Journal ArticleDOI

PAX9 and MSX1 transcription factor genes in non-syndromic dental agenesis.

TL;DR: Common variants located out of the DNA binding domain of the two PAX9 and MSX1 genes can also be related to tooth agenesis.
Journal ArticleDOI

In vitro analysis of shear bond strength and adhesive remnant index of different metal brackets.

TL;DR: Among the evaluated brackets, the one with the lowest mean shear bond strength values was MorelliTM, and general evaluation of groups indicated that a greater number of bond failure occurred at the enamel/adhesive interface.
Journal ArticleDOI

Association among pain, masticatory performance, and proinflammatory cytokines in crevicular fluid during orthodontic treatment

TL;DR: The masticatory performance of orthodontic patients is significantly reduced only during the period of greatest pain, and these alterations did not correlate with any measurement of interleukin 1-beta or prostaglandin E2 in the crevicular fluid, suggesting that these solitary measurements are inadequate to predict the temporary pain and masticatories limitations experienced by patients undergoing orthodentic treatment.
Journal ArticleDOI

Pain, masticatory performance and swallowing threshold in orthodontic patients

TL;DR: The orthodontic appliances did not interfere in the size of the particles that would be swallowed, even in the presence of pain, and the swallowing threshold was not affected.
Journal ArticleDOI

Evaluation of stress biomarkers and electrolytes in saliva of patients undergoing fixed orthodontic treatment.

TL;DR: The present data indicate that orthodontic patients are under emotional stress only during the period of higher pain experience, which could also disrupt the masticatory performance.
