[Functional analytic studies on mandibular motility after fractures of the mandibular condyle].

In 42 patients, the mandibular protrusion and lateral excursions after fractures of the mandibular condyles were recorded using the "arrow-angle" registration method. The opening of the mouth was measured directly. The restriction of the mandibular mobility did not always correspond to fracture-mechanical expectations. Mobility improved as the time passed after the trauma, without the movement pattern changing.

[Tooth vitality after interalvolar and perialveolar osteotomies in the maxilla].

Follow-up examinations in 39 patients with osteotomies in the maxillary alveolar ridge for correcting jaw deformities showed that the risk of devitalization of teeth in the mobilized fragments and in the firm residual parts of the jaw is small. In interalveolar osteotomies this risk is slightly greater than in transalveolar osteotomies, because of the restricted space.

[Studies on maxillary growth in patients with cleft palate].

Breadth, length and height of the maxilla and palate measured on models of children with cleft palate decrease at first in the years after operation. The original measurements of the breadth of the dental arch are exceeded at the age of 8,5 but not the length of the dental arch.
