无牙颌的分类已经发展的基础上随机横断面研究,从300个干燥的头骨样本。值得注意的是,虽然下颌骨和上颌骨的基突形状保持相对稳定,但牙槽突形状的变化在垂直轴和水平轴上都非常显著。通常,牙槽突的形状变化遵循可预测的模式。这种分类有助于简化对残留牙槽嵴的描述,从而有助于临床医生之间的沟通;有助于选择适当的外科修复技术;提供一个客观的基线,以评估和比较不同的治疗方法;并有助于决定拦截技术,以保护牙槽突。了解发生在无牙颌不同部位的吸收模式,使临床医生能够预测和避免未来的问题。
A classification of the edentulous jaws has been developed based on a randomized cross-sectional study from a sample of 300 dried skulls. It was noted that whilst the shape of the basalar process of the mandible and maxilla remains relatively stable, changes in shape of the alveolar process is highly significant in both the vertical and horizontal axes. In general, the changes of shape of the alveolar process follows a predictable pattern. Such a classification serves to simplify description of the residual ridge and thereby assist communication between clinicians; aid selection of the appropriate surgical prosthodontic technique; offer an objective baseline from which to evaluate and compare different treatment methods; and help in deciding on interceptive techniques to preserve the alveolar process. An awareness of the pattern of resorption that takes place in various parts of the edentulous jaws, enables clinicans to anticipate and avert future problems.
