Prediction of orthodontic treatment of surgically exposed unilateral maxillary impacted canine patients. Conclusions: Available canine space, maxillary transverse dimension at the molars, and the mandibular incisor Irregularity Index serve as indicators for extraction and/or expansion in cases involving unilateral maxillary…
Bidimensional techniques for stronger anterior torque control in extraction cases. Conclusion: The bDS and the bDW techniques may help enhance anterior torque control in extraction cases. PMID: 22149540 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher] (Source: The Angle Orthodontist) Original Page:…
Effects of screw and host factors on insertion torque and pullout strength. Conclusion: Both outer diameter and length affect the stability of MSIs. Increases in cortical bone thickness and cortical bone density increase the primary stability of the MSIs. PMID:…
Importance of the vertical incisor relationship in the prediction of the soft tissue profile after Class III bimaxillary surgery. Conclusions: In the prediction of soft tissue response it is important to take into account the vertical incisor relationship, particularly in…
