The other findings also indicated direct correlation of tongue position to oropharynx and hypopharynx. Consequently, we emphasize clinically relevant anatomic risk factors that should be given prime importance and serious consideration on the decision whether to extract or not in growing patients.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.4103\/0976-237x.132314","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2014,5,13]],"date-time":"2014-05-13T04:46:38Z","timestamp":1399956398000},"page":"190-194","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1097\/lww.0000000000001000","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":23,"title":["Effects of first premolar extraction on airway dimensions in young adolescents: A retrospective cephalometric appraisal"],"prefix":"10.4103","volume":"5","author":[{"given":"Krishna","family":"Sharma","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Orthodontics and Dentofacial Orthopaedics, Sharad Pawar Dental College, Sawangi, Wardha, Maharashtra, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Sunita","family":"Shrivastav","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Orthodontics and Dentofacial Orthopaedics, Sharad Pawar Dental College, Sawangi, Wardha, Maharashtra, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Narendra","family":"Sharma","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Orthodontics and Dentofacial Orthopaedics, Sharad Pawar Dental College, Sawangi, Wardha, Maharashtra, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Kavita","family":"Hotwani","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pedodontics and Preventive Dentistry, Sharad Pawar Dental College, Sawangi, Wardha, Maharashtra, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Michael D.","family":"Murrell","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Family Dentistry, University of IOWA, College of Dentistry, Iowa city, Iowa, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"276","reference":[{"key":"R1-20250920","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"458","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ajodo.2005.10.025","article-title":"Use of conventional tomography to evaluate changes in the nasal cavity with rapid palatal expansion","volume":"132","author":"Palaisa","year":"2007","journal-title":"Am J Orthod Dentofacial Orthop"},{"key":"R2-20250920","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"853","DOI":"10.2319\/101711-646.1","article-title":"First premolar extraction effects on upper airway dimension in bimaxillary proclination patients","volume":"82","author":"Al Maaitah","year":"2012","journal-title":"Angle Orthod"},{"key":"R3-20250920","first-page":"948","article-title":"Arch width changes in extraction and nonextraction treatment in class I patients","volume":"75","author":"Aksu","year":"2005","journal-title":"Angle Orthod"},{"key":"R4-20250920","first-page":"90","article-title":"An occlusal and cephalometric analysis of maxillary first and second premolar extraction effects","volume":"71","author":"Ong","year":"2001","journal-title":"Angle Orthod"},{"key":"R5-20250920","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"388","DOI":"10.1016\/0002-9416(76)90208-6","article-title":"The effect of different extraction sites upon incisor retraction","volume":"69","author":"Williams","year":"1976","journal-title":"Am J Orthod"},{"key":"R6-20250920","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"428","DOI":"10.1016\/S0889-5406(97)80025-X","article-title":"The effect of premolar extractions on tooth-size discrepancy","volume":"111","author":"Saatci","year":"1997","journal-title":"Am J Orthod Dentofacial Orthop"},{"key":"R7-20250920","first-page":"1","article-title":"Adenoids.
