Biology of biomechanics: Finite Element Analysis of a Statically Determinate System to Rotate the Occlusal Plane for Correction of Skeletal Class III Openbite Malocclusion [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Introduction In the absence of adequate animal or in-vitro models, the biomechanics of human malocclusion must be studied indirectly. Finite element analysis (FEA) is emerging as a clinical technology to assist in diagnosis, treatment planning, and ...

Orthodontic management of uneven gingival margins in patients with healthy or reduced periodontium to improve smile aesthetics

open access: yesPeriodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Uneven gingival margins may cause visible asymmetries during smiling and may reflect alterations in the tooth shape and morphology, particularly in cases requiring restorative procedures. Despite being perceived as a minor health condition, presence of uneven gingival margins usually impacts the smile aesthetics and could affect the individual'

IN-VITRO ASSESSMENT OF A NOVEL BRACKET\u27S EFFECT ON RESISTANCE TO SLIDING [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Friction, binding and notching are the factors that contribute to resistance to sliding during orthodontic tooth movement. However, most attempts at reducing resistance aim only to reduce the archwire/ligature friction.

Three‐dimensional digital quantitative analysis of periodontal and peri‐implant phenotype—A narrative review

open access: yesPeriodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract 3D digital evaluation of the periodontal and peri‐implant tissue, including CBCT, intraoral scanning, optical surface scanning, and ultrasonography, is being used in the clinical arena with increasing frequency. Thus, to validate the utilization of 3D digital analysis for this purpose, a critical evaluation of the reliability of digital ...
