| Research Abstract |
Previous studies have suggested that an imbalance in buccolingual pressure may play a role in dental compensation of the molars and asymmetry in the dental arch of the mandible in subjects with mandibular deformity (MD). However, it is still unclear whether buccolingual pressure is associated with this phenomenon. The imbalance in buccolingual pressure in MD subjects appears to be related to dental compensation of the molars and asymmetry in the mandibular arch.
