Ninety-one orthodontists from Saudi Arabia completed a questionnaire in relation to the importance and frequency of use of predictors of adherence. In this cross-sectional quantitative and exploratory study, orthodontists were requested to rate the predictors of adherence on a five-point Likert scale. The questionnaire in this study was categorized into four sections such as (1) evaluation – their opinion on the importance of predictor in the assessment of patient adherence, (2) application – scope of use of each predictor in the assessment of adherence in the routine practice, (3) open-ended questions to amass information about other apparent predictors of adherence, and (4) demographics. Mixed and variable responses were obtained in terms of the importance and extent of application of predictors in assessing patient adherence. The survey revealed the most important predictors for adherence that included patient’s adherence to appointments and their cooperation in handling dental appliances, and maintenance of oral hygiene. However, in actual practice, orthodontists were frequently implementing factors such as the patient to keep appointments, the patient is observed to be involved in treatment, and the patient is observed to be enthusiastic about treatment. Through the open-ended questions, multiple factors were reported that need to be explored further. However, the remaining factors reported for adherence portrayed varied patterns. Predictors of adherence were reported with varying extent of consistency among orthodontists in Saudi Arabia. However, adherence to appointment, co-operation in handling of appliances, and oral hygiene emerged as the most significant factors by the orthodontists for adherence in cases of adult patients.","PeriodicalId":42593,"journal":{"name":"APOS Trends in Orthodontics","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2023-11-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139263744","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The second aim was to assess the relationship between the prognosis for rapid maxillary expansion (RME) and age, CVM stage, and MPS maturation stage. Material and Methods: We divided 109 participants into three age groups: <15 years, 15–25 years, and >25 years. The participants had undergone both cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) and lateral cephalometric X-ray examination. Their MPS maturation stage was classified as A to E and CVM stage as cervical stage 1 (CS1) to CS6, according to a previously proposed method. We used the weighted kappa coefficient to assess intra-examiner agreement and Spearman’s correlation coefficient, to evaluate the correlations of MPS maturation stage with age and CVM stage. Results: The weighted kappa coefficients were 0.849 and 0.923 for the identification of MPS maturation stage and CVM stage, respectively. There were significant, but weak correlations between MPS maturation stage and age ( r = 0.313, P = 0.001) and, CVM stage ( r = 0.287, P = 0.002). MPS stage C was the most prevalent across all age groups and all CVM stages. Conclusion: Chronological age and CVM stage may not accurately predict MPS maturation stage, especially in older patients. Further, the prognosis for RME may not be strongly related to either CVM or MPS maturation stage. We recommend using CBCT X-rays for individual MPS assessments before selecting the type of maxillary expansion treatment.","PeriodicalId":42593,"journal":{"name":"APOS Trends in Orthodontics","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135773681","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The bimaxillary osteotomy included advancing the maxilla, mandibular setback, rotating the maxillomandibular complex clockwise, and moving the chin posteriorly. The role of multidisciplinary treatment is very important in orthognathic patients with compromised dentition. Autotransplantation could help patients avoid the need for prosthetic implants.
