Changes In Airway Volume In Adult Patients Following Orthodontic Treatment With Premolar Extractions Versus Non-Extraction, Sunny Jisun Lee, Allison Kawata, Hayoung Michael Shin, David Chambers, Joorok Park, Heesoo Oh

Excellence Day

Recent concerns about the prevalence of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and its negative sequelae have led to investigations of how manipulation of the dentofacial complex may affect airway problems. CBCT can be used to measure airway dimensions of patients. Extraction of premolars is indicated as part of orthodontic treatment for patients who have severe crowding or protrusion of incisors. Some have suggested that the reduction in arch circumference after premolar extraction would lead to decreased airway volume, which may predispose a patient for sleep disordered breathing (SDB). The purpose of this study was to determine whether there is a significant …

Changes In Cephalometric Measurements In Adult Patients Following Orthodontic Treatment With Premolar Extractions Versus Non-Extraction, Byron Chou, David Dang, Adrienne Joy, David Chambers, Joorok Park, Heesoo Oh

Excellence Day

Extraction of premolars is indicated as part of orthodontic treatment for patients who have severe crowding or protrusion of incisors. CBCT can be used to locate cephalometric landmarks in 3D. The purpose of this study was to determine whether there are differences in sagittal, transverse, and vertical skeletal and dental dimensions for adult patients who were treated with premolar extractions in conjunction with orthodontic treatment compared to those who received orthodontic treatment without extractions.


Condylar Degeneration In Patients With Dental Open Bite Versus Skeletal Open Bite Utilizing Cbct, Alex Rauchle, Alston Trinh, Linda Phi, Brad Albertson, Joorok Park, Heesoo Oh May 2018

Condylar Degeneration In Patients With Dental Open Bite Versus Skeletal Open Bite Utilizing Cbct, Alex Rauchle, Alston Trinh, Linda Phi, Brad Albertson, Joorok Park, Heesoo Oh

Excellence Day

Idiopathic condylar resorption (ICR) is a condition in which either one or both condyles undergo degeneration. Bilateral TMJ involvement presents as a clockwise rotation of the mandible in the posterior-inferior direction, resulting in an anterior open bite. The purpose of the study was to assess TMJ condylar degeneration in dental open bites compared to skeletal open bites.
