Fig. 7From: Evaluation of three-dimensional reconstructed palatal morphology in skeletal class III subjects with different vertical patterns using cone beam computed tomographyThe comparison of 3D palatal morphology in different sagittal patterns. Deviation within 0.25 mm marked in green, ≥2.50 mm marked in red, ≤ -2.50 mm marked in dark blue. Blue circle represents markedly negative deviation. a-f, The deviation pattern in male. g-l, The deviation pattern in female. a, b, g and h, Positive deviation means palate of Class III-hype subjects was larger than Class I-hype subjects, while negative deviation means palate of Class III-hype subjects was smaller than Class I-hype subjects. c, d, i and j, Positive deviation means palate of Class III-norm subjects was larger than Class I-norm subjects, while negative deviation means palate of Class III-norm subjects was smaller than Class I-norm subjects. e, f, k and l, Positive deviation means palate of Class III-hypo subjects was larger than Class I-hypo subjects, while negative deviation means palate of Class III-hypo subjects was smaller than Class I-hypo subjectsBack to article page
