The Effectiveness Of Anterior Torque Control By Clear Aligners In Extraction And Non-extraction Cases : Systematic Review

Introduction: Clear aligner treatment has gained popularity in recent years. Accurate torque expression of the upper incisors is crucial for orthodontic treatment outcomes but remains challenging in invisible orthodontic treatment. Objectives: This systematic review aims to evaluate the existing literature and critical...

Anterior intrusion mechanics for adult deep bite correction: a systematic review of randomised controlled trials.

BACKGROUND Deep bite, defined as excessive vertical overlap of the lower incisors, remains a challenging malocclusion in adults. The existing literature largely focuses on growing patients, with limited high-quality evidence on treatment outcomes in skeletally mature individuals. OBJECTIVES To systematically evaluate...

Methods of incisor inclination control during the non-accelerated retraction of upper anterior teeth with fixed orthodontic appliances: a systematic review and meta-analysis

Protrusion of the maxillary incisors represents a frequent clinical challenge in orthodontic treatment. Current systematic reviews are limited in range and methods employed, while individual trials lack consensus on the most effective mechanics for retraction. This systematic review aimed to evaluate the effectiveness...

Transverse Dentoalveolar Changes with Clear Aligners in Mixed Dentition: A Systematic Review with Exploratory Meta-Analysis

Background: Transverse maxillary discrepancies during mixed dentition can negatively affect occlusal development and facial harmony. Clear aligners have been increasingly proposed as an interceptive alternative to traditional expansion approaches, but the extent and nature of the transverse dentoalveolar changes associ...
