Introduction The objective of this research was to evaluate the buccal bone plate and root length of maxillary permanent first molars using cone-beam computed tomography after maxillary expansion with different…
Introduction Deepbites can be corrected by intrusion of mandibular anterior teeth. Direct anchorage with miniscrews simplifies complex tooth movements; however, few studies have reported their use for mandibular anterior intrusion….
Introduction The objective of this study was to compare the maxillary transverse dimensions between subjects with impacted maxillary canines and subjects without canine impactions, with similar vertical and sagittal features….
Introduction Current methods to evaluate root position either are inaccurate (panoramic radiograph) or expose patients to relatively large amounts of radiation (cone-beam computed tomography [CBCT]). A method to evaluate root…
Introduction The objectives of this research were to evaluate changes in occlusal components in 3 subperiods during a 10-year posttreatment time span and to examine the long-term effects of fixed…
Introduction Knowledge of a patient’s stage of growth and development plays a vital role in diagnosis, treatment planning, results, and stability of the outcome. Cervical vertebral maturation (CVM) predicts the…
Introduction In this study, we aimed to determine the effect of regular probiotic consumption on microbial colonization in saliva in orthodontic patients and to comparatively evaluate the difference between the…
Highlights • Simple randomization leads most of the time to unequal group sizes. • Simple randomization is suggested for large samples, and block randomization is suggested for smaller samples. •…
You had a patient with mandibular skeletal retrognathism and mandibular arch crowding. There were 2 viable treatment plans. In no particular order or implication of which is the better course…
