To assess dental age and deviations of dental from chronological age according to the Willems and Cameriere methods (European formula) in patients with cleft lip and/or cleft palate (CL/P) and compare it with control group.
Retrospective cross-sectional study.
Clinic of Orthodontics.
Sixty-nine patients with CL/P between 6 and 15 years of age (55 with unilateral and 14 with bilateral CL/P) with 148 panoramic radiographs. The same number of radiographs was examined in the age-matched control group.
Estimation and comparison of dental age and differences of dental from chronological age in relation to the type of cleft, sex, and age in the group of patients with and without CL/P according to Willems and Cameriere method.
No significant intersex and intergroup differences were found in deviations of dental from chronological age according to Cameriere method ( > .05). Significant difference in deviation of dental from chronological age was found between the patients with and without CL/P according to Willems method ( < .001).
Cameriere European formula for dental age estimation, which is not influenced by sex and tooth morphology, showed similar dental development of children with and without CL/P. However, Willems method detected that deviation of dental from chronological age significantly differed between children with and without clefts.
根据 Willems 和 Cameriere 方法(欧洲公式)评估唇腭裂(CL/P)患者的牙龄和牙龄与实际年龄的偏差,并与对照组进行比较。
回顾性病例对照研究。
正畸科。
69 例年龄在 6 至 15 岁的 CL/P 患者(55 例单侧 CL/P,14 例双侧 CL/P),共 148 张全景片。在年龄匹配的对照组中也检查了相同数量的射线照片。
根据 Willems 和 Cameriere 方法,评估和比较 CL/P 患者和无 CL/P 患者组中牙龄和牙龄与实际年龄的差异,以及与裂隙类型、性别和年龄的关系。
根据 Cameriere 方法,牙龄与实际年龄的偏差在性别和牙形态方面无显著差异(>.05)。根据 Willems 方法,发现有和无 CL/P 的患者之间牙龄与实际年龄的偏差存在显著差异(<.001)。
Cameriere 欧洲公式用于牙龄估计,不受性别和牙齿形态的影响,表明有无 CL/P 的儿童牙齿发育相似。然而,Willems 方法检测到牙龄与实际年龄的偏差在有无裂隙的儿童之间存在显著差异。
