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 Objectives Periodontal distraction (PD) osteogenesis is a minimally invasive technique capable of rapidly moving uniradicular teeth, thereby shortening orthodontic treatment time. This study aimed to determine whether: (1) PD‐induced tooth movement affects tooth vitality and (2) the regenerated bone meets restorative standards for implant ...

The Person Behind the Smile: A Review of Patient‐Centred Orthodontic Care and a Pragmatic Framework
ABSTRACT Contemporary orthodontics is experiencing rapid technological advancement, yet its impact on outcomes that matter most to patients remains uncertain. Although patient‐centred care has been widely advocated, a clear and teachable framework to support its consistent application across the orthodontic treatment journey is still lacking.
