This article presents a summary of incident management guidelines for traumatically injured teeth during orthodontic treatment. In addition, treatment of a 17-year-old patient with traumatic extrusion and palatal displacement of the permanent maxillary incisors while undergoing active orthodontic treatment is reported.
This article presents a non-extraction orthodontic treatment case using mini-screws and a modified palatal anchorage plate (MPAP) to intrude the maxillary posterior teeth, and distalize the whole arch dentition and control the extrusion of the maxillary posterior dentition during distalization.
During the mixed dentition stage, adolescents experience rapid dental and skeletal development. Unfortunately, many of them do not visit the orthodontist early enough and miss out on the opportunity to take advantage of preventive and interceptive orthodontic treatment. This article describes the management of regaining leeway space and correcting anterior crossbite using a modified maxillary molar distalizing appliance.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
