This study is aimed at establishing the norms for Beta angle and Yen angle in Maratha population and to evaluate their reliability in sagittal malocclusions from amongst select local population. Materials and Method: A total of 120 samples were divided into three categories. 60 samples of Class I normal occlusion (30 males and 30 females) were used to establish the norms. 60 samples with skeletal Class II and Class III relation were used for checking the reliability of the established norms. Lateral cephalogram of all the samples was procured and tracings were done to calculate ANB Angle, Wits appraisal, McNamara differential, Beta angle and Yen angle. Oneway ANOVA was done to determine the means of Beta and YEN angle in Maratha population. Results: The Maratha population norms for Beta angle is 31.50 +/- 2.70 and for YEN angle is 122.20 ...

So this study aims to evaluate the condylar cartilage thickness by using MRI and USG in patients undergoing myofunctional appliance therapy for mandibular advancement with the null hypothesis being that there are no changes seen in the thickness of condylar cartilage in growing children. Materials and methods A prospective evaluation of samples having skeletal Class-II malocclusion ranging between cervical vertebral maturation index (CVMI) stage II and III, requiring twin block functional therapy was performed. Ten patients were selected randomly who underwent MRI and USG in the open and close positions for the evaluation of condylar cartilage thickness and the dimensional changes in the width of the right and left condyle in mm at T0 and T1. Result There was no statistically significant difference between the values interpreted by MRI or USG imaging when compared at T0 and T1 and in the open and closed mouth on the left and right sides. At T0, the mean thickness noted was 0.49 mm and 0.48 mm during opening and closing on the left side and 0.52 mm in both positions on the right side. At T1, the mean thickness noted was 0.8 and 0.79mm during opening and closing on the left side, whereas it was 0.81 mm in both positions on the right side. Conclusion The condylar cartilage thickness increases significantly after twin block therapy suggestive of mandibular growth in skeletal class II malocclusion. It can be inferred that both MRI and USG carry equal diagnostic interpretation, as there was no statistically significant difference between the two imaging modalities.

However, temporary anchorage devices (TADs) are currently gaining popularity and most studies have focused on anchorage loss, treatment duration, mini-implant success and failure rates, pain, discomfort and root resorption. Few studies have focused on the clinical effectiveness of implants for the intrusion and retraction of anterior teeth. Objectives To assess the clinical use of orthodontic mini-implants for the intrusion and retraction of anterior teeth. Methods A systematic review of articles selected from PUBMED and Google Scholar was carried out to determine the clinical use of orthodontic mini-implants for anterior tooth intrusion and retraction. Additional studies were hand searched to identify and include clinical trials, prospective and retrospective studies, while excluding finite element method (FEM) studies and case reports. A total...

Proteins homologous to the N-terminal domain of LonA peptidase, but lacking its other domains, are conserved in several phyla of prokaryotes, including the Xanthomonadales order. However, the function of these homologous proteins (LonNTD-like proteins) is not known. Here, the crystal structure of the LonNTD-like protein from Xanthomonas campestris (XCC3289; UniProt Q8P5P7) is reported at 2.8 Å resolution. The structure was solved by molecular replacement and contains one polypeptide in the asymmetric unit. The structure was refined to an R free of 29%. The structure of XCC3289 consists of two domains joined by a long loop. The N-terminal domain (residues 1–112) consists of an α-helix surrounded by β-sheets, whereas the C-terminal domain (residues 123–193) is an α-helical bundle. The fold and spatial orientation of the two domains closely resembles those ...

If present, they might follow ectopic eruption path and become impacted. Because it is the last tooth erupt in the arch, and usually there is no space in the arch. Effects of orthodontic treatment may also affect the position of third molar after treatment and may changes the eruption pattern of third molar. Materials and Methods: 30 patient's pre-treatment and post-treatment lateral cephalogram and orthopantomogram (OPG) were taken out of which 15 patients were treated with first pre-molar extraction, and 15 patients were treated with non-extraction approach. Cephalomatric and OPG tracing were done at T1 (pre-treatment) and T2 (post-treatment). Distance from Xi-point to distal surface of second molar, distance from anterior border of ramus to the distal surface of second molar, angulation of third molar in relation with second molar and mesio-distal width of third molar were checked. Descriptive analysis was perform for both the groups and paired t-test and un-paired t-test were performed for first pre-molar extraction and nonextraction group with two different methods such as panoramic radiograph (OPG) and lateral cephalograms at significant level P < 0.05. Results: In extraction group, there were more possibility of the eruption, more mesial movement and more angulation changes noted compare to non-extraction group. Conclusion: Panoramic radiographs were more accurate when compared to lateral cephalogram while checking minor changes.

A mathematical model is also presented to individualize the nature of arch form. Materials and methods: Full mouth dental cast of 60 patients between ages 18 and 25 years were obtained belonging to Maharashtra and traced back to two generations. The different formulae were used to determine the premolar and molar indices of the maxillary arch width by using the sum of incisal widths of maxilla or mandible. Mathematical model was determined using fourth order polynomial. Results: Mean and standard deviation of premolar arch width and molar arch width for male is 37.59 ± 1.76 and 48.15 ± 2.16 and for females, it is 35.61 ± 1.66 and 46.12 ± 2.06 respectively. The premolar and molar indices derived from sum of maxillary incisors (SI max) are 80.29 ± 5.39 and 62.66 ± 4.0 for males and 82.33 ± 4.02 and 63.6 ± 3.62 for females respectively. The polynomial indicated that the arches were symmetrical. The arch dimensions showed variations in males and females. Conclusion: Significant correlation was found between the sum of maxillary incisors and interpremolar width but not with the intermolar width while sum of mandibular incisors showed significant correlation with the interpremolar and intermolar arch width. There is no single arch form unique to any of the ethnic groups. A new formula is proposed to determine the premolar and molar index.

We report a case of 62-year-old female of spinal muscular atrophy presenting with bilateral vocal fold paralysis, her diagnosis and management. Objective Case report of a case of spinal muscular atrophy presenting with bilateral vocal fold paralysis. Conclusion Spinomuscular atrophy though rarely associated with laryngeal symptoms should be kept in mind as a possible etiology of bilateral vocal fold paralysis. The surgical decision and the postoperative sequeale will be affected due to the presence of this disease and thus a high index of suspicion is required.

As these norms show a great degree of variation when applied to different populations, it becomes necessary to establish the norms for every ethnic group. The present study was designed to derive norms for the Maratha ethnic population, which would be comparable in diagnosis and treatment planning, to the Steiner, Tweed, Ricketts and McNamara cephalometric analysis. Materials and Methods: The sample consisted of 60 adult subjects (30 males and 30 females) of Maratha ethnic origin. The age ranged between 18 and 26 years. The cephalograms of the subjects were subjected to Steiner, Tweed, Ricketts and McNamara cephalometric analysis and were complemented by a few additional readings. Result: The cephalometric norms for Steiner, Tweed, Ricketts and McNamara cephalometric analysis of the Maratha population differed significantly from the Caucasian population. Comparison of our sample with the other ethnic group reaffirmed the need to develop separate standards for different populations. Conclusion: Therefore, it is legitimate and important for those undertaking orthodontic treatment for patients of Maratha ethnicity to use cephalometric norms for Maratha ethnic population.
