OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to verify the concordance of the measurement values when the same cephalometric analysis method was used for two-dimensional (2D) cephalometric radiography and three-dimensional computed tomography (3D CT), and to identify which 3D Frankfort horizontal (FH) plane was the most concordant with FH plane used for cephalometric radiography. MATERIALS AND METHOD...

Occlusal plane canting could be a challenge for orthodontists due to complexity of mechanics and uncertainity treatment. Earlier, before advent TADS in orthodontics, was treated by complex using elastics, asymmetric bends archwires, bite blocks, high pull headgears, orthognathic surgeries etc. With TADs, its become easier treat occlusal even some severe cases. The present case report illustrate...

Introdouction: Impacted and partially erupted third molars can cause various symptoms and pathologies. The aim of this study was to determine the association between commonly observed pathological conditions and the impaction depth of lower third molar teeth. Materials and methods: In this retrospective study, 370 panoramic radiographs including 724 lower third molars were evaluated to asses...

a fundamental assumption in prosthetic dentistry is that the axis-orbital plane will usually be parallel to the horizontal reference plane. most articulator systems have incorporated this concept into their designs and use orbitale as the anterior reference point for transferring the vertical position of the maxilla to the articulator. clinical observations of cantonese patients suggest that in...
