ABSTRACT Objective This study aimed to analyse the three‐dimensional forces acting on maxillary teeth with aligners activation of en‐masse retraction based on the different attachment positions in vitro. Methods Three groups were designed for the same 0.25 mm en‐masse retraction forces with three different attachment positions.

The oral microbiota and periodontal health in orthodontic patients
Abstract The oral microbiota develops within the first 2 years of childhood and becomes distinct from the parents by 4 years‐of‐age. The oral microbiota plays an important role in the overall health/symbiosis of the individual. Deviations from the state of symbiosis leads to dysbiosis and an increased risk of pathogenicity.
