statement of problem: the gonial angle plays an important role in ensuring a harmonious facial profile. changes in this angle especially after surgery may be an aesthetic concern for both the patient and the surgeon. purpose: the aim of the present study was to evaluate gonial angle changes after mandiblular setback with the bssro technique and to measure postsurgical relapse two years after su...

Introdouction: The purpose of the present study was to determine the possible relationship between gonial angle size and three mandibular morphometric parameters, namely, panoramic mandibular index (PMI), mandibular cortical width (MCW), and antegonial notch depth (AD), in digital panoramic radiographs. Materials and methods: PMI, MCW, and AD were calculated in digital panoramic radiographs of...

PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to evaluate the accuracy of panoramic imaging in measuring the right and left gonial angles by comparing the measured angles with the angles determined using a lateral cephalogram of adult patients with class I malocclusion. MATERIALS AND METHODS The gonial angles of 50 class I malocclusion patients (25 males and 25 females; mean age: 23 years) were measu...

Introduction. Gonial angle and antegonial region are important landmarks in mandible which is influenced by gender, age, and dental status. The objective of this study was to evaluate the gonial angle, antegonial angle, and antegonial depth and to investigate their relationship to gender, age group, and dental status. Materials and Methods. A total of 1060 panoramic radiographs were evaluated: ...

background the gonial angle is one of the most important measurements required for orthodontic treatment and orthognathic surgery. it is difficult to determine the accurate measurement of each gonial angle on cephalometric radiographs because of superimposition of the left and right angles. objectives the aim of the present study was to determine the right and left gonial angles on panoramic ra...

AIM The gonial angle plays an important role in ensuring a harmonious facial profile. Changes in this angle after surgery may be an esthetic concern for both the patient and the surgeon. The aim of the present study was to evaluate gonial angle changes after mandibular setback by the bilateral sagittal split osteotomy (BSSO) and vertical ramus osteotomy (VRO) techniques. METHODS Fifty-eight m...

The external gonial angle is an important angle of the craniofacial complex. It is significant for the diagnosis of craniofacial disorders. Lateral cephalogram and orthopantomograms can be used to determine this angle. In this study, we compared the external gonial angle determined from the two mentioned radiographs in Class I patients. We collected the radiographs of 70 patients with Angle's C...
