Abstract:
OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the decompensation effectiveness and alveolar bone remodeling of mandibular anterior teeth after preoperative orthodontic treatment in high-angle patients with skeletal class Ⅱ malocclusion using lateral cephalogram and cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT).
METHODS:Thirty high-angle patients with skeletal class Ⅱ malocclusion who had received preoperative orthodontic treatment and orthognathic surgery in Peking University School and Hospital of Stomatology between Ja-nuary 2017 and August 2022 and had taken lateral cephalogram and CBCT before and after preoperative orthodontic treatment were selected. Items were measured with lateral cephalogram including: The lower central incisor (L1)-Frankfort plane angle (L1-FH), the L1-mandibular plane angle (L1-MP), the L1-nasion-supramental angle (L1-NB) and the vertical distance from the incisal edge of lower central incisor to NB line (L1-NB distance), etc. The incidence of dehiscence/fenestration and the length of dehiscence at labial side (d-La) and lingual side (d-Li) were measured using CBCT. Pearson correlation analysis was used to evaluate the correlation between the changes of d-Li of L1 and age, duration of preoperative orthodontic treatment and the cephalometric measurements before preoperative orthodontic treatment to screen out risk factors affecting the periodontal risk of preoperative orthodontic treatment in high-angle patients with skeletal class Ⅱ malocclusions.
RESULTS:After preoperative orthodontic treatment, L1-FH, L1-MP, L1-NB and L1-NB distances changed by 11.56°±5.62°, -11.13°±5.53°, -11.57°±5.43° and (-4.99±1.89) mm, respectively, and the differences were all statistically significant (P < 0.05). Among the 180 measured mandibular anterior teeth, 45 cases with labial dehiscence/fenestration before preoperative orthodontic treatment (T0) had no longer labial dehiscence/fenestration after preope-rative orthodontic treatment (T1); 142 cases without lingual dehiscence/fenestration at T0 had lingual dehiscence/fenestration at T1. After preoperative orthodontic treatment, the d-La of lower lateral incisors (L2), lower canines (L3) and lower anterior teeth (L1+L2+L3) decreased by (0.95±2.22) mm, (1.20±3.23) mm and (0.68±2.50) mm, respectively, and the differences were statistically significant (P < 0.05); the d-Li of L1, L2, L3 and L1+L2+L3 increased by (4.43±1.94) mm, (4.53±2.35) mm, (3.19±2.80) mm and (4.05±2.46) mm, respectively, and the differences were statistically significant (P < 0.05). The increase of d-Li of L1 was positively correlated with L1-FH (r=0.373, P=0.042).
CONCLUSION:This study showed that high-angle patients with skeletal class Ⅱ ma-locclusion could achieve ideal decompensation effect of mandibular anterior teeth after preoperative orthodontic treatment with bilateral mandibular first premolars extracted, but the lingual periodontal risk of mandibular anterior teeth was increased. This risk could be correlated to L1-FH before preoperative orthodontic treatment, which should be paid more attention in the design of orthodontic-orthognathic surgical treatment.
