Abstract

Preadolescent children with deficient maxillae are suitable candidates for the maxillary protraction appliance(MPA). The theoretical effect of the MPA is protraction or anterior displacement of the maxilla. However, it is known that complex effects such as anterior displacement of the maxillary teeth, downward and backward rotation of the mandible, linguoversion of the mandibular anterior incisors, are known to play a role in improving the Cl III malocclusion. There have been much studies with regard to maxillary protraction, but the different effects of MPAs depending on the vertical facial pattern are not known precisely. This study was based on 67 patients (31 males, 36 females) aged from 6 years 6 months to 13 years 3months, who visited the Dept. of Orthodontics at Yonsei Univ., Dental Hospital and diagnosed as skeletal Class III with maxillary deficiency. They were divided into 3 groups (low, average, high angle groups) depending on genial angle and the SNMP (Go-Gn) angle, respectively. Pretreatment and post-treatment lateral cephalograms were used to compare the effects of MPA and the following conclusions were obtained: 1) A significantly large amount of backward movement of the B point was observed in patients with a low SNMP angle. Those with a high SNMP angle had significant forward movement at A point. 2) The patients with low genial angle had the least forward movement at the A point, and those with a high angle had more forward movement. 3) In comparing the arcTan of the A point, the high angle group showed more horizontal movement while the low angle group showed more vertical movement. 4) There was no significance between the treatment duration of the SNMP and the Genial angle groups.

성장기 아동에서 상악골 열성장을 보이는 제III급 부정교합은 상악골 전방 견인 장치의 적응증이 된다. 상악골 전방 견인장치의 바람직한 효과는 상악골의 전방 이동이지만, 실제로는 상악 치아의 전방 이동, 하악골의 후하방 회전, 하악 전치의 설측 이동 등의 복합적인 결과로 III급 관계가 개선된다고 알려져 있다. 그러나 수직적 안모 유형별로는 상악골 전방 견인 장치의 효과에 대한 차이는 잘 알려진 바가 없다 본 연구는 1998년-2000년 사이에 연세대학교 치과병원 교정과에 내원한 환자들 중 초진시 나이는 6세 6개월에서 13세 3개월 사이의 상악골 열성장을 동반한 제 III급 부정교합으로 진단된 67명 (남 36, 여 31)을 대상으로, 안모유형별로 SNMP군과 Gonial angle군에서 low, average, high로 세부군을 나누어 치료전 측모 두부방사선 규격사진을 통해 상악골 전방견인 장치의 효과를 비교하여 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 1) SNMP군의 low angle에서 B point의 후방이동량이 많았으며, High angle에서는 A point의 전방이동량이 컸다. 2) Genial angle군의 low angle에서 A point의 전방이동양이 가장 적었으며, high angle에서는 A point의 전방이동량이 상대적으로 많았다. 3) A point에 대한 arcTan를 구한 결과 A point의 이동 각도는 장안모 군에서 더 수평적인 이동 양상을 보였고, 단안모 군에서는 수직적 이동양상이 강했다. 4) SNMP군과 Gonial angle의 세부군에서 치료기간별 유의성은 없었다.
