Differences of Temporomandibular Joint Position in Angle Class I Malocclusion Type 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 before and after Fixed Appliances Orthodontic Treatment by using Cephalometric Radiograph
A concern in fixed appliances orthodontic treatment besides reestablishing the normal occlusion characteristics might causes repositioning of the condyle position in TMJ region. The aim of this research is to find out whether there is a difference of TMJ position in Angle class I malocclusion type 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 before and after fixed appliances orthodontic treatment. This research is a pre-and-post design study with analytical statistical approach which compared the TMJ position obtained from tracings 80 lateral cephalometric radiographs before and after fixed appliances orthodontic treatment.
Purposive sampling technique was used to determine the sample size in Orthodontic Department of RSGM from 2009-2015. The data was analyzed by using Kolmogorov-Smirnov Test and paired t-test. This study revealed that the differences of condyle position in Condylion to Vertical T line after orthodontic treatment is not significant (P > 0.05) for Angle class I malocclusion type 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5. However, the difference of condyle position in Condylion to TC line show a significant difference (P < 0.05) for all types of Angle class I malocclusion.
In conclusion, the distance of the condyle from Condylion to TC line increased after fixed appliances orthodontic treatment.
