Noninvasive Orthodontic Treatment For Class Ii Division 2 Adult Patient With 100% Deep Bite By Continuous Wire Mechanism, Yu-Hui Huang, Chun-Liang Kuo, I-Hua Liu, Chun-Hsiu Yang, Chung-Li Wang
Taiwanese Journal of Orthodontics
A characteristic of Class II Division 2 malocclusion is severe deep overbite and lingual inclination of the incisors. Deep overbite can be corrected by intrusion of anterior teeth, extrusion of posterior teeth, or a combination of both. Intrusion of the incisors should be the preferred treatment in nongrowing patients with anterior deep bites.
The patient is a 21-year-old female who had a skeletal Class II, hypodivergent facial pattern, Class II division 2 malocclusion, crowding dentition and traumatic 100% deep overbite. We extracted the two upper first premolars to relieve crowding, and the mandibular crowding was resolved by aligning the lower …

Taiwanese Journal of Orthodontics
Condylar resorption can be challenging to orthodontist when encountered during treatment. The clinical characteristics and cephalometric findings of a patient who experienced postoperative skeletal relapse caused by progressive condylar resorption (CR) are presented in this case report. The predisposing factors and treatment protocols of condylar resorption are also discussed. A 17-year-old female patient came to our hospital with chief complaint of no contact of anterior teeth. Cephalometric analysis shows that she is a patient with skeletal Class II hyper-divergent pattern caused by mandibular retrognathism. Flattened left condylar head was found on panoramic film suggesting possible condylar erosion in the past. …

Orthodontic Correction Of Insufficient Posterior Overjet With Microimplant-Assisted Rapid Palatal Expansion, Po-Yi Chen, Tai-Ting Lai, Kai-Wen Yu, Huey-Yuan Wang, Shih-Ying Lin
Taiwanese Journal of Orthodontics
Transverse maxillary deficiency is often characterized by insufficient posterior overjet or posterior cross bite and anterior crowding. However, arch expansion in adult patients has been considered to be problematic owing to its possible periodontal side effects, such as gingival recession and bone dehiscence. On the other hand, nonsurgical maxillary expansion of the palatal bone in young adults has been demonstrated to correct transverse maxillary deficiency. This report describes the case of an 18-year-old patient with mild transverse maxillary deficiency accompanied by crowding who underwent microimplant-assisted rapid palatal expansion (MARPE). Using microimplant-assisted rapid palatal expansion allowed relief of crowding and correction …

Taiwanese Journal of Orthodontics
Purpose: LeFort I osteotomy is used to correct and improve the maxillary hypoplasia in secondary cleft deformities. However, surgical complex and challenge would be the risk factor of postsurgical instability. This study compared surgical and postsurgical changes in maxillary and mandibular movements and stability in patients with cleft lip and palate (CLP) who underwent single- or two-piece LeFort I osteotomies.
Materials and Methods: Forty-five patients with CLP were included, of whom 30 and 15 received single- and two-piece LeFort I osteotomies, respectively. Cone-beam computed tomography was administered at three time points (T0: presurgery; T1: <1-month postsurgery; and T2: ≥1-year postsurgery) to evaluate surgical (T1–T0) and postsurgical (T2–T1) changes in maxillary and mandibular movement and stability. The overall movement, arch width, and relapse rate were measured and compared between the groups. Potential factors influencing skeletal stability were surgical change, segmental maxilla, cleft types, age, sex, and prior alveolar bone graft placement were analyzed.
Results: There revealed a significant difference …

Future Dental Journal
Abstract:
Objective: Atorvastatin (ATV) and melatonin have antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties and were suggested to have positive effects when used in periodontitis cases. In periodontitis, osteocalcin (OC) was suggested to be a bone formation marker. Regarding bone turnover in periodontium, gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) osteocalcin levels are more accurate than salivary or serum levels.

The Effect Of Doxorubicin And Thioridazine On Squamous Carcinoma Cell Line, Bassant Mahmoud Moustafa
Future Dental Journal
Abstract
Background: Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) is one of the most common cancers occupying the sixth position worldwide. PI3k/Akt signaling pathway plays a significant role in regulating diverse cellular functions. This includes cell growth, proliferation and survival via inhibition of apoptosis, transcription and protein synthesis. One of the most acknowledged and approved chemotherapeutic agents is Doxorubicin (DOX) which is a non- selective class I anthracycline. In spite of DOX being one of the most acknowledged chemotherapeutic agents, its use has been limited by its toxic side effects and the development of chemoresistance. Nowadays, Thioridazine (TZ) which is …
