TY - JOUR AU - ZHANG, Liao AU - LIU, Ying PY - 2016 TI - A clinical research on the face type and double occlusal plane level change in Angle’s Class Ⅱ, division 2 patients before and after treatment JO - Journal of Prevention and Treatment for Stomatological Diseases SN - 2096-1456 SP - 411 EP - 415 VL - 24 IS - 7 AB - ObjectiveTo evaluate the change of the the face type and the cant of the occlusal plane of the patients with Angle Class Ⅱ, division 2 before and after orthodontic treatment, in order provide evidence for clinical treatment.MethodsIn 30 patients with Angle Class Ⅱ, division 2, 4 first premolars were extracted. They were treated with straight wire appliance. Pre-treatment and post-treatment lateral cephalograms of the patients were obtained and evaluated. Seven parameters including AOP-FH, POP-FH, OP-dif, MP-FH, N-Me, N-ANS, ANS-Me were selected and analyzed.ResultsThere were significant differences in AOP-FH, N-Me, POP-FH and ANS-Me (P<0.05), while there were no significant differences in other parameters.ConclusionAfter the straight wire appliance treatment for Angle Class Ⅱ division 2 patients, heights of 1/3 lower face increases, both anterior and posterior occlusal plane decreases, especially the anterior occlusal plane.
