Unlabelled: A strong and specific comprehensive physiological association has been documented between mandibular jaw movements and related periods of normal or disturbed breathing across different sleep stages. The mandibular jaw movement biosignal can be incorporated in the polysomnography, displayed on the screen as a function of time like any standard polysomnography signal (eg, airflow, oxygen saturation, respiratory inductance plethysmography bands) and interpreted in the context of the target period of breathing and its associated respiratory effort level. Overall, the mandibular jaw movement biosignal that depicts the muscular trigeminal respiratory drive is a highly effective tool for differentiating between central and obstructive sleep episodes including hypopneas and for providing clinicians with valuable insights into wake/sleep states, arousals, and sleep stages. These fundamental characteristics of the mandibular jaw movement biosignal contrast with photoplethysmography, airflow, or oxygen saturation signals that provide information more about the consequence of the disturbed breathing episode than about the event itself.

Department of Clinical Sciences, Sapienza University of Rome, Rome, Italy.
Backgrounds And Aims: Submental skin laxity (SSL), manifesting as sagging skin and double chin, can significantly affect patients' self-perception and social interactions. While surgical treatments exist, non-invasive methods are increasingly sought for their minimal recovery time. This study assesses the safety and effectiveness of a novel microwave-based device for treating SSL, aiming to provide long-term improvements in skin tightness and appearance.

College of Stomatology, Dalian University, Dalian, Liaoning, 116622, China.
Objectives: This study analyzed the differences in the upper airway of patients with skeletal Class III high-angle malocclusion with and without mandibular deviation, and further investigated whether there are differences in the changes in upper airway space after orthognathic surgery between the two groups.
Materials And Methods: 15 patients with skeletal Class III high-angle malocclusion and mandibular deviation, and 15 patients without mandibular deviation were selected to explore the impact of mandibular deviation on the upper airway. Additionally, 16 patients with mandibular deviation undergoing orthodontic-orthognathic combined treatment, and 13 patients without mandibular deviation, were selected to investigate the differences in the changes in upper airway space after orthognathic surgery between the two groups.

Introduction: The aim of this article is to present the diagnostic and therapeutic approach to unilateral posterior vertical insufficiency.
Material And Methods: The authors describe the management protocol.
Results: Posterior vertical insufficiency (PVI) manifests clinically as obliquity of the maxillo-mandibular occlusal plane and bicommissural line, and deviation of the chin.

Introduction: The cant of the occlusal plane in the frontal plane reflects facial asymmetry. Its treatment requires close collaboration between the orthodontist and the maxillofacial surgeon. In case of mild cant, treatment consists in coordination of dental arches followed by mandibular osteotomy.

Pathological fractures after jaw cyst surgery are rare clinically but are a serious complication. Once a pathological fracture occurs, treatment time and economic costs increase, and doctors face difficulty in handling it. This article reports a case of a patient with mandibular pathological fractures after multiple odontogenic keratocyst surgery of the jaw.
