Twenty-six orthognathic patients (18 female, eight male; median age 25 years, interquartile range 11.5 years) and 10 control patients (five female, five male; median age 29.8 years, interquartile range 13.5 years) recruited from neutral configured patients attending the Department of Orthodontics, were investigated. Based on cephalometry, the patients were grouped into vertical skeletal configurations of either open, deep, or natural bite cases.
