Filter by:A prospective clinical trial to what extent inflammatory biomarkers are affected by the medication after orthognathic surgery in early surgical cases and whether these biomarkers affects the amount of maxillary or mandibular incisor root resorption.
twenty-four patients with dentoskeletal deformity of class III will be divided equally into two groups and will be subjected to orthognathic surgeries group A; will be treated by mandibular setback surgery while group B will be treated with bimaxillary orthognathic surgery in the form of mandibular setback and maxillary advancement surgeries. the total pharyngeal airway will be measured on lateral cephalometric radiographs, integrating retro-palatal and retro-glossal area, and statistically will be compared preoperative, immediate postoperative, and at 6 months post-surgically
The aim of this study is to evaluate the levels of pain, discomfort and acceptance between two treatment modalities of Class III correction of growing patients in the late mixed dentition period.
The study product is a Cold Ablation Robot-guided Laser Osteotome (CARLO®) robotic surgery device. It is a device that removes hard tissue such as bone by means laser ablation - it is therefore an alternative to Piezo-Electric osteotomes and/or oscillating saws or other mechanical instruments for bone cutting. In this study, the CARLO device is integrated with a computer-assisted pre-operative planning and intra-operative navigation, and will be used for Patients requiring an orthognathic procedure with a mid-face osteotomy, for whom a procedure plan is defined based on preoperative imaging.
This study evaluates the dentoskeletal effects produced by two maxillary protraction protocols in adolescent patients. Half of participants will be treated with a tooth-borne and tooth-bone-borne expanders as anchorage in the maxillary arch. Miniscrews will be used as anchorage in the mandibular arch for both groups.
This experimental study aims to evaluate the efficiency of the Modified Fixed Mandibular Retractor Appliance in the treatment of skeletal class III malocclusion. The study sample will consist of 44 patients with skeletal class III malocclusion. The sample will be allocated randomly into two groups: experimental group and untreated control group. The soft and hard tissue changes will be assessed using lateral cephalometric radiographs before the treatment and after obtaining 3mm positive overjet.
The investigator will assess the inverted sequence approach in the treatment of class III patient undergoing bimaxillary orthognathic surgery
This experimental study aims to evaluate the efficiency of the orthodontic removable traction appliance in the treatment of skeletal class III malocclusion. The study sample will consist of 44 patients with skeletal class III malocclusion. The sample will be allocated randomly into two groups: experimental group and control group. The dentoskeletal changes will be assessed by using lateral cephalometric radiographs before treatment and after obtaining 3mm positive overjet.
An in vivo study evaluating the efficacy of the Tandem appliance in the treatment of maxillary deficiency in growing patients compared to the conventional facemask appliance treatment. Pre-treatment and post-treatment lateral cephalograms will be taken. Dentofacial, sagittal and vertical skeletal measurements will be taken at three assessment times. Changes within each group will be assessed. In addition, the changes between the two groups will be compared.
Deliberate hypotension is defined as lowering the systolic blood pressure to 80-90mmHg, or the mean blood pressure to 50-65mmHg. This technique is usually employed for operations that have a high risk of intraoperative hemorrhage, such as orthognathic surgery. Several different regimens are used to lower the patient's blood pressure, such as vasodilators, autonomic nervous system inhibitors, opioids and inhalation anesthetics. However, the effects that these agents have on the QTc and Tp-e intervals during deliberate hypotension is not known. Virtually every kind of anesthetic is reported to have some effect on the QTc and Tp-e intervals. Because orthognathic surgery usually takes 3-4 hours to complete, the amount of anesthetics and drugs used to maintain low blood pressure is not small. Therefore, the effect that these agents may have on the QTc and Tp-e intervals may not be negligible. The investigators of the present study found that the high dose of commonly used hypotensive agents tend to prolong these variabilities to some extent. This study will be able to provide insight as to which hypotensive anesthesia regimen has the least effect on the QTc and Tp-e intervals, and therefore will be helpful in minimizing cardiovascular risks of deliberate hypotensive anesthesia.
