Introduction The purpose of this research was to compare dentoskeletal changes produced by Herbst and Xbow appliances in late mixed/early permanent dentition patients with Class II Division 1 malocclusion to…
Introduction In this study, we investigated the presence of structural anomalies in the nasal cavity (deviated nasal septum [DNS] and turbinate hypertrophy [TH]) in patients at high risk or not…
Introduction Delayed tooth eruption is often seen in patients with palatally displaced canines (PDC), but there is controversy over whether tooth formation is also delayed. This study attempts to elucidate…
Introduction This study aimed to evaluate the craniofacial effects of microimplant assisted rapid palatal expansion (MARPE) on bone-anchored maxillary protraction (BAMP) through a finite element analysis. Methods A 3-dimensional finite…
Introduction The objective of this research was to evaluate and compare the effectiveness of microabrasion and resin infiltration for white spot lesions (WSLs). Methods Patients with postorthodontic WSLs were enrolled…
Introduction The objective of this research was to evaluate the effect of orthodontic extraction on the pharyngeal airway volume and Minimum cross-sectional area (MCA) in growing and adult patients. Methods…
Introduction This study aimed to evaluate maxillary skeletal and dental yaw in patients with skeletal Class III facial asymmetry and investigate its correlation with menton deviation. Methods Initial cone-beam computed…
Introduction The objective of this study was to compare the survival rates and periodontal health in patients with 3-strand round twisted (RT) vs 8-strand rectangular braided (RB) fixed retainers bonded…
Introduction The objective of this research was to analyze the effect of orthodontic treatment with maxillary permanent first molar extraction on the occlusal stress distribution and displacement in the human…
Introduction This study aimed to evaluate the influence of age, sex, and facial growth patterns on the maturation stage of midpalatal sutures. Methods We selected 90 total skull cone-beam computed…
One of the most challenging problems for orthodontists is that of multiple missing maxillary teeth in a growing patient. In many patients, a good treatment option is autotransplantation. This case…
The use of fixed retainers at the end of a course of orthodontic treatment has become standard practice. The main complication that can occur with fixed retainers is the detachment…
Missing participant outcome data (MOD) are ubiquitous in clinical trials and may threaten the validity of the results. The risk of bias associated with MOD is carried over to the…
I know I’m gonna start some fights here, so let’s get to it. When you obtain a patient’s informed consent, does it have to be in writing? Apparently not in…
Introduction Three-dimensional (3D) printing technologies are profoundly changing the landscape of orthodontics. To optimize treatment-oriented applications, dimensional fidelity is required for 3D-printed orthodontic models. This study aimed to evaluate the…
Introduction Extreme patterns of vertical facial divergence are of great importance to clinicians because of their association with dental malocclusion and functional problems of the orofacial complex. Understanding the growth…
Introduction The center of resistance (C Res ) is regarded as the fundamental reference point for predictable tooth movement. Accurate estimation can greatly enhance the efficiency of orthodontic tooth movement….
Introduction This study aimed to investigate the incidence and recovery of neurosensory deficit (NSD) after LeFort I osteotomy over 12 months and identify any association between age, gender, and extent of…
Introduction The objective of this study was to evaluate the forces and moments exerted by orthodontic aligners on 3 different displaced maxillary teeth and their adjacent supporting teeth. Methods An…
Introduction The objective of this research was to study the factors associated with the alveolar bone depth mesial to the mandibular third molars (M8) after the mandibular second (M7) and…
