LOCATION AND CORRELATION OF HYOID BONE WITH CLOSED STRUCTURES ON CEPHALOMETRIC FILMS OF DENTAL AND SKELETAL CLASS I
Main Article Content
Abstract
Objective: to determine the position of the hyoid bone and to find the correlation with cranial, mandibe and cervial vetebrane bones on cephalometrics of class I, skeletal I adult. Cross-sectional descriptive studied on 90 cephalometrics films of 18-25 age-old students. Research results: distance C3-H: 33.59 ± 3.98 mm, distance H-RGN: 35.46 ± 4.51 mm and distance C3-RGN: 66.70 ± 5.40 mm. Conclusion: the hyoid bone is located more anteriorly in males than in the cervical vertebrae, and the distance of the hyoid bone to the Frankfort plane is also greater in males than in females. A positive correlation was between the distance from the hyoid bone to the cervical spine and the distance from the Frankfort plane.
