Precision Of Temporary Anchorage Device Placement With 2d Vs. 3d Diagnostic Tools And Surgical Guides, Howard Lee

Loma Linda University Electronic Theses, Dissertations & Projects

Current methods of temporary anchorage device (TAD) planning and placement are performed by radiographic analysis in a two-dimensional plane that lends itself to inaccuracy secondary to variations in the angle from which the radiograph is taken, as well as the magnification of the radiographic image, resulting in an increased likelihood of placement errors. The purpose of this study was to compare a three-dimensional (3D) TAD planning and placement technique to a traditional two-dimensional (2D) technique. In the 2D group, periapical radiographs and pre-fabricated wire guides were used for planning and placement of TADs on five plastic models. For the 3D …

Influence Of Mandibular Fixed Retainers On Diagnostic Quality Of Cranial Mri, Norman E. Carter

Loma Linda University Electronic Theses, Dissertations & Projects

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the diagnostic quality of MR images taken on subjects with different types of orthodontic lingual retainers in place. The study provides guidelines and recommendations for use of lingual retainer materials in those patients who are or may potentially undergo routine magnetic resonance imaging. Ten subjects had impressions taken and models made for retainer tray fabrication. Removable trays with each lingual retainer material incorporated in them were fabricated from the models. Subjects underwent scans with each of the five test trays in place. T1 sagittal (T1), T2 axial (T2), gradient echo (GRE), and …

The Effects Of The Quadhelix Appliance On The Dentition And Adjacent Buccal Bone, Shannon Hilgers

Loma Linda University Electronic Theses, Dissertations & Projects

Maxillary palatal expansion has long been used in orthodontics as a means of correcting constricted and collapsed dental arches. The quadhelix appliance, developed by Drs. Robert Ricketts and Ruel Bench, expands buccal segments and causes distobuccal rotation in upper first molars. The objective of this study was to assess the direct effects that the quadhelix appliance on the surrounding dentition and buccal bone in the maxillary premolar and molar areas in a finite, measurable manner. This assessment was made using the NewTom 3G. The pre-quadhelix and post-quadhelix NewTom 3G images of twenty patients treated in the Graduate Orthodontic Clinic at …

The Skeletal Effects To The Maxilla After Rapid Maxillary Expansion Using Cbct, Brett J. Garrett

Loma Linda University Electronic Theses, Dissertations & Projects

The purpose of this study was to use cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) to quantitatively evaluate and compare skeletal expansion and alveolar tipping of the maxilla at the maxillary canine (Cl), first premolar (PI), second premolar (P2) and first molar (Ml) after rapid maxillary expansion (RME). Transverse effects to the maxillary suture, nasal width and maxillary sinus were also assessed. Included in the study were thirty consecutive patients (17 males and 13 females; mean age = 13.8 + 1.7 years) requiring RME using Hyrax appliances as part of their comprehensive orthodontic treatment. The pre-RME and post-RME measurements of palatal and …

Resorbable Barrier Effect In Sinus Graft Using Anorganic Bone, Kyung-Soo Choi

Loma Linda University Electronic Theses, Dissertations & Projects

The effect of a resorbable membrane on new bone formation in human maxillary sinus augmentation using anorganic bovine material is unclear at the present time. As a pilot study, six patients who required bilateral maxillary sinus augmentations for endoessous dental implant treatment were grafted with anorganic bovine bone material. All six patients had a resorbable collagen membrane placed over the graft material on only one side for the sinus augmentation. At the time of implant placement, a minimum of 8 months following sinus graft healing, a biopsy was made of each side to permit histomorphometric analysis.

Variability In Selecting Lateral Cephalometric Landmarks In Two Cbct Image Modes, Dana Nguyen

Loma Linda University Electronic Theses, Dissertations & Projects

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to determine the variability of lateral cephalometric landmark selection in two cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) lateral cephalometric simulations: 1) a mean projection image (MPI) and 2) a serial sagittal slice image (SSSI).

Methods: A MPI is a two-dimensional (2D) image obtained from the NewTom 3G^TM CBCT that resembles the conventional lateral cephalogram. A SSSI is a 2D image also obtained from CBCT data, but is created by superimposing a series of selected thin sagittal slices containing the required cephalometric landmarks. This study compared the Ricketts and Steiner analysis of the MPI …
