Crowding of mandibular incisors
TLDR
It was found in the present study that, in general, the differences and correlations of variables were more constant and significant in females than in males, and the overbite was found to be, on the average, less in the untreated group in males as well as in females.About:

Journal ArticleDOI
Stability and relapse of mandibular anterior alignment-first premolar extraction cases treated by traditional edgewise orthodontics.
TL;DR: Assessment at least 10 years postretention of sixty-five cases previously treated in the permanent-dentition stage with first-premolar extractions, traditional edgewise mechanics, and retention revealed considerable variation among patients.
Journal ArticleDOI
An examination of dental crowding and its relationship to tooth size and arch dimension
TL;DR: The results of this study suggest that consideration be given to those treatment techniques which increase dental arch length rather than reduce tooth mass.
Journal ArticleDOI
A biometric study of tooth size and dental crowding
TL;DR: The sum of mesiodistal widths of teeth, in addition to the arch length analysis, should be considered in formulating an orthodontic treatment plan for patients with good tooth alignment and patients with crowded dental arches.
Journal ArticleDOI
Changes in the maxillary and mandibular tooth size-arch length relationship from early adolescence to early adulthood. A longitudinal study.
TL;DR: The results of the regression analysis indicated that a number of dentofacial variables are associated with the changes in the maxillary and mandibular TSALD--for example, the mesiodistal diameter of different teeth and theChanges in anterior and posterior facial heights.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nonextraction orthodontic therapy: posttreatment dental and skeletal stability.
TL;DR: Overall long-term stability of nonextraction orthodontic treatment was found to be relatively good, suggesting that the amount and direction of facial growth may have been partially responsible for maturational changes seen during the postretention period.

The “three M's”: Muscles, malformation, and malocclusion
TL;DR: It is imperative that the orthodontist appraise muscle activity and that he conduct his Orthodontic therapy in such a manner that the finished result reflects a balance between the structural changes obtained and the functional forces acting on the teeth and investing tissues at that time.

Changes in the form and dimensions of dental arches resulting from orthodontic treatment
TL;DR: The Second Reunion Meeting of the Department of Graduate Orthodontia, University of Illinois, Chicago, Illinois, March 1951 as mentioned in this paper, was the first meeting of the present conference.

The cuspid and its function in retention
TL;DR: It is my purpose, tonight, to offer for your consideration a very informal discussion of one of the authors' mutual headaches, which might be referred to as “the groove.”
