Abstract

ABSTRACTThis study was aimed to evaluate the changes in condylar position when severe anterior open bite pa-
tients were treated with MEAW.The subjects consisted of 11 patients(21 TMJs) who visited the departement of orthodontics in SNUH,
having severe anterior open bite as a chief complain. They were supposed to wear the up and down elas-
tics and MEAW after finishing the leveling. The condylar position was evaluated with individualized cor-
rected tomography in centric occlusion taken before and after treatment.The results were as follows;
1. In the change of condylar position after treatment, there were no statistically significant differences in
right and left TMJs.
2. In the change of condylar position after treatment, there were no statistically significant differences in
each malocclusion groups.
3. There were no statistically significant differences in percent dispacement of condyle between before
and after treatment.
4. There were no statistically significant differences in the amount of change in condylar change.

They were supposed to wear the up and down elastics and MEAW after finishing the leveling. The condylar position was evaluated with individualized corrected tomography in centric occlusion taken before and after treatment.
The results were as follows ;
1. In the change of condylar position after treatment, there were no statistically significant differences in right and left TMJs.
2. In the change of condylar position after treatment, there were no statistically significant differences in each malocclusion groups.
3. There were no statistically significant differences in percent dispacement of condyle between before and after treatment.
