Association between control of vertical dimension in orthodontics and orthopedic treatment
Transverse maxillary discrepancy, mandibular skeletal retrusion, and increased lower anterior face height have been recognized as frequent abnormalities in growing individuals, despite the paucity of available data. Aim: This research looked at the relationship between treatment planning and Control of Vertical Dimension (CVD) effectiveness in orthopaedic and orthodontic therapy (OT). Methods: We searched full-text publications in PubMed, Web of Science, Scopus, Embase, Google Scholar, and ScienceDirect databases from 1970 to 2024. The Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) quality scale was used for the critical selection of the studies. Results: We identified 43 articles, of which 28 were included in the review. Also observed that a strong and positive relation was established for the two parameters of CVD and OT for both growing subjects. Conclusion: We can suggest from our study that rapid maxillary expansion (RME) can be used as an aid for the control of vertical dimension estimation.
