In a multi‐center cohort of over 3900 patients with periodontitis, more than half experienced furcation progression, with a median time to the first event of 3.6 years. Smoking, diabetes, and overall periodontal health were significant predictors of progression. Critically, the initial furcation grade was the most powerful predictor of a tooth's future

Skeletal and Dentoalveolar Effects Using Three Types of Maxillary Protraction Protocols
ABSTRACT Introduction The purpose of this study is to compare the skeletal and dentoalveolar effects of the three types of facemask protocols in children. Subjects and Methods Forty‐eight subjects were grouped into three groups: bone‐anchored facemasks (BAFMs) (BAFM group, n = 16, mean age 10.77 ± 1.00), facemask with miniscrew‐assisted rapid palatal ...
