Introduction: In recent years, the use of Clear aligners (CA) has been diffused among children and adolescents. This systematic review aimed to summarize the literature regarding the effects of CA therapy in growing patients, including dentoalveolar and skeletal effects, periodontal changes, and quality of life measurements.
Methods: An electronic search on four databases was performed until September 2023, and studies including patients <18 years, treated with CA were selected.
Objectives: To conduct a comprehensive bibliometric analysis of the literature on artificial intelligence (AI) applications in orthodontics to provide a detailed overview of the current research trends, influential works, and future directions.
Materials And Methods: A research strategy in The Web of Science Core Collection has been conducted to identify original articles regarding the use of AI in orthodontics. Articles were screened and selected by two independent reviewers and the following data were imported and processed for analysis: rankings, centrality metrics, publication trends, co-occurrence and clustering of keywords, journals, articles, authors, nations, and organizations.
Objective: This retrospective study aims to assess the predictability of Overbite (OVB) reduction and Curve of Spee (COS) levelling in patients with deep bite malocclusion treated with Clear Aligner Therapy (CAT). The research evaluates the accuracy of the prescribed movements in growing and non-growing patients.
Materials And Methods: Thirty-six patients treated with Invisalign from January 2018 using SmartTrack were included.
Article Synopsis
- - The study aimed to analyze the psychosocial status of a large adult population and its connection to Temporomandibular Disorders (TMD), oral behaviors, and self-reported facial trauma, moving beyond previous studies that mostly examined treatment-seeking patients.
- - A sample of 4,299 adults (1,700 males and 2,599 females with an average age of 40.4) was randomly recruited from public spaces; assessments included mental health questionnaires and TMD symptom evaluations, revealing significant rates of psychosocial impairment and chronic pain.
- - Results indicated that mental health issues like anxiety and depression were notably linked to gender, TMD pain, and certain behaviors; additionally, TMD symptoms and pain disability correlated
Background: To achieve a successful result, the orthodontist must use a systematic approach to plan the orthodontic treatment. Defining the correct position of the upper and lower incisors and evaluating their relationship with intermaxillary discrepancy and facial divergence have been recognized as the starting point for the diagnostic decision regarding extractions and anchorage requirements. The aim of our study was to analyze the relationship between intermaxillary discrepancy (ANPg^), mandibular inclination (SN^GoGn), lip incompetence, and the positioning of the upper and lower incisors (UIPs and LIPs) in a group of orthodontic patients.
