Abstract: Objective To explore the correlation between the hyoid bone position and dental maxillofacial complex in adult women and to obtain the accurate measurement to predict the hyoid bone position. Methods A total of 53 female subjects aged 18.4-30.7 years(average 22.7 years)were selected. Lateral cephalograms and cone-beam computed tomography(CBCT)scans were performed. After orientation of the head posture, 24 measurements of the dental maxillofacial complex, tongue and hyoid position were calculated with Dolphin Imaging® software. And then these measurements were compared and analyzed using SPSS 22.0 software. Results The upper first molars’ central fossa width(U6CW)was negatively correlated with the upper first molars’ furcation width(U6FW)(r=-0.262, P=0.029), and the distance from hyoid to the mandibular plane(H-MP)(r=-0.313, P=0.023). The lower mandibular angle(FMA)was positively correlated with H-MP(r=0.298, P=0.030). Hyoid bone position of Osseous Ⅱ was lower than that of 山 东 大 学 学 报 (医 学 版)56卷5期 -李丁洋,等.成年女性舌骨位置与牙颌面相关指标的三维分析 \=-osseous Ⅲ(P=0.017). The position of hyoid bone in patients with vertical growth patterns was lower than that in patients with horizontal and average growth patterns(P=0.016; P=0.014). The length of the tongue(TT-Eb)was positively correlated with the low position of the tongue and hyoid bone(P=0.007). Conclusion The position of hyoid bone is correlated with the maxillofacial complex in adult women. In patients with vertical growth patterns, narrow dental arch and low hyoid position, the hyoid bone position tend to be lower.
