Angle Orthod. 2020 Mar;90(2):305-313. doi: 10.2319/080218-559.1. Epub 2019 Mar 12. ABSTRACT This case shows that using a rapid palatal expander (RPE) and then a pendulum appliance anchored to palatal miniscrews is an option for improving treatment management in a noncompliant patient requiring maxillary expansion and molar distalization in the late mixed dentition. First, an RPE…

Int Orthod. 2020 Dec;18(4):809-819. doi: 10.1016/j.ortho.2020.08.005. Epub 2020 Sep 28. ABSTRACT OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the biomechanical properties of miniscrews of 5 different lengths, 2 different diameters, and different combinations of insertion used for palatal skeletal anchorage. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Twenty-four different combinations of a total of 120 miniscrews of…
Orthod Craniofac Res. 2021 May;24(2):251-260. doi: 10.1111/ocr.12427. Epub 2020 Oct 15. ABSTRACT OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the subgingival microbiological changes during the first six months of therapy with clear aligners (CAs) and fixed appliances (FAs). The null hypothesis was that there would be no microbiological differences between the two. SETTING/SAMPLE: Two groups of patients to be…
Int Orthod. 2020 Dec;18(4):850-862. doi: 10.1016/j.ortho.2020.08.006. Epub 2020 Sep 15. ABSTRACT This case report describes a successful orthodontic therapy of an adult female treated by mandibular central incisor extraction and vestibular fixed appliances. The patient presented a skeletal Class I with normodivergent facial pattern, Class II subdivision dental relationship, extremely deep Curve of Spee and…
J World Fed Orthod. 2020 Mar;9(1):32-43. doi: 10.1016/j.ejwf.2020.01.001. Epub 2020 Feb 12. ABSTRACT INTRODUCTION: This case demonstrates that hybrid application of clear aligners can be a rational and efficient approach for treating malocclusions, as compared with a clear aligner therapy alone option in which the magnitude of some movements would require a higher number of…
J Esthet Restor Dent. 2020 Oct;32(7):634-637. doi: 10.1111/jerd.12618. Epub 2020 Jul 9. ABSTRACT OBJECTIVE: This report describes the fluorescence-aided composite removal during lingual bracket debonding with an ultraviolet light emitting diode flashlight. The purpose of this technique is to help clinicians in composite removal without enamel surface damage. CLINICAL CONSIDERATIONS: The bracket debonding requires clinical…
Am J Orthod Dentofacial Orthop. 2020 Feb;157(2):218-227. doi: 10.1016/j.ajodo.2019.03.024. ABSTRACT INTRODUCTION: The aim of this study was to investigate the vestibular anatomy of teeth in samples of adult Italian and Mozambican subjects in ideal occlusion and permanent dentition and identify any anatomic characteristics that may influence bonding in the straight-wire technique. METHODS: Linear measurements and…
Prog Orthod. 2020 May 11;21(1):12. doi: 10.1186/s40510-020-00312-w. ABSTRACT BACKGROUND: To investigate and compare the gap (i.e. fit) and thickness of six aligner systems (Airnivol, ALL IN, Arc Angel, F22, Invisalign and Nuvola) using industrial computed tomography (CT). The null hypothesis was that there would be no detectable differences in either measurement between the aligners investigated.…
