Efficacy of clear aligner wear protocols in orthodontic tooth movement-a systematic review
CONCLUSIONS: Within the limitations of the study, the 7-day, 10-day, and 14-day protocols did not show any significant difference in OTM efficacy, except for certain movements that exhibited superior outcomes with the 14-day wear. Hence, a 'hybrid aligner-wear protocol', based on clinical judgement, might serve a better alternative in complex situations.REGISTRATION: PROSPERO CRD42021288179.PMID:38666743 | DOI:10.1093/ejo/cjae020 (Source: European Journal of Orthodontics)

Evaluation of the aesthetics and clinical findings in patients with missing maxillary lateral incisors treated with a 10-year interval
CONCLUSION: Among the IT cases, an improvement in outcomes was noted over time. When comparing SC cases the colour of the crown and overbite had improved, while crown length and BoP had deteriorated over time.PMID:38656537 | DOI:10.1093/ejo/cjae018 (Source: European Journal of Orthodontics)

Evidence-based potential of generative artificial intelligence large language models in orthodontics: a comparative study of ChatGPT, Google Bard, and Microsoft Bing
CONCLUSIONS: Language models (LLMs) show great potential in supporting evidence-based orthodontics. However, their current limitations pose a potential risk of making incorrect healthcare decisions if utilized without careful consideration. Consequently, these tools cannot serve as a substitute for the orthodontist's essential critical thinking and comprehensive subject knowledge. For effective integration into practice, further research, clinical validation, and enhancements to the models are essential. Clinicians must be mindful of the limitations of LLMs, as their imprudent utilization could have adverse effects on pati...

Do patients with different craniofacial patterns have differences in upper airway volume? A systematic review with network meta-analysis
CONCLUSIONS: Considerable differences in upper airway volume were found between sagittal and vertical skeletal configurations. However, results should be interpreted with caution due to the high risk of bias, owing to the retrospective study design, inconsistencies in anatomic compartment boundaries used, samples of mixed children-adult patients, and incomplete reporting.CLINICAL TRIAL REGISTRATION: PROSPERO (CRD42022366928).PMID:38526866 | PMC:PMC10962399 | DOI:10.1093/ejo/cjae010 (Source: European Journal of Orthodontics)
