Periodontal and orthodontic management of impacted canines
Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.Abstract The maxillary and mandibular canines are described by many clinicians as the “cornerstone” of the arch. When in their optimal position, they play a critical role in providing a well‐balanced occlusal scheme that contributes toward functional as well as neuromuscular stability, harmony, esthetics, and dentofacial balance.

Mechanical properties of orthodontic wires made of super engineering plastic.
Dental materials journal, 2015 Most orthodontic equipment is fabricated from alloys such as stainless steel, Co-Cr and Ni-Ti because of their excellent elastic properties. In recent years, increasing esthetic demands, metal allergy and interference of metals with magnetic resonance ...

Inflammation and mechanical force‐induced bone remodeling
Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.Abstract Periodontitis arises from imbalanced host–microbe interactions, leading to dysbiosis and destructive inflammation. The host's innate and adaptive immune responses produce pro‐inflammatory mediators that stimulate destructive events, which cause loss of alveolar bone and connective tissue attachment.

Applied materials engineering for orthodontic wires
Australasian Orthodontic Journal, 1989 Abstract In Australia, the history of materials engineering for orthodontic wires is generally related to the development of the Begg appliance. Therefore, until recently, it has helped in the search for light resilient forces produced by fine high-tensile stainless steel wires.

International Journal of Paediatric Dentistry, Volume 35, Issue 3, Page 519-528, May 2025.Abstract Background Weighted blankets are one method to provide deep pressure touch sensations, which are associated with a calming effect on the nervous system. Weighted blankets have been reported to elicit a calming effect during stressful dental encounters and routine prophylactic visits in older adolescents and adults.

Cone-beam CT for Dental Radiography [PDF]
arXiv, 2018 The cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) technique was first inserted in dental imaging 15 years ago. Due to this technique 3D imaging in dentistry has been excessively changed. The purpose beyond using CBCT instead of computed tomography (CT) imaging is that CT can not be used in many cases in dentistry, in addition to the higher radiation and cost of
