative factor for reduced mandibular growth and resulting asymmetry of the mandible. The aim of this study was to examine the nature of mandibular growth after unilateral condylectomy and to elucidate the effects of mandibular advancement. Sixty growing mice were subjected to unilateral condylectomy, and then one...
متن کاملTMJ function after partial condylectomy in active mandibular condylar hyperplasia.
Condylar hyperplasia is a frequent pathology that causes severe facial asymmetries. The partial condylectomy generally halts the disease. The aim of this research was to examine post-condylectomy TMJ function; 14 patients were included in this study, 6 male and 8 female. The average age was 21 years old. In all, the partial condylectomy was performed with preauricular or endaural access and the...
متن کاملAltered mandibular function and prevention of skeletal asymmetries after unilateral condylectomy in rats.
Unilateral condylar injury is known to be a frequent cause of mandibular asymmetry. Whether this is due to the trauma itself or to the disturbed function that follows the injury is a very important question with ramifications for clinical complications related to facial asymmetries. The aim of this study was to test the hypothesis that mandibular function in a protruded position can compensate ...
متن کاملEffects of hypodontia on craniofacial structures and mandibular growth pattern
INTRODUCTION This study was performed to examine craniofacial structures in persons with hypodontia and to reveal any differences, that may occur, when agenetic teeth are only found in the maxilla, the mandible or in both jaws. The groups consistent of 50 children (33 girls, 17 boys) aged between 9 and 13.5 years were analyzed and assigned to three subgroups. Group 1 = upper jaw hypodontia. Gro...
