About this study
Official title: Prevalence of Facial Asymmetry Among PreOrthodontic Adult Patients: A Crosssectional Retrospective Study
To estimate the prevalence of facial asymmetry
Read the detailed description
The objectives of the present study are:
- To estimate the prevalence of facial asymmetry among Egyptian population, according to type, sex, and age.
- To provide an insight into the key aspects to be taken into consideration while accomplishing an accurate diagnosis and formulation of rational integrated orthodontic-surgical treatment plan that considers correction of all aspects of the asymmetry.
- Conditions
- Facial Asymmetry
- Medical subject headings
- Facial Asymmetry
What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| 18-40 years old of both sexes | patient from 18 to 40 years old seeking orthodontic treatment |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Type of facial asymmetry
chin deviation,deviation of the nasal pyramid and degree of occlusal plane cant and the relation between each type and existing malocclusion.
Measured: Just before the orthodontic treatment
