Key points • An evidence-based clinical protocol for orbital fractures will facilitate in the decision making of which type of treatment is most beneficial. • Limited enophthalmos and diplopia without…
Key points • Late and secondary orbital reconstructions are more demanding than primary reconstructions due to altered anatomic landmarks and late soft tissue changes—so the ultimate objective should be an…
Key points • The use of a cadaver model allows assessment of the effect of individual steps of computer-assisted surgery on orbital implant positioning. • The accuracy and consistency of…
Key points • The goal of secondary reconstruction of the midface is to restore harmony with a primary focus of restoration of form and function. • An organized assessment of…
Key points • The first step in advanced diagnostics and virtual surgical planning is the generation of a virtual patient model. • Information can be added to the virtual patient…
Key points • The development and implementation of medical technology in orbital reconstructive surgery is a logical consequence of the philosophy to optimize the treatment procedure before, during, and after…
Key points • Predictable outcomes of complex orbital fracture patterns may be achieved by a structured and evidence-based approach. • Full anatomic and physiologic assessment of the fracture pattern using…
Key points • Trapdoor fracture in children, globe dislocation or trapdoor fracture with a nonresolving oculocardiac reflex, bradycardia, heart block, nausea, vomiting, or syncope are indications for immediate surgery. •…
Key points • Be aware of a combination of mechanical, neurogenic, and sensory causes of diplopia. • Check for factors influencing the absence of diplopia, such as trauma-related visual problems,…
Key points • The skeletal framework around the anterior aperture of each orbit and the 4 walls of the orbital cavity can be conceived as a pyramid with a quadrangular…
Key points • Retrobulbar hemorrhage in the setting of orbital trauma can cause orbital compartment syndrome, which may result in irreversible vision loss. Immediate action through a lateral canthotomy and…
Introduction This study aimed to investigate the effect of EphB4/ephrinB2 signaling on orthodontically-induced root resorption repair and the possible molecular mechanism behind it. Methods Seventy-two 6-week-old male Wistar rats were…
Tooth transposition is an uncommon disorder related to ectopic eruption; it can be classified as complete or incomplete on the basis of the position of the crowns and roots of…
Orthodontists often have trouble treating patients who have temporomandibular joint disorders because occlusion changes depend on the position of unstable condyles. This characteristic means the patients do not have definite…
Introduction The purpose of this study was to compare predicted anterior teeth intrusion measurements with the actual clinical intrusion measurements using cone-beam computed tomography. Understanding the precision of the software…
Introduction The objective of this research was to compare the oropharyngeal volume and minimal cross-sectional area (MCA) changes after maxillary expansion using either the Damon system or Hyrax appliances as…
Introduction This study aimed to assess the static posture in patients with Angle Class II and III malocclusions in the first 2 months after orthognathic surgery. Methods This was a longitudinal…
Introduction This analysis aimed to assess quantitatively and qualitatively the compressive stress (S3) in periodontal ligament in a gradual periodontal breakdown (0-8 mm) under orthodontic movements. Correlations between the applied forces,…
Introduction The purpose of this research was to compare mandibular growth rotation relative to the cranial base in different vertical facial patterns on the basis of multiple 2-dimensional (2D) and…
Introduction The objective of this research was to investigate the effects of different wavelengths low-level laser therapies on orthodontically induced inflammatory root resorption (OIIRR) during orthodontic tooth movement in rats…
