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…
Introduction This study aimed to compare the extent of buccal bone defects (dehiscences and fenestrations) and transversal tooth movement of mandibular lateral segments in patients after orthodontic treatment with and…
Introduction The aim of this investigation was to evaluate the reproducibility of a voxel-based 3-dimensional superimposition method and the effect of segmentation error on determining soft tissue surface changes. Methods…
Introduction Appreciation of the soft-tissue profile is important in orthodontic diagnosis and treatment. However, are the patients themselves aware of their profile appearance? We aimed to evaluate if age influences…
Introduction The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of 2 extraction patterns on incisor and molar movements in patients with growing Class II Division 1. Methods The sample…
Introduction This study aimed to investigate the relative efficacy of maxillary protraction combined with a modified alternate rapid maxillary expansion and constriction (Alt-RAMEC) protocol compared with conventional protocols in the…
Introduction This study investigated the prevalence of and risk factors for alveolar fenestration and dehiscence in the anterior teeth of Chinese patients with skeletal Class III malocclusion. Methods This study…
Introduction The early diagnosis and interception of potential maxillary canine impaction is the most desirable approach for correcting their path of eruption. However, there is still a lack of evidence…
Introduction The purpose of this prospective clinical trial is to evaluate the changes of soft tissues and designate the esthetic perceptions of children with Class II malocclusion after Herbst appliance…
Introduction The purpose of this study was to determine the esthetic preferences of people at different levels of society and also to determine whether this preference is affected by sex,…
Introduction This study was aimed at investigating the reliability and accuracy of cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) diagnosis of contact between a temporary anchorage device (TAD) and tooth root and assessing…
Introduction The objective of this study was to evaluate the 3-dimensional changes in alveolar bone morphology after traction of buccally vs palatally unilateral maxillary impacted canines (MIC). Methods Following a…
Autotransplantation of a mature premolar in adults can be a treatment of choice for tooth replacement when combined with well-planned orthodontic treatment. This case report describes the successful treatment of…
Various statistical approaches and visual tools have been developed to detect, estimate, and evaluate the impact of publication bias in meta-analysis results. In this article, we present the most popular…
This case report describes the treatment of a 16-year-old female patient with a skeletal open bite and temporomandibular dysfunction. Clear aligners and miniscrews were used to control the occlusal plane…
Introduction Several imaging software programs with different tools are available for upper airway (UAW) analysis by means of cone beam computed tomography. Because of this wide variability, this study aimed…
Does a judge have to instruct the jury that a bad result, in and of itself, is not evidence of malpractice? This was the question that the court had to…
