Evaluation of pharyngeal airway volume for different dentofacial skeletal patterns using cone-beam computed tomography

Background/purpose: Understanding of the three-dimensional airway space in three skeletal patterns is important in orthodontic treatment. This study investigated differences between the volume of pharyngeal airway sections and the smallest cross-sectional area in three skeletal patterns by using con...
