The aim of this study was to evaluate sucking habits and hyperdivergency as risk factors for anterior open bite in mixed-dentition subjects.
Anamnestic and pretreatment cephalometric records of 1710 mixed-dentition subjects were assessed for sucking habits, dental open bite, and facial hyperdivergency.
The rate of anterior open bite was 17.7%. Multiple logistic regression showed that both prolonged sucking habits and hyperdivergent vertical relationships significantly increased the probability of an anterior dentoalveolar open bite, with a prevalence rate of 36.3%. This was 4 times the prevalence of sucking habits and facial hyperdivergency in subjects without anterior open bite (9.1%).
Prolonged sucking habits and hyperdivergent facial characteristics are significant risk factors for anterior open bite in the mixed dentition.
本研究的目的是评估吮指习惯和高角型作为混合牙列期患者前牙开(牙合)的危险因素。
对1710例混合牙列期患者的既往史和治疗前头颅侧位片记录进行评估,以确定吮指习惯、牙性开(牙合)和面部高角型。
前牙开(牙合)的发生率为17.7%。多因素逻辑回归分析显示,长期吮指习惯和垂直向高角关系均显著增加前牙牙槽性开(牙合)的发生概率,发生率为36.3%。这是无前牙开(牙合)患者中吮指习惯和面部高角型发生率(9.1%)的4倍。
长期吮指习惯和高角型面部特征是混合牙列期前牙开(牙合)的重要危险因素。
