This report describes a combined orthodontic and surgical treatment approach for a severe skeletal Class III malocclusion in a young Indian woman with serious esthetic concerns. The case required significant surgical correction in the anteroposterior and vertical planes, involving surgeries in both the maxilla and the mandible. The case required the use of mini-implant anchorage in the presurgical phase as well as postorthodontic prosthodontic rehabilitation to replace missing posterior teeth to restore the occlusal table.

: The aim of this prospective study was to assess the effects of rapid maxillary expansion (RME) and/or face mask (FM) treatments on the pharyngeal airway in patients with skeletal Class III malocclusion caused by maxillary deficiency. This study utilized cone beam computed tomography (CIBT) for a three-dimensional (3D) analysis of airway changes, comparing the results with those of a control group consisting of untreated skeletal Class III patients. : The study included 60 participants (34 boys, 26 girls) aged 9 to 14 years, all diagnosed with skeletal Class III malocclusion due to maxillary underdevelopment.

Objective: To develop an original-mirror alignment associated deep learning algorithm for intelligent registration of three-dimensional maxillofacial point cloud data, by utilizing a dynamic graph-based registration network model (maxillofacial dynamic graph registration network, MDGR-Net), and to provide a valuable reference for digital design and analysis in clinical dental applications.

Methods: Four hundred clinical patients without significant deformities were recruited from Peking University School of Stomatology from October 2018 to October 2022. Through data augmentation, a total of 2 000 three-dimensional maxillofacial datasets were generated for training and testing the MDGR-Net algorithm.

Objectives: Temporomandibular joint osteoarthritis (TMJ-OA) with condylar resorption is a multifactorial condition involving hormonal imbalance and articular disk dysfunction, often leading to severe TMJ degeneration. This study investigated the combined effects of estrogen deficiency and anterior articular disk derangement (ADD) on condylar bone resorption in a mouse model.

Methods: Female C57BL/6J mice underwent ovariectomy (OVX) to induce estrogen deficiency and ADD was surgically induced for stress.
