Measurements were taken in four bilateral MBS sites buccal to the mandibular second molar; tangent to the distal surface (7D), distobuccal cusp tip (7CD), buccal groove (7S) and mesiobuccal cusp tip (7CM). The transversal MBS midpoint was also determined, and the maximum angulation from the transversal MBS midpoint was extracted relative to the true vertical plane. Subsequently, the distance from the MBS midpoint to the MC was calculated at this angulation. Descriptive and inferential statistical analyses were performed at p<0.05.Results: Significant correlations were observed among several variables and age, sex and bilateral asymmetry (p<0.05). The MBS transversal width and the distance from the MBS midpoint to the MC progressively increased in the posterior direction while the angulation decreased.Conclusion: The most appropriate micro-implant insertion location compared to the other MBS investigated sites, in the absence of impacted third molars, is adjacent to the distal surface of the second molar. This finding is consistent across all age groups, sexes, and insertion sides. However, due to the demonstrated variability, taking a CBCT scan prior to mini-implant insertion might be considered to minimize the risk of injury to the inferior alveolar nerve.","PeriodicalId":37013,"journal":{"name":"Turkish Journal of Orthodontics","volume":"38 4","pages":"199-205"},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2025-12-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12758433/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145858114","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

After thermoforming, surface roughness increased significantly in the Taglus and Lumex-G groups, whereas the Atmos and Duran groups maintained greater surface stability.

In the coronal zygomatic section (CZS), upper interzygomatic distance and lower interzygomatic distances (LID), orbital distance (OD), alveolar distances (AD), and dental distances (DD), as well as nasal cavity width (NCW) and molar basal bone angle, were assessed.

Greater anterior maxillary rotation occurred with the face mask, while reduced rotation was observed with the Carrière Motion® III. Lower facial height decreased slightly but significantly in the Carrière Motion® III group, and increased in the face mask group. Overjet and molar relationship improved significantly in both groups. The UL-E line distance decreased in the face mask group, while the Carrière Motion® III showed no significant soft tissue changes.Conclusion: The null hypothesis was rejected. The two appliances had different effects; however, the Carrière Motion® III proved effective for early Class III treatment and may be considered an alternative, particularly for patients with social concerns about extraoral traction.","PeriodicalId":37013,"journal":{"name":"Turkish Journal of Orthodontics","volume":"38 3","pages":"149-160"},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2025-09-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12485644/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145201597","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
