The retromolar fossa is an anatomically suitable skeletal anchorage site. The aim of this report was to introduce a novel appliance for the correction of skeletal Class III malocclusions with…

Introduction The aims of this study were to evaluate the effects of rapid palatal expansion on the craniofacial skeleton of a patient with unilateral cleft lip and palate (UCLP) and…

Introduction In this study, we experimentally evaluated whether complex, mature sutures can be separated using skeletal anchorage and light, continuous forces. Methods Twelve adult, 8- to 9-month-old female New Zealand…

This case report describes the successful treatment of severely impacted mandibular second molars with severe apical root resorption of the mandibular first molars. The vertically impacted second molars were orthodontically moved (using…

Introduction The purposes of this study were to measure the 3-dimensional parameters of the posed smile and to see whether there are any correlations with vertical cephalometric skeletal measurements. Methods…

Introduction The aim of this study was to compare the palatal ruga patterns in subjects with oligodontia and normal tooth numbers. Methods An observational investigation was conducted by using maxillary…

Transmigrated mandibular canines increase the treatment complexity in terms of both anchorage and biomechanical planning. Additionally, a Class II malocclusion with a deep overbite and associated dental anomalies such as…

This textbook deals pragmatically with mixed dentition treatment, looks squarely at 2 phases of treatment, and helps the reader to understand what can be done. Nine authors from around the…

Introduction It is important to reduce the method errors when evaluating posteroanterior cephalograms to see either small deviations from normal or transverse changes caused by orthodontic treatment. The aim of…
