Abstract

Objectives: Association between craniofacial skeletal morphology and upper airway dimension is important. The aim of this retrospective study is to evaluate nasopharyngeal, oropharyngeal and hypopharyngeal airway sizes using lateral cephalometric radiographs. Materials and Methods: The material consisted lateral cephalometric radiographs taken from the archives of Erciyes University Faculty of Dentistry. The study group consisted of lateral cephalometric raiographs of 30  patients with skeletal Class  I malocclusion (20  female and 10  male), 31  patients with skeletal Class  II malocclusion (21  female and 10  male), 29  patients with skeletal Class III malocclusion (18 female and 11 male). PNS-PPW1 (nasopharingeal airway), SPT-PPW2 (oropharingeal airway) and Eb-PPW3 (hypofaringeal airway) values was measured. Otherwise, tongue length, vertical airway length, soft plate angulation, thickness and height, lower and upper pharyngeal spaces and hyoid bone position with respect to mandibular plane are evaluated. Statistical comparisons were performed using one-way ANOVA, and Fisher’s LSD tests. Results: No statistically significant difference in nasopharyngeal airway (F=0,970, p=0,383), oropharingeal airway (F=1,34, p=0,267), and hypofaringeal airway (F=1,86, p=0,161) sizes were seen among the patients with skeletal Class I, Class II, and Class III malocclusion. Conclusions: It is seen that the sizes of nasopharyngeal, oropharyngeal and hypopharyngeal airway are independent from skeletal Class I, Class II, and Class III malocclusions

Abstract

Kraniofasiyal iskeletsel morfoloji ve üst hava yolu boyutu arasındaki ilişki önemli bir tartışma konusudur. Bu retrospektif çalışmanın amacı iskeletsel Sınıf I, Sınıf II ve Sınıf III hastalar arasındaki nazofaringeal, orofaringeal ve hipofaringeal hava yolu boyutlarını lateral sefalometrik radyograflar kullanarak değerlendirmektir. Erciyes Üniversitesi Diş Hekimliği Fakültesi arşivinden elde edilen lateral sefalometrik radyograflar üzerinde, Sınıf I maloklüzyona sahip 30 hastanın (20 kız, 10 erkek), sınıf II maloklüzyona sahip 31 hastanın (20 kız, 11 erkek) ve sınıf III maloklüzyona sahip 29 hastanın (18 kız, 11 erkek) üst havayolu boyutları değerlendirilmiştir. Nazofaringeal hava yolu (PNS-UPW), orofaringeal hava yolu (U-MPW) ve hipofaringeal hava yolu (V-LPW) boyutları ölçülmüştür. Ayrıca dil uzunluğu, vertikal hava yolu uzunluğu, yumuşak damağın angulasyonu, uzunluğu, kalınlığı ve yüksekliği, alt ve üst faringeal boşluk miktarları ve mandibular düzleme göre hyoid kemiğin konumu değerlendirilmiştir. Elde edilen veriler istatistiksel olarak Tek Yönlü Varyans Analizi ve Fisher’ın LSD Testi kullanılarak karşılaştırılmıştır. Nazofaringeal havayolu (F­­=0,970, p=0,383), Orofarengial havayolu (F=1,34, p=0,267) ve Hipofaringeal havayolu (F=1,86,  p=0,161) boyutları arasında iskeletsel Sınıf I, Sınıf II ve Sınıf III maloklüzyona sahip hastalar arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı fark görülmemiştir. Ancak üst ve alt faringeal boşluk miktarları gruplar arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı fark göstermiştir. Sonuç olarak, nazofaringeal, orofarengial ve hipofaringeal havayolu boyutları iskeletsel Sınıf I, Sınıf II ve Sınıf III maloklüzyondan bağımsızdır.
