Objective: To examine the treatment and post-treatment effects of the Herbst-Multibracket (MB) appliance on facial profile and lip position in adult Class II, Division 2 subjects. Material and Methods: Lateral head films of 16 consecutivelytreated adult Class II, Division 2 subjects (8 males, 8 females) with an average age of 18.8 years pre-treatment were analyzed on three occasions: before...
We present the unusual case of a patient who lost an orthodontic archwire after having, via manipulation, detached it from the brackets. It was only on a routine radiograph at the end of treatment that the archwire was found in the patient’s nasal cavity, where it had failed to cause any symptoms! We discuss the treatment following the inhalation and ingestion of foreign bodies in orthodontics,...
Aim: It was the aim of this clinical study to compare the skeletal and dentoalveolar effects as well as those on the profile of three different treatment approaches in Class II patients (camouflage orthodontics, dentofacial orthopedics, and combined orthodontic and surgical treatment). Patients and Method: Our study cohort consisted of 60 young adults presenting a skeletal Class II, Division...
Guided tissue regeneration is a common form of treatment in dentistry nowadays. The orthodontist will inevitably have to deal with patients needing such therapy more often in the future. This review of the literature addresses the question of whether and if so, how patients with these medical requirements can be treated. We have systematically reviewed the current literature for recommendations,...
Background and Objective: Whether orthodontic therapy is a risk factor for temporomandibular disorders (TMD) or parafunctional habits such as bruxism is a question that has long been discussed. The issue is highly relevant to public health due to the frequency of these functional disorders in the general population and the sheer number of orthodontic treatments. The aim of this cross-sectional...
Aim: Recent papers have discussed genetic predisposition for root resorption. The aim of this study was to investigate this kind of relationship as dependent on the EARR phenotype. Alleles from IL-1A and IL-1B gene polymorphisms are discussed as genetically predisposing factors. Material and Methods: Orthopantomograms (OPG) exhibiting EARR (n = 96) were metrically and statistically analyzed...
