Abstract

Background and Aim: This retrospective study of 41 patient records aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of two functional appliances in changing pharyngeal airway dimensions and compare these results with untreated patients. Material and Method: 15 patients were treated with Frankel 2 appliances (FR group) and 15 patients treated with Activator (AC group). The control group included 11 patients who did not receive orthodontic treatment. Cephalometric radiographs were performed pre- (T1) and post-treatment (T2). A paired sample t test or Mann Whitney U test was used for intra- group comparisons according to the distribution of the data. Analysis of variance with Tukey’s tests was used to compare the difference between the groups. A level of p< 0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results: In the FR group, statistically significant differences were found between the T1 and T2 radiographs in the superior pharyngeal airway space (SPAS), inferior pharyngeal airway space-2 (GoB-IAS), and vertical airway length (VAL) measurements. In the AC group, only inferior pharyngeal airway space (IPAS) measurements showed a statistically significant difference between the T1 and T2 radiographs. In the control group, VAL measurement was statistically significantly different between the T1 and T2 radiographs. Conclusion: Although the FR group showed positive changes in pharyngeal airway dimensions, no significant difference was found in the intergroup comparison of pharyngeal measurements

Özet

Amaç: 41 hastanın kayıtlarını içeren bu retrospektif çalışma iki farklı fonksiyonel apareyin faringeal havayolu boyutlarında meydana getirdiği değişiklikleri değerlendirmeyi ve bu sonuçların tedavi edilmeyen hastalar ile karşılaştırılmasını amaçlamaktadır. Gereç ve Yöntem: 15 hasta Frankel 2 apareyi (FR grup), 15 hasta da Aktivatör (AC grup) ile tedavi edildi. Kontrol grubunu ise ortodontik tedavi görmeyen 11 hasta oluşturdu. Tedavi öncesi (T1) ve tedavi sonrası (T2) sefalometrik radyograflar kullanıldı. Grup içi karşılaştırmalar için verilerin dağılımına göre eşleştirilmiş t testi ve Mann Whitney U testi kullanıldı. Gruplar arası karşılaştırma için Tukey testi kullanıldı. p< 0.05 istatistiksel olarak anlamlı kabul edildi. Bulgular: FR grubunda üst faringeal havayolu boşluğu (SPAS), alt faringeal havayolu boşluğu-2 (GoB-IAS) ve vertikal havayolu uzunluğu (VAL) ölçümlerinde T1 ve T2 arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı farklılık vardı. AC grubunda sadece alt faringeal havayolu boşluğu (IPAS) ölçümünde istatistiksel olarak anlamlı farklılık vardı. Kontrol grubunda ise VAL istatistiksel olarak anlamlı farklılık gösterdi. Sonuç: FR grubu, faringeal hava yolu boyutlarında olumlu değişiklikler göstermesine rağmen, faringeal ölçümlerin gruplar arası karşılaştırmasında anlamlı bir farklılık bulunmadı
