Closure of an open bite using the ‘Mousetrap’ appliance: a 3-year follow-up

Australasian Orthodontic Journal, 2015
Recently, skeletal anchorage devices have been used as anchorage units for upper molar intrusion as a way of correcting an anterior open bite malocclusion. To avoid the surgical procedures associated with the placement of miniplates in the zygomatic area,

TEMPORARY ANCHORAGE DEVICES AND GUMMY SMILE

The Libyan Dental Journal, 2015
Aim was to evaluate the usability of mini-screw (Temporary Anchorage Devices TADs), as an anchor unit (units), in the treatment of gummy smile associated with deep over-bite. The sample was made up of 15 adult gummy smile patients (2males and 13 females).Materials and Methods All patients suffered from increased anterior facial height.

Multiscale Coupling From Mastication to Retronasal Aroma Perception: The PG‐DTCFN Model and Multiphysics Simulation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Using grilled lamb skewers as a model system, this work builds a multiscale coupling framework from oral processing to retronasal aroma perception, reveals dual‐kinetic release patterns and Electroencephalogram‐characterized central encoding features, and proposes an interpretable physics‐guided deep learning model validated by multiphysics simulation,

A Dual‐Modal Wearable PPG Smartwatch with AI‐Enhanced Correction for High‐Accuracy and Continuous AF Burden Assessment

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Atrial fibrillation (AF) increases the risk of stroke and heart failure, yet accurate quantification of AF burden in daily life remains difficult. Although smartwatch photoplethysmography (PPG) supports continuous monitoring, complex rhythms and signal noise can impair burden estimation.

Thermal Control of Concentric Topographies Patterned by Dynamic Electro‐Templated Generated Chiral Solitonic Structures

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
An electro‐templating strategy directs the relaxation of cholesteric finger loops into discrete concentric rings whose geometry is electrically programmed. The photopolymerized structures retain the topological defect pattern and, upon heating, show reversible, castle‐like surface modulation.

Stretchable Energy Storage with Eutectic Gallium Indium Alloy

Advanced Energy Materials, Volume 15, Issue 11, March 18, 2025.
A highly stretchable liquid metal‐based electrode is developed via a one‐step process, retaining conductivity and capacitance after mechanical deformation up to 900% strain. The stretchable all‐solid‐state device provides a areal energy density of 43 µWh cm⁻2 after 150% strain.

Sustainable Carbon Fibers Enable Stable Long‐Term Lithium Metal Deposition for Prospective Zero‐Excess Lithium Metal Batteries

Advanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
This work presents lightweight, lignin‐derived carbon fiber current collectors that enable controlled lithium deposition. Structural defects and intermediate‐sized pores stabilize pre‐nucleation quasi‐metallic lithium clusters, promoting uniform lithium plating and stripping.

Use of Orthodontic Mini-Implants in Conjunction with Elastics for Extrusion of Impacted Canines and Correction of Bimaxillary Protrusion

Journal of Pharmacy and Bioallied Sciences
Orthodontic extrusion of canines, although challenging, can yield excellent results without tooth extraction. Temporary anchorage devices (TADs), involving mini-implants in the alveolar bone, offer stable anchorage via biomechanics.
