Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The purpose of this study is inspection of the hypotheses that upper digestive tract function, autonomic nervous and endocrine function are improved by the improving of the skeletal Class III malocclusion using orthognathic surgical treatment. Cross sectional and Prospective Study were conducted with the 10 Class III malocclusion patients and 10 normal occlusion subjects. The Maximal voluntary bite force and the occlusal contact area were significantly smaller in the Class III group than in the control group. The Class III patients suggested by significantly higher degree of the Tmax of the 13C-acetate breath test, the LF/HF ratio and the irregularity of gastrointestinal activity rhythm, than for the normal occlusion subjects. After orthognathic surgical treatment, all these values were decreased. These findings suggest that the hypothesis mentioned above is right.
