Introduction The objectives of this study were to evaluate postsurgical condylar remodeling using a radiographical interpretation, quantify condylar volumetric asymmetry, and assess soft tissue symmetry after simultaneous unilateral high condylectomy…
Introduction Control of overbite is considered essential in achieving ideal orthodontic outcomes. Questions have been raised regarding the accuracy of ClinCheck software (Align Technology, Santa Clara, Calif) in predicting posttreatment outcomes…
The treatment for intrusive dislocation is a clinical challenge and must be started soon after the intrusion injury. The affected tooth or teeth must be extruded by using light forces….
Introduction The objective of this study was to compare the aging changes of the dental arches in orthodontically treated and untreated subjects after a 4-decade follow-up period. Methods This retrospective…
Introduction This study aimed to establish if there is a significant difference in effectiveness between 2 generations of Invisalign trays in terms of Peer Assessment Rating (PAR) score reduction for…
Introduction The objectives of this study were to assess the changes in right vs left nasal cavity volumes and minimum cross-sectional width, nasopharyngeal, and oropharyngeal volumes of the upper airway…
Introduction This split-mouth randomized clinical trial aimed to compare the enamel surface roughness (SR) and color alteration after bracket debonding and polishing using 2 systems. Methods After removal of excess…
Introduction The objective was to identify and summarize the outcomes and evaluation methods used in clinical trials regarding the prevention and treatment of orthodontically induced white spot lesions (WSLs). Methods…
In a study including cephalometric or dental model measurements, investigators often wish to examine the reliability of those measurements. Therefore, a percentage of the original measurements are repeated a few…
Introduction The aim of this single-blinded, parallel-group, randomized clinical trial was to compare the efficacy of electric 3-dimensional (3D) toothbrushes and manual toothbrushes in removing plaque and reducing gingival inflammation…
A 28-year-old woman desired orthodontic retreatment for lip protrusion and excessive gingival display in both the anterior and posterior areas on full smiling. She had previously undergone an extraction orthodontic…
For the treatment of low-angle mandibular prognathism, rotational mandibular setback surgery is usually performed with Le Fort I maxillary osteotomy to rotate the maxillomandibular complex simultaneously. However, this maxillary surgery…
You are being sued for malpractice. The plaintiff said your treatment was negligent and caused significant injury. There is no claim for lack of informed consent. At trial, your defense…
Introduction The objective of this research was to evaluate and compare linear and surface accuracy of dental models fabricated using 3 different vat photopolymerization printing units: digital light synthesis (M2 Printer;…
Introduction Torque in orthodontics is the activation of the archwire for the third-order movement of teeth. During this force transfer mechanism from the twisted archwire, the bracket is prone to…
Modeling missing participant outcome data (MOD) in a meta-analysis has been advocated as conceptually and statistically advantageous to methods that manipulate the data before analysis by imputing or excluding MOD….
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…
