The Research Group Scientific Evidence in Orthodontics (UV) develops research focused on the generation, analysis, and application of scientific evidence in the fields of malocclusion epidemiology and dentofacial anomalies, three-dimensional imaging analysis using cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) and 3D intraoral scanners, as well as the study of craniofacial morphology, dentofacial growth and development, and the digital planning of orthodontic treatments. The group also researches the interactions between orthodontics, orthognathic surgery, and sleep-related breathing disorders, particularly obstructive sleep apnea, evaluating their impact on patients¿ function, health, and quality of life, thereby contributing to the advancement of evidence-based dentistry and orthodontics.
The group stands out for its strong scientific track record, leadership, and clear specialization in areas of high clinical relevance. Its main strength lies in the combination of applied research and direct translation into clinical practice. In addition, the group has a stable structure that brings together senior and junior researchers, ensuring the continuity of its research lines and the training...The Research Group Scientific Evidence in Orthodontics (UV) develops research focused on the generation, analysis, and application of scientific evidence in the fields of malocclusion epidemiology and dentofacial anomalies, three-dimensional imaging analysis using cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) and 3D intraoral scanners, as well as the study of craniofacial morphology, dentofacial growth and development, and the digital planning of orthodontic treatments.

NO DETERMINADA,
- Analizar la relación entre las alteraciones dentoesqueléticas y la vía aérea superior.
- Evaluar el impacto de la ortodoncia y la cirugía ortognática en la apnea obstructiva del sueño.
- Identificar la prevalencia y los tipos de maloclusión en la población.
- Evaluar el impacto estético de la maloclusión en la calidad de vida de los pacientes.
- Evaluar la utilidad diagnóstica del CBCT y del escáner intraoral 3D en ortodoncia y odontología.

- Image analysis using CBCT and 3D intraoral scanner in orthodontics and dentistry..This research line focuses on image analysis using cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) and 3D intraoral scanning applied to orthodontics and dentistry, with the aim of optimizing diagnosis, treatment planning, and outcome assessment. Its relevance lies in the integration of digital imaging technologies for the evaluation of dental, skeletal, and soft tissue structures, as well as in generating scientific evidence to support the use of three-dimensional imaging tools in clinical practice.
- Orthodontics, orthognathic surgery, and sleep apnea..This research line focuses on the study of the relationship between dentoskeletal and craniofacial alterations, orthodontic treatments and orthognathic surgery, and their impact on the upper airway and obstructive sleep apnea, with the aim of optimizing diagnosis and therapeutic planning from a functional and interdisciplinary approach. The relevance of this line lies in the growing evidence of the role of maxillofacial morphology in sleep-related breathing disorders and in the need to generate scientific knowledge to support clinical decision-making, in line with the research, teaching, and knowledge-transfer objectives.
- Epidemiology of malocclusion and the aesthetic impact of malocclusion..Malocclusion and its aesthetic impact. Its relevance lies in the assessment of the functional and psychosocial impact of malocclusion, together with the development of evidence-based strategies to improve aesthetics and patient health.
