Do probiotics promote oral health during orthodontic treatment with fixed appliances? A systematic review
(2020)
Background:
Treatment with fixed orthodontic appliances has been associated with significant biofilm accumulation, thus putting patients at a higher risk of oral health deterioration. The use of probiotics has been ...
How orthodontic research can be enriched and advanced by the novel and promising evolutions in biomedicine
(2021)
Abstract:
Recent advances in developmental, molecular and cellular biology as well as biomedical technologies show a promising future for crossing the gap between biomedical basic sciences and clinical orthodontics. ...
Does interceptive extraction of multiple primary teeth increase the chances of spontaneous eruption of permanent maxillary canines positioned palatally or centrally in the alveolar crest? A Systematic review
(2022-05)
Introduction:
Extraction of primary maxillary canines in the mixed dentition has been suggested to increase the rate of normal eruption of displaced permanent canines (DPCs). In this study we assessed whether extracting ...

Amelogenesis imperfecta and anterior open bite: Etiological, classification, clinical and management interrelationships
(2014-03)
Abstract:
Although amelogenesis imperfecta is not a common dental pathological condition, its etiological, classification, clinical and management aspects have been addressed extensively in the scientific literature. Of ...
Anterior teeth root inclination prediction derived from digital models: A comparative study of plaster study casts and CBCT images
(2018)
Background:
To assess the accuracy of digital models generated using commercially available software to predict anterior teeth root inclination characteristics and compare the results to relevant data obtained from CBCT ...
Estimation of root inclination of anterior teeth from virtual study models: accuracy of a commercial software
(2019)
Background:
The aim of the study was to assess the accuracy of commercially available software in estimating anterior tooth root inclination from digital impressions of the crowns of the teeth.
Subjects and methods: ...
Apical root resorption of deciduous teeth: a review
(2016)
Abstract:
The resorption of deciduous teeth is considered a necessary process leading to their exfoliation. In most cases it begins in the apical root region and proceeds coronally, yet some local or systemic factors can ...
