Purpose: The objective of the present article was to evaluate the ımpact of dental midline angulation in asymmetrical faces. Materials and methods: A full-portrait image was used to create a set of digitally modified images with a different degree of facial asymmetry, towards the right and the left side of the face respectively. Half of the images...

Objective: The objective of this study was to evaluate the influence of lip sucking on dentofacial development in a pair of 6.5-year-old monozygotic twins. Background: Lip sucking, which causes an imbalance in splanchnocraniums soft tissues pressures, can influence the hard tissues development, and contribute to orthodontic anomalies. Methods:...

Objective: This study was performed to investigate changes in dentofacial characteristics associated with mouth breathing (MB) and adenoidectomy. Background: MB is considered to be an etiological factor of malocclusion. Adenoidectomy is supposed to have the ability to prevent the development of dentofacial deformities. Methods: This retrospect...

Background/Aim: Root resorption is one of the most common consequences of orthodontic treatment. However, its mechanism, etiology factors, diagnostic methods and the possibility of root repair remain controversial topics. The aim of this paper is to provide an updated review of the current literature concerning the orthodontically induced root reso...

Amelogenesis imperfecta is a set of hereditary defects representing mainly the development defects of enamel without the presence of whole-body symptoms. Developmental disorders can manifest a complete absence of enamel, which is caused by improper differentiation of ameloblasts. This article describes the diagnosis and treatment of a patient with...

The etiology of headache is very diverse; with one of the reasons may be a defect in the function of masticatory muscles. Disharmony in the orofacial system is usually associated with presence of occlusal barrier which leads jaws to the forced position. The result is a change in tension of masseter muscles, their hyperactivity and consequently a si...

Introduction: Potential complications of acute pyelonephritis include irreversible changes on the kidneys - renal scars, which may result in secondary hypertension and subsequently to chronic kidney failure. In addition to physical examination of the patient, blood and urinary analysis, ultrasonography of the kidneys contributes to diagnosis. Objec...

Thumb sucking is one of the most common bad habits in childhood. Its prevalence varies between 10 and 34 % in developed countries. In case of long persistence, mainly during the mixed dentition period and high intensity, structures of developing splanchnocranium may be influenced. Thumb sucking is associated with higher prevalence of upper incisor...

In the patient's dental treatment is required cooperation between all branches of dentistry. Therefore it is important to construct a comprehensive treatment plan to achieve the best final effect. At its creation is often involved preservative dentist, prosthodontist, orthodontist, periodontist and surgeon. The need for interdisciplinary cooperatio...

Objectives: The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence and distribution by gender of upper midline diastema in Slovak population in different age. Materials and Methods: 1809 photos of frontal region were collected during an internet campaign realised to establish the standard of teeth hygiene. These photos were screened for upper midlin...

Mouth breathing is a common symptom accompanying diseases in childhood. If it is persisting chronically, it can influence the growth characteristics of developing splanchnocranium. It is associated with narrow maxilla on skeletal and dentoalveolar level and increased face height as a consequence of po-steriorotational growth pattern. In case of ear...

Slovakia belongs to the group of European countries with a low prevalence of HIV infection. The major proportion of HIV-positive cases in Slovakia is still represented by MSM, followed by heterosexuals infected through unprotected sexual intercourse. This study was conducted to update the description of HIV subtypes circulating in Slovakia. HIV-1 p...

Abstract The recent advancement in the technology brought a few important innovations into clinical dentistry with an impact on the diagnostics and treatment planning, in orthodontics. Many decades the plaster dental model was the only true 3D health record in orthodontics. Today with the possibilities of CBCT diagnostics opens a new perspective an...

To compare the manual and digital cephalometric analyses and to research a new procedure of analog cephalogram digitalization. 40 repeated measurements were used to evaluate the reproducibility and reliability of both methods. The analog x-ray was CHIRALUX2, the digital camera used was Canon PowerShot G5 and the digital tracing was done by Dolphin...

Authors evaluated the effect of the WEB 2.0 environment on dental education and estimated the difference in retention of knowledge by cephalometric analysis in orthodontics between conventional education and off-line e-learning. Five years of experience with complex web-based e-learning system allowed the evaluation by retrospective analysis and on...

The aim of the work was to determine the relation of enuresis to obstruction disorder of breathing during sleep in children. Adenotonsillar hypertrophy is the most frequent cause of obstruction disorders in sleep of children. Tonsillectomy (TE) and adenotomy (AT) have been performed at the ORL Clinic of Medical Faculty, Comenius University in 2003...
