Three-dimensional assessment of dentofacial deformity in children with clefts
… shape analysis. Aim: To assess three-dimensional dentofacial deformity with a view to early appraisal of primary surgical outcome. Results: Significant differences in upper lip morphology were found between the cleft children and their unaffected peers; nasal asymmetry that became more obvious in …

TEMPOROMANDIBULAR JOINT DISORDERS AND NASAL SEPTUM DEVIATION IN DENTOFACIAL DEFORMITY PATIENTS
… of facial asymmetries present in a pre-surgical dentofacial deformity patient population to determine the prevalence of each subcategory. Associations between the craniofacial characteristics of each asymmetry and pre-surgical Jaw Pain and Function Questionnaire (JPFQ) scores, diagnosis of …

ENPP1 AND ESR1 GENOTYPE ASSOCIATE WITH CRANIOFACIAL ASYMMETRY AND SEVERITY OF TMD
… One hundred seventy-four patients with a dentofacial deformity were diagnosed as symmetric or subdivided into 4 asymmetric groups according to posteroanterior cephalometric measurements. 13 SNPs in ACTN3, ENPP1, ESR1, PITX,1 and PITX2 were selected for genotyping to determine whether …

Association of Masseter Muscle PITX2, ENPP1 and ESR1 Expression, Muscle Fiber Type, Temporomandibular Joint Disorders and Subclassifications of Craniofacial Asymmetry
Craniofacial asymmetry is a dentofacial deformity with genetic influences. The genes PITX2, ENPP1 and ESR1 have multiple genetic associations with functional properties in muscle and bone. The objectives of this study are to investigate how PITX2, ENPP1 and ESR1 gene expression associates with four …

Psychosocial and physiological assessments of orthognathic patients
Aims: The primary aim was to compare, in the RoI, generic oral health-related quality of life (OHIP14), condition-specific quality of life (OQLQ), the fear of negative evaluation (BFNES) and self-reported BMI of patients seeking surgical-orthodontic correction of their malocclusion versus those of …
