The purpose of this study was to determine the surface strain distribution of a crown and bridge, and to compare the biomechanical behavior of a crown and bridge. The complete crown and 3-unit bridge, whose abutments were the second premolar and the second molar, for three cases of first molar deficit in the mandible, were produced, and the surface strain of prostheses under static loading was measured with strain gauges. When a load was applied, although only a small strain was observed near the margin of the crown, a comparatively large tensile strain was observed near the deficit side margin of the distal retainer on the bridge. In the case of a 3-unit bridge, since there is the possibility that strain will occur in the distal retainer, it is necessary to consider the design of the distal retainer during preparation.

Objective: Improving the effectiveness of complex treatment in patients with distal occlusion of the dentition during the period of active skeletal growth.
Material And Methods: 202 patients with skeletal distal occlusion were examined and treated. Patients are divided into three subgroups depending on the position/size of the jaw bones and the main link of pathogenesis.

Background: Orthodontic relapse is a frequent problem that many patients experience. Although orthodontic therapy has advanced, recurrence rates can still reach 90%. We undertook a study to look at the possibilities of laser bio-stimulation and stem cells because they have showed promising outcomes in lowering recurrence rates.

Aim: The integrity of primary dentition is essential in the development of the jaws and permanent occlusion. The consequences of a premature loss of primary molars are: space loss, crowding, risk of impaction of the permanent teeth, ectopic eruption, anomalous inclination of the teeth adjacent to the loss molar, reduction of arch length. The mesial displacement of the posterior permanent teeth during eruption can cause a loss of space, which can be regained with orthodontic appliances.
