The aim of the present study was to use cone-beam computed tomographic (CBCT) images to investigate the displacement and morphological changes of temporomandibular joints (TMJs) in patients received orthodontic treatment combined with orthognathic surgery. Methods: Both Class III (n = 34) and Class II (n = 17) patients were compared through overall and regional superimpositions of the initial and posttreatment CBCTs. Two-sample t-test was used to identify significance between group differences. Pearson's correlation coefficient was used to address changes of TMJ and the amount of setback or advancement. Results: The axial ramal angle increased significantly in Class III group and decreased in Class II groups after orthognathic surgery (p < FDR_p). For condylar dimensions, significant widths and lengths reductions were noted only in Class II group. However, no significant difference was found after comparing subgroup differences according to one-jaw and two-jaw options, nor any significant correlation found between the condylar changes and the amount of surgical movements. Conclusion: The nature of condylar susceptibility could result more from different skeletal patterns than the amount of surgical movements. However, the direction of mandibular surgery may contribute to different changes of condylar angle in axial section. |
