Introduction/Objective. The class II malocclusion results in disbalanced facial harmony, primarily noticeable the profile and lower third. Aside from skeletal evaluation, orthodontic diagnosis treatment planning should include soft tissue analysis. aim of study was to identify outcomes II, division 1 patients determine if these changes are related different protocols. Methods. first group non-e...

background: this was a retrospective cephalometric study to develop a more precise estimation of soft tissue changes related to underlying tooth movment than simple relatioship betweenhard and soft tissues. materials and methods: the lateral cephalograms of 61 adult patients undergoing orthodontic treatment (31 = premolar extraction, 31 = nonextraction) were obtained, scanned and digitized befo...

The longitudinal growth and development of the soft tissue drape for boys and girls with long and short vertical patterns was examined from age 7 to 17 years. The sample was taken from the Denver Growth Study and consisted of 32 subjects who were selected on the basis of their percentage of lower anterior vertical face height. All subjects were of northern European ancestry, and none had underg...

The ongoing pursuit of aesthetic excellence in the field of implant therapy has incorporated prosthetic concepts in the early treatment-planning phase, as well as the previously discussed surgical concepts. The literature has addressed these prosthetic and laboratory approaches required to enhance and perfect the soft and hard tissue management (SHTM). After surgically providing an acceptable h...

Instability of the dental, skeletal and soft tissues is one of the most frequently associated problems with orthodontic correction of Class II division 1 malocclusion. Objective: To evaluate the stability of post-retention changes in skeletal type II orthodontic patients with Class II Division 1 malocclusion. Materials and Methods: Analysis of cephalometric films was performed for 29 patients w...

UNLABELLED For the successful single-tooth implant therapy in the esthetics zone, achieving an ideal peri-implant soft tissue profile is paramount. It can achieve by the manipulation of the provisional restorations. This clinical report demonstrate the selective pressure method and concave transmucosal profile of the provisional restorations to achieve the ideal and stable gingival profile in e...
