Fractures of mandibular condyle may be overlooked because attention is often focused on readily apparent soft tissue injury such as lacerations and abrasions. Clinical and radiographic signs are often subtle, but the injuries caused by rapid deceleration and listed in Table 2 will serve to alert the
OBJECTIVE
This study evaluated the feasibility and morbidity of ultrasound endoscopic rapid maxillary expansion.
METHODS
Thirteen consecutive patients (7 women and 6 men; mean age at time of surgery, 22 yr 10 months; range, 15 yr 4 months to 26 yr 3 months) who required surgically assisted rapid
OBJECTIVE
Despite multiple fixation techniques, the optimal method of repairing mandibular angle fractures remains controversial.
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the outcomes when using a 3-dimensional, curved strut plate in repair of angle of the mandible fractures.
METHODS
Retrospective cohort
BACKGROUND
In this prospective clinical study, we used bilateral temporomandibular joint (TMJ) magnetic resonance images (MRIs) to investigate the condylar response to rapid maxillary expansion (RME).
METHODS
Bilaterial MRIs of the TMJs of 18 subjects (11 girls, 7 boys; mean age, 12.54 years; range,
This article aims to present the outcomes of treating anterior mandibular fractures using Herbert's screw. A total of 10 patients were treated for fractures of anterior mandible by open reduction and internal fixation using the Herbert screw. The patients were collected starting from June 2016 to
There have been considerable advances in the management of craniomaxillofacial injuries in children. Conservative approaches such as close observation, a liquid-to-soft diet, and analgesics can be used for the management of mandibular fractures without displacement and malocclusion. However,
Weaver syndrome is a rare condition characterized by accelerated growth, advanced osseous maturation, and distinct craniofacial features that can occur in both males and females. Etiology is unknown and no definitive oral characteristics have been established. The objective of this case report is to
BACKGROUND
As well as the chin is an important esthetic unit of the facial structure, it is also the region having a key role in the appearance of the face. Correction of cosmetic and functional deformities that may occur in this region because of serious hypoplasia (microgenia) is performed by chin
Any traumatic event that produces maxillofacial and/or mandibular fractures generally results in gross and usually severe patient disfigurement and often results in the patient's inability to eat and drink. These fractures are exceptionally rewarding cases as simple techniques may be performed
Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is caused primarily by obstruction of blood flow in the deep veins in the lower limbs. It is a form of thrombophlebitis and can be a major cause of morbidity and mortality in hospitalized patients. This report describes an unusual case of DVT in a 21-year-old woman with
OBJECTIVE
Three-dimensional (3D) stereophotogrammetry is a reliable, accurate, and noninvasive tool for measuring changes in soft tissue volume over time. The purpose of this prospective study was to quantify changes in postoperative swelling after orthognathic surgery using serial 3D
