“…Only one activation was Crossbites solved by a single device Copyright © 2021 Contemporary Pediatric Dentistry required due to its effectiveness and, as the type of movement was as torque-like, the crowns went forward increasing the axial inclinations of those teeth. [23][24] Reduction in the negative discrepancy of the maxillary arch after RME is well documented in the literature due to the increase in the perimeter of the arch. 5,9,25,26,27 Furthermore, the expansion of mandibular arch widths can be explained by the presence of altered dental contacts, which could incline posterior mandibular teeth buccally.…”

Anterior and posterior crossbites are malocclusions in the sagittal and transversal dimensions, respectively. As self-correction is rare in these alterations, early interception is recommended to allow normal occlusion and facial development. This case report aimed to discuss the treatment of an eight-year-old boy with an increased inferior facial third, who was submitted for rapid maxillary expansion with a modified bonded appliance to solve both transversal and anteroposterior deficiencies. The correctionof both malocclusions was achieved within 21 days. The advantages of this procedure were to gain space in both arches, enlarge the maxillary arch, and improve nasal breathing. The interceptive therapy, as well as a well-planned appliance, proved to be effective and important for retrieving the patient ́s normal condition and quality of life.

“…This modification results from the experience of bone deposition in the compressed area by osteoblasts, while the opposite area undergoes bone repositioning as a result of osteoclast activity.12 Furthermore, the biomechanical process used is triggered by the appropriate amount of pressure, which is approximately 20 grams / cm2, sccording to Schwarz (1931).6 Therefore, occasions where the compressive force exerted is too low, feature the absence of changes, while the presence of too large exertion is accompanied by imperfect changes, which leads to pathological states. 13 The basis of tooth movement with removable orthodontic appliances lies in the components, which is estimated by calculating the diameter, wire length, and the contact position between the tooth surface and the wire. This possibly determines the amount of force required to ensure a movement,5 hence the creation of improperly calculated devices have a high tendency to provide an undesirable force.…”

Teeth position shifting in the jaw arch has been achieved for a long time, using active removable orthodontic appliances. This technique has faced some technological advancement as seen with the creation of Invisalign transparent aligner systems, which features digitally conducted treatment plans. The outcome is, therefore, stored, analyzed, and modified through computer devices, using a 3-dimensional display. Meanwhile, the advantage of transparent aligners is seen in the ease of use, as manual adjustments are not needed during the treatment progression, as observed with the conventional removable appliances. At the initiation of treatment with digital 3-dimension, teeth movement is determined using a computer device, characterized by enhanced aesthetic physical appearance. This increases patients’ interest in the subsequent use of appliance to produce the desired results, within the specified time frame. This literature study is, therefore, aimed at creating an insight on technological developments in the use of active orthodontic treatment, alongside conventional removable appliances.

“…Malocclusion can be defined as the deflection from the normal relation of the teeth to the other teeth in the same arch and/or to the teeth in the opposing arch (White et al, 1976). However, many variations are possible within a state of normality.…”

The aim of this study was to retrospectively determine the prevalence of severe external root resorption (Score 4 according to Malmgren et al.), in maxillary incisors, during fixed orthodontic treatment and to evaluate the possible predisposing factors for root resorption. Material and Methods: The treatment records of 7000 patients who have been treated between years 1990 and 2019 at the Department of Orthodontics Faculty of Dentistry Marmara University were examined to determine the prevalence and the predisposing factors of external root resorption. The following data was retrieved from the patients' records: age at the beginning of the treatment, gender, root morphology, overjet, overbite, treatment modality (extraction, non-extraction), treatment duration, buccal and palatal alveolar bone thickness for the maxillary incisors, and amount of movement of the incisal root apices and incisal edges. The relationship between root resorption and the predisposing factors was assessed using chi square and independent t-tests. Results: The prevalence of severe external root resorption was 3.23%, and the results have demonstrated significant difference between the groups for the variables: treatment modality (extractions), increased treatment duration, cortical thickness of the alveolar bone, and amount of incisor movement at the end of the treatment. Conclusion: It can be concluded that extractions, increased treatment duration, thin alveolar bone, and excessive incisor movement represent risk factors for severe root resorption in maxillary incisors following orthodontic treatment.
