AbstractThe purpose of this study was to analyze the treatment and posttreatment maxillary changes achieved with maxillary protraction therapy. The cephalometric records of 25 consecutively treated Chinese children with Class III malocclusions (mean age 8.4 years) were analyzed for cephalometric A point changes, which were then compared with an untreated, age and sex matched Class III control sample. A cephalometric maxillary superimposition technique was used to differentiate between the skeletal and the local contributions to the total A point change. Results showed that 6 months of maxillary protraction therapy produced a mean A point advancement of 2.4 mm compared with 0.2 mm in the control group. Of this advancement, 75% was found to be due to skeletal maxillary advancement and 25% was attributed to local remodeling. Significantly less downward movement of A point was found with treatment compared with the controls, which could be related to the direction of force application. No significant differences were found in the horizontal and the vertical movements of A point between the treatment and the control groups during the 12-month posttreatment period, indicating stability of early maxillary protraction in patients with Class III malocclusions.
