Objectives: This study determined the prevalence and risks of definite sleep bruxism (SB) among children and adolescents presenting for orthodontic treatment.
Methods: This was a cross-sectional study of 7-16-year-old subjects pursuing orthodontic treatment for the first time. The presence or absence of SB was determined using an overnight mandibular movement monitoring inertial measurement sensor, worn by each participant for two consecutive nights.

Objective: This study constructed a new conditional generative adversarial network (CGAN) model to predict changes in lateral appearance following orthodontic treatment.
Methods: Lateral cephalometric radiographs of adult patients were obtained before (T1) and after (T2) orthodontic treatment. The expanded dataset was divided into training, validation, and test sets by random sampling in a ratio of 8:1:1.

The aim of this study was to clarify the relationship between the severity of condylar osteoarthritis (OA) and skeletal mandibular retrusion. Three-dimensional cephalometric characteristics of skeletal mandibular retrusion were analysed using computed tomography scans from 15 patients with OA and 15 without OA. Mandibular, dental, and condylar-related factors were evaluated.

The nasolabial angle (NLA) is one of the most critical parameters of the soft tissue profile when orthodontic treatment is required. The primary aim of this prospective cohort study was to compare the differences in the evaluation made on lateral photographs and cephalograms. The secondary aim was to evaluate the modifications of the NLA (nasal and labial components) after orthodontic treatment, including upper first premolar extraction.

Objectives: This non-randomised clinical study aimed to identify the phenotypic characteristics that distinguish responders from non-responders. Additionally, it sought to establish a predictive model for treatment response to obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) using mandibular advancement devices (MAD), based on the analysed phenotypic characteristics.
Material And Methods: This study, registered under identifier NCT05596825, prospectively analysed MAD treatment over 6 years using two-piece adjustable appliances according to a standardised protocol.
