Three-dimensional evaluation of changes in upper airway volume in growing skeletal Class II patients following mandibular advancement treatment with functional orthopedic appliances

Objectives: The aim of this study was to assess three-dimensionally the upper airway changes following functional appliance treatment in growing Class II patients. Materials and Methods: Pre-and post-treatment Cone beam computed tomography scans of 20 patients (age range: 9 to 12; mean: 11.4 6 1.0 y...
