The influence of antero-posterior dentoskeletal pattern on the value of nasal soft tissue angles: a cephalometric study

Abstract: The aim of this study was to examine the influence of sagittal dentoskeletal pattern on the value of profile nasal soft tissue angles and estimate the significance of examined differences for each angle. Lateral cephalograms were used to examine the nasofrontal angle, nasofacial angle, nasal tip angle, and nasolabial angle of 120 adult Caucasian subjects (60 male and 60 female) from the central Balkan area. Subjects were divided into four groups according to the ANB angle and incisors inclination: Class I as t… Show more

“…It is conceivable that upper lip length increases due to maxillary overgrowth, and upper lip thickness augments in cases with maxillary retrusion due to soft tissue compensation, which is also confirmed by previous studies in other countries [ 5 , 32 , 33 ]. However, the significant decrease in nasolabial angle from Class II to Class III was contradictory to previous studies, including Burstone’s perspective that decreased nasolabial angle indicated maxillary protrusion [ 31 , 34 , 35 ]. In vertical dimension, the hyperdivergent group had a significantly larger nasolabial angle and upper lip length, and a significantly smaller superior sulcus depth and basic upper lip thickness, while the hypodivergent group exhibited opposite upper lip characteristics.…”

“…The difference was only statistically significant for Class II and Class III. This finding is in agreement with the study done by Arshad et al [ 25 ] and Perović et al [ 26 ]. They too found greatest NLA for Class II malocclusion followed by Class I and Class III, although the difference found was not statistically significant.…”

“…The findings of our present study supported the above-mentioned study in aspects that nasal development and nasal profiles seems to get affected on sexual dimorphism and showed significant concurrence with another study done by Starck WJ et al 25 The present study stated that nasal profile gets affected on different skeletal classes of subjects i.e., there was statistically significant differences of nasal profiles in skeletal Class I, Class II and Class III subjects respectively which were affected by upper lip inclination and was further supported by the studies done by Taha A.A. and Ahmed A.S. and Perovic T.M. et al 26,27 Alhuwaizi A. et al conducted a study to evaluate nasolabial angle in Iraqi subjects with Class I, II and III skeletal relationships. They concluded that there was no gender variation detected in nasolabial angle.…”
