Although such impactions are rare, it is recommended to diagnose early for an optimal treatment time and reduction of complications. In addition, the effective molar uprighting appliance used in this study has displayed good treatment outcomes with natural improvement of the adjacent infrabony defects of the first molars.

The 8-year-old girl also presented with protrusion of teeth and lips, posterior crossbite, anterior open bite, thumb-sucking habit, and transposition of the maxillary left lateral incisor and canine. The treatment consisted of a multidisciplinary approach, including surgery, orthodontics, endodontics, and prosthodontics. The dilacerated incisor was surgically exposed, tractioned, endodontically treated, and restored. Four premolars were extracted to correct the protrusion. The outcome was the accomplishment of a balanced and functional occlusion, resulting in a pleasant smile. PMID: 22149545 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher] (Source...

Its inheritance follows the autosomal dominant pattern. Both familial and individual cases are reported in the literature. The syndrome is characterized by wide phenotypic variation, with affected individuals expressing clinical signs of variable severity due to variable expressivity of the responsible genes. Clinical signs of the syndrome include auricular malformation, hypoplasia of the mandibular condyles, anomalies of the temporomandibular joints, malocclusion, and, in more severe cases, cleft palate, glossoptosis, facial asymmetry, and r...

A decision-making process and a simple orthodontic technique are described. To shorten the treatment time and simplify the procedures, the impacted right mandibular third and second molars were orthodontically uprighted with an innovative tip-back cantilever. Subsequently, the deeply impacted right mandibular first molar was extracted with minimal obstacles. The combined surgical-orthodontic approach resolved a challenging clinical problem and eliminated the need for prosthetic or dental implant replacement of the impacted molars.

In light of this, oral surgeons and orthodontists should be concerned about the volumetric midfacial difference after leveling the maxillary occlusal plane at the preoperative stage and thus should take appropriate measures to improve it.

The biologic aspects and clinical appearance of the recontoured lateral and central incisors were analyzed. The position of the examined teeth and the appearance of the surrounding soft tissues were satisfactory; however, the upper midline frenulum deviated to the left. The incisor was successfully moved with no obvious detrimental effects as observed on the final radiographs. In the radiographic and tomographic examinations, the midline suture seemed to have followed the tooth movement. The patient expressed satisfaction with the results. It was concluded that orthodontic movement of the central incis...

Design revisions to N1 effectively mitigated N1's high insertion torque and thus potentially reduced microdamage to the surrounding bone. The N2 design is promising as evidenced by enhanced stability and high mechanical efficiency. Moreover, N2 is not limited to placement in interradicular spaces and has the capacity to be placed in the buccal bone superficial to the root surface with diminished risk of endangering nearby anatomic structures during placement and treatment.

In particular, limited propagation around the arch in passive ligation reduces the occurrence of unwanted force/couple systems compared with elastic ligation. These advantages may not transfer to a clinical setting because of the conditions of the tests; additional testing would be required to determine whether these advantages can be generalized.

TAC((a)) was more effective than Oraqix in placing TADs with a recommended dose of 0.20-0.30 mL and a minimum application time of 3 minutes.

Filled resin sealants protect the teeth from decalcification.

Even though the self-etch bonding system had lower shear bond strength than the total-etch system, both were still clinically acceptable.

The results indicate that ceramic brackets exhibit less long-term biofilm accumulation than metal brackets.

The N-line is a reproducible and stable reference line for the reorientation. It is preferred over the V-line or even E-line, especially when the radiographs and photographs are taken at different sessions or at different treatment stages.
