    Title translation Pertinence des outils de téléorthodontie : une revue systématique de la littérature
    Abstract Introduction: The concept of teleorthodontics was recently born; the Covid-19 crise has participated to the emergence and the amplification of this phenomenon.
    Objective: The main aim of the present systematic review was to evaluate the teleorthodontics relevance.
    Method: An electronic and manual search was performed in four databases (PubMed, Scopus, Embase and Cochrane Library) up to December 2021 according to PRISMA guidelines. Both prospective and retrospective studies, as well as case reports, case series and satisfaction surveys published in English or in French without time restriction were included. Two independant reviewers were involved in the selection of the studies and a third reviewer was required in case of disagreement. A bias assessment was performed using the Mixed Methods Appraisal Tools.
    Results: Out of 1757 articles, 22 articles published mainly between 2019 and 2021 and with varying levels of evidence, were included. Considering the results obtained, different concepts were discussed (time management, quality of communication, reliability and use of tools, satisfaction, quality of human relations, emergency management, compliance).
    Conclusions: Teleorthodontics is an interesting and complementary tool that is, in no way, a systematic alternative to face-to-face orthodontic appointments in the office. However, many essential aspects of telemedicine in orthodontics, such as data protection, still need to be investigated in order to fully analyze this tool.

    Abstract Objective: To assess the stability of the effects of the modified Alt-RAMEC and facial mask (FM) protocol at a post-pubertal observation.
    Methods: Twenty-one Class III patients (11 males and 10 females, 6.5 ± 0.7 years) treated consecutively with the Alt-RAMEC/FM approach and presenting with lateral cephalograms taken before treatment (T1), after treatment (T2), and at post-pubertal observations (T3) were compared with 22 Class III patients (9 males and 13 females, 6.9 ± 1.2 years) treated with the rapid maxillary expansion (RME) and FM protocol and with 15 Class III untreated subjects (7 males and 8 females, 6.2 ± 2.2 years). At T3, all patients showed a post-pubertal skeletal maturation stage (CS4-CS6). Descriptive statistics and statistical comparisons between the three groups at T1 and for the T3-T1, T2-T1, and T3-T2 changes were assessed by means of the ANOVA or Kruskal-Wallis test.
    Results: During the overall observation period, Alt-RAMEC/FM and RME/FM protocols produced statistically significant favourable effects when compared with the Control group (ANB + 2.8° and +2.2°, respectively; Wits appraisal +4.4 mm and +2.7 mm, respectively). No statistically significant differences were found between the outcomes of the Alt-RAMEC/FM and RME/FM protocols neither at the post-pubertal or short-term observations.
    Limitations: Retrospective study and the comparison with an historical control sample of subjects with untreated Class III malocclusion.
    Conclusions: The Alt-RAMEC/FM protocol cannot be recommended as the approach of choice for the therapy of Class III dentoskeletal disharmony in very young subjects compared to the conventional RME/FM protocol.

    Abstract Objective: To compare dentoskeletal changes produced by the maxillary splint headgear and cervical headgear appliance during the early phase of Class II treatment, specially the initial overjet and upper incisors position.
    Subjects and methods: In this retrospective study, 28 Class II patients treated with the maxillary splint headgear (maxillary splint headgear or MSG, mean age 10.1 ± 1.9 years) and 28 Class II patients treated with cervical headgear (cervical headgear group or CHG, mean age 9.5 ± 1.9 years) were evaluated before and after treatment. Statistical comparisons between the two groups for cephalometric measurements at T1 and for T2-T1 changes were performed by means of independent sample t tests.
    Results: The MSG showed a significantly greater reduction of the overjet in comparison to the CHG (-2.4 mm and -0.7 mm, respectively) and a significantly greater maxillary incisor uprighting (-1.8 mm and 0.4 mm, respectively). In the MSG, overjet correction was due mainly to mandibular advancement (3.5 mm), while the correction of molar relationship (3.9 mm) was 64% skeletal and 36% dentoalveolar. In the CHG, the overjet correction was also more skeletal, due to mandibular growth (1.8 mm), while correction of molar relationship (3.5 mm) was 63% dentoalveolar and 37% skeletal.
    Conclusions: Both groups showed favorable skeletal mandibular changes, which was more significant in the MSG. Regarding tooth movement, the maxillary splint headgear was more effective in uprighting upper incisors and reducing the overjet than cervical headgear appliance.

    Abstract Objective: To compare the long-term dentoskeletal effects of early treatment with banded or bonded RME (Rapid Maxillary Expansion)-Face Mask (RME-FM) versus late treatment with bonded Hybrid-Hyrax, alt-RAMEC (Alternate Rapid Maxillary Expansion and Contraction) and intraoral Class III elastics anchored to miniscrew-reinforced-Lower-lingual-Arch (alt-RAMEC-HH-LLA) in growing, maxillary retrognathic patients.
    Materials and methods: Two groups were matched at long-term follow-up retrospectively. Patients received either early RME-FM (n=16, 5 males, 11 females, age T1: 6.5±0.9 years, age T2: 15.8±2.5 years) or late alt-RAMEC-HH-LLA (n=15, 7 males, 8 females, age T1: 12.52±0.94 years, age T2: 16.8±0.9 years). Total follow-up was 9.2±2.3 years and 4.2±0.2 years respectively, including fixed appliances to compete treatment.
    Results: Both treatments resulted in Class III correction except one unsuccessful case of alt-RAMEC-HH-LLA. Active maxillary protraction was 1.6±0.5years with RME-FM and 0.5 years with alt-RAMEC-HH-LLA being significantly shorter (P<0.001). Values at T2 estimation with multivariate linear regression for correlated multiple outcomes, conditional on baseline estimates, age and sex showed alt-RAMEC-HH-LLA inducing significantly more retroclined lower incisors (mean: -6.11°; 95%CI: -10.66, -1.57; P=0.01), less overbite (mean: -1.28mm; 95%CI: -1.79, -0.761; P<0.001), less maxillo (Co-A)- (mean: -4.54mm; 95%CI: -7.91, -1.16; P=0.01) mandibular (Co-Gn) (mean: -10.5mm; 95%CI: -17.45, -3.55; P=0.003) projections/size, more open gonial angle (mean: 4.93°; 95%CI: 2.27, 7.59; P<0.001), and less S-N length (mean: -5.04mm; 95%CI: -6.57, -3.51; P<0.001).
    Conclusions: Patients treated with either early RME-FM or late Alt-RAMEC-HH-LLA had comparable overall post-pubertal skeletal and overjet corrections. However, the late Alt-RAMEC-HH-LLA showed less correction of dentoalveolar compensations and in particular of the mandibular incisors. The overbite, maxillary and mandibular projection and size were lower and the gonial angle was more open.

    Title translation What is a malocclusion?
    Abstract Since 1907, the international community has used Angle's classification to assess the mesio-distal relationships of the dental arches. It is the basis of the diagnosis of malocclusion in the sagittal dimension and indicates or not an orthodontic correction treatment. This work was aimed to inventory the classification methods of malocclusions used today. Indices of treatment need were also presented because they are based on one or more occlusal anomalies to indicate treatment. The classifications were criticized and the contribution of a functional analysis based on the use of the trilogy setting, centering and guiding was detailed. The type of anomalies (skeletal and dental) must be completed by the analysis of the occlusal anomaly of setting (centering or guiding) and of the category of occlusion (functional occlusion, functional malocclusion or pathogenic malocclusion), ie its possible pathogenic impact on orofacial structures. A consensus on the classification of occlusal anomalies is necessary in order to better identify the anomalies and their global repercussions, and to better define the needs for orthodontic treatment.

    Abstract Objective: To evaluate the transverse relationships of the first permanent molars after the correction of posterior crossbite performed during the deciduous dentition with two different treatment protocols.
    Materials/methods: Ninety patients (40 males and 50 females) with posterior crossbite were treated during the deciduous dentition with either a removable expansion plate (RP group, 60 patients) or rapid maxillary expander (RME group, 30 patients). The dental casts before treatment (T0, mean age 5.1 ± 0.7 years) and after treatment, when the first permanent molars were fully erupted, (T1, mean age 7.7 ± 1.0 years) were analysed. The prevalence rates for posterior crossbite on the first permanent molars in the two groups were compared by means of chi-squared test with Yates correction. A logistic regression was performed to evaluate the factors that could influence the presence/absence of posterior crossbite on the first permanent molars.
    Results: Prevalence rate of posterior crossbite on the first permanent molars at T1 was 34.4 per cent in the total sample, 28.3 per cent for the RP group and 46.6 per cent for the RME group. No significant predictors for the 'presence/absence of posterior crossbite on the first permanent molars' at T1 were found.
    Limitations: Retrospective study.
    Conclusions: After treatment of posterior crossbite during the deciduous dentition phase, the first permanent molars erupted in crossbite in the 34.4 per cent of the cases. The type of treatment is not a significant predictor for the presence of posterior crossbite on the first permanent molars.

    Abstract Background: To compare dentoskeletal changes produced by the maxillary splint headgear and cervical headgear appliance during the early phase of Class II treatment, specially the initial overjet and upper incisors position.
    Subjects and methods: In this retrospective study, 28 Class II patients treated with the maxillary splint headgear (MSG, mean age 10.1 ± 1.9 years) and 28 Class II patients treated with cervical headgear (CHG, mean age 9.5 ± 1.9 years) were evaluated before and after treatment. Statistical comparisons between the two groups for cephalometric measurements at T1 and for T2-T1 changes were performed by means of independent sample t tests.
    Results: The MSG showed a significantly greater reduction of the overjet in comparison to the CHG (- 2.4 mm and - 0.7 mm, respectively) and a significantly greater maxillary incisor uprighting (- 1.8 mm and 0.4 mm, respectively). In the MSG, overjet correction was due mainly to mandibular advancement (3.5 mm), while the correction of molar relationship (3.9 mm) was 64% skeletal and 36% dentoalveolar. In the CHG, the overjet correction was also more skeletal, due to mandibular growth (1.8 mm), while correction of molar relationship (3.5 mm) was 63% dentoalveolar and 37% skeletal.
    Conclusions: Both groups showed favorable skeletal mandibular changes, which was more significant in the MSG. Regarding tooth movement, the maxillary splint headgear was more effective in uprighting upper incisors and reducing the overjet than cervical headgear appliance.

    Abstract Objective: To evaluate the dentoskeletal short-term effects of rapid maxillary expansion and facemask therapy (RME/FM) in a sample of Class III patients showing different vertical skeletal relationships.
    Materials and methods: Seventy-nine patients (35 females and 44 males) having Class III malocclusion were consecutively treated using RME/FM therapy with application of the protraction force in a downward and forward direction and inclination of about 30° to the occlusal plane. All patients were evaluated at the beginning (T1; mean age, 7.7 years) and at the end (T2; mean age, 9.2 years) of orthopedic therapy and divided into three groups according to their vertical skeletal relationships: normal group (NG), hypodivergent group (HypoG), and hyperdivergent group (HyperG). Statistical comparisons between the three groups were performed on the starting forms (T1), the final forms (T2), and the treatment changes (T1-T2) using the ANOVA with Tukey's post hoc tests.
    Results: Favorable modification in terms of maxillary advancement (changes in SNA ranging from 1.4° to 1.8°) and intermaxillary sagittal skeletal relationships (changes in Wits appraisal ranging from 2.5 mm to 3.5 mm) were recorded in all groups. The three groups showed no statistically significant differences in changes in either sagittal or vertical skeletal variables.
    Conclusions: The various vertical skeletal features do not influence the short-term outcomes of RME/FM therapy.
