Abstract

Objective: The purpose of this prospective study was to evaluate the dentofacial effects of conventional and modified facemask therapies with rapid maxillary expansion, in a group of Class III patients; and compared with an untreated control group. Methods: The conventional facemask group (Group 1) comprised of 24 patients, 13 girls and 11 boys (mean age, $9.2{\pm}1.4$ years); the modified facemask treatment group (Group 2) comprised of 24 patients, 12 girls and 12 boys (mean age, $9.3{\pm}1.6$ years); and the control group (Group 3) comprised of 21 subjects, 11 girls and 10 boys (mean age, $9.8{\pm}1.9$ years). Treatment and control changes within the groups and the differences between the groups were analyzed statistically. Intra-group comparisons were evaluated using the non-parametric Wilcoxon's test and intergroup changes were analyzed using the Kruskal-Wallis test. The statistical significance of intergroup differences was further assessed with the Mann-Whitney test for independent samples and applying Bonferroni's correction (p < 0.016). Results: In group 1, SNB changes were less than the control. There were increases in SNA, ANB, SN-MP, A to N perp and Upper lip to E plane. In group 2, SNB, U1-NA (mm) U1-NA (${\circ}$) and Pog to N perp (mm) changes were less than the control. There were increases in SNA, ANB, SN-MP, A to N perp and Upper lip to E plane. Conclusions: Modified facemask appliance can be used effectively in Class III patients with a retrognathic maxilla. Facemask therapies with expansion resulted in an anterior advancement and translation of maxilla without rotation; and the mandible moved downward and backward ward in both treatment groups.

이번 연구의 목적은 기존의 페이스 마스크와 변형된 페이스 마스크의 치아 및 골격적 효과를 평가하고자 III급 부정교합환에서 치료군과 비치료군을 비교하였다. 24명의 환자(여자: 13명, 남자: 11)로 구성된 기존의 페이스 마스크 그룹(Group 1, mean age, $9.2{\pm}1.4$ years)과 24명의 환자(여자: 12명, 남자: 12명)로 구성된 변형된 페이스 마스크(Group 2, mean age, $9.3{\pm}1.6$ years); 그리고 21 명(여자: 11 명, 남자: 10명)으로 구성된 대조군 그룹(Group 3, mean age, $9.8{\pm}1.9$ years)으로 분류하였다. 그룹 내 그룹 간에 치료군과 대조군을 통계학적으로 분석하였다. 그룹 내 비교는 비모수적인 방법의 Wilcoxon's test으로 그룹 간의 변화는 Kruskal-Wallis test를 이용하여 분석하였다. 이후 그룹 간의 통계적인 유효성 검증을 위하여 Mann-Whitney test와 Bonferroni's correction 을 시행하였다 (p < 0.016). Group 1에서 SNB 변화가 대조군보다 적었다. SNA, ANB, SN-MP, A to N perp과 Upper lip to E plane이 증가하였다. Group 2에서는 SNB, U1-NA (mm) U1-NA ($^{\circ}$) and Pog to N perp (mm) 변화는 대조군보다 적었다. SNA, ANB, SN-MP, A to N perp과 Upper lip to E plane이 증가하였다. 변형된 페이스 마스크는 상악 열성장이 있는 III급 부정교합 환자에게 효과적으로 사용될 수 있다. 상악궁 확장을 동반한 페이스 마스크를 통하여 상악은 회전을 야기시키지 않고 전방으로 이동하였으며 모든 치료군에서 하악은 후하방으로 이동하였다.
