This scoping review is intended to synthesize the techniques proposed to model the tooth‐
periodontal ligament‐bone complex (TPBC), while also evaluating the suggested …

Background Despite the popularity of clear aligner treatment, the effect of the thickness of
these aligners has not been fully investigated. The objective of this study was to assess the …

Excessive forces may cause root resorption and insufficient forces would introduce no effect
in orthodontics. The objective of this study was to investigate the optimal orthodontic forces …

Bone plates have been widely used for the treatment of bone defects and trauma. These
fixation plates can stabilize or replace bone tissue to restore appropriate load-bearing …

Introduction Although with increasing popularity due to aesthetic appeal and comfort, clear
aligners (CAs) are facing challenges in efficacy and predictability. Advancement in the …

Aim To investigate the stress distribution in an immature maxillary incisor and the same tooth
after simulated revitalization with deposition of tubular dentine or cementum by finite …

Background The purpose of the study was to measure the forces delivered by direct-printed
aligners (DPA) in the vertical dimension and compare the force profile with traditional …

Introduction Orthodontically induced inflammatory root resorption (OIIRR) constitutes an
undesirable risk connected to orthodontic treatment. Finite element analysis (FEA) is a …

Periodontal ligament (PDL) is mainly composed of collagen fiber bundles, and the content of
collagen fiber is an important factor affecting the mechanical properties of PDL. Based on …

Introduction: Open gingival embrasure (OGE) is a common complication in adults following
clear aligner therapy and the influence of gingival or alveolar bone biotype on OGE is of …
