Abstract
- ObjectivesMalocclusion features differ across various populations and ethnicities. At this time, no data are available regarding the dentofacial differences between Syrian and European adolescents with Class II division 1 malocclusion, which is one of the most frequently treated pathologies in orthodontic practice. The present combined cephalometric and tooth-size study aimed to compare the dentoskeletal and tooth-size characteristics of Syrian and Hungarian adolescents with Class II division 1 malocclusion.ResultsClass II division 1 malocclusion in Hungarian adolescents was a sagittal discrepancy, while in Syrian adolescents, it was a result of excessive vertical development. Syrian adolescents had a significantly excessive vertical development when compared with Hungarian adolescents, regardless of sex(p 0.01). Hungarian boys had significantly more protruded maxillae(p 0.001)and less retruded mandibles (p 0.01)when compared with Syrian boys, while Hungarian girls had significantly shorter mandibles relative to those of Syrian girls (p 0.01). Syrian girls had significantly more protrusive lower incisors (p 0.001), accompanied by significantly larger anterior tooth-size ratios when compared to Hungarian girls (p 0.001). In conclusion, these findings underscore the importance of considering ethnic differences during orthodontic diagnosis and may have implications for optimizing orthodontic treatments in Syrian and Hungarian adolescents with Class II division 1 malocclusion.
