Skeletal and dental maxillary morphological characteristics in patients with impacted canines: systematic review and meta-analysis.

Background: There are a few hypotheses for the origin of palatally impacted canines (PIC). Nevertheless, the results of different studies are controversial.

Objective: Considering the evidence available in the literature to determine the skeletal and dentoalveolar dimensions in patients with PIC using cone beam computed tomography (CBCT).

White spot lesions risk management prior and during the orthodontic treatment.

Objective: To evaluate the efficiency of various interventions performed before and during orthodontic treatment which aim to reduce the incidence of WSL.

Materials And Methods: Using PRISMA guidelines in search of clinical trials published between 2017 and 2022, a literature analysis was performed. This search was conducted using following Medical Subject Heading (MeSH) terms in 2 databases: "prevention and control" AND "Orthodontics" AND "Tooth Demineralization".
