Dentoalveolar Changes in the Premolar Region After Two Maxillary Expansion Protocols
ABSTRACT Objectives To evaluate the dentoalveolar effects on the upper first premolars after two maxillary expansion protocols—rapid maxillary expansion (RME) and alternate rapid maxillary expansion and constriction (Alt‐RAMEC)—before and 6 months after treatment.

ABSTRACT Objective This study evaluated, in three dimensions, the skeletal effects of two minimally invasive bone‐anchored techniques for surgically assisted palatal expansion, with and without pterygomaxillary disjunction (PD) and nasal septum disinsertion (NSD). Materials and Methods Thirty‐nine patients were retrospectively selected from two centres

ABSTRACT Objective To evaluate the short‐term efficacy of transverse dental arch expansion with in‐house aligners (IHA) by comparing planned and achieved buccolingual movements, and secondarily to explore torque expression, vertical control and the influence of attachment design/position using a contralateral within‐subject approach.

ABSTRACT Introduction Medication‐Related Osteonecrosis of the Jaw (MRONJ) is a severe adverse effect of antiresorptive and antiangiogenic treatment, primarily in osteoporotic and oncologic patients. The disease is characterized by persistent jawbone necrosis that results in significant impairment of the quality of life of involved patients.

Abstract In patients with advanced periodontal disease, pathological tooth migration may occur, which may require subsequent orthodontic treatment for both aesthetic and functional purposes. When planning orthodontic treatment mechanics, intrusive or extrusive forces are frequently indicated.

Abstract Orthodontic therapy applies forces to teeth, causing an inflammatory reaction in the periodontal ligament. This is repaired by remodeling of the periodontium, allowing tooth displacement. Although orthodontic therapy is mostly initiated during childhood and adolescence, the number of adults seeking this treatment is increasing as our society's

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'
