RESUMO
As indicações de tratamento das fraturas mandibulares em paciente pediátrico variam em conservador, fixação não rígida e interna rígida. Alterações no crescimento ósseo, disfunções na articulação temporomandibular e assimetrias faciais podem ser decorrentes ao insucesso do tratamento. O objetivo deste trabalho consiste em relatar abordagem cirúrgica em fratura de sínfise e côndilo mandibular bilateral em paciente pediátrico. Paciente gênero feminino, 09 anos de idade, foi encaminhada ao Hospital Geral do Estado - Bahia vítima de queda de nível, cursando com trauma em face. Apresentou queixa principal, referida pela progenitora, de dificuldades em fechar a boca. Ao exame físico, a paciente apresentou mobilidade atípica à manipulação da mandíbula, mordida aberta anterior, equimose sublingual, ausência das unidades dentárias 74 e 75, com abertura bucal regular e suturas em posição em região de mento. Ao exame de imagem de tomografia computadorizada da face, pôde-se notar sinais sugestivos de fratura em região de sínfise e côndilos mandibulares bilateral. Após diagnóstico das fraturas, a paciente foi submetida à cirurgia sob anestesia geral para redução e fixação das mesmas. Realizou-se acessos em ferimento na região mentual e retromandibular bilateral com posterior síntese das fraturas utilizando fixação interna rígida com placas do sistema 2.0mm, associada a odontossíntese na fratura de sínfise. Ao acompanhamento periódico, a eleição do tratamento cirúrgico para fraturas mandibulares em pacientes pediátricos, pode permitir segurança no crescimento ósseo mandibular e facial(AU)
The indications for treatment of mandibular fractures in pediatric patients vary from conservative, non-rigid fixation and rigid internal fixation. Changes in bone growth, temporomandibular joint disorders and facial asymmetries may be due to treatment failure. The objective of this work is to report a surgical approach to bilateral symphysis and mandibular condyle fractures in a pediatric patient. Female patient, 9 years old, was sent to the State General Hospital - Bahia, victim of a fall in level, suffering from trauma to the face. She presented a main complaint, mentioned by her mother, of difficulties in closing her mouth. On physical examination, the patient presented atypical mobility when manipulating the jaw, anterior open bite, sublingual ecchymosis, absence of dental units 74 and 75, with regular mouth opening and sutures in position in the chin region. When examining the computed tomography image of the face, signs suggestive of fracture in the region of the symphysis and bilateral mandibular condyles were noted. After diagnosis of the fractures, the patient underwent surgery under general anesthesia to reduce and fix them. Access was performed on a wound in the mental and bilateral retromandibular region with subsequent synthesis of the fractures using rigid internal fixation with 2.0mm system plates, associated with odontosynthesis in the symphysis fracture. With periodic monitoring, the choice of surgical treatment for mandibular fractures in pediatric patients can allow for safe mandibular and facial bone growth(AU)

Objective:To establish and assess the precision of pre-surgical condyle position planning using mandibular movement trajectory data for orthognathic surgery.Methods:Skull data from large-field cone beam computed tomography(CBCT)and dental oral scan data were imported into IVSPlan 1.0.25 software for 3D reconstruction and fusion,creating 3D models of the maxilla and mandible.Trajectory da-ta of mandibular movement were collected using a mandibular motion recorder,and the data were inte-grated with the jaw models within the software.Subsequently,three-dimensional trajectories of the con-dyle were obtained through matrix transformations,rendering them visually accessible.A senior oral and maxillofacial surgeon with experience in both diagnosis and treatment of temporomandibular joint disease and orthognathic surgery selected the appropriate condyle position using the condyle movement trajectory interface.During surgical design,the mobile mandibular proximal segment was positioned accordingly.Routine orthognathic surgical planning was completed by determining the location of the mandibular distal segment,which was based on occlusal relationships with maxilla and facial aesthetics.A virtual mandible model was created by integrating data from the proximal and distal segment bone.Subsequently,a solid model was generated through rapid prototyping.The titanium plate was pre-shaped on the mandibular model,and the screw hole positions were determined to design a condylar positioning guide device.In accordance with the surgical plan,orthognathic surgery was performed,involving mandibular bilateral sagittal split ramus osteotomy(SSRO).The distal segment of the mandible was correctly aligned inter-maxillary,while the proximal bone segment was positioned using the condylar positioning guide device and the pre-shaped titanium plate.The accuracy of this procedure was assessed in a study involving 10 patients with skeletal class Ⅱ malocclusion.Preoperative condyle location planning and intraoperative po-sitioning were executed using the aforementioned techniques.CBCT data were collected both before the surgery and 2 weeks after the procedure,and the root mean square(RMS)distance between the preope-rative design position and the actual postoperative condyle position was analyzed.Results:The RMS of the condyle surface distance measured was(1.59±0.36)mm(95%CI:1.35-1.70 mm).This value was found to be significantly less than 2 mm threshold recommended by the expert consensus(P<0.05).Conclusion:The mandibular trajectory may play a guiding role in determining the position of the mandibular proximal segment including the condyle in the orthognathic surgery.Through the use of a con-dylar positioning guide device and pre-shaped titanium plates,the condyle positioning can be personalized and customized with clinically acceptable accuracy.
RESUMO
Abstract This observational, cross-sectional study with retrospective collection was aimed to evaluate the prevalence of morphological changes in mandibular condyles in individuals with class II malocclusion, classified according to different vertical growth patterns (brachyfacial, mesofacial, and dolichofacial), through cone beam computed tomography (CBCT). Seventy CBCT images (140 mandibular condyles) were selected from individuals without orthodontic treatment, of both sexes, aged between 25 and 50 years. No statistically significant differences were found between facial patterns; however, there was a higher relative prevalence of bone changes in dolichofacial individuals with flattening (62%), sclerosis (44%), and subchondral bone cyst (20%). Erosion and osteophytes prevailed in mesofacial (39%), and brachyfacial individuals (32%), respectively. Thus, there was no statistically significant difference in the prevalence of degenerative changes between the vertical skeletal patterns. Flattening was the most prevalent change, whereas subchondral bone cyst was the least prevalent among the three groups studied. The observational design of this study makes it possible to analyze image banks to verify the correlation of morphological changes in the temporomandibular joint in different facial patterns in patients with class II malocclusion. A limitation of the study is that clinical characteristics were not evaluated.
RESUMO
Objective To compare the image quality of three high-resolution dynamic MRI methods for evaluating the motion of temporomandibular joint disc and condyle. Methods Twenty-five patients with suspected temporomandibular joint disorders were examined by single-shot fast spin-echo (SSFSE),fast imaging employing steady-state acquisition (FIESTA),and spoiled gradient echo (SPGR) on the oblique sagittal position.Two radiologists performed subjective and objective evaluation on the images with double-blind method.The subjective evaluation included the signal intensity of mandibular condyle,articular disc,soft tissue around articular disc,and lateral pterygoid muscle,the contrast between articular disc and condyle,the contrast between articular disc and surrounding soft tissue,condylar motion,and disc movement.The objective evaluation indexes included image signal intensity,signal-to-noise ratio (SNR),and contrast-to-noise ratio (CNR).The subjective and objective indexes of the image quality were compared between the three sequences. Results The SSFSE sequence had lower signal intensity of articular disc and higher signal intensity of condyle and surrounding soft tissue than FIESTA and SPGR sequences (all P<0.001).The SPGR sequence showed higher signal intensity of lateral pterygoid muscle than the SSFSE and FIESTA sequences (P=0.017,P<0.001).Among the three sequences,SSFSE sequence showed the clearest articular disc structure (χ2=41.952,P<0.001),the strongest contrast between articular disc and condyle (χ2=35.379,P<0.001),the strongest contrast between articular disc and surrounding soft tissue (χ2=27.324,P<0.001),and the clearest movement of articular disc (χ2=44.655,P<0.001).SSFSE and FIESTA sequences showed higher proportion of disc displacement and reduction than SPGR sequence (all P<0.001).The CNR (χ2=21.400,P<0.001),SNR (χ2=34.880,P<0.001),and condyle signal intensity (F=337.151,P<0.001) demonstrated differences among SSFSE,FIESTA,and SPGR sequences.The CNR of SSFSE sequence was higher than that of FIESTA sequence (P<0.001),while it had no significant difference between SSFSE and SPGR sequences (P=0.472).In addition,the SSFSE sequence had higher SNR and signal intensity than FIESTA and SPGR sequences (all P<0.001). Conclusion The best image quality can be observed from SSFSE sequence where both the structure and movement of temporomandibular joint are well displayed.Therefore,SSFSE is preferred for the examination of temporomandibular joint movement.

@#Introduction: The morphology of the condyles changes naturally with age, gender, face type, occlusal force, functional load, malocclusion type, and the right and left sides. Although condylar shape and size differ throughout populations, there have been few investigations on condylar morphology, particularly in the Malaysian population. Methods: This retrospective, observational, cross-sectional survey was conducted at the Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery Clinic of Sarawak General Hospital from September 2021 to March 2022, involving radiographic assessment of condylar morphology from 893 panoramic radiographs. Age, gender, ethnicity and dentition status using Eichner index were extracted from the data. Descriptive statistics were used. Pearson’s chi-square test was used to determine the association between the independent variables (age, gender, ethnicity and dentition status) and the shape of the mandibular condyle. A p-value of < 0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results: Only 450 panoramic radiographs were included in this study. The condyles were outlined and grouped into four categories, namely pointed (40.2%), round (32.8), angled (18.8), and flat (8.2%). Condylar morphology was found to be significantly associated with gender (p<0.005) and insignificant with other independent variables. Conclusion: The findings suggest that the most prevalent condylar morphology among the Sarawak population is the pointed shape, in contrast with other previous studies that reported the round shape condylar morphology as the majority shape.
RESUMO
Aim: To describe cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) features in patients with temporomandibular disorders (TMDs), in terms of degenerative changes, condylar excursions and positioning as well as their possible correlations with signs and symptoms. Methods: Clinical records of patients diagnosed with TMD who were seen between January 2018 and December 2019 were retrospectively evaluated. These patients were divided into the following groups based on the Diagnostic Criteria for Temporomandibular Disorders (DC/TMD): arthralgia, myalgia, and arthralgia and myalgia groups. The CBCT examination findings of the patients were evaluated in relation to degenerative changes, estimates of condylar excursion, and condylar positioning. The likelihood ratio test was used to verify the possible differences among the three groups, whereas the chi-square test was used to verify the possible differences among the signs and symptoms for the tomographic findings (p ≤ 0.050). Results: In this study, 65 patients with TMD were included. These patients were predominantly female (84.6%) with a mean age of 40.6 years. Tomographic findings of flattening, hyperexcursion and posterior condylar positioning were frequent. A significant correlation was noted between osteophyte and lateral capsule pain (p = 0.027), erosion and posterior capsule pain (p = 0.026), and flattening, pseudocysts (p < 0.050) and condylar excursion (p < 0.001) with mouth opening. Conclusion: Few correlations were noted between degenerative changes and signs of joint pain as well as degenerative changes and condylar hypoexcursion with mouth opening. These correlations were likely associated with division by diagnosis, whereas condylar positioning did not correlate with signs and symptoms

Aim: This study aimed to evaluate the relationship between clinical findings and some factors such as age, gender, and remaining teeth on the anatomy of the temporomandibular joint in order to diagnose normal variations from abnormal cases. Methods: In this cross-sectional study, cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) images of 144 patients referring to Tabriz Dental School for various reasons were selected and evaluated. The different aspects of the clinical parameters and the morphology of the condyle were evaluated on coronal, axial, and sagittal views. The CBCT prepared using the axial cross-sections had been 0.5 mm in thickness. The sagittal cross-sections had been evaluated perpendicular to the lengthy axis of the condyle at a thickness of 1 mm and the coronal cross-sections had been evaluated parallel to the lengthy axis of the condyle at a thickness of 1 mm. Data were analyzed with descriptive statistical methods and t-test, chi-squared test, using SPSS 20. The significance level of the study was p < 0.05. Results: There was a significant relationship between the condyle morphology, number of the teeth, and mastication side (p = 0.040). There were significant relationships between the condyle morphology, age between 20-40, and occlusion class I on the all the three views (coronal, axial, sagittal) (p = 0.04), (p = 0.006), (p = 0.006). Also, significant relationships were found in the condyle morphology and location of pain according to age, the number of remaining teeth, and gender. (p = 0.046) (p = 0.027) (p = 0.035). Conclusion:There are significant relationships between the clinical symptoms and condyle morphology based on age, gender, and the number of remaining teeth. The clinical finding that has the most significant relationship between the condyle morphology, remaining teeth (9-16 teeth), all of the age range (20-80 year), and gender was mastication side

Introduction: Mandibular fractures are the most common facial fractures affecting various anatomical sites of the mandible. Among the various mandibular fractures, management of condylar fractures remains a challenging task for surgeons. Case Report: We report the case of a 28 year old male patient who presented with pain in the chin and restricted mouth opening. Computed tomography revealed a sagittal fracture of the right condylar head with medial displacement of the fractured fragments. Management of diacapitular fractures includes open reduction and internal fixation of the right condyle using a single lag-screw. Results: The postoperative outcomes were favorable, where normal mandibular movements, desired dental occlusion and exact positioning of the condyle with rigid fixation were established thereby maintaining the shape of the condyle. Conclusion: Use of single lag screw fixation is highly recommended as it greatly supports the stabilized fracture fragments and also aid in prevention of fracture fragment rotation medially.
Introducción: Las fracturas mandibulares son las fracturas faciales más comunes que afectan a diversos sitios anatómicos de la mandíbula. Entre las diversas fracturas mandibulares, el manejo de las fracturas condilares sigue siendo una tarea desafiante para los cirujanos. Reporte del Caso: Presentamos el caso de un paciente masculino de 28 años que consultó por dolor en el mentón y restricción de la apertura de la boca. La tomografía computarizada reveló una fractura sagital de la cabeza condilar derecha con desplazamiento medial de los fragmentos fracturados. El tratamiento de las fracturas diacapitulares incluye la reducción abierta y la fijación interna del cóndilo derecho con un solo tirafondo. Resultados: Los resultados postoperatorios fueron favorables, donde se establecieron los movimientos mandibulares normales, la oclusión dentaria deseada y el posicionamiento exacto del cóndilo con fijación rígida manteniendo así la forma del cóndilo. Conclusión: Se recomienda encarecidamente el uso de una fijación con un solo tornillo de tracción, ya que soporta en gran medida los fragmentos de fractura estabilizados y también ayuda a prevenir la rotación medial de los fragmentos de fractura.

Objetivo: Evaluar los efectos de la aplicación de un dispositivo intraoral de uso permanente en el comportamien- to de los cóndilos con hiperplasia condilar (HC) confirmada por tomografía computarizada de emisión por fotón único (SPECT), estableciendo una comparación con un grupo de pacientes con HC que no utilizó el dispositivo. Materiales y métodos: 30 pacientes con una edad promedio de 21,7 años (+/-5,56) con HC confirmada con SPECT fueron asignados al azar a dos grupos: a los del grupo I (n=18) se les colocó un dispositivo intraoral de uso perma- nente para modificar la posición de la mandíbula, mientras que a los del grupo II (n=12) no se les colocó ningún dispo- sitivo. Se realizaron evaluaciones de dolor, del desvío de la línea media, de la apertura máxima y del disconfort al inicio del estudio y a los 2, 4, 6, 10, 12 y 14 meses. A los 19 meses promedio, la actividad osteoblástica (AO) fue reevaluada me- diante SPECT. Resultados: En el grupo I, la AO en los cortes coro- nales y transversales cesó o disminuyó (p<0,001) respecto a la condición inicial, mientras que en el grupo II la AO au- mentó (p<0,001). Los datos fueron analizados utilizando el test de Wilcoxon de rangos signados. Al ajustar un modelo de ANCOVA robusto utilizando el valor inicial como covariable también se observa que el efecto del grupo fue estadística- mente significativo en ambos cortes (p<0,001). Conclusiones: La aplicación de un dispositivo intrao- ral de uso permanente mejora la evolución de la hiperplasia condilar, lo que lo puede convertir en un tratamiento de uti- lidad para el tiempo que se aguarda para realizar una condi- lectomía alta de cuello de cóndilo, o incluso para evitar este procedimiento (AU)
Objective: To evaluate the effects of the application of an intraoral device for permanent use on the behavior of con- dyles with condylar hyperplasia (CH) confirmed by single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT), establish- ing a comparison with a group of patients with CH that did not use the device. Materials and methods: Thirty patients with an aver- age age of 21.7 years (+/-5.56) with CH confirmed by SPECT were randomly divided into two groups: the ones in group I (n=18) received an intraoral device for permanent use to align the mandible, while those in group II (n=12) did not get any device. Pain, midline shift, maximum opening, and discomfort were evaluated at the beginning of the study and at 2, 4, 6, 10, 12, and 14 months. At an average of 19 months, osteoblastic activity (AO) was reassessed by SPECT. Results: In group I, the AO in the coronal and trans- verse sections ceased or decreased (p<0.001) in comparison to the initial condition, while in group II the AO increased (p<0.001). The data was analyzed by the Wilcoxon signed rank test. Adjusting a robust ANCOVA model using the ini-tial value as a covariate made it possible to observe that the effect of the group was statistically significant in both cuts (p<0.001). Conclusions: The application of an intraoral device for permanent use improves the evolution of condylar hyperpla- sia, which can make it a useful treatment until a high condylectomy of the neck of the condyle is performed, or even to avoid this procedure (AU)

The displacement of the mandibular condyle into the cranial fossa is an uncommon event; when it occurs, there is a need for immediate and multidisciplinary surgical intervention. Due to its rare advent, there is still no consolidated service dynamics, as this condition has not yet been described in a sedimented way in the literature databases. In the present article, we performed a literature review of condylar dislocation for the intracranial fossa described in the past 10 years in the PubMed and Lilacs search databases.

Aim: The mandible is regarded as a frequently fractured bone in patients who present with maxillofacial trauma accounting for almost 15.5% to 59% of all facial fractures. Managing condylar trauma has remained to be a point of contention amongst experts, regardless of the advances in surgical modalities and methodologies, and the treatment plan is often determined by the preference and the experience of the surgeon. There exist various approaches in the literature, each with its own specific benefits and drawbacks. With this study, we aimed to evaluate the prevalence of post-operative complications in patients who experienced ORIF by means of the retromandibular approach, by comparing the outcomes of one group having undergone transparotid surgery, with another that underwent retroparotid surgery. Methods: An experimental trial was undertaken. Convenience sampling was done from among the cases of condylar neck and base fracture visiting the department of OMFS, Dow University of Health Sciences from January 2017 to December 2019. An overall 26 patients were divided into 2 groups of 13 members each; one was managed using Open Reduction Internal Fixation (ORIF) by means of a retromandibular transparotid approach while the other group was treated with ORIF by means of a retromandibular retroparotid approach. A 6 month follow-up was done to assess range of active motion, occlusion, and complications such as deviation/deflection, neural injury, infections, sialocele, salivary fistulae and Frey's syndrome in both groups. Results: There was no statistically significant difference between the two groups in terms of inter-incisal opening, right and left lateral movements, or protrusion. One patient in the retroparotid group had deviation on mouth opening (7.69%), while one in the transparotid group reported with infection (7.69%), and 2 developed post operative seromas (15.38%). None had persisting facial nerve palsy at 6 months. Conclusion: We find no significant disparity between the 2 approaches at a follow-up of 6 months; therefore, the primary determining factor for selection of either technique is surgeon preference and appropriate case selection

Resumen Introducción y objetivo: La posición condilar, como el biotipo facial es importante para mantener una oclusión y un sistema estomatognático equilibrado. El objetivo del presente artículo es relacionar el biotipo facial con la posición condílea en tomografía de haz de cono, en pacientes sin reporte de trastornos temporomandibulares. Materiales y métodos: Se estudiaron 59 tomografías de pacientes 23 de sexo masculino y 36 femenino, con edades entre 14 y 59 años, se clasificaron en dolicofacial, mesofacial y braquifacial. Con el fin de evaluar la posición condilar se estudió la dimensión de los espacios articulares. Las tomografías fueron medidas con I-Cat vision y para el análisis estadístico se utilizó STATA 14, fue avalado por el comité de ética de la Universidad del Valle. Resultados: Se realizó correlación interobservador obteniendo un Kappa promedio de 0,85. 45 pacientes corresponden al biotipo braquifacial, 8 dolicofacial y 6 mesofacial. En todos los espacios articulares, los braquifaciales presentaron valores de mayor dimensión y el dolicofacial menor dimensión. Se encontró que los espacios mediales (CMS) presentaron valores similares en cuanto a lateralidad dentro de cada biotipo, teniendo diferencias de 0,02 a 0,09 sin embargo, para los espacios articulares centrales (CCS) y laterales (CLS) se observaron mayores diferencias entre un lado y otro, teniendo diferencias 0,15 hasta 0,62 lo cual es estadísticamente significativo. CLS fue el espacio articular de menor dimensión en todos los biotipos. Evaluando los espacios articulares por cada biotipo se encontraron diferencias significativas (P < 0,05) en CMS derecho, CCS derecho y muy cercano a la significancia CLS izquierdo. En todos los espacios articulares se observaron valores mayores en el sexo masculino de los cuales todos son braquifaciales siendo estadísticamente significativa (P < 0,05) para el espacio articular en CCS derecho, CLS Derecho y CLS Izquierdo. Conclusiones: Las dimensiones de los espacios articulares están relacionados con el biotipo facial, las medidas tomográficas de corte coronal son un insumo necesario como parte del análisis y diagnóstico anidado al biotipo facial.
Abstract Introduction and objective: The condylar position, as well as the facial biotype, are important to maintain an occlusion and a balanced stomatognathic system. The objective of this article is to relate the facial biotype with the condylar position in cone beam tomography in patients without temporomandibular disorders. Materials and methods: 59 Cone Beam Computer Tomography (CBCT) of 23 male and 36 female patients, with age between 14 and 59 years, were classified into dolichofacial, mesofacial and braquifacial biotypes. In order to evaluate the condylar position, the dimension of the joint spaces is evaluated. CBCT were measured with I-Cat vision and STATA 14 was used for statistical analysis, it was endorsed by the ethics committee of the Universidad del Valle. Results: The interobserver correlation was performed, obtaining a Kappa of 0.85. 45 patients correspond to the braquifacial biotype, 8 dolichofacial and 6 mesofacial. In all the joint spaces, the braquifacial ones presented values of greater dimension and the dolichofacial smaller dimension. It was found that the medial spaces (CMS) present similar values in terms of laterality within each biotype, having differences of 0.02 to 0.09, however, for the central (CCS) and lateral (CLS) joint spaces greater differences between one side and the other, having differences 0.15 to 0.62 which is significant. CLS was the joint space with the smallest dimension in all biotypes. Evaluating the joint spaces for each biotype, significant differences (P <0.05) were found in right CMS, right CCS and very close to the left CLS significance. Higher values were observed in all the joint spaces in males, all of which are braquifacial, being statistically significant (P <0.05) for the joint space in the right CCS, Right CLS and Left CLS. Conclusions: The dimensions of the joint spaces are related to the facial biotype, the coronal section tomographic measurements are a necessary input as part of the analysis and diagnosis related to the facial biotype.
Resumo Introdução e objetivo: A posição condilar, assim como o biótipo facial, são importantes para manter uma oclusão e um sistema estomatognático equilibrado. O objetivo deste artigo é relacionar o biótipo facial com a posição condilar na tomografia de feixe cônico em pacientes sem disfunção temporomandibular. Materiais e métodos: 59 tomografias de pacientes 23 do sexo masculino e 36 do feminino, com idades entre 14 e 59 anos, foram classificadas em dolicofacial, mesofacial e braquifacial. Para avaliar a posição condilar, a dimensão dos espaços articulares foi é estudada. As tomografias foram medidas com o I-Cat Vision e o STATA 14 foi usado para a análise estatística, endossada pelo comitê de ética da Universidad del Valle. Resultados: Foi realizada a correlação interobservador, obtendo-se o Kappa de 0,85. 45 pacientes correspondem ao biótipo braquifacial, 8 dolicofaciais e 6 mesofaciais. Em todos os espaços articulares, os braquifaciais apresentaram valores de maior dimensão e os dolicofaciais de menor dimensão. Verificou-se que os espaços mediais (CMS) apresentam valores semelhantes em termos de lateralidade dentro de cada biótipo, havendo diferenças de 0,02 a 0,09, porém, para os espaços articulares central (CCS) e lateral (CLS) maiores. diferenças entre um lado e o outro, tendo diferenças de 0,15 a 0,62 o que é significativo. CLS foi o espaço comum com a menor dimensão em todos os biótipos. Avaliando os espaços articulares para cada biótipo, foram encontradas diferenças significativas (P <0,05) no CMS direito, CCS direito e muito próximas à significância do CLS esquerdo. Valores mais elevados foram observados em todos os espaços articulares do sexo masculino, todos braquifaciais, sendo estatisticamente significantes (P <0,05) para o espaço articular do CCS direito, CLS direito e CLS esquerdo. Conclusões: As dimensões dos espaços articulares estão relacionadas ao biótipo facial, as medidas tomográficas em corte coronal são um insumo necessário como parte da análise e diagnóstico relacionado ao biótipo facial.

Background: Growth and development of dentocraniofacial complex occurs during various stage of development of dentition with TMJ as one of its centres of growth. The condition of temporomandibular joint can be visible from its condylar head form; therefore, it is crucial to recognize the normal morphology of condylar head during different stages of development of dentition. Aims: The aim of the study is to view the morphological appearance of condylar head during primary dentition, mixed dentition and permenant dentition. Subject and Methods: 400 panoramic images of 194 boys and 296 girls were collected and were divided into three groups bases on the stage of dentition. Shape of the condylar head were determined by tracing the print out of the panoramic image on an X ray viewer. Results: The study showed that during primary dentition stage shape of the conylar head was dominated by round shape and as growth and development occurs the condylar head shape changes to convex. Conclusion: The study describes the normal morphology of mandibular condyles in a child population attending The dentition status as well as growth of craniofacial has a significant role in determining condylar morphology.

SUMMARY: Unilateral condylar hyperplasia (UCH) is an alteration of the mandibular condyle growth. The aim of this study was to evaluate condyle volume, surface area, and Morphological Index (MI) differences between the affected condyle and an unaffected one in patients with UCH, evaluated through 3D reconstructions cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) images by two open-source softwares. A retrospective cross-sectional study of 16 patients with a certain UCH, 9 females and 7 males with mean age 25.13 ± 6.8 years was made. The image obtained from the CBCT of each condyle were reconstructed using the open-source software 3D SLICER 4.6 ®. The volumetric and area measurements of the 3D reconstruction of the mandibular condyle were made using the open-source soft- ware NETFABB basic 5.0 ®. The mean condylar volume of the hyperplastic condyles was 2.07 ± 1.51 cm3 and the non-hyperplastic condyles was 1.16 ± 0.82 cm3 (p<0.05). The mean area surface of the hyperplastic condyle was 11.77 ± 3.71 cm2 and the non-hyperplasic condyle mean was 8.05 ± 2.17 cm2 (p < 0.05). The mean area surface difference was 3.72 ± 3.57 cm2 (28.0 %). The MI of the hyperplastic condyle was 1.8 ± 0.3 mm and the non-affected condyle was 1.3 ± 0.6 mm (p < 0.05). The use of open-source software for 3D reconstruction with manual segmentation for evaluation of the volume and the condylar surface is a valid tool available to the clinic in the diagnosis and monitoring of patients with condylar hyperplasia.
RESUMEN: La hiperplasia condilar unilateral (HU) es una alteración del crecimiento del cóndilo mandibular. El objetivo de este estudio fue evaluar en pacientes el volumen del cóndilo, el área de superficie y las diferencias del índice morfológico (IM) entre el cóndilo afectado y el no afectado en pacientes, mediante tomografía computarizada de haz cónico (TCHC), por medio de dos softwares. Se realizó un estudio transversal retrospectivo de 16 pacientes con determinada HU, 9 mujeres y 7 hombres con edad media 25,13 ± 6,8 años. La imagen obtenida del TCHC de cada cóndilo se reconstruyó utilizando el software de código abierto 3D SLICER 4.6 ®. Las medidas volumétricas y de área de la reconstrucción 3D del cóndilo mandibular se realizaron utilizando el software de código abierto NETFABB basic 5.0 ®. El volumen condilar medio de los cóndilos hiperplásicos fue de 2,07 ± 1,51 cm3 y el de los cóndilos no hiperplásicos fue de 1,16 ± 0,82 cm3 (p <0,05). La superficie media del cóndilo hiperplásico fue de 11,77 ± 3,71 cm2 y la media del cóndilo no hiperplásico fue 8,05 ± 2,17 cm2 (p <0,05). La diferencia de superficie de área media fue 3,72 ± 3,57 cm2 (28,0 %). El IM del cóndilo hiperplásico fue de 1,8 ± 0,3 mm y el cóndilo no afectado fue de 1,3 ± 0,6 mm (p <0,05). Para el clínico, el uso de software de código abierto en la reconstrucción 3D con segmentación manual, para la evaluación del volumen y la superficie condilar, es una herramienta efectiva en el diagnóstico y tratamiento de pacientes con hiperplasia condilar.

Aim: To determine the association between the level of temporomandibular disorder (TMD) and the condylar position in a university population. Material and Methods: A cross-sectional study was carried out in 41 university students between 18 and 27 years old (21±2.28). The level of TMD was determined using the Helkimo index modified by Maglione, whereas the condylar position was found radiographically by lateral scan. The association was evaluated using the Chi-square statistical test. Results: Statistically significant association was found between the TMD level and the condylar position in the female gender (p=0.003). The central condylar position was the most frequent in females (70.00%), while in males the highest frequency of condylar positions was posterior and anterior, 40.48% and 35.71% respectively. In mild TMD, the most frequent condylar position was central (46.34%), whilst non-centric positions were prevalent in moderate TMD, with 2.44%. There was no statistically significant association between the TMD level and the condylar position of the participants, nor in males (p>0.05). Conclusion: The TMD was associated with the condylar position in females of the university population studied, analyzed in lateral temporomandibular joint scans. Non-centric condylar positions were more frequent in the moderate TMD level and centric positions in mild TMD.
Objetivo: Determinar la asociación entre el nivel de trastorno temporomandibular (TTM) y la posición condilar en una población universitaria. Material y Métodos: Se realizó un estudio transversal en 41 individuos universitarios entre 18 y 27 años (21±2.28). Se determinó el nivel de TTM mediante el índice de Helkimo modificado por Maglione, mientras que la posición condilar fue hallada radiográficamente mediante escanografía lateral. La asociación fue evaluada mediante la prueba estadística Chi-cuadrado. Resultados: Se halló asociación estadísticamente significativa entre el nivel de TTM y la posición condilar en el género femenino (p=0.003). La posición condilar central fue la más frecuente en las mujeres con un 70.00% de aparición, mientras que en los hombres la mayor frecuencia de posiciones condilares fue posterior y anterior con 40.48% y 35.71% respectivamente. En el TTM leve la posición condilar más frecuente fue la central con un 46.34% de aparición, mientras que las posiciones no-céntricas lo fueron en el TTM moderado con un 2.44%. No hubo asociación estadísticamente significativa entre el nivel de TTM y la posición condilar en el total de participantes, ni tampoco en el género masculino (p>0.05). Conclusión: Se encontró asociación entre el nivel de TTM y la posición condilar en escanografías laterales de articulación temporomanibular en el género femenino de la población universitaria estudiada, mientras que no se encontró en el total de muestra, ni en el género masculino. Las posiciones condilares no-céntricas fueron más frecuentes en el nivel de TTM moderado y las céntricas en el TTM leve.
