When the IMPA was 90°, the crown experienced a labial moment. The labial root control ridge (RCR) increased the labial moment of the crown, while the lingual RCR and labial attachment (LA) increased the lingual moment. The lingual fossa excavating holes (LFEH) group also increased the labial moment. The lingual RCR enhanced the lingual movement of the crown, whereas the LFEH promoted labial movement. During the intrusion of MAT, a comprehensive design incorporating labial intrusive attachments, labial RCR, lingual RCR, and LFEH can be employed to ensure true vertical intrusion of the lower anterior teeth.</p><p><strong>Conclusion: </strong>This study revealed the biomechanical changes during intrusion, and innovatively designed the LFEH, thereby promoting the development of novel orthodontic techniques and improving clinical treatment outcomes.</p>","PeriodicalId":56071,"journal":{"name":"Progress in Orthodontics","volume":"26 1","pages":"11"},"PeriodicalIF":4.8,"publicationDate":"2025-03-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11891119/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143588357","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Class III skeletal disharmony in growing patients.</p><p><strong>Methods: </strong>A four-rounds modified Delphi method was conducted. A steering committee performed a literature selection and compiled a list of 33 statements. An international panel of 25 experts in orthodontics agreed to participate. In each round, panelists were asked to rate their level of agreement with each statement using a 5-point Likert scale and provide comments. Statements that reached consensus were either accepted or rephrased. Statements that did not reach consensus were either rephrased, rejected, or split into two statements or merged with another.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>After the four rounds, 24 statements achieved consensus while 9 were rejected.

The study generated 24 consensus statements across three key domains. While the Delphi method provides valuable expert opinions, future studies, including randomized controlled trials, are needed to confirm these findings and address remaining uncertainties. Such efforts will aid in refining orthodontic treatment protocols and enhancing patient outcomes.</p>","PeriodicalId":56071,"journal":{"name":"Progress in Orthodontics","volume":"26 1","pages":"9"},"PeriodicalIF":4.8,"publicationDate":"2025-03-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11872959/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143538205","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
