TL;DR: Steady stream of publication with skeletal anchorage comes 6–10% in the major orthodontic journals, which is similar to previous years.

TL;DR: The prevalence of sella turcica bridging was 5.6%, and STD, ICD and degree of ICL calcification increased with age, in Japanese female orthodontic patients, and sella Turcica morphology and bridging were associated with tooth impaction, but not with maxillofacial skeletal deviations.

TL;DR: R and R2 from the distances and area with volume for subgroups demonstrated moderately high to extremely high values and prediction equations from 2D to yield 3D.

TL;DR: The three-dimensional method described in the present study improves the evaluation of facial morphology and provides insight into the changes in the lip morphology of preadolescent patients.

TL;DR: Evaluating the effect of saliva contamination and curing and reusing self-etching primer (SEP) on shear bond strength of orthodontic brackets found SEP has more value than the conventional primer in reaching to good bond strength results so that it may diminish the bad effect of venom contamination on sheer bond strength.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used a structural superimposition analysis to test the hypothesis that facial mask treatment influences maxillary sutural growth, condylar growth, and total rotation of mandibular corpus.

TL;DR: A new formula was developed for the prediction of mesiodistal width of maxillary canine (MDMaxC) from the mesio distal mandibular canine width (MDMCW) that will be helpful for the clinical treatment planning in orthodontic, prosthodontics, and restorative dentistry.

TL;DR: The observed morphological characteristics of the dental and basal arch forms and dental arch form-basal arch form relationships in the MP-group suggest the possibility of using dental cast analysis to identify an individualized therapeutic target for dental decompensation.

TL;DR: In this paper, the function of microRNA-200a during the development of primary and secondary cartilages in the mandible during the embryonic stage was analyzed using qRT-PCR and in situ hybridization.

TL;DR: Glass fiber-reinforced plastic (GFRP) orthodontic wire showed equivalent efficiency to that of commercial Ni–Ti wire in improving mild anterior crowding in a typodont experiment and can be used in place of Ni-Ti wire during the initial leveling stage.

TL;DR: Correction of the posterior crossbites enabled the patient to perform smoother jaw-closing movements during chewing and asymmetry in the morphology of the chin, cheek, and lips was reduced, justification of surgical-orthodontic treatment to improve jaw function and facial appearance.

TL;DR: The domestically produced prototype EBR tested in this study showed greater strength than ABR and did not contain toxic substances such as Bisphenol A, suggesting that it has a potential to be used as a photocurable resin in the field of dentistry in future.

TL;DR: The results suggest that to reduce the bone void to the cortical bone surrounding the screw, it is important to use appropriate insertion torque in accordance with cortical bone thickness.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that interdisciplinary dental treatment including orthodontic treatment with TADs can improve the occlusal function and the esthetic problems in patients with incontinentia pigmenti exhibiting oligodontia and skeletal Class III malocclusion.

TL;DR: Subjects with BMDP showed a palatally located root apex of the maxillary central incisor and mesially tipped lateral teeth when compared with subjects with normal occlusion and balanced profile from the same ethnic population.

TL;DR: Pretreatment patients with different sagittal skeletal patterns have different buccolingual inclination of mandibular molars, which might affect the preparation of orthodontic appliances or treatment technique.

TL;DR: Improvements in facial appearance and the dental arches remained stable after 2 years and 11 months.

TL;DR: It is suggested that PCB growth, especially anteroposterior growth evidently influences the effect of bite jumping appliance in skeletal Class II malocclusion.

TL;DR: The position of hyoid bone was most posterior in subjects with skeletal Class II malocclusion associated with mandibular retrognathism.

TL;DR: The suppressive effect of gallotannin was associated with the reduced RANKLmediated induction of NFATc1, a critical transcription factor involved in osteoclast differentiation and reduced the p38 MAPK pathway activation, which is mediated by M-CSF and RankL.

TL;DR: Hemodynamic laterality was found in the masticatory muscles between the deviated and non-deviated sides of the mandible in subjects with FA.

TL;DR: The proposed models to predict the mesio-distal crown widths of the unerupted cuspids and bicuspids in the mixed-dentitions in the Singapore Malay population were found to be effective for clinical use and had accuracies of 90–100%.

TL;DR: Deviations within 10% of the CCH of the vertical reference point were found to have a significantly greater adverse effect on Cl for the maxillary second molar and mandibular second premolar than other teeth.

TL;DR: The correction of AOB by the RMI may be explained by orthopedic and dental changes resulting from growth and treatment, including counterclockwise mandibular true rotation, which is the strongest contributor to overbite increase.

TL;DR: The patient was treated by Le Fort I osteotomy, mandibular distraction on the affected side, and SSRO on the unaffected side, simultaneously, and acceptable occlusion and facial esthetics were obtained, though retrognathic mandible and facial asymmetry still remained.

TL;DR: This case report illustrates the successful treatment of anterior rotation of the mandible due to intrusion of the entire maxillary arch, using miniscrew anchorage in an adult with a convex profile, who desired to improve her facial profile.

TL;DR: Mandibular central incisor extrusion and maxillary first molar infraocclusion showed significant correlation to severe deep overbite in adult Class II division 1 and 2 malocclusions, respectively.

TL;DR: The computational results with finite element analyses show that the shape and position of attachments have no influence on tensile force and tipping moment, and suggest that appropriate model setting is important to evaluate the effect of attachment by finiteelement analyses.

TL;DR: Combined orthognathic–orthodontic treatment improved skeletal 3 deformities and reduced the volume and the antero-posterior width of the pharyngeal airway of patients with such deformities.
