Abstract

This study investigated the upper airway characteristics in patient with class II skeletal using cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT). We used a cross-sectional descriptive study on CBCT scans of 124 participants by using STL file; dimensions, CMA, total volume, velocity and max pressure were calculated by CBCT and CFD softwares. The average value of the deviation between two jaws in this study group was 5.840. The overall upper airway volume in this group had an average of 21.05mm³, while the average smallest cross-sectional area (CMA) in this group was 180.07mm².
