Biomechanical Assessment of Root Torque in Clear Aligners: Impact of Trimline Design, Engagers, and Pressure Points With Palatal Compensation Movement

Orthodontics &Craniofacial Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Root torque control is essential for guiding the proper movement of anterior teeth, primarily to prevent periodontal complications. This movement, in clear aligner therapy (CAT), requires precise force application to minimize unintended displacements.

The Effects of Rapid Periodontal Distraction on Tooth Vitality and Bone Quality/Quantity: A Split‐Mouth Experimental Design

Orthodontics &Craniofacial Research, EarlyView.
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 ...
