Item Correlation Between Cephalometric Nasal Changes and Patients' Perception After Orthognathic Surgery(2021) Atakan, Azize; Ozcirpici, Ayca Arman; 33741253Introduction: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the correlation between cephalometric measurements and patients' perception of nasal changes in those with Class III malocclusion who had undergone orthognathic surgery. Methods: Eighty-five patients (36 men and 49 women) who received maxillary advancement with (group 1) or without (group 2) maxillary impaction were included in this study. Lateral cephalometric radiographs taken before and at the end of the treatment were analyzed. The patients were given an esthetic evaluation form and asked to evaluate their own noses on the Likert scale (subjective perception), while at the same time, they were asked to evaluate profile silhouettes without knowing that it was their own profile (objective perception). The changes and correlations between the cephalometric measurements and the scores obtained from the esthetic perception questionnaire were evaluated statistically. Results: Postoperative nasal tip inclination and rotation, nasofacial angle, and sagittal position of pronasale had increased significantly (P <0.05), whereas nasal tip protrusion, nasofrontal angle, and vertical position of pronasale had decreased (P <0.05). The change in the nasolabial angle and vertical position of pronasale was statistically different between the 2 surgical groups (P <0.05). In the end, a significant increase was observed in the patients' objective nasal esthetic scores (P <0.05). Conclusions: Soft tissues are affected by the vertical and sagittal surgical movements of the maxilla. There was a moderate correlation between patients' perception of nasal changes and cephalometric measurements. The subjective evaluation of the nose was similar among patients after surgery, but in the objective assessment, patients found their noses more esthetic.Item Early Maxillary Expansion with the Ni-Ti Memory Leaf Expander-A Compliance-Free Fixed Slow Maxillary Expansion Screw: A Report of 2 Cases(2021) Ulug, Bahar; Ozcirpici, Ayca Arman; 35110164Transversal problems such as crowding and crossbite are one of the most common problems dealt with in early orthodontic treatments. Early correction of these problems may ease or even eliminate the future need for treatment. This paper presents the management of 2 cases with transverse discrepancy using the Ni-Ti Memory Leaf Expander-a new compliance-free slow maxillary expansion appliance. The total treatment time for both cases was 9 months. In both cases, the inter-canine, inter-premolar, and inter-molar distances, as well as the arch length, have all increased.Item Sagittal skeletal correction using symphyseal miniplate anchorage systems: Success rates and complications(2019) Cubuk, Secil; Kaya, Burcak; Sahinoglu, Zahire; Ates, Ufuk; Ozcirpici, Ayca Arman; Uckan, Sina; 30413832ObjectivesAim of this study is to evaluate success rates and complications related with symphyseal miniplate anchorage systems used for treatment of Class2 and Class3 deformities.MethodsAtotal of 58miniplates applied to 29growing patients were evaluated. The first group comprised 24symphyseal miniplates applied to 12patients and Forsus Fatigue Resistant Devices were attached to the head of the miniplates for mandibular advancement. The second group consisted of 34symphyseal miniplates applied to 17patients and intermaxillary elastics were applied between acrylic appliances placed on the maxillary dental arch and the symphyseal miniplates for maxillary protraction. Success rate and complications of the symphyseal plate-screw anchorage system were evaluated.ResultsThe overall success rate of symphseal miniplates was 87.9%. Six miniplates showed severe mobility and 2miniplates broke during orthodontic treatment. Infection, miniplate mobility and mucosal hypertrophy were statistically different between the two groups.ConclusionsSymphyseal miniplates were generally used as successful anchorage units in most patients. Infection, mobility, and mucosal hypertrophy occurred more frequently in Class2 deformity correction. However, the success rates regarding the two treatment modalities were comparable. ZusammenfassungZieleZiel der vorliegenden Studie ist es, Erfolgsraten und Komplikationen im Zusammenhang mit symphysealen Miniplattenverankerungssystemen zur Behandlung von Klasse-II- und -III-Anomalien zu bewerten.MethodenAusgewertet wurden insgesamt 58Miniplatten, die bei 29Patienten im Wachstum inseriert wurden. In der ersten Gruppe wurden 24symphyseale Miniplatten bei 12Patienten inseriert. Zur Korrektur der Unterkieferrucklage wurden Forsus-Apparaturen an den Miniplatten verankert. In der zweiten Gruppe wurden 34symphyseale Miniplatten bei 17Patienten inseriert. Zur Protraktion des Oberkiefers wurden intermaxillare Elastics verwendet, die zwischen Acrylgeraten im Oberkiefer und den symphysealen Miniplatten eingehangt wurden. Untersucht wurden Erfolgs- und Komplikationsraten des symphysealen Platten-Schrauben-Verankerungssystems.ErgebnisseDie Gesamterfolgsrate der symphsealen Miniplatten betrug 87,9%. Bei 6Miniplatten zeigte sich eine hohe Mobilitat, 2frakturierten wahrend der kieferorthopadischen Behandlung. Das Auftreten von Infektion, Miniplattenmobilitat und Schleimhauthypertrophie war zwischen den beiden Gruppen statistisch unterschiedlich.SchlussfolgerungenSymphyseale Miniplatten wurden in der Regel bei den meisten Patienten als erfolgreiche Verankerungseinheiten eingesetzt. Infektion, Mobilitat und Schleimhauthypertrophie traten haufiger bei Klasse-2-Korrekturen auf, die Ergebnisse beider Behandlungsmethoden unterschieden sich jedoch nur geringfugig.
