Guto de Oliveira e Silva, Thiago Santos Mendes, Diego Patrik Alves Carneiro, Carolina Carmo de Menezes, Silvia Amelia Scudeler Vedovello, Ana Paula Terossi de Godoi

Summary: The study found that individuals with skeletal class II and maxillary atresia have greater lingual inclination of maxillary teeth, while those with skeletal class II without atresia have less lingual inclination of mandibular molars. Lower premolars in skeletal class III malocclusion individuals with atresia show a more negative inclination compared to others.

Histomorphometric and CBCT comparison of osseointegration around orthodontic titanium miniscrews coated with different nanoparticles: An in-vivo animal study

Mahmoud M. Fathy Aboelmahasen, Samer Salim Othman, Ahmed S. Abo Dena, Monira Zhran, Mohamed Ma, Mahmoud Taha El-Destawy, Ahmed Mohamed Bilal

Summary: This study assessed the quality of osseointegration of surface modified titanium miniscrews in the maxilla of rabbits. The results showed that Ag/HA-coated miniscrews demonstrated the highest antimicrobial activity and bone area fill. In the posterior peri-implant area, Ag/HA-coated miniscrews showed the highest osseointegration values.

Invisible treatment with lingual appliance for the correction of an adult class II subdivision with asymmetrical Wilson and Spee curves: A case report

Enrico Albertini, Paolo Albertini, Anna Colonna, Luca Lombardo

Summary: This article describes the successful treatment of a class II subdivision malocclusion using an invisible lingual appliance. The combination of interradicular palatal mini-screws and inner unilateral class II auxiliaries resulted in a dento-alveolar correction, allowing for a completely invisible appliance. Additionally, proper torque expression and set-up overcorrections normalized the inclination of buccal sectors and significantly improved the buccal corridors. This case report demonstrates that class II division 2 subdivision malocclusion in adult patients can be successfully treated without surgery using a completely invisible appliance, while highlighting the importance of mini-screws, auxiliaries, and set-up overcorrections for optimal results.
