Exploring the relationship between oral healthcare service choice, treatment needs and oral health-related quality of life Open
The association between oral health treatment needs and OHRQoL persisted, independent of the relationship with Oral Healthcare Service choice. Additionally, younger cohorts exhibited a greater need for restorative treatment compared to old…

Genome-wide association study of pulpal and apical diseases Open
Infections of the dental pulp are common sequelae of microbial activity and host susceptibility, affecting >80% of adult population. We performed a genome-wide association study on endodontic infections utilizing Finnish health registry an…

Effects of early and later timed cervical headgear treatment on the eruption timing and pattern of permanent upper canines and molars from 7 to 18 years of age: follow-up of a randomized controlled trial Open
Background Although cervical headgear (CH) is a widely studied method for the correction of Class II malocclusion, there is a lack of evidence regarding the effects of early versus later treatment timing on permanent upper canines and mola…

Changes in Facial Soft Tissue Asymmetry in Class II Patients One Year After Orthognathic Surgery Open
Objectives: The objective of this study was to examine changes in facial soft tissue asymmetry over time in patients after Class II orthognathic surgery using three-dimensional (3D) stereophotogrammetry. Methods: The study consists of 54 p…

Genome‐Wide Association Study of Temporomandibular Disorder‐Related Pain in Finnish Populations Open
Background Temporomandibular disorders (TMD) are multifactorial musculoskeletal pain and dysfunctions in temporomandibular joints (TMJs) and masticatory muscles. Genetic factors play a role in TMD‐related pain, but only a few genome‐wide a…

Chewing Side Preference, Facial Asymmetry and Related Factors in the Northern Finland Birth Cohort 1986 Open
Objective: The aim of this study was to find out how the preferred chewing side (PCS) affects facial asymmetry, what kind of factors affect PCS, and whether there are differences in facial asymmetry between symmetrical and asymmetrical mas…

Need for orthognathic surgery in cleft patients from Northern Finland Open
Objective: Northern Finland has a unique distribution of clefts compared to the rest of Europe and Finland. This may reflect the need for orthognathic surgery among Northern Finland’s patient pool. The aim of this study was to compare prev…

Incidence of medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw and associated antiresorptive drugs in adult Finnish population: A registry-based longitudinal study Open
Abstract This retrospective study aimed to evaluate the incidence of medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ) and associated antiresorptive drugs in the Finnish population. All adult patients (aged 18 years and older) who were p…

A longitudinal study of facial asymmetry in a normal birth cohort up to 6 years of age and the predisposing factors Open
Summary Objectives This prospective, population-based cohort study aimed to investigate the development of facial asymmetry up to 6 years of age using a three-dimensional (3D) soft tissue imaging method in a normal population. In addition,…
View article: Prevalence of sagittal molar and canine relationships, asymmetries and midline shift in relation to temporomandibular disorders (TMD) in a Finnish adult population
Prevalence of sagittal molar and canine relationships, asymmetries and midline shift in relation to temporomandibular disorders (TMD) in a Finnish adult population Open
The present study findings gave some indications that canine relationships are associated with pain-related TMD, whereas Angle II sagittal occlusal relations may associate with joint-related TMD. Occlusal characteristics should therefore b…

Facial asymmetry and chewing sides in twins Open
The volume of the chin becomes larger on the side opposite to the twins' habitual chewing side. As the results are quite similar in both twin types, functional factors are more prominent than heredity.

Craniofacial Asymmetry from One to Three Years of Age: A Prospective Cohort Study with 3D Imaging Open
Deformational plagiocephaly (DP) is considered a risk factor for facial asymmetry. This cohort-based, prospective, follow-up study used three-dimensional (3D) stereophotogrammetry to assess the development of facial asymmetry in a normal b…

A 3D Follow-Up Study of Cranial Asymmetry from Early Infancy to Toddler Age after Preterm versus Term Birth Open
Preterm infants are at higher risk for both symmetrical and asymmetrical head molding. This study involved 3D stereophotogrammetry to assess the cranial growth, molding, and incidence of deformational plagiocephaly (DP) in preterm children…

A scale space approach for exploring structure in spherical data Open
A novel scale space approach, SphereSiZer, is proposed for exploring structure in spherical data, that is, directional data on the unit sphere of the three-dimensional Euclidean space. The method finds statistically significant gradients o…
