[PMID: 38438541 PMCID: PMC10912775 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-024-55840-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/24/2023] [Accepted: 02/28/2024] [Indexed: 03/06/2024] Open
Abstract
The association between craniocervical posture and craniofacial structures in the various sagittal skeletal malocclusion during different growth stages has been the focus of intense interest in fields of orthodontics, but it has not been conclusively demonstrated. Thus, this study aimed to investigate the association between craniofacial morphology and craniocervical posture in patients with sagittal skeletal malocclusion during different growth periods. A total of 150 from a large pool of cephalograms qualified for the inclusion and exclusion were evaluated and classified into three groups according to the Cervical Vertebral Maturation (CVM) by examining the morphological modifications of the second through fourth cervical vertebrae, each group consisted of 50 cephalograms. In each growth period, for the comparison of head and cervical posture differences among various skeletal classes, the radiographs were further subdivided into skeletal Class I (0° < ANB < 5°, n = 16), skeletal Class II (ANB ≥ 5°, n = 18), and skeletal Class III (0° ≤ ANB, n = 16) on the basis of their ANB angle. There was no significant difference in gender (P > 0.05). Some variables were found to be significant during pubertal growth and later in patients with sagittal skeletal malocclusion (P < 0.05). Most indicators describing craniocervical posture were largest in skeletal Class II and smallest in skeletal Class III during the peak growth periods and later. Cervical inclination variables were greater in skeletal Class III than in skeletal Class II. Variables of craniofacial morphology and craniocervical posture are more correlated during the pubertal growth period and later in patients with sagittal skeletal malocclusion. A tendency is an indication of the close interrelationship that a more extended head was in skeletal Class II while a flexed head was in skeletal Class III. Nevertheless, with the considerations of some limitations involved in this study, further longitudinal studies with large samples are required to elucidate the relationship clearly.

The effectiveness of different types of acupuncture to reduce symptoms and disability for patients with orofacial pain. A systematic review and meta-analysis. Disabil Rehabil 2024:1-17.

Abstract
PURPOSE To determine the effectiveness of different types of acupuncture in reducing pain, improving maximum mouth opening and jaw functions in adults with orofacial pain. METHODS Six databases were searched until 15 June 2023. The Cochrane risk of bias tool and GRADE were employed to evaluate bias and overall evidence certainty. RESULTS Among 52 studies, 86.5% (n = 45) exhibited high risk of bias. Common acupoints, including Hegu LI 4, Jiache ST 6, and Xiaguan ST 7, were used primarily for patients with temporomandibular disorder [TMDs]. Meta-analyses indicated that acupuncture significantly reduced pain intensity in individuals with myogenous TMD (MD = 26.02 mm, I2=89%, p = 0.05), reduced tenderness in the medial pterygoid muscle (standardised mean differences [SMD] = 1.72, I2 = 0%, p < 0.00001) and jaw dysfunction (SMD = 1.62, I2 = 88%, p = 0.010) in mixed TMD when compared to sham/no treatment. However, the overall certainty of the evidence was very low for all outcomes as evaluated by GRADE. CONCLUSION The overall results in this review should be interpreted with caution as there was a high risk of bias across the majority of randomized controlled trial (RCTs), and the overall certainty of the evidence was very low. Therefore, future studies with high-quality RCTs are warranted evaluating the use of acupuncture in patients with orofacial pain.

Abstract
Changes in craniocervical posture are a critical issue in modern society. Alterations of the mandible position in the anterior-posterior direction in association with head and neck posture are reported. The objective of the present review was to evaluate the relationship between craniocervical posture and sagittal position of the mandible and to evaluate the risk of bias inthe included studies. Electronic databases used to perform the search were PubMed, Wiley Online Library, and Cochrane. Only clinical trials that assessed sagittal craniocervical posture and mandible position in lateral cephalograms were included. Selected inclusion criteria were used to assess the finally selected studies. The upper and lower cervical spine was evaluated by seven and six studies, respectively. The risk of bias in the included studies varied from low to moderate. Literature research identified 438 records from 3 databases. Eventually, seven eligible clinical trials were included in this review. Evaluating the relationship between craniocervical posture and mandible position in the sagittal plane, it can be concluded that increased cervical inclination and head upright position are associated with the posterior position of the mandible. Attention to patients’ craniocervical posture should be paid as a part of clinical evaluation since it might be the reason for the changed mandible position.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of the study was to determine changes in the oral mucosa in patients with bruxism using the method of autofluorescence stomatoscopy. MATERIAL AND METHODS 50 patients with bruxism aged 35-65 years were examined at the Department of Prosthetic Dentistry, Faculty of Dental Medicine, Medical University - Sofia, Bulgaria. Using the digital diagnostic system OccluSense (Bausch, Germany), deviations in static and dynamic occlusion were determined. For the diagnosis of precancerous diseases and early stages of malignant neoplasms of the oral mucosa, we used the method of autofluorescent stomatoscopy using a LED stomatoscope «AFS» made in Russia with radiation in the spectral range of 400 nm. RESULTS The normal mucous membrane of the mouth at this frequency of the spectrum has a green glow. Metabolic and/or structural changes occurring at the cellular and/or tissue level of the oral mucosa lead to a change in its optical properties.Analysis of occlusion in 50 patients with bruxism showed uneven distribution of the chewing load. In 60% of patients, the presence of supercontacts was revealed, and in 76% of cases, occlusion disorders were detected, in 88% of patients, hyperkeratosis of the buccal mucosa was noted, and in 77.3% they were localized along the line of closing of the teeth. CONCLUSION Examination of the oral mucosa using the autofluorescent stomatoscopy method allows visualizing and, accordingly, objectifying the presence of hyperkeratotic changes in the buccal mucosa in patients with bruxism. The APS apparatus allows for a reliable and effective assessment of non-inflammatory and inflammatory changes, precancerous and cancerous lesions, which makes it indispensable for the manifestation of oncological alertness in the daily clinical practice of dentists.

Abstract
RESUMO O objetivo deste estudo foi identificar se existe correlação entre a severidade da disfunção temporomandibular (DTM) e postura corporal, bem como evidenciar as diferenças existentes na postura corporal nos diferentes graus de severidade. Foram avaliadas 71 mulheres de 18 a 35 anos quanto à severidade da DTM e à postura corporal, sendo divididas em grupo sem DTM e grupo com DTM. Foram utilizados o questionário Mandibular Function Impairment Questionnaire e o software Digital Image-Based Postural Assessment de avaliação postural por fotogrametria. Foi realizada análise estatística com ANOVA de um fator e teste de correlação Tau B de Kendall (α<0,05). Os grupos com e sem DTM apresentaram diferenças estatísticas, com tamanho de efeito grande (ŋ2>0,528), para: lordose cervical, pulsão e inclinação da pelve. Quanto à correlação da postura com a severidade da DTM, índices fracos, mas significativos, foram encontrados: ângulo da lordose cervical (τ=0,250), ângulo da cifose dorsal (τ=0,192), ângulo de inclinação pélvica (τ=−0,222) e medida de pulsão da pelve (τ=0,283). Esses resultados indicam que a lordose cervical e a pulsão da pelve se apresentam em aumento da lordose e da pulsão conforme o acréscimo da severidade da DTM, enquanto o ângulo de inclinação se apresenta em menor grau, tendendo à retroversão. Apesar das correlações fracas, os resultados evidenciam alguma relação da postura corporal com a DTM.
