UNASSIGNED: The MEDLINE, Embase, and Scopus databases were searched. Inclusion criteria included longitudinal and cross-sectional studies on cephalometric measurement of skeletal tissues and a study population ≤ 18 years with a well-balanced face and normal occlusion. Key study parameters were extracted, and knowledge was synthesized. A quality appraisal was performed using a 10-point scale.
UNASSIGNED: The final selection comprised of 12 longitudinal and 33 cross-sectional studies, the quality of which ranged from good to excellent. Our results showed that from childhood to adulthood, the length of the cranial base increased significantly while the cranial base angle remained constant; both the maxilla and mandible moved forward and downward. The profile becomes straighter with age.
UNASSIGNED: Growth patterns in children with a well-balanced face and normal occlusion follow accepted theories of growth.
■MEDLINE,Embase,搜索了Scopus数据库。纳入标准包括对骨骼组织进行头颅测量的纵向和横断面研究,研究人群≤18岁,面部平衡良好,咬合正常。提取了关键研究参数,知识是综合的。使用10分制进行质量评估。
■最终选择包括12项纵向研究和33项横截面研究,质量从好到优。我们的结果表明,从童年到成年,颅底的长度显着增加,而颅底角保持恒定;上颌骨和下颌骨都向前和向下移动。轮廓随着年龄的增长而变直。
■面部平衡和正常咬合的儿童的生长模式遵循公认的生长理论。
