Cephalometry study of hyoid bone in children aged 11 mouthbreathing (second part)
Keywords:
Hyoid bone, cephalometry, higher airwaysAbstract
A correlation between the behavior of hyoid bone location and the maxilla and themandible growth, the cérvico-basio-hyoid angles and the lower posterior aerial space from the cephalometry point of view in a group of patients mouth-breathing.
The medical records from 60 patients aged 11 seen in the Orthodontics consultation
from the health area of Stomatology Faculty were reviewed. We used matrix of
Pearson's linear correlation to assess the hyoid bone location regarding such
variables; noting a bone drop and significant relations with above variables
reflecting the maxillary and mandibular growth, the spinal column position (cervical
segment) and the head; as well ass the posterior aerial space of the pharynx with a
5 % significance level.
