RESUMEN
In combined orthodontic-orthognathic treatment, the maxillary palatine suture is closed in most patients with insufficient maxillary width, and bony expansion of the maxilla cannot be achieved by dental expansion or rapid palatal expansion (RPE) which causes buccal inclination of the maxillary posterior teeth leading to unstable results. Therefore, segmental LeFort â osteotomy and surgically assisted RPE are often used in clinical practice. In recent years, with the application of implant anchorage technology, implant anchorage assisted RPE has been gradually applied in orthognathic treatment. This article reviewed the indications, contraindications, complications, efficacy and long-term stability in different treatment approaches including segmental LeFort â osteotomy, surgically assisted RPE and implant-supported maxillary skeletal expansion.

RATIONALE: This case report presents a rare combination of congenital anomalies in an otherwise healthy male infant born at 36 weeks. The infant was diagnosed with congenital maxillomandibular synechia, ectrodactyly, and ankyloglossia superior syndrome (ASS). PATIENT CONCERNS: Inability to open the mouth completely, feeding challenges, and a cleft palate. The infant was stabilized through successful positive pressure ventilation via a face mask at birth and enteral feeding was initiated via a feeding gastrostomy. EXAMINATION: Diagnostic tests revealed a midline palatal cleft, hypoplastic jaws, persistent metopic suture, and a bony fusion at the midline. TREATMENT: Sectioning of the bony spur along the midline and achieving a mouth opening of 2 cm post-manipulation. The patient is under follow-up, with future treatment plans including cleft palate correction at 12 months and potential frontomandibular and lower jaw advancement depending on growth trajectories. TAKEAWAY LESSONS: This case underscores the complexity of managing multiple congenital anomalies and the need for individualized treatment plans.

OBJECTIVE: Segmental Le Fort I osteotomy through the cleft is a common strategy to narrow the alveolar cleft in adults. This study compared skeletal stability between single and segmental Le Fort I osteotomies in patients with unilateral cleft lip and palate (UCLP). MATERIALS AND METHODS: This retrospective analysis examined 45 adults with complete UCLP-associated class III deformities who underwent bimaxillary surgery with either single (n = 30) or segmental (n = 15) Le Fort I advancement. Cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) scans of the facial skeleton were acquired before surgery, 1-week postsurgery, and at follow-up. Measures of landmarks from the CBCT images for the two treatment groups were compared for translation (left/right, posterior/anterior, superior/inferior) and rotation (yaw, roll, pitch). RESULTS: Postsurgery, the downward movement of the maxilla was larger in the segmental group than the single group. At follow-up, the maxilla moved backward in both groups, and upward in the segmental group. The mandible moved forward and upward and rotated upward in both groups. The amount of upward movement and rotation was larger in the segmental group than the single group. CONCLUSIONS: Two years after bimaxillary surgery in patients with UCLP-associated class III deformity, greater relapse was found after segmental Le Fort I osteotomies in vertical translation of the maxilla and mandible, and pitch rotation of the mandible compared with single Le Fort I osteotomies. CLINICAL RELEVANCE: The vertical relapse of the maxilla was larger after segmental Le Fort I advancement compared with single Le Fort I advancement in clefts.

PURPOSE: It is unclear if septal deviation at the insertion points to the nasal cavity is associated with the overall septal deviation. This study aimed to assess septal deviation at the cribriform plate (CP) and maxillary crest (MC) using CT scans and to see if there was any correlation with overall septal deviation. METHODS: All consecutive CT sinus scans between January 2020 and December 2021 were retrospectively reviewed. Patients were excluded if they had a history of head, nasal or facial trauma, or any previous nasal surgical procedure. Angles between the septum and MC and the septum and CP as well as maximal angle of septal deviation (MSD) were measured. RESULTS: A total of 70 scans were included in the final analysis. The mean MSD was 8.14°. The mean septal deviation was 0.89° at the CP and 2.02° at the MC. The correlation coefficient between the deviation at the CP and MSD was 0.025 and between the deviation at the MC and MSD was 0.321. CONCLUSION: Our data reveal a positive correlation between septal deviation at the floor of the nose and overall septal deviation; this was not observed at the septal deviation at the roof. This could be explained due to the inherent tilt in the cribriform plate or by earlier ossification and fixation of the septum during its development at its insertion to the roof, thereby allowing further growth and potential for deviation of the lower part of the septum and its insertion to the floor.

INTRODUCTION: The purpose of this study was to investigate the efficiency of segmental Le Fort I osteotomy in clear aligner therapy of skeletal Class III deformities and to explore whether Le Fort I segmental osteotomy was effective for maxillary incisor axis correction and reduced the duration of perioperative orthodontics. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Patients who had skeletal Class III deformities (ANB<0) treated with extraction of the maxillary first premolars, segmental Le Fort I osteotomy, and clear aligners therapy were included in this retrospective study. We measured the amount of tooth extraction space that was closed by surgery and recorded the preoperative orthodontic and total treatment duration. Lateral cephalograms were analyzed to measure changes of maxillary incisor inclination before treatment (T0), 1 week before surgery (T1), 1 week after surgery (T2), and after total orthodontic treatment (T3). Statistical analyses were performed, and the P value was set at 0.05. RESULTS: The sample was composed of 15 patients aged 19 to 30 (M=22.9) years. The average preoperative orthodontic treatment duration was 16.2±5.22 mo, with 33.5 pairs of clear aligners. The gap at the extraction site decreased from 5.42±1.57 mm to 0.80±0.62 mm on average after surgery. U1-SN and U1-NA(deg) increased sparingly with preoperative decompensation, decreased in quantity after surgery, and then slightly increased with postoperative compensation (T2

Segmental odontomaxillary dysplasia (SOD) is a rare and unusual nonhereditary developmental disorder that affects one side of the maxilla, impacting the hard tissue, soft tissue, and dentition in the affected area. It most frequently presents with enlargement of the gingival and osseous tissue of the affected side and hypodontia of the involved quadrant. Cutaneous irregularities of the impacted area are also common. We report a case of SOD arising in the right maxilla of a three-year-old female. Our report and review of the literature highlight the clinical, radiographic, and histopathologic characteristics of SOD, as well as the management of patients and the proposed etiologies of its pathogenesis.

PURPOSE: To objectively evaluate the effect of maxillary advancement on speech and VPI using video-fluoroscopy (VFS), direct nasoendoscopy, and speech evaluation and subjectively assess patients and their peer's perception regarding their speech outcome. MATERIALS AND METHODS: 27 cleft patients who underwent Lefort 1 maxillary advancement were divided into 2 groups- Group A with 4-7 mm of advancement and Group B with 8-13 mm advancement. VFS in lateral view, nasoendoscopy, and speech recordings were performed pre and 6 months postoperatively. VFS assessed the relative position of velum in relation to the pharyngeal wall, speech was evaluated for changes in nasal emission, resonance, and articulation along with nasal endoscopy to assess the overall function of the velopharyngeal valve. Subjective speech evaluation was done with a Patient-Reported Outcome Measure [PROM] questionnaire. RESULTS: As per VFS, for every 1 mm maxillary advancement, the velopharyngeal gap at rest increased by 1.75 mm in group A and 1.58 mm in group B. The compensatory changes in group B were more pronounced. Post-operative VFS showed velar closure remained the same as preoperative closure in 86.7%, and worsened in 13.3% in group A whereas it remained unchanged in 66.7%, improved in 25%, and worsened in 8.3% in group B. In nasoendoscopy, the closure pattern showed no change in 86.6%, improved in 6.7%, and deteriorated in 8.3% in group A while there was no change in 83.4%, improved in 8.3%, and deteriorated in 8.3% in group B. Dental and labiodental articulation statistically improved [p < 0.05] after surgery. PROM reported 85.7% of patients with improved speech, 82.1% improved sound quality along with 89.3% improvement in articulation. CONCLUSION: The primary cause for functional impairment and poor aesthetics in cleft deformity is the maxillary hypoplasia and therefore, should be the focus during correction. The pre-operative VP status or the amount of maxillary advancement could not predict the postoperative VP status. Maxillary advancement over 10 mm did not seem to significantly affect the final VP status. Articulation improves due to increased tongue space and favorable dental segment positioning. Mild to moderate immediate post op changes in nasality improves or even reverts to their preoperative status in the majority of the cases in about six months.

INTRODUCTION: We aimed to compare alveolar morphometry in young adults with agenesis of the upper lateral incisor versus the side without agenesis and versus matched controls. MATERIAL AND METHODS: In this observational retrospective study, cone beam computed tomography scans were obtained of 36 upper hemiarches from young adults aged 15 to 30 years. The hemiarches were distributed into three groups: group 1: 12 upper hemiarches presenting agenesis of the upper lateral incisor; group 2: 12 upper hemiarches from the opposite side without agenesis of the upper lateral incisor (control group 1); and group 3: 12 upper hemiarches without agenesis of the upper lateral incisor matched for age and sex with respect to the affected group (control group 2). A trained and calibrated investigator performed all the alveolar measurements at two different times, including sagittal, coronal and axial slices of each hemiarch. Paired Student's t-tests, Chi-square and repeated measures ANOVA with Bonferroni correction were used, (P<0.05). RESULTS: Apical mesial evaluation of group 1 (4.22±1.19mm) was significantly lower (P<0.001) than that of groups 2 (6.72±1.17mm) and 3 (7.58±1.67mm). Apical distal evaluation also showed differences (P<0.001) among the three groups, with the dimension being smaller in group 1 with agenesis (4.53±1.14mm), followed by group 2 without agenesis (6.23±1.55mm) and the healthy control group 3 (7.73±1.71mm). CONCLUSIONS: Lateral incisor agenesis significantly reduces the alveolar dimensions of the affected area. In cases of unilateral agenesis, the unaffected side also shows sequelae, with decreased dimensions compared to cases without agenesis. This condition should be taken into account when making therapeutic decisions regarding rehabilitation with implants or canine replacement.

This study investigated the anatomic features of the zygomatic-maxillary complex in patients with maxillary retrusion without clefts. Individuals were grouped, and craniofacial measurements were performed for 21 individuals with skeletal Class III malocclusion with maxillary retrusion (CIII) and 48 individuals from the control group (CG). We evaluated the predetermined hard-tissue and soft-tissue points of the facial profile in each group. Independent sample t -tests were performed to determine the differences between groups (significance set at P <0.05). Multiple points on the midface, including the most posterior point on the contour of the maxillary alveolar process, lowest point of the zygomaticomaxillary suture, furthest point to the zygomatic self-base plane, superior point in the infraorbital foramen, and lowest point of the inferior margin of the orbit to the coronal plane were smaller in CIII than in CG (all P <0.05). The soft tissue thickness in these regions was significantly increased compared with that in the normal group. In summary, for class III malocclusion patients with maxillary retrusion, the deficiency in the midface gradually decreased going upward, with the deficiency at the maxillary alveolar level being the most serious. To some extent, soft tissues compensate for the deficiencies in the facial skeleton, and standard Le Fort I osteotomy advancement was sufficient to achieve a harmonious appearance.

PURPOSE: The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of combining a bone-borne palatal expander (distractor) with a maxillary osteotomy in the treatment of narrowed maxillae in treated cleft palate patients. Few articles in the literature isolated the effects of transpalatal distraction in cleft patients and most either excluded cleft patients or grouped them with non-cleft patients. The hypothesis is that the use of a bone-borne palatal expander in conjunction with a maxillary osteotomy would improve the amount of maxillary expansion at the anterior segment with less tipping of the segments and provide a harmonious arch form. METHODS: We studied four patients above 14 years of age with repaired cleft palate and progressive anterior constriction of the arch. All patients received a bone-borne distractor (UNI-Smile Distractor, Titamed, Belgium) combined with a LeFort I level osteotomy without pterygomaxillary disjunction. Dental models and CBCT measurements were used to analyze the skeletal and dental effects of the intervention. RESULT: All the patients who completed the trial had satisfactory expansion and normalization of the maxillary arch form. The average increase in the intercanine distance was 12.9 mm while the average increase in the intermolar distance was 7.2 mm. No significant change in molar inclination or buccal bone thickness was observed. CONCLUSION: The use of bone-borne palatal expanders aided by a maxillary osteotomy (transpalatal distraction) in treated cleft palate patients can provide a harmonious arch form in adolescent and adult patients. This trial was registered in the clinical trials registry with the ID NCT03837652 on February 12, 2019.

OBJECTIVE: Dental anomalies (DA) can affect paediatric patients' aesthetics, function, and psychological well-being. There is a lack of data about the prevalence of DA in children in Kuwait. This study aimed to investigate the prevalence and distribution of DA amongst schoolchildren aged 8 to 12 years. METHODS: A retrospective study was conducted using panoramic digital radiographs of children who attended a single dental center. All radiographs were evaluated by 2 calibrated and trained examiners. RESULTS: DA were present in 110 (20.1%) out of the 546 panoramic radiographs examined: 53.6% in females and 46.4% in males. The mean age of children with DA (9.83 ± 1.29) was similar to that of children with no anomalies (9.96 ± 1.46). The most prevalent anomaly was dental agenesis (9.3%), followed by taurodontism (6.6%) and ectopic eruption (EE, 2%). DA were more common in the maxilla (58.2%) compared to the mandible (41.8%, P = .042). Congenitally missing teeth were significantly more frequent in the mandible (56.9%) than in the maxilla (43.1%, P = .003). EE was significantly more common in the maxilla (90.9%) than in the mandible (9.1%, P = .024). Microdontia and root dilacerations were only present in males, whilst supernumerary teeth, transposition, and impacted teeth were noted in females only. CONCLUSIONS: The prevalence of DA amongst schoolchildren in Kuwait was considered to be relatively high. Certain DA were associated with gender. The significant prevalence of DA highlights the need for early diagnosis using panoramic radiographs, particularly during the ages of 9 and 10, in order to ensure effective patient management.

OBJECTIVE: Agenesis of the maxillary permanent lateral incisors is a condition that requires treatment aimed at improving the esthetics, even at an early age. However, traditional therapeutic protocols are long, invasive and have limitations and contraindications imposed by the age of the patient. CLINICAL CONSIDERATIONS: Recent developments in restorative dentistry have provided a new approach to this clinical situation, in particular when the deciduous laterals are retained. We report two cases regarding the management of missing lateral incisors using Biologically Active Intrasulcular Restoration (BAIR) technique. The BAIR technique allows us to transform the shape of the deciduous lateral incisor into the permanent, acting both on the dental morphology and proportions, and on the appearance of the soft tissues and the gingival parables. CONCLUSIONS: The BAIR technique is a valid approach to cases of agenesis of the maxillary permanent lateral incisors, when the deciduous are retained. It does not require any preparation of the dental tissues, is reversible and minimally invasive. It is applicable to patients of all ages, and results are obtained in a single appointment. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE: The BAIR technique allows a biomimetic conservative approach for the rehabilitation of congenitally missing permanent lateral incisors, when the deciduous are retained. It is a non-invasive protocol and effective in successfully restoring esthetics.

Binder's syndrome is a rare congenital deformity characterized by midface hypoplasia, particularly around the nasomaxillary area. Genetic etiology or developmental failure caused by prenatal exposure to teratological agents has been considered. In this article, we present 3 related rhesus monkeys born with orofacial deformities similar to those found in infants with the Binder phenotype. For the first time, a primate biomodel for this condition is presented. The clinical description and association with management and environmental factors are discussed. These findings reinforce the knowledge about the relationship between possible vitamin K metabolism interference and Binder's syndrome.

Segmental odontomaxillary dysplasia (SOD) is an uncommon and likely underrecognized developmental condition. In rare cases, SOD can also result in anomalies of the ipsilateral mandibular alveolar process and teeth. This report presents two cases of SOD with mandibular involvement to highlight this potential variation in SOD presentation. These cases help shed new light on our understanding of the disease mechanism and pathoetiology, while also informing clinicians to be diligent in imaging the ipsilateral mandible for dental anomalies in their patients with SOD. Based on the involvement of both jaws, the name change to 'segmental ipsilateral odontognathic dysplasia' is justified to better reflect its pathophysiology.

INTRODUCTION: Dens invaginatus (DI) and Dens evaginatus (DE), the developmental anomalies affecting the morphology of the tooth structure are extremely rare to occur. DI occurs because of invagination of a crown into dental papillae. DE is a tubercular emergence from occlusal surfaces of posterior teeth and lingual surfaces of anterior teeth. The two anomalies on separate teeth are frequently mentioned, but their co-occurrence in a single tooth is a rare entity. PATIENT CONCERNS: A 20-year-old male patient presented with the rare combination of DE and DI on a dilacerated maxillary right lateral incisor diagnosed using cone beam CT. Treatment: The patient was managed conservatively and is undergoing fixed orthodontic treatment for malocclusion. Despite its uniqueness, very few localized cases have been documented. TAKEAWAY LESSONS: These anomalies act as an etiological factor for several dental problems for neighboring & opposing tooth. Early diagnosis of such anomalies should be done so that prophylactic management can be initiated.

A ozonioterapia vem se demonstrando uma ferramenta promissora na prevenção de infecções e no auxílio da reparação tecidual, conciliando com os desafios no tratamento da osteonecrose dos maxilares induzida por medicamentos (ONM-M), este projeto objetiva analisar os efeitos da ozonioterapia, em 55 ratas senis (18 meses), entre 300-350g, induzidas a osteonecrose via medicamentosa (Zoledronato 100µg/kg), após exodontia do primeiro molar inferior. Os animais foram divididos em 4 grupos equitativos (10 ratas por grupo), o primeiro grupo SAL, recebeu aplicações de soro fisiológico por 7 semanas, grupo SAL + OZ recebeu aplicações de soro fisiológico por 7 semanas e o tratamento com a ozonioterapia (0,7mg/kg) a cada 2 dias por 28 dias, o grupo ZOL recebeu aplicações de zoledronato (100µg/kg) por 7 semanas e por último o grupo ZOL + OZ recebeu também aplicações de zoledronato no mesmo protocolo e foi tratado com a ozonioterapia (0,7mg/kg) a cada 2 dias por 28 dias. Todos as ratas receberam a antibioticoterapia (Cristacilina® 0,1ml/kg por dia) iniciando 3 dias antes do procedimento de extração, se estendendo até 4 dias de pós-operatório, passaram pela extração do molar na terceira semana de experimento e foram submetidas a eutanásia na sétima semana de experimento. Após a eutanásia as mandíbulas foram ressecadas, reduzidas e preparadas para as análises microtomográficas (caracterização óssea do osso senil (MCT0) e após terapia com zoledronato (MCT1ZOL) contra seu par controle (MCT1SAL), parâmetros volumétricos (Bv,Bv.Tv,Tb.Th,Tb.N,Tb.Sp,Po.Tot) dos grupos experimentais), histométricas (porcentagem de osso neoformado e porcentagem de osso não vital) e imunoistoquímicas (expressão de TNFa, IL-1b, VEGF, OCN e TRAP). Os resultados da caracterização óssea não apresentaram diferença quando comparado os grupos experimentais (p> 0,05), possivelmente devido ao pouco tempo decorrido na terapia com zoledronato. Os demais resultados comparando os grupos experimentais mostrou com diferenças estatisticamente significativas (p< 0,05) uma característica de osso vítreo, denso, sem vitalidade, pobre em vascularização, com elevados valores para marcadores de inflamação, traduzindo isso em osteonecrose dos maxilares relacionada com a medicação, destoando principalmente do grupo controle SAL, que apresentou melhora na reparação alveolar e características de osso vital e vascularizado. A ozonioterapia (ZOL+OZ, SAL+OZ) apresentou valores significantes estatisticamente quando comparado ao grupo sem tratamento, traduzindo em melhora na vascularização do tecido ósseo, em melhora reparacional do alvéolo, modulação da inflamação local e o aparecimento/manutenção de células osteoblásticas ativas (p< 0,05). Mostrando-se uma terapia viável no controle/tratamento da osteonecrose dos maxilares relacionado com medicamentos(AU)
Ozone therapy has been shown to be a promising tool in the prevention of infections and in the aid of tissue repair, reconciling with the challenges in the treatment of medication-induced jaw osteonecrosis (ONM-M), this project aims to analyze the effects of ozone therapy in 55 rats senile (18 months), between 300-350g, induced to osteonecrosis via medication (Zoledronate 100µg / kg), after extraction of the lower first molar. The animals were divided into 4 equitable groups (ten rats per group), the first SAL group, received saline applications for 7 weeks, SAL + OZ group received saline applications for 7 weeks and ozone therapy (0, 7mg / kg) every 2 days for 28 days, the ZOL group received applications of zoledronate (100µg / kg) for 7 weeks and lastly the ZOL + OZ group also received applications of zoledronate in the same protocol and was treated with ozone therapy (0.7mg / kg) every 2 days for 28 days. All rats received antibiotic therapy (Cristacilina® 0.1ml / kg per day) starting 3 days before the extraction procedure, extending up to 4 days after the operation, underwent molar extraction in the third week of the experiment and were submitted to euthanasia in the seventh week of experiment. After euthanasia, the mandibles were resected, reduced and prepared for microtomographic analysis (bone characterization of senile bone (MCT0) and after therapy with zoledronate (MCT1ZOL) against its control pair (MCT1SAL), volumetric parameters (Bv, Bv.Tv, Tb .Th, Tb.N, Tb.Sp, Po.Tot) of the experimental groups), histometric (percentage of newly formed bone and percentage of non-vital bone) and immunohistochemistry (expression of TNFa, IL-1b, VEGF, OCN and TRAP) . The results of bone characterization did not show any difference when comparing the experimental groups (P> 0.05), possibly due to the short time elapsed in zoledronate therapy. The other results comparing the experimental groups showed with statistically significant differences (P < 0.05) a characteristic of vitreous bone, dense, without vitality, poor in vascularization, with high values for inflammation markers, translating this into a related jaw osteonecrosis with medication, disagreeing mainly with the SAL control group, which showed improvement in alveolar repair and characteristics of a vital and vascularized bone. Ozone therapy (ZOL + OZ, SAL + OZ) showed statistically significant values when compared to the untreated group, translating into an improvement in bone tissue vascularization, a reparational improvement of the alveolus, modulation of local inflammation and the appearance/maintenance of cells active osteoblasts (P < 0.05).

Las compresiones del maxilar superior son alteraciones transversales por discrepancia óseo-dentaria. .En la dentición mixta temprana puede establecerse la estrechez mediante índices que relacionan el tamaño dental con el ancho transversal del arco dentario. Se analizaron 33 modelos superiores de niños en el tercer período de desarrollo clínico según Barnett. Se estableció la estrechez realizando el análisis métrico del arco dental mediante el índice de Pont. Se describió la anomalía de posición anterior según las siguientes variables: A) Apiñamiento dentario: 1-Escalón de los dientes anterosuperiores; 2-Rotación mesial de los cuatro incisivos; 3-Rotación mesial de los incisivos centrales y rotación distal de los incisivos laterales y 4-Rotación distal de los incisivos centrales. B) Ausencia de apiñamiento: 1-Reabsorción atípica y 2- Ausencia de reabsorción atípica. Las anomalías de posición y/o reabsorciones atípicas anteriores en este período de desarrollo clínico se asocian a estrechez transversal del maxilar superior Siendo la malposición más frecuente la rotación mesial de los cuatro incisivos, siguiendo las reabsorciones atípicas y el escalón de los dientes anterosuperiores, luego la rotación mesial de los incisivos centrales y distal de los laterales y por último la rotación distal de los incisivos centrales (AU)
Inside the traverse alteration of the maxillary the compressions are described as uni or bilateral where an imbalance is settled down between the dental size and the size of the maxillary causing alterations in the position of the teeth. In the early mixed teething the narrowness of the maxillary can be settled by means of indexes that relate the dental size with the traverse width of the dental arch. Thirty models of the maxillary of children according to Barnett's third development period were analyzed. The metrical analysis of the dental arch form was carried out through Pont's index. The theoretic values were compared with the real ones establishing the deviations of the norm that is to say the narrow nest. Out of the 30 cases analyzed, 40% presented mesial rotation of the 4 incisors; 27% showed a stop of the front teeth; 27% atypical reabsorption; 20% mesial rotation of the central incisors and distal rotation of the lateral incisors and the 10% presented a distal rotation of the central incisors. With regard to the front atypical discrepancy 36.66% of the cases had a discrepancy above 6 mm and the 23.33% below 3 mm (AU)
