OBJECTIVE
The aim of this investigation was to analyze the effects of RME and FM on the airway dimensions in Class III patients compared with untreated controls.
METHODS
A sample of 47 Class III patients treated with RME and FM was analyzed. The treated group was compared with 18 untreated controls. Lateral cephalograms for each patient at T1, T2, and T3 were digitized.
RESULTS
At long-term evaluation a significant increase in airway size and a significant decrease in adenoid size were found in the treated group as well as an improvement in the pharynx dimension. During active treatment the treated group showed a significant improvement in lower airway size and in lower pharynx dimension. A significant decrease in adenoid size was also found.
CONCLUSION
The treatment with RME and FM produced favorable stable changes in the airway dimensions in Class III subjects when compared with untreated controls.
目的
本研究旨在分析与未经治疗的对照组相比，快速上颌扩弓（RME）和功能矫治（FM）对Ⅲ类错颌患者气道尺寸的影响。
方法
分析了47例接受RME和FM治疗的Ⅲ类错颌患者样本。将治疗组与18例未经治疗的对照组进行比较。对每位患者在T1、T2和T3时的头颅侧位片进行数字化处理。
结果
长期评估发现，治疗组气道尺寸显著增加，腺样体尺寸显著减小，咽腔尺寸也有所改善。在积极治疗期间，治疗组下气道尺寸和下咽腔尺寸显著改善。腺样体尺寸也显著减小。
结论
与未经治疗的对照组相比，RME和FM治疗使Ⅲ类错颌患者气道尺寸产生了有利的稳定变化。
