Bone-Borne Maxillary Expansion and Traditional Rapid Maxillary Expansion: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis [PDF]
Introduction: The aim of this study was to perform a systematic review and meta-analysis to compare the effect of bone-borne expansion (BBE) and tooth-borne expansion (TBE) in patients with maxillary constriction. Methods: Electronic databases, including

An Overview on Mini-screws Compliance as Anchorage Unit in Orthodontic Practice
In contemporary orthodontics intrusion of posterior molars without the extrusion of anterior dentition is quite challenging but with the help of temporary anchorage devices like miniscrews it becomes relatively easier for an orthodontist to achieve the ...

A Speedy Yet Simple Tip to Align Imbricated Anterior Teeth [PDF]
Correction of dental crowding can be achieved with several orthodontic procedures like extraction of teeth, proximal stripping etc. In contemporary orthodontic practice, resolution of incisor crowding is most commonly achieved by the use of canine ...

Metallographic analysis of the internal microstructure of orthodontic mini-implants
Effective orthodontic anchorage may be obtained by miniimplants inserted into the maxillary bones. However, the risk of miniimplant failure is one of the most important issues, especially the rupture of its structure referred to as fracture, mainly due ...

Mechanical influence of thread pitch on orthodontic mini-implant stability
The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of pitch distance on the primary stability (PS) of orthodontic mini-implants (MIs) in artificial bone. Twenty experimental MIs were allocated to two groups, according to their geometric design: G1(30oX 0.6

Up-to-Date Approach in the Treatment of Impacted Mandibular Molars: A Literature Review
Eruption problems in the mandibular molars are rare, but they have to be diagnosed and treated early. Treatment of impacted molars is challenging due to a limited access and complexity of the mechanics that needs to be applied.
