This case report describes an orthodontic treatment and maxillary premolar extraction without orthognathic surgery for a 18-year old man. Maximum anchorage is needed for upper anterior retraction by using Temporary Anchorage Device (TAD’s). The use of IME and ISW unilateral MEAW was important to relieve upper and lower anterior crowding. After treatment, the patient had a better profile, adequate overjet and overbite. This case report demonstrates that a minimally invasive treatment can successfully correct a severe skeletal Class II malocclusion with large overjet.","PeriodicalId":433426,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Dental Science Research Review & Reports","volume":"61 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121361108","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}

To date, few systematic reviews have evaluated the epidemiology of various treatment modalities in endodontics. The objective of this study is to analyse the epidemiology of endodontics as presented in various publications. Methodology :Clinical, experimental and review reports were searched in PubMed, Cochrane databases and Google Scholar for scientific literature in November 2019, using the search phrase “endodontic epidemiology” Results : Of the eight potentially relevant publications, six of which were randomised controlled trials, with no statistically significant results, one was a systematic review and the other was a cross-sectional study. Conclusion: Endodontic epidemiological studies are being conducted, however the results are not statistically significant. This does not necessarily mean that the results of such studies obtained cannot be applied clinically.","PeriodicalId":433426,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Dental Science Research Review & Reports","volume":"12 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115188148","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 purpose of this study was to investigate whether chronologic age, dental age and skeletal developmental stage at onset of orthodontic treatment have changed during the last few decades in the same manner. In addition, to find out whether correlations exist between these ages. Such changes might have implications on clinical orthodontic practice. Methods: Panoramic and lateral cephalometric radiographs of 300 adolescents (139 males, 161 females) who began their orthodontic treatment during the years 1990-1992 or 2010-2012 (152 and 148 subjects, respectively) were examined. Chronologic, dental and skeletal ages were determined and compared between the two groups and correlations between these ages were calculated. Results: Mean chronologic age was 12.26 ± 1.22 years during 1990-1992 and 12.63 ± 1.64 during 2010-2012 (p=0.028). Mean dental age was 12.27 years ± 1.88 during 1990-1992 and 13.02 ± 2.20 during 2010-2012 (p=0.002). Mean skeletal developmental stage of subjects was 2.68 ± 1.60 during 1990-1992 and 2.99 ± 1.75 during 2010-2012 (p>0.1). Significant correlations were found between chronologic, dental and skeletal ages. Conclusions: Although no significant change of skeletal developmental stage upon commencing orthodontic treatment has occurred over the last two decades, both chronologic and dental ages have increased, particularly for females. There is significant correlation between chronologic, dental and skeletal ages for the entire group, particularly for females.","PeriodicalId":433426,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Dental Science Research Review & Reports","volume":"41 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121551975","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}
