Optimum force system for en-masse retraction of six maxillary anterior teeth in labial orthodontics

TLDR
The orthodontists generally do not recommend application of force system above the archwire level owing to additional attachments and patient’s discomfort, but the present research study focuses on this issue.

Estimation of the maximum permissible intrusive force for intrusion of a canine tooth: one-dimensional finite element study

TL;DR: In this paper , the maximum permissible intrusions of a canine tooth without any damage to the periodontal ligament (PDL) was computed using a finite element model of the tooth.
Journal ArticleDOI

Modern Anchorage Systems in Orthodontics

TL;DR: A comprehensive review of the use of mini-screw implants for orthodontic applications can be found in this paper , where the authors discuss the historical view, clinical uses, benefits, and drawbacks of the mini screw implants used to obtain a temporary anchorage.
Journal ArticleDOI

Estimation of the maximum permissible intrusive force for intrusion of a canine tooth: one-dimensional finite element study

TL;DR: In this paper, the maximum permissible intrusions of a canine tooth without any damage to the periodontal ligament (PDL) was computed using finite element analysis. And the authors proved that the 10g-force (gf) value is safe without any damaging to PDL tissues.

An experimental apparatus for the simulation of three-dimensional movements in orthodontics

TL;DR: An apparatus for the study of three-dimensional force systems and the resulting movements during orthodontic treatment is presented, which consists of two force-torque transducers capable of recording both forces and torques simultaneously, in all spatial directions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Adverse effects of orthodontic treatment: A clinical perspective.

TL;DR: Orthodontic treatment is associated with a number of adverse effects, such as root resorption, pain, pulpal changes, periodontal disease, and temporomandibular dysfunction, which should be aware of.
Journal ArticleDOI

Application of the orthodontic measurement and simulation system (OMSS) in orthodontics

TL;DR: It was found that the force systems produced by the straight wire and by the conventional uprighting spring showed a severe extrusive force component which may lead to occlusal trauma, and three mechanical systems available for uprighting molars were evaluated.
