Attachment Wear in Different Clear Aligner Therapy: A Comparative Study.

Background: Because of its ease and visual attractiveness, clear aligner therapy has grown in popularity as an orthodontic treatment option. On the other hand, the results of therapy may be impacted by attachment wear. Comparing attachment wear in three distinct clear aligner systems-System A, System B, and System C-was the goal of this investigation.

Comparison of the Bleached and Non-Bleached Teeth for the Adhesive Boosters for the Orthodontic Bonding: An Original Research.

Introduction: The bleaching of the teeth is known to reduce the bonding of the orthodontic brackets. Hence, this study was piloted to analyze if there was any variance between the teeth that were and were not bleached when the adhesive boosters were used and for its effect on the shear bond strength.

Materials And Procedures: Hundred premolars (maxillary) that had been excised were randomly split into two groups: bleached teeth and unbleached teeth.

Comparison of the Bone-Anchored Pendulum Appliance and the Bone-Anchored Intraoral Bodily Molar Distalizer: An Original Research.

Introduction: With the advent of mini-implants, Class II correction has become routine. The study's goal was to compare the " ()" to the "" in terms of clinical efficacy.

Materials And Procedures: Five boys and five girls were among the 10 patients in this split-mouth trial who had to have their molars distalized.

Recycling stainless steel orthodontic brackets with Er:YAG laser - An environmental scanning electron microscope and shear bond strength study.

Aim: TO DETERMINE THE EFFICIENCY OF ERBIUM: Yttrium aluminum garnet (Er:YAG) laser with Environmental Scanning Electron Microscope (ESEM) and shear bond strength analysis as a method of recycling stainless steel orthodontic brackets and compare with other methods of recycling.

Materials And Methods: Eighty samples of extracted premolar teeth bonded to SS brackets were tested for rebonded shear bond strength after recycling by four methods and compared with a control group of 20 samples. These 80 samples were randomized into four groups which were recycled by four methods, namely, sandblasting, thermal method, adhesive grinding by tungsten carbide bur, and Er: YAG laser method.
