- Deep overbite is a prevalent malocclusion that is challenging to treat and maintain over the long term, necessitating an update to existing literature on the subject.
- A systematic review of research indicated that the average relapse rate for deep overbite correction is 47.27%, with variability based on treatment type and age at treatment initiation.
- Factors such as the orthodontic method used and the age of patients at the start of treatment significantly influence the stability of deep overbite corrections.
Objective: To determine the cephalometric craniofacial characteristic of the child with chronic rhinopharyngeal obstruction.
Material And Methods: It is about a comparative cross-sectional study with etiologic aiming including children of the 2 sexes, old from 3 to 6 years. The pathological subjects are represented by those presenting a chronic rhinopharyngeal obstruction due to the presence of hypertrophied tonsils (n = 29) and the "normal" subjects, those without any rhinopharyngeal obstruction (n = 30).
Aim: The goal of this study is to know the modifications of the cranio-cervical posture which accompany the functional anomalies by the nasal breathe of black African children.
Material And Method: The study consists of a cephalometric comparison. Sixteen parameters measured on cephalograms of 98 schoolboys from 6 to 15 years were used.
Introduction: The aim of this study was to investigate if there are differences or not between African ethnic groups in order to determine any ethnic and regional differences in the facial morphology.
Material: Lateral cephalograms of 53 young Ivorians, 50 young Senegalese and 62 young Chadians, obtained under the same conditions in each country, were measured. Ten skeletal, eleven dento-skeletal and twelve soft tissue variables were investigated.
