Objective: To compare the differences in the amount of dental root resorption (DRR) measured using different orthodontic techniques in the orthodontic treatment of patients with different sagittal skeletal patterns.
Methods: Ninety-three patients undergoing orthodontic treatment were randomly divided into group A (n=46) and group B (n=47). Group A was treated with bracketless invisible orthodontics and group B was treated using the self-ligating fixed orthodontic technique. Cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) was used to measure the amount of DRR in the patients with different sagittal skeletal patterns receiving the orthodontic treatment.
Results: After the treatment, the amounts of DRR in the maxillary and mandibular canines in both groups were lower than they were in the other 4 tooth positions ( < 0.05). The amount of DRR in the maxillary and mandibular canines in the patients with skeletal class I in both groups was lower than it was at the other four tooth positions ( < 0.05). The amount of DRR in the maxillary central incisors and maxillary canines in the patients with skeletal class II in group A was higher than it was in group B, but the amount of DRR in the mandibular canines in group A was lower than it was in group B ( < 0.05). The amounts of DRR at the six tooth positions in the patients with skeletal class III in group A were higher than the amounts in group B ( < 0.05).
Conclusion: DRR occurs in patients with different sagittal skeletal patterns undergoing the two orthodontic techniques in the orthodontic treatment, but there are differences in the amount of DRR among the patients with different sagittal skeletal patterns receiving the orthodontic treatment. Clinically, the orthodontic method should be selected based on the type of patient.

Aim And Background: The applications of artificial intelligence (AI) are escalating in all frontiers, specifically healthcare. It constitutes the umbrella term for a number of technologies that enable machines to independently solve problems they have not been programmed to address. With its aid, patient management, diagnostics, treatment planning, and interventions can be significantly improved.

Aim And Background: Angioedema is a nonpruritic swelling that typically affects the skin, mucous membranes of the face, and perioral soft tissues. It can be life-threatening, but it is usually not and can be treated conservatively unless the airway is compromised. This paper seeks to illuminate a rare case of hereditary angioedema (HAE) onset following dental procedures in a 9-year-old Indian boy.

Accidental ingestion of foreign bodies frequently necessitates emergency department visits, with many cases requiring surgical consultation. Although most ingested items pass through the gastrointestinal tract uneventfully, orthodontic components, such as wires, present a specific risk due to their shape and material properties. This report describes a rare case of a 13-year-old male adolescent whose initial presentation suggested ingestion of a chicken bone.

Aim: To evaluate risk indicators for gingival recessions (GRs) in the lower anterior teeth of orthodontic patients post treatment and during a retention period of at least 5 years, compared to non-treated controls.
Material And Methods: Eighty-nine orthodontically treated patients who were recession-free before treatment were recruited. Demographic, cephalometric and occlusal records were retrieved before (T1) and after treatment (T2), and periodontal outcomes were clinically evaluated at least 5 years post retention (T3).

Objectives: This study aims to compare the clinical performance of 3D printed endocrowns (ECs) and prefabricated zirconia crowns (PZRCs) in restoring pulpotomized primary molars, over 3, 6, and 12 months.
Methods: Thirty pulpotomized mandibular primary molars in 16 children aged 4-8 years were randomized with a 1:1 allocation ratio into two groups: group (A), PZRCs, and group (B), 3D-printed ECs. All restorations were evaluated for esthetic, functional, and biological properties using FDI criteria at 3-, 6-, and 12-month intervals.
