- Abstract
- The main focus of this study was to determine if moving the position of the mandible has any effect on the pelvis. This was done using photography before and after moving the mandible to a realigned position. 70 subjects were used. The subjects will be eligible for inclusion in the study if they satisfy the inclusion criteria; i) no back pain during measurements, ii)No use of orthotics, iii)No appliances(braces) at the time of measurement. Subjects with congenital clefts, or who have suspected or identifiable syndromes will be excluded from the experiment. Analysis using paired t'-test showed there was no statistical significance to show the correlation between different positions of the mandible on the pelvis. More studies are needed
