Fig. 7From: Preliminary comparison of three-dimensional reconstructed palatal morphology in subjects with different sagittal and vertical patternsComparison of 3D palatal morphology in skeletal Class II subjects with different vertical patterns. Deviation within 0.25 mm marked in green, ≥ 2.50 mm marked in red, ≤ -2.50 mm marked in dark blue. Red circle represents markedly positive deviation, while 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 II-hype subjects was larger than Class II-norm subjects, while negative deviation means palate of Class II-hype subjects was smaller than Class II-norm subjects. c, d, i and j, Positive deviation means palate of Class II-hype subjects was larger than Class II-hypo subjects, while negative deviation means palate of Class II-hype subjects was smaller than Class II-hypo subjects. e, f, k and l, Positive deviation means palate of Class II-norm subjects was larger than Class II-hypo subjects, while negative deviation means palate of Class II-norm subjects was smaller than Class II-hypo subjectsBack to article page
