It is suggested that selected panoramic observations may provide supplementary information during case assessment, but should not be interpreted as standalone predictive criteria for estimating spontaneous space closure in children requiring P1M extraction.
Aims: This study aimed to evaluate the craniofacial effects of non-extraction class II camouflage treatment using maxillary distalization and intermaxillary class II elastics in late adolescent patients.Methods: This retrospective study included 26 patients (20 females, 6 males; mean age: 15.2±1.3 years) with skeletal...

The first permanent mandibular molar (FPM) is the first tooth to emerge. It is the most effective oral masticatory unit because of its large occlusal surface and function in proper occlusion. This study aimed to describe the prevalence of PFM loss and status among adult patients in Tripoli, Libya. Materials and Methods...

Objective
To evaluate treatment-related changes in tooth widths, ratios, and dental arch changes in patients treated with mandibular incisor extraction treatment (MIET).
Methods
Pre- (T1) and post-treatment (T2) digital dental casts of 24 patients (13 female, 11 male; mean age: 16.58±3.81 years) who underwent MIET we...

This study evaluated the effects of different surgical occlusion designs, particularly posterior open contacts, on dental movement, skeletal stability, and occlusal outcomes in orthognathic surgery. A total of 49 skeletal Class III patients were classified into tripod contact (TRI) and non-tripod contact (NTR) grou...

With the growing demand for orthodontic treatment among adults, a clear understanding of the age-related dentoalveolar changes has become increasingly important for accurate diagnosis, treatment planning, and long-term retention strategies. This study aims to characterize dentoalveolar changes in individuals with norma...

INTRODUCTION
Maxillary molar distalization is widely used for space gain and anterior retraction. However, gingival recession may occur around the maxillary second molar following distalization, and the tooth movement factors associated with changes in clinical crown length (CCL) remain unclear. This study investigated...
