2018年1月16日 · Based on the now nearly 20 years of experience in staging cervical vertebrae, this article was prepared as a “user's guide” that describes the CVM stages in detail in attempt to help the reader use this approach in everyday clinical practice.

The present study introduces a further modified version of the Cervical Vertebral Maturation (CVM) method for the detection of the peak in mandibular growth, based on the analysis of the second through fourth cervical vertebrae in a single cephalogram.

Abstract: The present study aimed to provide a version of the Cervical Vertebral Maturation (CVM) method for the detection of the peak in mandibular growth based on the analysis of the second through fourth cervical vertebrae in a single cephalogram.

2018年1月16日 · In this paper, a detailed description of our approach to this diagnostic process is presented. The aim of this study, therefore, is to propose user-friendly guidelines to improve intra- and interobserver reliability and to facilitate the applicability of the …

2020年7月25日 · The new CVM method presents with five maturational stages (Cervical Vertebral Maturation Stage [CVMS] I through CVMS V, instead of Cvs 1 through Cvs 6 in the former CVM method). The peak in mandibular growth occurs between CVMS II and CVMS III, and it has not been reached without the attainment of both CVMS I and CVMS II.

2012年12月1日 · CBCT scans were examined in seven sagittal slices based on cervical vertebral maturation staging (CVMS). Collected CVMS values were compared with those from corresponding lateral cephalometric radiograph. CVMS measured from CBCT and lateral cephalometric radiographs were the same on average.

Six maturational stages of those three cervical vertebrae can be determined, based on the morphology of their bodies. The first step is to evaluate the inferior border of these vertebral bodies, determining whether they are flat or concave (ie, presence of a visible notch). The second step in the analysis is to evaluate the shape of C3 and C4.

The cervical vertebral maturation (CVM) method is used to determine the craniofacial skeletal maturational stage of an individual at a specific time point during the growth process. This diagnostic approach uses data derived from the second (C2), third (C3), and fourth (C4) cervical vertebrae, as visualized in a two-dimensional lateral cephalogram.

CVMS 1: Inferior surfaces of all vertebras are flat and get narrower from posterior towards anterior. B. CVMS 2: Formation of a concavity at the lower border of the second vertebra has started...

2018年1月16日 · A further modified version of the Cervical Vertebral Maturation (CVM) method is introduced, based on the analysis of the second through fourth cervical vertebrae in a single cephalogram, to identify optimal timing for the treatment of a series of dentoskeletal disharmonies in all three planes of space.
