The purpose of this study was to investigate longitudinally, by cephalometric means,
alterations in craniocervical morphology and hyoid bone position in adult males and …

OBJECTIVE. Upper airway changes caused by orthognathic surgery operations have been
a topic of a concern in the orthodontic literature because of a possible development of …

Introduction Our objective was to evaluate the nasal passage (NP) and oropharyngeal (OP)
volumes of patients with different dentofacial skeletal patterns. Methods The study sample …

INTRODUCTION: In growing patients with skeletal discrepancies, early diagnosis, evidence-
based explanations of etiology, and assessment of functional factors can be vital for the …

Introduction: Associations of Class II malocclusions and vertical growth pattern with
obstruction of the upper and lower pharyngeal airways and mouth breathing have been …

Objective: Patients with OSAS (obstructive sleep apnea syndrome) demonstrate decreased
upper airway dimension and craniofacial skeletal abnormalities. The study was performed to …

INTRODUCTION: The objective of this study was to characterize the volume and the
morphology of the pharyngeal airway in adolescent subjects, relating them to their facial …

INTRODUCTION: Upper airway size is increasingly recognized as an important factor in
malocclusion. However, children with Class III malocclusion are somewhat neglected …

INTRODUCTION: In this retrospective study with 3-dimensional computed tomography, we
evaluated airway volume, soft-palate area, and soft-tissue thickness changes before and …

Objective: To test the null hypotheses that there are no significant differences in craniofacial
structures and orofacial airway dimensions in subjects with Class I malocclusion and …
