Objective: Periodontally accelerated osteogenic orthodontics (PAOO) combines selective alveolar decortication with orthodontic force to accelerate tooth movement, but its influence on the gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) ...

Mini screw orthodontics merupakan alat yang digunakan dalam perawatan ortodonsia untuk kasus yang membutuhkan absolute anchorage. Mini screw yang tersedia terbuat dari logam nikel titanium atau stainless steel yang pada...

Introduction and aims: For decades, orthodontic diagnosis and treatment have primarily depended on physical models, imaging techniques, and three-dimensional (3D) imaging technologies. Nevertheless, single-modal data exh...

Introduction and aims: Skeletal Class II malocclusion is heterogeneous, and conventional two-dimensional cephalometry may not fully capture relevant three-dimensional (3D) craniofacial variation. This study aimed to iden...

Abstract Precise placement of orthodontic mini-implants (OMIs) in the anterior palate, particularly in the median and paramedian regions, is essential for reliable skeletal anchorage. Digitally planned insertion guides m...

BackgroundAn interdental brush (IDB) is an adjunctive oral-hygiene tool designed to clean interproximal spaces and remove dental plaque. This study systematically evaluated its effectiveness for improving oral hygiene an...

Abstract Hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia (HED), caused by mutations in genes such as EDAR, is a genetic disorder characterized by hypodontia, hypotrichosis, and hypohidrosis. Dental anomalies in HED patients lead to fu...

Background/Aim: Noonan syndrome (NS) is an autosomal dominant disorder, caused by mutations on genes located on the long arm of chromosome 12. The condition has no sex or race predilection and its incidence is 1 per 1,00...

Background: Accurate prediction of facial aesthetics after orthodontic treatment is crucial for clinical planning, yet traditional methodologies often lack the required accuracy and realism. We introduce a novel generati...

Background/Aim: The aim of the research is to assess the psychosocial impact of malocclusion, to determine the relationship with the degree of need for orthodontic treatment, and to assess the influence of gender on this...
