摘要

Introduction: The aim of this prospective, longitudinal study was to evaluate changes to the external shape and form of the nose after surgically assisted rapid maxillary expansion and orthodontic treatment. The changes were registered using a 3-dimensional computer tomography technique, based on superimposition on the anterior base of the skull. Methods: The subjects comprised 35 patients (mean age, 19.7 years; range, 16.1-43.9 years). Low-dose, helical computerized tomography images were taken at treatment start and after orthodontic treatment, about 18 months postsurgery. The 3-dimensional models were registered and superimposed on the anterior cranial base. Results: There were in general significant widening and overall anterior and inferior displacement of the nasal soft tissues. The changes varied in size and direction. No correlation was found between the initial and final widths of the nose, or between the initial and final widths of the nostrils. Conclusions: After surgically assisted rapid maxillary expansion, the most obvious changes to the external features of the nose were at the most lateral alar bases. The difference in lateral displacement profoundly influenced the perception of a more rounded nose. Patients with narrow and constrained nostrils can benefit from these changes. The 3-dimensional superimposition applied in this study is a reliable method, circumventing projection and measurement errors.
