BACKGROUND Facial prognathism may be because of prognathic maxilla, prognathic mandible or aggregate of both. Numerous studies performed to diagnose a single morphological feature commonly producing protrusive relationship, revealed that ‘a single morphological feature does not ordinarily produce a protrusive relationship. Existence of structural imbalance in one area also affects the nature of balance in other areas. A number of separate but inter-related cause and effect factors tend to augment each other in a cumulative and composite manner. Effect of marked discrepancy of an individual’s facial part could be cancelled or nullified by deviation of another part in opposite direction, ultimately resulting in good facial harmony. In this study by means of cephalometric roentgenography, the relation between Angle SNA and Angle NSAr was assessed in Vidharbhites, having normal occlusion, Class II division I and class III malocclusion. METHODS 40 individuals of normal occlusion, Class II division I and Class III Malocclusion, each between 16 and 25 years were analysed. These subjects were selected from patients reporting the outpatient department of Government Dental College, Nagpur. Statistically correlation between angles SNA and NSAr at level of significance 5 % was assessed. RESULTS After data collection a thorough observation & analysis was done and co-relation coefficient between SNA angle & NSAr (F--1.054 M--0.7981), also standard deviation of angular cephalometric measurement between males & females was found out in the population, leading to discussion on topic ‘Facial prognathism is due to maxillary prognathism, mandibular prognathism or combination of both’. In Females SNA was found to be 81 - 800 1.91310 and in males SNA was 82.1660 4. 380 respectively. CONCLUSIONS The results inferred that “Marked part of variation in Angle SNA can be explained by variation in Angle NSAr. KEY WORDS Angle SNA, Angle NSAr, Correlation

It is essential to know dental arch dimensions to provide accurate diagnosis and treatment planning to ensure the satisfactory outcome of orthodontic treatment. The aim of the present study was to measure and compare dental arch dimensions of a Kurdish sample in Erbil city with normal and different classes of malocclusion. Arch width and length were measured by an electronic digital caliper on a total of 150 orthodontic models of school students aged 16–20 years of different occlusal relationships (Class I normal occlusion, Class I, Class II division I, Class II Division II, and Class III malocclusions). The results showed that (1) girls have smaller arch parameters than boys; (2) Class II division II malocclusion showed a significantly smaller upper inter canine width, arch length, incisor molar distance, and incisor canine distance when compared to all other groups; (3) the upper inter premolar and inter molar width were significantly narrower in Class II division I malocclusion than of normal occlusions and Class III malocclusion and also narrower in Class I malocclusion than in normal occlusions for both arches; (4) the arch length was significantly longer in Class II division I when compared to Class II division II, Class I malocclusions (P < 0.01), Class III malocclusion and Class I normal occlusion (P < 0.05), and (5) no statistically significant differences were found in all the arch dimensions for Class III malocclusion when compared with the normal occlusion. In conclusion, girls had smaller arch dimension than boys and Class II Division II malocclusion showed smaller arch in all dimensions while Class II division I malocclusion revealed narrower arch width and longer arch length.

It is essential to know the tooth crown size to provide accurate diagnosis and treatment planning to ensure the satisfactory outcome of orthodontic treatment. The aim of the present study was to measure and compare mesiodistal crown diameter of a Kurdish sample in Erbil city with normal and different classes of malocclusion. The mesiodistal tooth width was measured by an electronic digital caliper on a total of 150 (75 males and 75 females) orthodontic models of secondary school students of different occlusal relationships (Class I normal occlusion, Class I, Class II division I, Class II division II, and Class III malocclusions). The results showed that (1) the maxillary right first molar was significantly larger than the left one and both maxillary right lateral incisors and first premolars were larger than their contralateral teeth at the level of P < 0.01. (2) Both upper and lower canine were significantly smaller in females than in males; (3) Class I malocclusion showed tendency toward larger teeth than the rest of the other occlusal categories; (4) no statistically significant differences in tooth size were found among the Class II division I, division II, and Class III malocclusions when compared to normal occlusion. In conclusion, females had smaller teeth than males and there was asymmetry between the right and left sides in tooth size and Class I malocclusion showed tendency toward larger teeth.

Aim: Aims of this study were to assess the pattern of malocclusion in Erbil City, Kurdistan region- Iraq. Methods: A retrospective study includes 1212 patients (589 males and 623 females) that attended orthodontic department at the khanzad polyclinic teaching center / Erbil city, Iraq, aged 11-17 years old with a mean age of 13.49 ±1.02 years that randomly selected. The normal occlusion, malocclusion, overjet, overbite, spacing, crowding, cross bite, midline shifting and midline diastema were examined. Results: Study demonstrated that 309 (25.5%) of patients had normal occlusion. Class I malocclusion was found in 655 (72.5%), class II was found in 176 (19.5%), and class III malocclusion 72 (8.0%) patients of all examined. Crowding and midline shifting were observed more frequently in females, however, normal bite and posterior open bite were observed more frequently in males and normal crossbite more frequently in both genders. Conclusion: Results of this study showed class I molar relationship was the most prevalent type of occlusion in Erbil City, Kurdistan Region-Iraq area and the most prevalent malocclusion was crowded.

Introduction: Malocclusion is a malrelationship between the arches in any of the planes or in which there are anomalies in tooth position beyond the normal limits. The epidemiological data has a key role in planning which varies among different countries, ethnic groups and age groups. Aims and objective: To find out the prevalence of malocclusion among medical students of IOM. Materials and method: Quantitative, cross-sectional descriptive study among MBBS students of Maharajgunj Medical Campus from first year to final year was done; participating voluntarily. A standard format was prepared to record the data. Result: Normal occlusion was found to be in 9.6%. The prevalence of Class I, Class II and Class III malocclusion were 44.09 %, 30.1 % and 16.12 % respectively. The various occlusal traits included increased overjet (12.9 %), increased overbite (26.9 %), scissor bite (3.2 %), posterior crossbite (18.3 %), spacing (12.9 %), Crowding (51.5 %), missing teeth (18.3 %). Conclusion: The prevalence of normal occlusion is 9.6% and malocclusion is found to be 90.4%. Class I malocclusion is most prevalent followed by Class II malocclusion and the Class III malocclusion.

Abstract Objective: To investigate the effects of different occlusion types on the mandibular asymmetry in young individuals. Materials and Methods: Mandibular asymmetry measurements were performed on the panoramic radiographs of 189 subjects (104 females and 85 males; age range, 11–15 years), with different occlusion patterns. The subjects were divided into five groups according to the occlusion types, namely, Angle Class I (Cl I), Class II division 1 (Cl II/1), Class II division 2 (Cl II/2), Class III (Cl III), and normal occlusions. The Kruskal-Wallis test was used to determine the possible statistically significant differences between the groups for condyle, ramus, and condyle-plus-ramus asymmetry index measurements. Identified differences between groups were further analyzed using the Mann-Whitney U-test at the 95% confidence interval (P &lt; .05). Results: There were no statistically significant differences between male and female subjects. The Kruskal-Wallis test showed that the occlusion type had a significant effect on the condylar asymmetry. In Cl II/1 cases, condylar asymmetry values were significantly different from the values of Cl II/2 and Cl III malocclusion and normal occlusion types. The normal occlusion control group was significantly different from those of Cl II/1 and the Cl I malocclusion groups. Conclusion: Cl II/1 malocclusion has a significant effect on the condylar asymmetry index when compared to Cl II/2 and Cl III malocclusion and normal occlusion types. However, the mean condylar asymmetry index value in Cl II/1 malocclusion was not different from Cl I malocclusion.

Introduction: Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a group of neurodevelopmental disorders diagnosed by impairments in social interaction and communication with repetitive and restrictive stereotyped behavioral patterns. The Prevalence of autism has been reported to be increased in recent years. This study aimed to assess the prevalence of different types of malocclusion among ASD patients in Isfahan in 2018. Materials & Methods: In a descriptive and cross-sectional trial, 92 ASD patients were studied in the age range of 7-18 years at the center for autism patients in Isfahan. Clinical oral examinations of patients are taken to assess the involved malocclusions (Cl I, Cl II and Cl III malocclusions) and malocclusion traits (deep bite, open bite and cross bite) by an educated dental student under the supervision of an orthodontist under natural light. The data are reported using frequency and percentage indices. Results: Class I malocclusion had the highest prevalence 54.3% (50) among ASD patients and the prevalence of class II and class III were found to be 19.6% (18) and 7.6% (7) respectively. The frequency of malocclusions traits of deep bite, cross bite and the open bite were 27.2% (25), 18.5% (17) and 7.6% (7) respectively. Among of the total patients, 65.2% (60) showed normal bite and 18/5% (17) showed Normal occlusion. Conclusion: ASD patients showed class I, class II and class III malocclusions from the most to least frequency and the most frequent malocclusion traits were also deep bite, cross bite and open bite respectively.
