The effects of rinsing and curing conditions on the biocompatibility of 3-dimensional–printed resin orthodontic brackets

Jun 27, 2026 by in Orthodontics Comments Off on The effects of rinsing and curing conditions on the biocompatibility of 3-dimensional–printed resin orthodontic brackets
Introduction The incorporation of 3-dimensional (3D) printing into orthodontics offers new opportunities for in-office fabrication of resin brackets. However, concerns remain regarding the cytotoxic effects of residual monomers because of…

Evaluation of pharyngeal airway volume, soft-tissue changes, and risk of obstructive sleep apnea after bimaxillary orthognathic surgery in patients with skeletal Class III malocclusion using cone-beam computed tomography and the STOP-BANG questionnaire: A long-term study

Jun 27, 2026 by in Orthodontics Comments Off on Evaluation of pharyngeal airway volume, soft-tissue changes, and risk of obstructive sleep apnea after bimaxillary orthognathic surgery in patients with skeletal Class III malocclusion using cone-beam computed tomography and the STOP-BANG questionnaire: A long-term study
Introduction Bimaxillary surgery is increasingly used for Class III malocclusion, but concerns about potential airway narrowing and its role in obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) remain. This study aimed to evaluate…

Segmental torque relevant orthodontic bracket tie-wing deformation in various bracket-archwire-ligature combinations

Jun 27, 2026 by in Orthodontics Comments Off on Segmental torque relevant orthodontic bracket tie-wing deformation in various bracket-archwire-ligature combinations
Background In fixed appliance therapy, torque moments are transferred through the bracket and are important for the final position of the tooth. Studies have analyzed only the torque-relevant bracket deformation…

The periodontal ligament–periosteum axis: An underexplored pathway for alveolar bone adaptation

Jun 27, 2026 by in Orthodontics Comments Off on The periodontal ligament–periosteum axis: An underexplored pathway for alveolar bone adaptation
The periodontal ligament (PDL) and periosteum are mechanosensitive tissues essential for alveolar bone maintenance, remodeling, and regeneration. Their functional interplay, particularly during orthodontic tooth movement, remains underexplored. This review introduces…

Clinically oriented deep learning system integrating linear and morphological assessment for external orthodontic root resorption

Jun 27, 2026 by in Orthodontics Comments Off on Clinically oriented deep learning system integrating linear and morphological assessment for external orthodontic root resorption
Introduction Manual linear assessment, a classic method for evaluating orthodontic external root resorption (OERR), has limitations: unreliable dento-osseous junction identification and operator variability, time-consuming measurements, and inability to capture 3-dimensional…

Do different orthodontic archwires alter the biomechanical effects of open coil springs on dentoalveolar structures? A finite element analysis

Jun 27, 2026 by in Orthodontics Comments Off on Do different orthodontic archwires alter the biomechanical effects of open coil springs on dentoalveolar structures? A finite element analysis
Background In this study, the effect of open-arch mechanics on the displacement and von Mises stress distributions in mandibular teeth was investigated using a finite element analysis. Methods After mandibular…
