ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Facial divergence during growth and development affects both the anterior and posterior alveolar bone dimensions in the maxilla and mandible, and the dentoalveolar compensation mechanism in severe vertical skeletal discrepancies remains unclear.AIMS:
To evaluate the (1) difference in dentoalveolar heights among subjects with different vertical facial patterns; (2) association between the dentoalveolar bone height and other cephalometric variables; (3) effect of sex on dentoalveolar height measurements. MATERIAL ANDMETHODS:
Non-growing subjects with skeletal Class I (0°RESULTS:
Measurements on a total of 204 patients (81 males, 123 females) were analysed. At the level of the incisor and premolar regions, both dentoalveolar and alveolar bone heights were significantly larger in hyperdivergent group when compared to hypodivergent group, whereas at the level of the molar region, no difference was found among groups. Moderate to strong correlations were found between dentoalveolar bone and vertical skeletal measurements.CONCLUSIONS:
In the maxilla and mandible, the dentoalveolar compensation mechanism in skeletal Class I subjects results in an increased vertical height in the anterior dentoalveolar segment in hyperdivergent subjects and a reduced one in hypodivergent subjects.Palavras-chave
