Türk toplumunda farklı dik yön büyüme paternine sahip iskeletsel Sınıf 1 bireylerde farengeal havayolunun ve hyoid kemik pozisyonunun değerlendirilmesi

Amaç: Bu araştırmada, iskeletsel Sınıf 1 ilişkiye sahip bireylerde dik yön büyüme paterninin farengeal havayolu boyutlarına ve hyoid kemik pozisyonuna etkisinin değerlendirilmesi amaçlanmıştır. Gereç ve Yöntem: Bu retrospektif araştırmaya, ANB açısı temel alınarak iskeletsel Sınıf 1 ilişkiye sahip toplam 72 birey (36 kadın, 36 erkek; ortalama yaş: 17.78 ± 1.39 yıl) dahil edildi. Bireyler dik yön büyüme paternine göre; normodiverjan, hipodiverjan ve hiperdiverjan olmak üzere 3 gruba ayrıldı. Lateral sefalometrik radyografiler üzerinde farengeal havayolu ve hyoid kemik pozisyonu ölçümleri, 1 açısal ve 10 lineer ölçüm kullanılarak yapıldı. Verilerin analizinde bağımsız örneklem t-testi ve tek yönlü varyans analizi (ANOVA) kullanılarak grup içi ve gruplar arası farklılıklar değerlendirildi (p<0.05). Bulgular: Verilerin grup içi karşılaştırmalarında farengeal havayolu boyutlarına ait ölçümlerin cinsiyetler arasında benzer olduğu (p˃0.05) ve tüm gruplarda hyoid kemiğin servikal vertebralara ve mandibular düzleme olan uzaklıklarının kızlarda anlamlı düzeyde daha az olduğu görüldü (p<0.05). Normodiverjan, hipodiverjan ve hiperdiverjan bireylerin farengeal havayolu boyutları ve hyoid kemik pozisyonunda istatistiksel olarak anlamlı farklılıklar olmadığı belirlendi. Sonuç: Normodiverjan, hipodiverjan ve hiperdiverjan bireylerde farengeal havayolu boyutlarının ve hyoid kemik pozisyonlarının benzer olduğu görüldü. Bununla birlikte, tüm gruplarda erkeklerde hyoid kemiğinin kızlara göre daha aşağıda ve daha önde pozisyonlandığı belirlendi.

Evaluation of pharyngeal airway and hyoid bone position in skeletal Class 1 individuals with different vertical growth patterns in Turkish population

Objective: In this study, it was aimed to evaluate the effect of vertical growth pattern on pharyngeal airway dimensions and hyoid bone position in individuals with skeletal Class 1 relationship. Materials and Method: A total of 72 individuals (36 female, 36 male, mean age: 17.78 ± 1.39 years) with skeletal Class I relationship based on ANB angle were included in this retrospective study. Subjects were divided into 3 groups as normodivergent, hypodivergent and hyperdivergent according to the vertical growth pattern evaluation. Pharyngeal airway and hyoid bone position measurements were made using 1 angular and 10 linear measurements on lateral cephalometric radiographs. Intragroup and intergroup differences were evaluated using independent samples t-test and one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) (p<0.05). Results: According to the intragroup comparisons of the data, it was observed that the measurements of the pharyngeal airway dimensions were similar between the genders (p˃0.05) and the distance of the hyoid bone to the cervical vertebrae and the mandibular plane in all groups was significantly less in females (p<0.05). In the comparison between groups of individuals with different vertical growth patterns, it was determined that there were no statistically significant differences in pharyngeal airway dimensions and hyoid bone positions of normodivergent, hypodivergent, and hyperdivergent subjects. Conclusion: It was observed that pharyngeal airway dimensions and hyoid bone positions were similar in normodivergent, hypodivergent, and hyperdivergent subjects. However, it was determined that the hyoid bone of males was positioned lower and more anteriorly than females in all groups.
