Bio-Exercise (BioEx) - A biocreative orofacial myofunctional therapy: preliminary cephalometric study and clinical application.

Objective: To introduce newly structured and developed orofacial myofunctional therapy (OFMFT) protocols named Bio-Exercise (BioEx), and evaluate the treatment effect of this method, using lateral cephalometric analysis on malocclusion with low tongue posture in young patients.

Methods: A retrospective preliminary study was performed using orthodontic records from 28 patients (mean age of 8.41±1.

Treatment outcomes of various force applications in growing patients with skeletal Class III malocclusion.

Objectives: To evaluate skeletal, dentoalveolar, and soft tissue changes between intraoral light force application and extraoral heavy force application in growing patients with skeletal Class III malocclusion.

Materials And: Methods: A retrospective study was conducted with pretreatment and posttreatment lateral cephalometric data from 50 subjects with skeletal Class III malocclusion. In the first group (15 boys, 10 girls; 8.
