Treatment of Facial Deformities using 3D Planning and Printing of Patient-Specific Implants
Published on: May 23, 2020
Abstract:
In lateral cephalometric films of a group of male subjects, none of whom was a mouth breather, the statistical relationships between overbite and nasopharyngeal dimensions were weak. Moderate relationships were found between face height and nasopharyngeal dimensions. Strongest correlations, with a peak at 10 years, were between--Face height and nasopharyngeal height (+) Face height and nasopharyngeal area (+) Face height and roof angle (-) Dynamic correlations between overbite, face height and nasopharyngeal dimensions were weak. Class II malocclusion subjects on average showed--Smaller Nasopharyngeal and Adenoid Areas. Larger Airways in both real and proportional terms, compared with Class I and normal occlusion subjects.

Cranial Bones: Lateral View
The temporal bone forms the lower lateral side of the skull. The temporal bone is subdivided into several regions. The flattened upper portion is the squamous portion of the temporal bone. Below this area and projecting anteriorly is the zygomatic process of the temporal bone, which forms the posterior portion of the zygomatic arch. Posteriorly is the mastoid portion of the temporal bone. Projecting...

Nasopharynx
The nasopharynx, bordered by the conchae of the nasal cavity, serves exclusively as an air conduit. In its superior region, the pharyngeal tonsils or adenoids are located. These tonsils are clusters of lymphoid reticular tissue akin to a lymph node. The precise...
