Indirect bonding is a preferred approach for many orthodontists since it takes less time than direct bonding. The merging of computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM) allowed for the digital formation of transfer trays. This study aimed to determine the accuracy of CAD/CAM indirect three-dimensional printed bonding trays. Materials and methods: 140 teeth were planned to be bonded by 3D printed transfer tray. The intraoral scanner was first used to produce a stereolithographic (STL) file for virtual brackets location, and then another scan was taken after the brackets were bonded. Software was used to measure position deviation of bracket placements by superimposing virtual STL files and post bonding STL files. Results: To see if the mean transfer error was statistically within the selected accuracy limits of 0.5 mm for linear measurements, a one-sample t-test was used. For linear measurements, P-values of less than 0.05 indicated differences within the accepted deviation limits. Conclusions: CAD/CAM transfer trays for indirect bonding have high transfer accuracy in all kinds of teeth.","PeriodicalId":305086,"journal":{"name":"Egyptian Orthodontic Journal","volume":"9 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123864071","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The stability of miniscrew implants (MIs) is determined by the clinical, biomechanical and biochemical assessments. Purpose: The aim of this study was to evaluate the levels of Osteopontin(OPN) and Periostin (PSN)in peri-miniscrew implant crevicular fluid (PMICF) at different time intervals. Subjects and methods: Eight skeletal Class III patients with maxillary deficiency were selected. Sixteen MIs (Hubit co, Korea) of 1.6 mm diameter and10 mm length were placed bilaterally between the maxillary second premolars and first molars. Additional sixteen MIs of 1.4 mm diameter and 8 mm length were inserted between mandibular canines and first premolars. A fixed posterior bite plate was used to facilitate bite jumping. 250-300g force per side was immediately delivered by intermaxillary closed coil springs (Ortho Technology, TAD coil spring, USA). PMICF samples were obtained before loading(T1); on day one(T2), two(T3), seven(T4) and on day 30 (T5) after force application. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) kits were used to determine OPN and PSN levels. Results: The percentage change in levels of OPN and PSN broadly showed a decrease upon loading of MIs. However, at the end of observation period, there was no statistically significant difference between T1and T5. Conclusions: The OPN and PSN levels varied around MIs as a result of force application and may be used as biomarkers for assessing implant stability throughout loading periods. Immediate loading of MIs with intermaxillary closed coil springs for treatment of skeletal Class III patient did not impair implant stability.","PeriodicalId":305086,"journal":{"name":"Egyptian Orthodontic Journal","volume":"25 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-03-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129368448","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, one of the drawbacks of LLLT, is the high frequency of patient recall. The aim of the study was to evaluate and compare the amount of molar anchorage loss accompanying canine retraction, by employing two LLLT protocols, involving a high and a low application frequency. Materials and Methods: Sixteen patients were enrolled, in which the therapeutic extraction of maxillary 1st premolars was required for orthodontic treatment, with subsequent canine retraction. Patients were equally and randomly divided into 2 groups. In Group A, LLLT was randomly administered to one side of the maxillary arch on days 0, 3, 7, 14, and then every 2 weeks, while in Group B, one side of the maxillary arch was randomly selected for LLLT application every 3 weeks. The administered LLLT was a Diode laser with a 980 nm wavelength. Canine retraction was carried out using closed-coil springs, with 150 grams of force, and the amount of mesial molar movement was checked every 3 weeks, over the 12-week study period. Results: Equivalent amounts of mesial molar movements have been displayed with and without LLLT application, in both study groups. Also, no significant differences have been documented between the laser sides in groups A and B. Conclusion: Molar anchorage has not been augmented by LLLT, whether applied with a high frequency, or with less frequent applications coinciding with the follow-up visits.","PeriodicalId":305086,"journal":{"name":"Egyptian Orthodontic Journal","volume":"3 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-03-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133481841","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
