    Comparison of skeletal and dental effects of two different tooth-tissue-borne types of rapid maxillary expansion appliances: A CBCT retrospective study
    (Wiley, 2023) Karaman, Ahmet; Danisman, Hikmetnur; Genc, Esra; Buyuk, S. Kutalmia
    Objectives To compare the skeletal and dental effects of different types of rapid maxillary expansion (RME) appliances using cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT). Materials/Methods This multi-centre study was conducted with a total of 56 patients. The sample consisted of two groups including the McNamara-Type RME (MNR) group with 30 patients (16 females, 14 males, mean age: 13.38 +/- 1.16 years) and Full-Coverage RME (FCR) group with 26 patients (10 females, 16 males, mean age:13.78 +/- 1.06 years). Twenty-one parameters were measured on CBCT images including 4 maxillary skeletal, 12 maxillary alveolar, and 5 maxillary dental measurements, and the data were analysed using the SPSS 20.0 software. Results The rates of increase in the palatal maxillary width (PMW) (3), PMW(4), and PMW(6) were significantly higher in the MNR group (P < .05). While the rates of increase in the buccal maxillary width (BMW) (3) and BMW(4) were statistically higher in the MNR group, the rate of increase in BMW (6) was higher in the FCR group (P < .05). The increases in HPW (4), HPW (6), PAA4(degrees), and PAA6(degrees), which are parameters about hard palate width (HPW) and palatal alveolar angle (PAA), were also significantly higher in the MNR group (P < .05). The increases in PAW (4) and PAW (6), referring to the widths between the palatal root apices were significantly higher in the MNR group (P < .05).The increase in Slope-6(degrees) was also higher in the MNR group (P < .05). Conclusion Expansion in the palatal region on the alveolar level was higher in MNR than in FCR, while expansion in FCR was the highest in the posterior. In both appliances, there was tipping in the buccal direction in both alveolar bone and teeth, and the rate of this tipping was higher in MNR.

    Evaluation of temporomandibular disorder and oral health-related quality of life in adolescents with parents’ divorce applying to the orthodontic clinic
    (AVES, 2022) Karaman, Ahmet; Genç, Esra; Danişman, Hikmetnur
    Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of parents’ divorce on temporomandibular disorders (TMDs) and quality of life in adolescents. Methods: The study was conducted with 200 patients (124 female, 76 male), 98 of whom had married parents, and 102 of whom had divorced parents. The mean age of the patients was 16.17 ± 1.42 years. The study was a questionnaire study, and Fonseca Questionnaire and Oral Health Impact Profile-14 (OHIP-14) forms were used. Results: It was found that patients whose parents were divorced had higher mean Fonseca TMD and OHIP-14 scores than patients whose parents were married. There is no statistically significant difference between the Fonseca and OHIP-14 scores of females and males whose parents were divorced and married. Conclusion: The adolescents whose parents were divorced had statistically significantly higher means of the Fonseca TMD and OHIP-14 scores than those with married parents, and these adolescents had a higher rate of having moderate Fonseca TMD. © 2022, AVES.
