[Long-term stability and relapse of deep bite correction: a systematic review].

Introduction:  Deep overbite is one of the most common malocclusions and is the most difficult to treat successfully. The real challenge remains the stability of long-term deep overbite correction. A search through the scientific literature revealed only one systematic review on this subject.

Comparison of dental arch measurements according to the grade and the obstructive character of adenoids.

Introduction: Obstructive adenoid hypertrophy is cited as one of the causes of mouth breathing and leads to disharmony in the development of orofacial structures. The objective of this study was to compare the measurements of dental arches according to the grade and the obstructive character of adenoids.

Materials And Methods: A cross-sectional study was carried out with 86 children.

Cephalometric norms of a Burkina Faso population.

Introduction: After a clinical examination, in order to implement an appropriate treatment planning, additional examinations such as lateral cephalograms, were performed. They were submitted to a cephalometric analysis such as the Tweed-Merrifield analysis. These cephalometric analyses based on a synthesis of aesthetic criteria established for a Caucasian European-American white people population could not serve as the reference for an African population.

[Relationships between the size of the adenoids and the dental arch measurements].

Introduction: Enlarged adenoids are often associated with oral breathing. The latter can impact the dental arches. The purpose of this study was to determine the relationships between dental arch measurements and the size of adenoids.
