Abstract
Objectives:
The
aim of
the present study
was to evaluate
the correlation between headgear wear
duration and correction of skeletal and dental Class II malocclusion in
preadolescent patients.
Materials
and Methods: The study
material consisted of pre and post treatment lateral cephalograms, and actual
headgear wear hours calculated from data recorded monthly by Compliance
Science System and Affirm smart headgear modules, (Compliance Science System (CSS)
and Affirm smart headgear modules, Ortho Kinetics, Vista, California, USA) of 30 patients (14 female and 16 male) treated with
cervical headgear for 12 months. The mean age was 10.43 ± 1.07 years. Initial
and progress cephalograms were analyzed according to skeletal and dental
landmarks to evaluate treatment effect of the appliance. The actual number of
hours of appliance wear was calculated by data from timer modules collected
every monthly visit. Statistical analysis was performed by using SPSS 24.0.
Results: Results showed that a restriction of sagittal growth
of maxilla was achieved in the group using the cervical headgear over 12 hours,
while a sagittal growth was observed in the group using the headgear for less
than 12 hours daily.
Conclusion:
The cervical headgear is still used in orthodontics to
restrict the forward growth of maxilla in Class II division 1 patients with a
normal or low angle profile. By means of objective data for monthly appliance
usage, this study showed that in order to achieve the targeted results the
cervical headgear should be used at least 12 hours daily.
Özet
Amaç: Bu çalışmanın
amacı, genç bireylerde, servikal
headgear kullanım süresi ile iskeletsel ve dental Sınıf II maloluzyonun
tedavi sonucu ile arasındaki ilişkinin değerlendirilmesidir.
Materyal ve Metod: Çalışma
materyali, servikal headgear ile tedavi olan ortalama yaş
aralığı 10.43 ± 1.07 olan 30 hastanın (14 kız and 16 erkek)
tedavi öncesi ve tedavi sonrası lateral sefalometrik radyografileri ve Compliance
Science System and Affirm smart headgear modül, (Compliance Science System (CSS)
and Affirm smart headgear modules, Ortho Kinetics, Vista, California, USA) ile
kaydedilen aylık aparey kullanma sürelerini gösteren verilerden oluşmuştur. Apareyin
tedavi üzerindeki etkinliği hastaların tedavi öncesi ve sonrası laterakl
sefalamoterik radyografilerinin üzerinde belirlenen iskeletsel ve dental
noktalar ile yapılan ölçümler ile belirlenmiştir. Aparey kullanma süreleri her ay
kontrol randevusunda modüllerin okutulması ile edlde edilmiştir. İstatistiksel
analizler SPSS 24.0 programı kullanılara
yapılmıştır.
Bulgular: Apareyi 12
saatten fazla kullanan grupta maksillanın sagittal yön büyümesinin frenlendiği
gözlenirken, aparey, 12 saatten daha az kullanan hastalarda sagittal yönde
maksillar büyümenin olduğu gözenmiştir.
Sonuç: Servikal
headgear Sınıf II bölüm 1 malokluzyon tedavisinde maksillar büyümeyi frenlemek
amacı ile kullanılan bir apareydir. Servikal headgear kullanımında istenilen
hedefe erişilmesi için apareyin günde en az 12 saat kullanılması gerektiği
objektif veriler kullanılarak ortaya konulmuştur.
