Treatment of a horizontal open bite with an invisible multiloop appliance in a girl with tooth trauma.

29 Sep 2009 This case report presents the treatment of a girl with a Class II horizontal open bite and severe crowding with an invisible appliance. She had been in a severe traffic accident at 5 years 10 months of age. Her teeth, especially the mandibular right ... Read more...

Titanium miniplate as anchorage to close a premolar space by means of mesial movement of the maxillary molars.

29 Sep 2009 We report the orthodontic treatment of a woman who was congenitally missing teeth 15, 47, and 48. A titanium miniplate was used as anchorage to close the space of the missing premolar by mesial movement of the maxillary posterior teeth into the ... Read more...

Efficiency of a skeletonized distal jet appliance supported by miniscrew anchorage for noncompliance maxillary molar distalization.

29 Sep 2009 INTRODUCTION: Conventional anchorage appliances rely exclusively on intraoral anchorage for noncompliance molar distalization. The partial coverage of the palate, in particular, often results in compromised oral hygiene. An innovative alternative ... Read more...
