Abstract:
UNASSIGNED: Understanding the orofacial characteristics and growth patterns in children is essential for both orthodontics and research on children with orofacial abnormalities. However, a concise resource of normative data on the size and relative position of these structures in different populations is not available. Our objective was to aggregate normative data to assess the growth of the orofacial skeletal structures in children with a well-balanced face and normal occlusion.
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.
摘要:
了解儿童的口面特征和生长模式对于正畸和口面异常儿童的研究都至关重要。然而,没有关于这些结构在不同人群中的大小和相对位置的规范数据的简明资源。我们的目标是汇总规范数据,以评估面部平衡且咬合正常的儿童的口面骨骼结构的生长。
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。
