BACKGROUND: Maxillary expansion is an important treatment method for maxillary transverse hypoplasia. Different methods of maxillary expansion should be carried out depending on the midpalatal suture maturation levels, and the diagnosis was validated...
OBJECTIVES: The selection of treatment for maxillary expansion is closely related to the calcification degree of the midpalatal suture. A classification method for individual assessment of the morphology of midpalatal suture in cone-beam computed tom...
Accurate classification of midpalatal suture maturation stages is critical for orthodontic diagnosis, treatment planning, and the assessment of maxillary growth. Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) imaging offers detailed insights into this craniofa...
OBJECTIVES: To establish age estimation models of northern Chinese Han adults using cranial suture images obtained by CT and multiplanar reformation (MPR), and to explore the applicability of cranial suture closure rule in age estimation of northern ...
