A 10 mo old Sapsaree dog presented for evaluation and treatment of malocclusion causing palatal trauma. A class III malocclusion with mesiolinguoversion of the 404 and enamel hypoplasia was diagnosed based on oral examination. It was decided to attempt orthodontic correction of the mesiolinguoverted tooth using an elastic chain and inclined bite plane technique with crown restoration of the enamel hypoplasia teeth. One year after the orthodontic correction and composite removal, the mesiolinguoverted right mandibular canine tooth was moved to an acceptable location within the dental arch and the locally discolored right maxillary canine tooth was vital.

Comparative analysis of estimated age by pulp-to-tooth area ratio using CBCT in three different teeth on a subset of Hyderabad population: A preliminary study.

Objectives: The study aims to evaluate the pulp-to-tooth area ratio in permanent maxillary central incisors, lateral incisors, and canines for age estimation using three-dimensional cone beam computed tomography images.
Methods: Hundred cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) images of patients aged between 12-70 years were retrospectively studied using NNT Viewer software version 13. Pulpal and teeth area were evaluated with the "area tool" in the acquired images in all three planes, and the pulp-to-tooth area ratio (PTR) was calculated with the measurements obtained.

Article Synopsis
- Forensic age estimation via dental radiographs can be inaccurate, particularly in long-term steroid users who show abnormal pulp chamber constrictions.
- A study assessed eight steroid users in their 30s to 40s, measuring pulp and tooth areas to estimate age through canine radiographs, revealing significant discrepancies between estimated and actual ages.
- The mean error was about 19-23 years, indicating that unusual pulp chamber findings could help infer a patient's medical history in forensic evaluations.
Agenesis of maxillary lateral incisors: Bone formation by orthodontic tooth movement and long-term stability of the edentulous alveolar ridge at 12-15 years after treatment.

Introduction: The primary aim of this study was to assess the amount and long-term stability of orthodontically created bone in patients with agenesis of maxillary lateral incisors after canine distalization. The secondary aim was to explore the impact of patient age on the process of alveolar bone resorption.
Methods: A group of patients with agenesis of the maxillary permanent lateral incisor was examined at 4 time points: the beginning of orthodontic treatment (T1, n = 80), the end of treatment (T2, n = 80), 2-5 years after treatment (T3, n = 79), and 12-15 years after treatment (T4, n = 32).
Timing of Therapeutic Extractions Can Affect En Masse Anterior Retraction: A Split Mouth Randomized Clinical Trial.

Objective: To investigate the effect of deferred timing of therapeutic extraction on the rate of space closure during en masse anterior retraction.
Methods: Twenty-six patients (aged 16-24 years) with bimaxillary protrusion, crowding <3 mm, requiring bilateral extraction of four first premolars were recruited. Permuted block randomization was done.
Comparative evaluation of intraoral scanners and a spectrophotometer for percent correct shade identification in clinical dentistry.

Center for Dental Medicine, Department of Operative Dentistry and Periodontology, Faculty of Medicine and Medical Center, University of Freiburg, Hugstetter Str. 55, 79106, Freiburg im Breisgau, Germany.
Objectives: The study aimed to assess the percent correct shade identification of four intraoral scanners (IOS) and a spectrophotometer, focusing on how reliably each device selects the correct tooth shade compared to a visual observer's selection. The research question addresses how much clinicians can trust the device-selected shade without visual verification.
Materials And Methods: Sixteen participants with natural, unrestored teeth were included.
