Invasive cervical resorption of central incisor during orthodontic treatment.

Introduction: Invasive cervical resorption (ICR) is a relatively rare type of ERR (External Root Resorption), in which a localized resorption begins in the cervical area of the tooth, below the epithelial junction and above the ridge crest.

Objective: Describe the clinical case of an 11-year-old boy with no dental trauma history, presenting moderate crowding and ectopic eruption of the maxillary right central incisor. He had been undergoing orthodontic treatment elsewhere, and his family was dissatisfied with the results.

Group pain neuroscience education and dance in institutionalized older adults with chronic pain: a case series study.

: The use of pain neuroscience education in older adults has seldom been reported. While this age group shows high rates of chronic pain prevalence, its characteristics may also challenge an intervention of this nature. This case series aimed to describe a group intervention of pain neuroscience education and dance in institutionalized older adults with chronic pain.

Does the vertical position of maxillary central incisors in men influence smile esthetics perception?

Introduction: The aim of this study was to investigate whether there is any influence on the perception of smile esthetics among orthodontists and laypersons, with regard to different vertical positions of the maxillary central incisors.

Methods: Frontal smile photographs digitally altered at full-face view and close-up view of 2 adult men aged between 20 and 30 years were used. Six vertical positions of the central incisors were created, with changes of 0.
