Comparison of Transverse Dentofacial Dimensions in Adults with Skeletal Class I and Class II Malocclusion, Horizontal Growth Pattern and Mild to Moderate Periodontitis using CBCT- A Retrospective Study [PDF]
Introduction: Knowledge of transverse dentofacial dimensions is crucial for accurate diagnosis and treatment planning. Periodontitis can alter the widths of the arches by causing pathological migration of teeth and the concurrent bone loss can affect the

Comparison of radiographic changes in the alveolar crest after extraction of fully and partially erupted premolars during orthodontic treatment: A retrospective analytical study [PDF]
Background. The alveolar process plays an essential role in providing dental support and gradually disappears with tooth loss. Space deficiency can cause one premolar to remain semi-erupted adjacent to a fully-erupted premolar.
