Objective: This retrospective study aims to assess the predictability of Overbite (OVB) reduction and Curve of Spee (COS) levelling in patients with deep bite malocclusion treated with Clear Aligner Therapy (CAT). The research evaluates the accuracy of the prescribed movements in growing and non-growing patients.
Materials And Methods: Thirty-six patients treated with Invisalign from January 2018 using SmartTrack were included.

Introduction: This randomized clinical trial compared arch dimensional changes, dentoskeletal changes, and the rate of overbite correction in deep bite adults treated with fixed appliances and either maxillary incisor bite turbos (IBT) or canine bite turbos (CBT).
Materials And Methods: Forty-six deep bite subjects treated with fixed appliances were randomized into IBT (n = 23) and CBT (n = 23) groups. Changes in intercanine width (ICW), arch height (AH), and Little's Irregularity Index (LII) were analyzed from before treatment (T) to 3 months after aligning with 0.

Background: Anterior disc displacement (ADD) is the most common type of temporomandibular joint (TMJ) internal derangement and may lead to condylar resorption (CR) during the adolescence period, but the specific malocclusion associated with ADD and CR remains unclear.
Objective: This study aimed to investigate the malocclusion associated with TMJ ADD and CR in adolescents.
Methods: This cross-sectional study included a clinical examination of adolescent patients aged 11-19 years.

An effective orthodontic treatment should not only aim for satisfactory occlusal outcomes but also consider its impact on facial esthetics. The study aims to evaluate and compare the perception of profile esthetics of skeletal Class II patients treated with two orthodontic modalities: (1) Two-phase approach involving functional appliances followed by fixed appliances with premolar extractions, or (2) One-phase approach using fixed appliances with premolar extractions. Additionally, the study aims to evaluate the correlation between the perceived esthetics and the corresponding cephalometric measurements.
