Abstract
OBJECTIVE: Condylar position may play a key role in the stability of orthodontic treatment of patients presenting with different skeletal patterns. The aim of the present study was to assess via cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) correlations between condylar position and sagittal skeletal relationship. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Condylar positions in CBCT images of 20 patients presenting with a Class I skeletal pattern, 20 with a Class II skeletal pattern, and 20 with a Class III skeletal pattern were evaluated retrospectively. The χ (2) test was used to assess the correlation between condylar position and sagittal skeletal relationships. RESULTS: The condyles were anteriorly positioned in patients with Class II skeletal pattern in comparison with those with Class I and III skeletal patterns. No significant differences in condylar position between Class I and Class III subjects were detected. CONCLUSION: A significant correlation between condylar position and sagittal skeletal patterns was observed in the present study. This relationship should be considered when planning and carrying out the appropriate orthodontic treatment for temporomandibular anomalies.
