Introduction With the advancement in imaging technology, 3D dental computed tomography plays a very significant role in orthodontic treatment and diagnosis. Aim To evaluate dental crowding in relation to the mesiodistal crown widths and arch dimensions and also to determine the differences of dental crowding among males and females, in Southern Indian population. Materials and Methods A tot...

The objectives of this study were to estimate the maxillary arch measurements, to assess the validity of Pont's & Korkhaus' Indices; to determine the relationship between maxillary arch form with head form; and to estimate the cephalic index (CI) of the study population. A cross-sectional study was conducted on 85 mature Malay students, 28 male students (32.98%), 57 females (67.02%) attending T...

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the occlusion and maxillary dental arch dimensions in adults with repaired complete unilateral cleft lip and palate (UCLP) and to investigate the patterns of change in early adulthood. Study models from 39 patients (25 men, 14 women; mean age 24.7 years, range 20.2-29.3 years) with a diagnosis of complete UCLP taken at a follow-up examination were analy...

The anatomy of the aortic arch is variable, and its detailed analysis on computed tomography (CT) scan may be difficult. Indeed, its curvature, angulations, length of horizontal portion, and origin of supra-aortic trunks (SAT) may vary among individuals. Furthermore, drastic modifications of the patient’s anatomy may be observed after open or endovascular surgery and in case of congenital abnor...
