Analysis of maxillary arch morphology and its relationship with upper airway in mouth breathing subjects with different sagittal growth patterns

This three-dimensional cone beam computed tomography(CBCT) study assessed pharyngeal airway and maxillary arch in mouth breathing subjects with different skeletal classifications and analyzed the factors associated with the upper airway morphological variations in mouth breathing (MB) and nasal brea...

Description
Summary:This three-dimensional cone beam computed tomography(CBCT) study assessed pharyngeal airway and maxillary arch in mouth breathing subjects with different skeletal classifications and analyzed the factors associated with the upper airway morphological variations in mouth breathing (MB) and nasal breathing (NB) subjects. One hundred and five subjects (52 MB and 53 NB children), divided into three skeletal groups: Class I (1° ≤ ANB° ≤ 5°), Class II (ANB° >5°), and Class III (ANB°
