Effect of rapid maxillary expansion on nasomaxillary structure and sleep disordered breathing in children with obstructive sleep apnoea.
Aust Dent J

Department of Clinical Sciences and Translational Medicine, University Tor Vergata, Rome, Italy.
Objective: The aim of this study was to assess the effect of RME on upper airway structure and its relationship to improvements in sleep disordered breathing.
Methods: The study was carried out in 23 children with malocclusion and OSA. Clinical assessment visits, daytime sleepiness questionnaire, polysomnography and orthognatodontic examination were performed before (T0) and 4 (T1) and 12 (T2) months after RME.

Background: Defining the nature of the unilateral cleft lip and palate nasal deformity (uCLND) and its optimal surgical correction continues to be a challenge. The purpose of this study was to develop a data-driven model of the primary unrepaired osseocartilaginous skeleton of the nasomaxillary complex.
Methods: CT scans of nineteen 3-month-old infants with unrepaired unilateral cleft lip and palate and nineteen age- and race-matched controls were analyzed.
Long-Term Three-Dimensional Morphometric Outcome Study of Nasal Bone in Cleft Patients.

Article Synopsis
- Cleft lip nose deformities involve both bony and soft tissue aspects, yet this study is the first to examine nasal bone characteristics specifically.
- The research compared nasal bone features in adults with various types of cleft lip and palate against control patients using CT scans, focusing on measurements like piriform width and nasomaxillary angle.
- Findings indicate that those with bilateral cleft lip and palate have a significantly wider and lower nose compared to controls, suggesting they may require different treatment approaches targeting bony nasal structure rather than just soft tissue.

Article Synopsis
- The study evaluated a stepwise treatment approach for class III malocclusion and flat nasal deformity involving orthodontics, orthognathic surgery, and rhinoplasty, with a focus on long-term stability.
- A total of 27 patients with nasomaxillary hypoplasia underwent these procedures, and all reported satisfaction with outcomes and no major complications.
- Findings indicated significant improvements in midface contour, nasal projection, and occlusion stability, with measurable positive changes in cephalometric and soft-tissue parameters post-surgery.
Surgical reconstruction of a composite nasomaxillary and superior labial defect in a dog with a fascia lata graft, titanium mesh implant and angularis oris axial pattern flap.

Dentistry and Oromaxillofacial Surgery, Department of Surgical Sciences, School of Veterinary Medicine, University of Wisconsin-Madison, Madison, WI, United States.
Objective: To document the successful surgical reconstruction of a composite nasomaxillary and superior labial defect using a fascia lata graft, titanium mesh and angularis oris axial pattern flap in a dog.
Case Summary: An estimated 2-year-old female intact mixed-breed dog was presented with a composite (hard and soft tissue) nasomaxillary defect, suspected to be caused by a chemical burn. Physical examination revealed nasal discharge, exposed bilateral maxilla and nasal bone, nasomaxillary fistula with air movement, and intrinsic discoloration of the left maxillary canine tooth.
