The Cervical Vertebral Maturation (CVM) Method for the Assessment of Optimal Treatment Timing in Dentofacial Orthopedics
TLDR
A further modified version of the Cervical Vertebral Maturation (CVM) method is introduced, based on the analysis of the second through fourth cervical vertebrae in a single cephalogram, to identify optimal timing for the treatment of a series of dentoskeletal disharmonies in all three planes of space.About:

Journal ArticleDOI
Midpalatal suture maturation: Classification method for individual assessment before rapid maxillary expansion
Fernanda Angelieri,Lucia H.S. Cevidanes,Lorenzo Franchi,João Roberto Gonçalves,Erika Benavides,James A. McNamara +5 more
TL;DR: A novel classification method for individual assessment of midpalatal suture morphology has the potential to avoid the side effects of rapid maxillary expansion failure or unnecessary surgically assisted rapidmaxillary expansion for late adolescents and young adults.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dentofacial effects of bone-anchored maxillary protraction: A controlled study of consecutively treated Class III patients
TL;DR: Compared with growth of the untreated Class III subjects, the BAMP protocol induced an average increment on skeletal and soft-tissue advancement of maxillary structures of about 4 mm, and favorable mandibular changes exceeded 2 mm.
Journal ArticleDOI
Comparison of two protocols for maxillary protraction: bone anchors versus face mask with rapid maxillary expansion
TL;DR: The BAMP protocol produced significantly larger maxillary advancement than the RME/FM therapy and the lack of clockwise rotation of the mandible as well as a lack of retroclination of the lower incisors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Longitudinal growth changes in untreated subjects with Class II Division 1 malocclusion.
TL;DR: Craniofacial growth in subjects with untreated Class II malocclusion is essentially similar to that in untreated subjects with normal occlusion at all developmental intervals, with the exception of significantly smaller increases in mandibular length.

Immediate effects of rapid maxillary expansion with Haas-type and hyrax-type expanders: a randomized clinical trial.
André Weissheimer,Luciane Macedo de Menezes,Maurício Mezomo,Daniela Dias,Eduardo Martinelli Santayana de Lima,Susana Maria Deon Rizzatto +5 more
TL;DR: Both appliances were efficient in correcting a transverse maxillary deficiency by using cone-beam computed tomography and the mixed analysis of variance (ANOVA) model and the Tukey-Kramer method.

Growth at Adolescence
TL;DR: This book is the expansion of a prize essay on the subject of obesity in childhood, with special reference to Hilde Bruch's theory on the causation of this condition, and is a useful summary of the statistical facts regarding obesity.

Multilevel mixed linear model analysis using iterative generalized least squares
TL;DR: In this paper, an iterative generalized least squares estimation procedure is given and shown to be equivalent to maximum likelihood in the normal case, and applications to complex surveys, longitudinal data, and estimation in multivariate models with missing responses are discussed.

Skeletal maturation evaluation using cervical vertebrae
Brent Hassel,Allan G. Farman +1 more
TL;DR: By using the lateral profiles of the second, third and fourth cervical vertebrae, it was possible to develop a reliable ranking of patients according to the potential for future adolescent growth potential.
