Objective: The direction and amount of retrusive movement may be correlated with the amount of joint space and the maximum intercuspal position of the condyle. The aim of this study was to identify any such correlation using an ultrasonic jaw motion analyzer and digital volumetric tomographic (DVT) scans.
Methods: Thirty-five dental students were selected as subjects. DVT scans were obtained using a next-generation i-CAT CBCT unit, and the direction and amount of retrusive movement were measured with a 3-D analyzer.
Results: Spearman Rho correlation tests showed no correlation between the amount of retrusive movement and the condyle position and joint space on either the right or left side.
Discussion: There is sufficient reason to suggest that retrusive movement of the condyle does not occur in isolation but is influenced by glenoid fossa bone morphology.

Background: Retrusive profiles show an appearance of aging with an under-projected vermilion and pronounced nasolabial folds due to deficient bone support.
Purpose: A study was made of the association between orthognathic surgery and changes in the nasolabial and vermilion areas in patients with retrusive profiles.
Study Design, Setting, Sample: A retrospective cohort study evaluated patients subjected to bimaxillary surgery according to the Barcelona Line (BL) protocol during 2021 at Teknon Medical Center (Barcelona, Spain).
