On the third month, the student will receive a “pre-collect” letter from MCC’s national collection agency giving the student one last attempt to clear their account and bring it to a zero balance. If, after the third month, the student still shows an outstanding amount due, the student’s account will be termed delinquent and as accepted, upon registering, by the student, in the “Obligations Terms and Conditions” agreement, turned over to a collection agency, attorney and/ or credit bureau. The student will be held responsible for collection costs, including any fees charged by the collection agency and attorney’s fees in addition to their outstanding balance.","PeriodicalId":77593,"journal":{"name":"Prevenzione & assistenza dentale","volume":"13 2 1","pages":"32-3"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-08-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1002/9781119549000.ch14","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43993204","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}

Samples of plaque were obtained from lingual surfaces of tooth 46 at the first appointment (T1), the day before surgical intervention (T2), during intermaxillary fixation (T3), at the removal of the orthodontic appliance (T4) and after one year from the removal of the fixed appliance (T5).

During intermaxillary fixation (T3), a slight increase of the plaque index was evidenced. Between T3 and T4 another reduction of the plaque index (that reached 8%) was noticed.
