Effects of force magnitude on dental arches in cervical headgear therapy.

Aim: To study the influence of different force magnitudes on dental arches in cervical headgear (CHG) treatment.

Material And Methods: In this controlled clinical trial, patients (n = 40) were treated with CHG with light (L, 300 g, n = 22) or heavy force (H, 500 g, n = 18) magnitude. Subjects were asked to use CHG for 10 hours a day for 10 months.

The impact of force magnitude on the first and second maxillary molars in cervical headgear therapy.

Aim: To study the effect of force magnitude on the maxillary first and second molars in cervical headgear (CHG) therapy.

Material And Methods: In this controlled clinical trial, patients (n = 40) were treated with CHG with a light (L, 300 g, n = 22) or a heavy force (H, 500 g, n = 18) magnitude. The subjects were asked to wear CHG for 10 hours a day for 10 months.

Impact of force magnitude on effectiveness in cervical headgear therapy: a cephalometric analysis.

Aim: The main aim of this study was to study the impact of different force magnitudes on effectiveness in cervical headgear (CHG) therapy.

Materials And Methods: Forty patients were treated with CHG with light (L; 300 g) or heavy (H; 500 g) force in this controlled clinical trial. Patients were asked to wear CHG for 10 hours/day for 10 months.

Adherence to instructions and fluctuation of force magnitude in cervical headgear therapy.

Objectives: To investigate how patients adhere to instructions and how force magnitude fluctuates and influences the use of cervical headgear (CHG) therapy.

Materials And Methods: In this controlled clinical trial, subjects (n = 40) were treated with CHG with light (L, 300 g) or heavy (H, 500 g) force. Patients were asked to wear CHG for 10 hours per day for 10 months (ie, during sleep), but the importance for treatment of wearing CHG also in the evening hours was emphasized.
