Cephalometric Assessment of Post Treatment Vertical Changes in Patients Undergone Fixed Orthodontic Treatment
Cephalometric Assessment of Post Treatment Vertical Changes in Patients Undergone Fixed Orthodontic Treatment
Tooth movement in vertical plane can rotate the mandible clockwise with
increase in facial height and these changes will be deleterious in subjects with
vertical growth pattern.
The purpose of this study was to evaluate changes in vertical plane in adult
Orthodontic patients.
A few studies demonstrated that mandibular opening as a
consequence of orthodontic treatment does not invariably
return to pretreatment values.
The Sample
• 15 patients undergone fixed Orthodontic treatment.
