Evaluation of incisor position and alveolar bone relationship in untreated skeletal Class II malocclusion with different growth patterns
Year: 2025
Type: article
Study design: Observational Study
Abstract: The position and inclination of central incisors significantly affect treatment planning for anterior- posterior tooth movements. Hence, we analyzed 90 lateral cephalograms of untreated Class II malocclusion cases with different growth patterns. Data shows that maxillary incisors tend to occupy the anterior one-third of the alveolus in horizontal growth pattern, while mandibular incisor roots are more inclined and positioned lingually in those with a vertical growth pattern.
