Effect of Acidulated Phosphate Fluoride Gel on the Prevention of White Spot Lesions in Patients Undergoing Active Orthodontic Treatment
(2014-05-06)Introduction: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of 1.23% acidulated phosphate fluoride (APF) gel on white spot lesion (WSL) formation utilizing a typical orthodontic treatment interval for the ... -
The Effects of Circumferential Supracrestal Fiberotomy on the Rate of Tooth Movement in the Beagle Mandible: a Randomized Split-Mouth Study
(2018-03-23)Introduction: The purpose of this study was to evaluate whether a single circumferential supracrestal fiberotomy procedure affects the bone around teeth and accelerates tooth movements. Methods: Seven beagle dogs were ... -
Effects of Low Level Laser Therapy on Orthodontic Pain
(2014-04-28)Purpose: To determine the effectiveness of low level laser therapy applied extra orally on the reduction of orthodontic pain. Materials and Methods: Sixty dental students were voluntarily recruited for this randomized, ... -
Effects of Transverse, Bodily Movement of Maxillary Premolars on the Surrounding Hard Tissue
(2016-05-04)Dental tipping and subsequent loss of crestal bone is a negative effect of dentoalveolar expansion, performed using any current non-surgical approach. Purpose: This study was designed to produce buccal translation and ... -
Evaluation of Transverse, Bodily Tooth Movement and Its Effects on the Surrounding Hard Tissue
(2014-05-01)Orthodontic expansion has been associated with uncontrolled tipping and alveolar bone loss. Recent research evaluating orthodontic expansion has shown osteoblastic activity on the buccal cortical bone apical to the dehiscence. ... -
Increasing Sealant Retention During Orthodontic Treatment with Gingival Retraction Cord Isolation
(2018-04-13)Introduction: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of gingival retraction cord isolation on the retention of sealants placed on the facial surface of maxillary anterior teeth during orthodontic treatment. ... -
Is There a Relationship Between Dental Crowding and the Size of the Maxillary or Mandibular Apical Base?
(2018-04-17)OBJECTIVE: To investigate whether there is a relationship between maxillary and mandibular jaw size, measured at the level of the apical basal bone, and dental crowding, measured as tooth-size-to-arch-length-discrepancy ... -
Long-Term Prevalence of Gingival Recession Following Labial Orthodontic Tooth Movement
(2015-04-28)The effects of labial incisor movements are controversial, and the effects of expansion of maxillary posterior teeth remain unknown. Therefore, this study was designed to evaluate the long-term prevalence of gingival ... -
Miniscrew Assisted Slow Expansion of Mature Sutures
(2014-04-28)The purpose of this study was to evaluate whether complex, mature sutures could be separated using skeletal anchorage and light, continuous forces. Twelve adult female New Zealand White (NZW) rabbits, 8 to 9 months old, ... -
Pain Associated with Invisalign Versus Clear Traditional Brackets: A Randomized, Prospective Trial
(2015-05-12)The purpose of the present study is to compare the pain levels, analgesic consumption, and sleep disturbances associated with Invisalign aligners (Align Technology, Santa Clara, Calif) and traditional fixed appliances at ... -
Stability and Three-Dimensional Analysis of Bone Formation in Longitudinally Fluted Miniscrew Implants
(2014-04-22)The purpose of the present study is to evaluate the effects of longitudinal flutes on mini-screw implant (MSI) bone healing and stability. Using 11 skeletally mature New Zealand White rabbits, 33 longitudinally fluted and ... -
The Effects of Micro-Osteoperforations on Tooth Movement and Bone in the Beagle Maxilla
(2016-05-09)Introduction: The purpose of this study was to determine how micro-osteoperforations (MOPs) affect tooth movements and bone characteristics, including bone turnover, bone density, and bone volume. Methods: A split-mouth ... -
The Stability of Immediately Loaded 3 mm Miniscrew Implants: A Feasibility Study
(2016-05-04)Shorter miniscrew implants (MSIs) make it possible to reduce the risk of root damage, increase the number of buccal placement sites, and to treat patients during the mixed dentition. The purpose of the present study was ... -
White Spot Lesion Risk Assessments in Orthodontic Patients – with an Emphasis on Salivary Cariogenic Bacterial Activity Levels
(2018-04-23)Purpose The purpose of this study was to evaluate whether risk factors that have been shown to increase caries susceptibility, including cariogenic bacterial levels and salivary factors, can be used to identify orthodontic ...
