Introduction The recent emphases on soft tissues as the limiting factor in treatment and on soft-tissue relationships in establishing the goals of treatment has made 3-dimensional (3D) analysis of soft…
A girl, aged 7 years 11 months, came for treatment with the chief complaint of lack of eruption of her maxillary right central and lateral permanent incisors. The radiographic analysis…
When a patient has an impacted tooth, the timing of orthodontic treatment, the type of surgical procedure to expose the tooth, the orthodontic mechanics, and the potential problems vary depending…
This article describes a patient whose permanent canines and premolars had not erupted at age 14 years, although their root formation was complete, with closed apices. Surgical and orthodontic treatment…
Cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) has become popular, and its many inherent advantages are indisputable. Nevertheless, CBCT is prescribed cautiously because the radiation dosage is higher than that of conventional radiography….
Cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) has become a popular modality in research, but it can be misused and misunderstood. Several image quality, bone biology, and statistical factors must be considered before…

Introduction In this study, we evaluated the accuracy and reliability of tooth-length and root-length measurements derived from cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) volumetric data. Methods CBCT scans were made of 7…
Introduction The purpose of this study was to evaluate the accuracy and reliability of cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) in the diagnosis of naturally occurring fenestrations and bony dehiscences. In addition,…
Introduction The purpose of this study was to quantify anteroposterior and transverse facial soft-tissue changes with respect to underlying skeletal movements after maxillomandibular advancements by using cone-beam computed tomography. Methods…
Introduction In this study, we tested the accuracy of the cone-beam computed tomography panoramic (pan)-like image in the projection of mesiodistal tooth angulations. Methods A plastic typodont with 28 teeth…
Introduction The aims of this retrospective study were to use cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) to assess changes in the volume of the oropharynx in growing patients with maxillary constriction treated…
Introduction The purpose of this study was to examine the maxillary response on the transverse dimensions to rapid palatal expansion (RPE) by using cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT). Methods Twenty-four children…
Introduction The purpose of this research was to examine methods for assessing the shape and growth of the mandible 3 dimensionally. Furthermore, 1 method was defined and applied. Methods Thirty…
Introduction The aim of this study was to assess the use of 3-dimensional facial averages for determining morphologic differences from various population groups. Methods We recruited 473 subjects from 5…
Introduction This prospective observational study evaluated changes in the 3-dimensional position and remodeling of the mandibular rami, condyles, and chin at splint removal and 1 year after mandibular advancement surgery….
Introduction The aim of this study was to assess the use of 3-dimensional facial averages for determining morphologic differences from various population groups. Methods We recruited 473 subjects from 5…
Introduction The aim of the study was to compare the reliability and accuracy of 3 commercially available digital imaging and communications in medicine (DICOM) viewers for measuring upper airway volumes….
