Pharyngeal airway space cephalometric evaluation in transverse maxillary deficient patients after SARME
Aim: To evaluate prospectively the upper airway of 16 patients submitted to surgically assisted rapid maxillary expansion. Methods: Volumetric tomography acquisitions were done preoperatively (T1) and after six months postoperatively (T2), the slices were obtained from the hard palate to the third cervical vertebra (C3), the images were imported and reconstructed in the Dolphin software for 2D ...
متن کاملChanges of the Posterior Airway Space Following Orthognathic Surgery in Class III
Objective: Adaptation of the pharyngeal airway space does occur after different surgical strategies of class III patients including mandibular setback, maxillary advancement and bimaxillary surgery. The aim of this study is to conduct a detailed cephalometric evaluation of the alterations taking place in the morphology of the pharyngeal airway space after treatment of class III skeletal deformi...
متن کاملRetrospective study of changes in pharyngeal airway space and position of hyoid bone after mandibular setback surgery by cephalometric analysis
BACKGROUND The posterior movement of mandible was known as the main cause of the changes in the pharyngeal airway space (PAS) and the postoperative obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). The purpose of this study was to know the changes of PAS and position of hyoid bone. METHODS Lateral cephalographies of 13 patients who had undergone sagittal split ramus osteotomy (SSRO) setback surgery were taken p...
متن کاملCorrelation between Pharyngeal Airway Space and Craniofacial Morphology - A Cephalometric Study
Introduction: The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effect of craniofacial morphology on pharyngeal airway space (PAS) in individuals with normal sagittal skeletal pattern. Materials and Methods: A total of 30 adult female patients with skeletal Class I jaw relationship were included in the study. Lateral cephalograms were obtained and hand traced. Various soft and hard tissue points...
متن کاملCephalometric Comparison of Pharyngeal Airway in Snoring and Non-Snoring Patients
OBJECTIVES To compare the skeletal and the airway structures of the non-snoring individuals with simple snoring and patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). METHODS The first group consisted of 20 simple snoring cases (mean age: 37.5±8.05 years; max: 50 years, min: 21 years), the second group consisted of 20 OSA cases (mean age: 40.0±8.28 years; max: 54 years, min: 27 years) and the third...
