The traditional technique for correcting class II malocclusion - involving the use of class II elastics and headgear - has been problematic due to its dependence on patient compliance. Functional orthopedic treatment seeks to correct malocclusions and harmonize the shape of the dental arch and
Treatment of Class II subdivision malocclusion is challenging, and orthodontists frequently struggle to determine the choice of treatment. Several treatment modalities have been proposed for correcting these types of malocclusion. Thus, the aim of this case report is to present dentoalveolar and
Orthodontic treatment in patients with congenitally missing teeth can be challenging. In this case report, we describe the treatment of a 15-year-old girl with mild dental crowding and 2 congenitally missing mandibular incisors. The Forsus fatigue-resistant device was used to move the mandible and
OBJECTIVE
The objective of this study is to analyze the association between self-reported symptoms of temporomandibular joint disorder (TMD) and the severity of malocclusion in prospective orthognathic-surgical patients.
METHODS
The subjects consisted of 50 consecutive patients (13 males and 37
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the active-treatment effects of the Forsus fatigue resistant device (Forsus) during comprehensive correction of Class II malocclusion in growing patients.
METHODS
Fifty-four patients (mean age, 12.5 ± 1.2 years) with Class II division 1 malocclusion were consecutively treated
UNASSIGNED
To evaluate the skeletal, dental, and soft tissue changes after the use of miniscrew-anchored inverted Forsus fatigue-resistant device (FRD) in treatment of Class III malocclusion.
UNASSIGNED
In this controlled clinical trial, 16 patients (9 girls and 7 boys; age 12.45 ± 0.87 years) were
We operated on 38 adult patients with congenital ankyloglossia with deviation of the epiglottis and larynx. The results were as follows. 1) Most patients had Angle's class III malocclusion, irregular alignment of the upper teeth, and high hard palate. 2) Fifty percent of the patients in our study
BACKGROUND
To evaluate skeletal and dentoalveolar effects of Forsus fatigue resistant devices (FRD) and twin-block (TB) appliance in Class II malocclusion cases.
METHODS
Twenty young adult patients (age 13-17 years, overjet 6-10 mm) with a Class II division 1 malocclusion were randomly divided into
Magnetic forces have been incorporated into orthodontic mechanics during recent years. However, the biocompatibility of magnet alloys and the possible risk of harmful or unusual reactions in tissues exposed to static magnetic fields have been characterized as inconsistent and often contradictory. It
A new classification for noncarious dental lesions has evolved from the dental literature. The name given to these lesions, dental "abfractions," is a theory propounding tooth fatigue, flexure, and deformation through biomechanical loading of tooth structure, primarily at the cervical regions of the
UNASSIGNED
To evaluate patients' and parents' perception of removable, fixed rigid, and fixed hybrid functional appliances and to compare their impacts on anxiety and discomfort during treatment in different age groups and genders.
UNASSIGNED
Data were gathered by means of a questionnaire that
This study verified the effect of unilateral teeth extraction on the suprahyoid muscles in gerbils (Meriones unguiculatus). Ten adult male gerbils weighing about 50g had induced occlusal alterations by upper molar teeth extraction on the left side while the other ten animals were only subjected to
To determine whether occlusal alteration contributes to masticatory muscle damage by inducing oxidative stress.Thirty Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into six groups, including occlusal interference groups (3 days, 7 days, 14 days, 21 days, and
