Introduction Direct printing of clear aligners could be the next paradigm shift in modern orthodontics and can potentially overcome the limitation of the indirect production method. This study investigated the…
Introduction This study compared whether there is a difference in treatment time (TT) and efficiency when appointments are held once a month or at 2-week intervals in patients with Class…
Introduction Different types of intraradicular restorations and their insertion have an impact on teeth biomechanics. This study aimed to analyze the biomechanical behavior of maxillary central incisors restored with glass…
Introduction Near-infrared imaging (NIRI) has been proposed as an alternative to radiographs and uses nonionizing radiation in the near-infrared spectrum to differentially scatter light off tooth surfaces and generate images…
Introduction This study aimed to investigate changes in bite force (BF) and occlusal contact area after anterior open-bite (AOB) treatment and compare the changes in surgical vs nonsurgical treatment. Methods…
Introduction This study investigated the effects of different timings of orthodontic treatment on the root development of impacted anterior teeth in children. Methods The cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) data of…
Orthodontists are well placed to detect soft-tissue disease of the oral cavity and associated structures because of the frequent repeat examinations of their patients. This review describes the clinical manifestations,…
Introduction This study aimed to evaluate mandibular asymmetry in unilateral posterior crossbite (UPXB) patients and compare the asymmetry between adolescents and adults with UPXB. Methods This study included and analyzed…
Introduction This study aimed to clarify the effect of power arm length combined with additional torque incorporated into the archwire on the controlled movement of the anterior teeth using the…
Introduction Mandibular asymmetry has negative impacts on maxillofacial aesthetics and psychological well-being. This study investigated the effects of unilateral injection of botulinum toxin type A (BTX-A) into the masseter muscle…
