Introduction The purposes of this study were to measure the 3-dimensional parameters of the posed smile and to see whether there are any correlations with vertical cephalometric skeletal measurements. Methods…
Introduction The aim of this study was to compare the palatal ruga patterns in subjects with oligodontia and normal tooth numbers. Methods An observational investigation was conducted by using maxillary…
Transmigrated mandibular canines increase the treatment complexity in terms of both anchorage and biomechanical planning. Additionally, a Class II malocclusion with a deep overbite and associated dental anomalies such as…
This textbook deals pragmatically with mixed dentition treatment, looks squarely at 2 phases of treatment, and helps the reader to understand what can be done. Nine authors from around the…
Introduction It is important to reduce the method errors when evaluating posteroanterior cephalograms to see either small deviations from normal or transverse changes caused by orthodontic treatment. The aim of…
In the previous article I used an example comparing residual tooth irregularity after 6 months in 2 patient groups treated with different nickel-titanium wires. I discussed the adjustment of the analysis…
Introduction The purpose of this study was to determine, by statistical shape analysis of original and mirrored skeletal landmarks, the optimal landmark-based midsagittal reference plane for evaluation of facial asymmetry. Methods…
