FIXED RETAINERS - INSTRUCTION FOR PATIENTS

, 2023
Ortodontska retencija definira se kao zadržavanje zuba u optimalnom estetskom i funkcionalnom položaju nakon ortodontskog tretmana. Retencija je važna i neophodna jer omogućuje sazrijevanje novoformirane kosti, reorganizaciju i prilagodbu gingivalnih ...

Evaluation of histological impacts of three types of orthodontic fixed retainers on periodontium of rabbits. [PDF]

J Dent (Shiraz), 2014
Statement of the Problem: Fixed retainers were developed to maintain incisor alignments after orthodontic treatments. Although the effects of fixed retainers on periodontal health are clinically studied, no studies have still evaluated the ...

Liver organoids: modelling complexity in homeostasis and disease

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Studying liver in vitro has been challenging because simple 2D cell cultures fail to capture liver's cellular and architectural complexity. To bridge this gap, scientists increasingly use organoids, 3D liver models which better mimic liver composition and function. This review examines recent advances in liver organoid complexity and realism, discusses

First Aid for Orthodontic Retainers

, 2010
The need for long-term retention to prevent post-treatment tooth movement is now widely accepted by orthodontists. This may be achieved with removable retainers or permanent bonded retainers.

Analysis of quality of life and periodontal health with an eight-unit maxillary fixed retainer through a prospective clinical trial

Scientific Reports
Retention is crucial in orthodontics, aiming to preserve treatment outcomes and enhance patient satisfaction with permanent fixed retainers. However, a removable retainer may be needed with fixed retainers to prevent unwanted changes.

Epigenetic reprogramming of lineage switching in cancer

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Cancer cells rarely commit to a single identity. Epigenetic mechanisms and tumor microenvironment cues push epithelial cells toward flexible, hybrid states that can shift into mesenchymal, neuroendocrine, or stem‐like fates, driving metastasis, drug resistance, and tumor heterogeneity. Targeting the epigenetic regulators behind these transitions, using

Assessment of the unwanted tooth movement associated with an extended maxillary fixed retainer (3D analysis)

BMC Oral Health
Background Posttreatment changes after orthodontic treatment are challenging. One of the main reasons for such a phenomenon is the lack of patient compliance with removable retainers especially in the maxillary arch, due to palatal coverage ...

Autophagy and mitophagy in pancreatic β‐cell homeostasis and their involvement in diabetes pathophysiology

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This review focuses on the role of autophagy and mitophagy in maintaining pancreatic β‐cell function and homeostasis. We discuss how genetic defects affecting these pathways contribute to the development of type 1, type 2, monogenic, and gestational diabetes. We further explore their potential as therapeutic targets. Created in BioRender.

Analysis of Different Positions of Fiber-Reinforced Composite Retainers versus Multistrand Wire Retainers Using the Finite Element Method

International Journal of Biomaterials, 2014
Background. The aim of this study was to evaluate root displacement of the lower incisors fixed with FRC in different positions versus FSW retainers using the finite element method. Materials and Methods.
