Nashwan Mohammed Ahmed Yahya Abo Arrijall
Obtained the Master degree with an Excellent average in the major of Clinical Orthodontics from the Department of Orthodontics, Paedodontics and Preventive Dentistry, Faculty of Dentistry and Oral Surgery, Sanaa University,
For her Master’s thesis entitled:
Cone Beam Computed Tomography Analysis to Evaluate the Relationship between Cranial Base Morphology and Skeletal Malocclusion
The examining committee consisted of:
- Professor Dr. Ghamdan Abdallah AL-HARAZI, Principle Supervisor
Committee Member,
- Professor Dr. Abdul-Haq Husain AL-HASANI, External Examiner
Head of Committee, and
- Associate Professor Dr. Naela Mohammed Ali AL-MUJAHED, Internal Examiner Committee Member.
The study aims at investigating the relationship between the cranial base morphology and maxillomandibular base in various types of skeletal malocclusion by both genders of a Yemeni population in Sanaa City. The study uses the Cone Beam Computed Tomography for analysis.
The study comes out with some results of which: Class iii malocclusion has a longer anterior cranial width than Class ii malocclusion. The study shows variations in size of cranial base dimension between both genders.
The researcher presents a number of recommendations at the end of this Master’s thesis, of which: further studies are needed as for: larger population samples taking in consideration male-female measurements, and studies on the cranial base as for group age with a particular focus on those before teenage and after. Focus on ethnical and cultural aspects is also recommended so that findings can be generalized.
Attendees of the viva session were a number of academics, researchers, students of the major, the researcher’s colleagues and some of family members.
