Os resultados dos tratamentos foram constatados através da utilização do Protocolo de cefalometria preconizado pelo Departamento de Ortodontia da FOP-UNICAMP. A amostra constou de 56 radiografias cefalométricas, sendo 28 realizadas ao início do tratamento e 28 após a remoção do aparelho fixo, de pacientes leucodermas brasileiros, com maloclusão Classe II, divisão 1 de Angle. Foram realizados os testes Mann-Whitney (teste não paramétrico) para verificar a existência de diferença significativa na variação (inicial e final), das grandezas cefalométricas entre os gêneros e entre as faixas etárias, e o teste t de ¿Student¿ emparelhado, aplicado para constatar quais as grandezas cefalométricas apresentaram variação significativa do início para o final do tratamento (p? 0,05). Com base na análise dos resultados concluiu-se que somente as grandezas Pl.Ocl. e 1-NA não apresentaram variação significativa ao final do tratamento realizado (p>0,05); em 86 % da amostra foi observado o controle vertical através redução discreta do FMA e Pl. Ocl, acompanhados do aumento mais significativo da AFP em relação a AFA; a harmonia e equilíbrio facial foram observados com a redução do SNA, ANB e AO-BO, aumento do SNB, FMIA, Ângulo Z, 1.1, e a proporcionalidade entre LS e QT; no reposicionado dentário observou-se melhor posicionamento dos incisivos em suas bases ósseas demonstrados pela redução de 1.NA, 1.NB e IMPA, a níveis mais adequados. Na avaliação entre os gêneros não houve dimorfismo sexual para as grandezas avaliadas e quanto à idade, a faixa etária que possuía maior potencial de crescimento apresentou diferença significativa entre os momentos inicial e final do tratamento para as grandezas AFP, AFA e comprimento mandibular (p<0,05), demonstrando serem estas grandezas mais influenciadas pelo crescimento / Abstract: The present study had for purpose to evaluate, cephalometrilly, the results reached at the end of the orthodontics treatment accomplished with use of 10-2 directional forces system. Treatments' results were verified through use of cephalometrics protocol recommended by Orthodontics Department ¿ FOP - UNICAMP. The sample consisted of 56 cephalometrics x-rays, being 28 accomplished at the beginning of the treatment and 28 after removal fixed appliance, from Brazilian patients considered as leucoderms, with Classe II, division 1 of Angle's malocclusion. They were accomplished the test Mann-Whitney (a not parametric test) to verify the existence of significant difference in the variation (initial and final), of the cephalometrics greatness among genders and enter ages groups, and Student t test applied to verify which cephalometrics greatness presented significant variation among the beginning for the end of (p= 0,05). With base in the results analysis was ended that only the greatness OCCL.-FH. and 1-NA didn't present significant variation at the end of treatment (p>0,05); in 86% of the sample the vertical control was observed through discreet reduction of FMA and OCCL-FH, accompanied of the most significant increase of PFH in relation to AFH; the harmony and facial balance were observed with the reduction of SNA, ANB and AO-BO, increase of SNB, FMIA, Z Angle, 1.1 and the proportionality between UL and TC; in dental terms there was the best positioning of the incisors in your bony bases demonstrated by the reduction of 1.NA, 1.NB and IMPA, at more appropriate levels. In evaluation among genders there was not sexual dimorphism for the appraised greatness and with age's relationship, the age group that possessed more time of growth presented significant difference among the moments initial and final of the treatment for the greatness PFH, AFH and mandibular Length. (p <0,05), demonstrating be these greatness more influenced by the growth / Mestrado / Ortodontia / Mestre em Ortodontia

Epidemiological studies on malocclusion have been primarily concerned with its aetiology and distribution. However, due to the varied and often subjective methods of assessment, many of these studies provide conflicting data related to malocclusions (Solow, 1970). To address this, the F&eacute / d&eacute / ration Dentaire Internationale (FDI) in close collaboration with the World Health Organisation (WHO) developed an objective method for measuring occlusal traits (Baume et al., 1973). This method was used to obtain the epidemiological data on occlusal traits for 14-year-old children Kampala in order to provide baseline data related to malocclusion. A total of 402 subjects were examined. Of these 65% were female and 35% were male. Thirty percent of the sample had at least one dental anomaly. The most commonly extracted teeth were mandibular first molars (43.6%) and maxillary canines (17.3%). The high frequency of extracted permanent canines in this sample is unique. By and large, many of the occlusal traits related to the canine are attributable to the practice of ebinyo, a form of dental mutilation, which still seem to be rife in many communities in Uganda. Similar to other studies (Massler and Frankel, 1951 / de Muňiz, 1986 / Ferguson, 1988 / Kaka, 1993), mandibular first molars were five times more likely to be missing than maxillary first molars while the ratio of missing maxillary to mandibular canines was found to be 2.5:1. Crowding was most frequently observed in the mandibular incisal segment while spacing was mostly in the maxillary incisal region, thus supporting the view of Brunelle et al., (1996) that although prevalence may vary from study to study, more people have malaligned mandibular incisors than maxillary incisors concurs with these studies. Of the subjects studied, 6.8% had a diastema of 3mm and more. Regarding space measurements, 17.9% of the sample population had at least one segment with crowding, 18.2% had at least one segment with spacing while 33.6% had some degree of incisor malalignment and 54.2% of the sample population had some form of space anomaly. About 70% of the subjects had symmetric molar relationships of which 54.2% were Class I, 9.2% Class II and 3.2% Class III similar to the universal distributional pattern. Crossbites were not a major finding, and were present in only 7% of the sample. The distribution of overjet was relatively symmetrical on the left and right. Negative overjet (anterior open bite) was a rare occurrence in an average of 2.4% of the population. In 77.6% of the population, the overjet ranged from 1 to 4mm, and in 22.4%, the overjet was either edge-to-edge, reverse or 5mm and over. About 7.3% had an overjet of 5-6mm while only 2.1% had an overjet greater than 6mm. Approximately 53.7% of the population had an overbite of 1-3mm. Edge-to-edge and open bite incisor relationships were found in less than 10% of the sample. Although ideal occlusion as described by Angle (1907) in the Ugandan sample is very rare, using the data derived from this study, normal occlusion as defined by statistical distribution can be described.

Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis (IUPUI) / Quantification of treatment outcomes (tooth displacement and bony changes) is the key to advance orthodontic research and improve clinical practices. Traditionally, treatment outcome were quantified by using two-dimensional (2D) cephalometric analysis. However, there are problems inherent in 2D analysis, such as tracing errors and inability to detect side-effects. Thus, a reliable three-dimensional (3D) image analysis method for treatment outcome quantification is of high interest. Systematic 3D image analysis methods were developed for digital dental cast models and Cone-Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) models. A typical analysis procedure includes image reconstruction, landmarks identification, coordinate system setup, superimposition, and displacement or change calculation. The specified procedures for maxillary teeth displacements and anatomical landmarks movements were presented and validated. The validation results showed that these procedures were accurate and reliable enough for clinical applications. The 3D methods were first applied to a human canine retraction clinical study. The purposes of this study were to quantify canines and anchorage tooth movements, and to compare two commonly used canine retraction strategies, controlled tipping and translation. The canine results showed that (1) canine movements were linear with time; (2) the initial load system was not the only factor that controlled the canine movement pattern; and (3) control tipping was significantly faster than translation. The anchorage tooth results showed that (1) anchorage losses occurred even with transpalatal arch (TPA); (2) there was no significant difference in anchorage loss between the two treatment strategies; and (3) compared with removable TPA, fixed TPA appliance can significantly reduce the amount of anchorage loss in the mesial-distal direction. The second clinical application for the 3D methods was a mandibular growth clinical trial. The purposes of this study were to quantify skeletal landmark movements, and compare two widely used appliances, Herbst and MARA. The results showed that (1) the Herbst appliance caused mandibular forward movement with backward rotation; and (2) the treatment effects had no significant differences by using either Herbst or MARA appliances. The two clinical applications validated the methods developed in this study to quantify orthodontic treatment outcomes. They also demonstrated the benefits of using the 3D methods to quantify orthodontic treatment outcomes and to test fundamental hypotheses. These 3D methods can easily be extended to other clinical cases. This study will benefit orthodontic patients, clinicians and researchers.
