Background Craniofacial skeletal discrepancies have been associated with upper airway
dimensions. Objective To identify differences in upper airway volume across different sagittal …

Objectives: To evaluate, by using cone beam computed tomography, the skeletal, dental,
oropharyngeal (OP) airway volume, and nasal passage (NP) volume changes that occur …

Upper airway assessment is particularly important in the daily work of orthodontists, because
of its close connection with the development of craniofacial structures and with other …

Structured Abstract Objectives To assess whether morphology and dimension of the upper
airway differ between patients characterized by various craniofacial morphology. Setting and …

Highlights•Broadbent and Todd developed a roentgenographic craniostat in the 1920s.•An
improved device, the Broadbent-Bolton cephalometer, was introduced in …

Introduction In this study, we aimed to evaluate the adenoidal nasopharyngeal ratio (ANR)
on lateral cephalograms by assessing upper airway volumes using cone-beam computed …

Objective: To test the null hypothesis that there are no significant differences in pharyngeal
airway volumes among adult patients with different vertical skeletal patterns and a clinically …

Introduction Recent studies have shown some contradictory results when evaluating the
consequences of orthodontic-surgical treatments on the pharyngeal airway. Therefore, the …

Structured Abstract Objectives To investigate variability in the upper airway of subjects with
different anteroposterior skeletal patterns by evaluating the volume and the most constricted …

Objective: To evaluate the effects of functional appliance treatment on the oropharyngeal
airway volume, airway dimensions, and anteroposterior hyoid bone position of growing …
