Orthodontic fixed patients used mouthwashes to control plaque chemically. Chemically have aftereffects in long-term use, which can staining impacts teeth and mouth mucosa, aggravations the working of taste feelings food, allergic reactions. Therefore, alternative mouthwash derived from herbs is required with expectation that risk smaller. Banana pineapple peel extract contain active antibacteri...

The present report describe the surgical therapy, clinical course, orthodontic treatment and morphological characteristics of an adenomatoid odontogenic tumor in the maxilla of an 11-year-old patient. The cystic tumor filled the maxillary sinus and involved a tooth. Marsupialization was accompanied by partial enucleation and applied traction to the affected tooth by a fixed orthodontic applianc...

Traumatized anterior teeth with subgingival fractures of the crown and root can be restored successfully after orthodontic extrusion. A technique is described which involves the use of a localized fixed appliance made of rectangular wire. The appliance is fabricated in the laboratory prior to bonding to the teeth with composite resin. The simple design of the appliance makes it easy to manage a...

Aim: The aim of this study was to quantify secretory immunoglobulin A (S-IgA) in the saliva of children with type 1 diabetes, asthma, no systemic disease, and no systemic disease but wearing a removable orthodontic appliance. Methods: The study recruited 116 children who had either type 1 diabetes or asthma, were systemically healthy, or were systemically healthy but wore a removable orthodonti...

Materials & Method: A cross sectional study was done in 212 orthodontic patients (age range 11-30 years) having fixed appliance for at least six months duration. A survey form based on ‘Dentition Status & Treatment Need, WHO’ was used to depict DMFT Index and prevalence of dental caries. A questionnaire was used to assess the practice of oral hygiene measures and food habits of the orthodontic ...

INTRODUCTION Maxillary canine-first premolar transposition (Mx.C.P1) is an uncommon dental positional anomaly that may create many orthodontic problems from both esthetic and functional points of view. OBJECTIVE In this report we show the orthodontic management of a case of Mx.C.P1 associated with bilateral maxillary lateral incisor agenesis and unilateral mandibular second premolar agenesis ...

In contemporary dental care an increased number of adult patients are seeking orthodontic treatment. In such adult patients, a combined orthodontic and other specialized therapy often offers the best options for achieving a predictable outcome to solve complex clinical problems. This case report demonstrates a combined therapy with orthodontic and implantprosthodontic treatment in a 26 years ol...

The introduction of digital workflows and their combination with miniscrew assisted appliances has opened new enthusiastic perspectives in modern orthodontics. However, all currently use for orthodontic tooth movement, the miniscrews are inserted first maxillary bone, often by means a surgical guide, then appliance is fabricated secured over different fixation mechanisms. By doing so, some adap...

BACKGROUND There is strong evidence that malocclusion and body posture are interdependent. The relationship between improvement of nasopharyngeal airway, correction of malocclusion by orthodontic treatment or orthognathic surgery, and changes in body posture were evaluated in several studies. The purpose of the present study was to analyze the effect of the orthodontic treatment with Twin-block...

Paresthesia of the lower lip is uncommon during orthodontic treatment. In the present case, paresthesia occurred during orthodontic leveling of an extruded mandibular left second molar. It was decided to remove this tooth from the appliance and allow it to relapse. A reanatomization was then performed by grinding. The causes and treatment options of this rare disorder are reviewed and discussed...
