Abstract
El objetivo de este estudio fue determinar la presencia de asimetría de cóndilo mandibular en pacientes de ambos sexos de edades comprendidas entre los 7 y 9 años, con mordida cruzada posterior unilateral o bilateral, que acudieron a un Centro Radiográfico en Madrid. Esta investigación se realizó midiendo anchuras condilares derechas e izquierdas de 42 ortopantomogrfías de niños. Se logró determinar que existe una mayor frecuencia de asimetría de cóndilo mandibular en el grupo de pacientes con mordida cruzada posterior unilateral o bilateral. Respecto al género y tipo de dentición no se encontró una diferencia estadísticamente significativa entre los grupos estudiados. Concluimos el estudio afirmando que no existe una mayor asimetría del cóndilo contralateral en pacientes con mordida cruzada posterior uni o bilateral.
The aim of this study was to determine the presence of asymmetry of mandibular condyle in patients of both sexes aged between 7 and 9 years with unilateral or bilateral posterior cross, who attended a bite Radiographic Center in Madrid. This research was performed by measuring right and left condylar widths of 42 children orthopantomographies. It was determined that there is a higher frequency of asymmetry of mandibular condyle in the group of patients with posterior cross bite unilateral or bilateral. Regard to gender and type of dentition a statistically significant difference between groups was not found. We conclude the study stating that there is not a greater asymmetry of contralateral condyle in patients with posterior cross bite unilateral or bilateral.
