Geometric Morphometric Analysis of Mandibular Symphysis Growth between 12 and 15 Years of Age in Class II Malocclusion Subjects.

The aim of the present paper was to evaluate the morphology changes of the mandibular symphysis (MS) in a longitudinal retrospective cohort of class II untreated subjects. The study sample included 120 subjects followed during normal growth and examined at the age of 12 (T0) and 15 (T1) years. MS was traced using two landmarks and ten sliding semi-landmarks.

Prosthetically Guided Orthodontics (PGO): A Personalized Clinical Approach for Aesthetic Solutions Using Digital Technology.

Conformative rehabilitation generally involves the treatment of partial dentate or the application of veneers. In this regard, conformative rehabilitation aims to generate an aesthetic prosthetic solution minimizing the amount of tissue removal without generating occlusal input interfering with the equilibrium of neuro-muscular function. In fact, pre-prosthetic orthodontics aims to re-establishing the correct position/inclination of the neighboring or antagonist teeth, providing appropriate space for the prosthetic crown.
