Description
Summary:Objective To perform a 3D cephalometric analysis of the craniofacial characteristics of patients with pycnodysostosis and compare this with a matched control group. Setting and Sample population This cross‐sectional descriptive study assessed eight CBCTs obtained in patients with pycnodysostosis (4 males, 4 females, mean age: 31.8 years). Materials and methods Eight Danish patients with pycnodysostosis were seen at the University's Orthodontic Clinic. All CBCTs were analysed using the Mimics 21.0 software (Materialise®, Belgium) and compared with a control group (6 males, 8 females, mean age: 33.6 years). Results Interclass correlation coefficient showed excellent intra‐rater reliability (> 0.93). All measurements in the 3D cephalometric analysis revealed statistical significance (P
