We have developed new software, Re-track, that will quantify the rates of retraction and protrusion of structures emanating from the central core of a cell, such as neurites or filopodia. Re-Track, uses time-lapse images of cells in TIFF format and calculates the velocity of retraction or protrusion of a selected structure. The software uses a flexible moving boundary and has the ability to correct this boundary throughout analysis. Re-Track is fast, platform independent, and user friendly, and it can be used to follow biological events such as changes in neuronal connections, tip-growing cells such as moss, adaptive migration of cells, and similar behavior in non-biological systems.

Skeletal and dental effects of skeletally anchored forsus fatigue resistant devices during class II malocclusion treatment: A meta-analysis and systematic review.
J Orthod Sci
November 2024
Department of Dentistry and Dental Hygiene, Division of Orthodontics, School of Dentistry, University of Alberta, Canada.
Objective: To evaluate and compare the skeletal and dental treatment effects of Class II malocclusion cases using skeletally anchored Forsus (miniscrew-anchored FRD or miniplate-anchored FRD), with conventional Forsus FRD.
Materials And Methods: Unrestricted electronic search of six databases and additional manual searches were performed up to July 2023. Randomized controlled trials having one treatment arm with skeletal anchored Forsus FRD in treatment of Class II malocclusion and another matched treatment group treated with conventional Forsus FRD were included in this review.

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.

Class I bimaxillary protrusion is characterized by proclined incisors, a convex facial profile, procumbent lips, and increased lip strain. Treatment includes the extraction of premolars and the mesial movement of the proclined anterior teeth in the extraction spaces to correct the inclination. This case report describes the treatment of an 18-year-old male patient who presented with class I bimaxillary protrusion and procumbent lips.

Article Synopsis
- Premolar extraction is an effective treatment for patients with bimaxillary dentoalveolar protrusion, particularly when using clear aligners (CAs) which close extraction spaces but can cause unwanted tooth movements, especially in cases where 2nd premolars are removed.
- This study analyzed two models of bimaxillary dentoalveolar protrusion to understand the effects of extracting either the 1st or 2nd premolars on tooth tipping and anchorage loss using finite element analysis.
- Results indicated that extracting 1st premolars resulted in more significant changes in tooth angulation and a greater tendency for distal tipping compared to 2nd premolars, with the maxillary arch showing more mesial tipping
