Fractal Analysis to Detect Surface Roughness Changes After Fatique Loading in the Canine Mandibular Incisor - A Pilot Study
… in ex vivo root structure from fatigue loaded mandibular central incisors of canine (hound) specimens. After fatigue loading experimental teeth, microcomputed tomography, was used to obtain 3-dimensional data of both the experimental and control teeth. Computer software was used to develop …

Overbite Correction and Smile Esthetics
… used to reduce deep overbite: maxillary incisor intrusion using an intrusion arch and posterior tooth eruption using an anterior bite plate. Pre-treatment, post-overbite correction and post-treatment records were gathered from 32 patients who presented with deep overbite malocclusions to …

Long-Term Changes in the Dental Occlusion of Subjects Treated Orthodontically
… magnitude (Little RM. Stability and relapse of mandibular anterior alignment: University of Washington studies. Semin Orthod 1999;5:191-204). The intent of this study was to quantify the posttreatment dental changes that occurred over approximately a quarter-century in a cohort of women who had …

Prevalence and Rationale of Orthodontic Extractions at Loma Linda University
… statistically significant differences in mandibular incisor to mandibular plane angle (L1-MP), interincisal angle, and maxillary incisor to Nasion-A point distance (U1-NA) [p < 0.05]. Furthermore, regardless of the degree of crowding, greater than 5 mm mandibular incisor to Nasion-B point …

Efficacy of Temporary Fixed Retention Following Comprehensive Orthodontic Treatment
… years) in cases (A) treated with temporary fixed mandibular retention plus Hawley retainers compared to (B) a similar group retained with just removable retention (standard Hawley type retainers alone). Fixed retainers were removed after having been in place for about 2.5 years. Following this …

Influence of Tooth Crown Size on Malocclusion
… have found that the mesiodistal widths of the mandibular incisor teeth are significantly larger in subjects with anterior crowding, while others have been unable to support this conclusion. Study designs often have been confounded by combining the sexes, which confuses sexual dimorphism with …

Kinetics and Energetics of Feeding Behaviors in Daubentonia madagascariensis
… increased the magnitude of bite forces on the mandibular incisor. 3) The energetic costs of feeding were positively correlated with the toughness of foods. 4) The rate of energetic costs (J/s) incurred during the processing and mastication of whole nuts is not significantly greater than the …

A Randomised Clinical Trial of the Effectiveness of Orthodontic Treatment between the 0.018-inch and the 0.022-inch Slot Conventional Ligation Bracket Systems
… CR-EVAL), Peer Assessment Rating (PAR) scores, incisor inclination, anchorage loss, and patient perception; and (2) biological side effects of treatment as evaluated by the amount of maxillary central incisor root resorption after nine months from the start of …

A Radiographic Analysis of Variance in Lower Incisor Enamel Thickness
… was to help predict the enamel thickness of mandibular incisors. At least two direct digital periapical radiographs were made for each of the 80 subjects. Radiographs were scaled to control for magnification errors using dental study models and computer software. Mesiodistal incisor width and …
