Changes in the Shape of the Dental
Arch after Orthodontic Treatment – Longitudinal Study Tauferová E., Dostálová T., Racek J. Stomatologická klinika UK 1. LF, Praha, přednosta prof. MUDr. J. Mazánek, DrSc. |

Summary: The objective of the work was to evaluate changes in the shape of the dental arch
after treatment with fixed and removable devices without extraction. Statistical analysis of
the dimensions and shape of the dental arch was implemented before the onset and after
termination of orthodontic treatment and during a check-up examination after an interval of
3–5 years. The plaster models of dental arches obtained by means of a scanner on the computer
screen were processed by digitalization within the framework of thr Kefalo programme.
Segmental analysis was made, dental discrepancy in the dental arch values of Bolton’s index
were assessed and an ideal occlusion curve in the frontal and premolar section of the mandible
was suggested. The presented paper is based on a study by the authors where the shape and
dimensions of the upper and lower dental arch of a selected sample of the junior adult
population was evaluated [1].
