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…
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…
