subject in the communities of researchers. Most authors consider occlusal anomalies as a fundamental factor in causing the symptoms, while other studies suggest that occlusal dysfunctions represent only one of the numerous factors associated with temporomandibular joint disorder (Landi et al 2012; Pullinger et al 1993; Sipila et al 2012). The occlusal factors must be analyzed both static and dy...

introduction: the objective of this study was to gather information about normal occlusion and arch dimensions in the primary teeth of the children belonging to an iranian population. methods: this descriptive cross-sectional study was performed on 68 children from the city of mashhad in the 3-5 age range. dental arch dimensions, interrelationships of primary canine and second molars, overbite ...

Objectives: To investigate the effects of teeth apical stress changes caused by teeth missing and its restoration on the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) stresses. Materials and Methods: The apical stresses measured from photo-elastic experiments (2Kg centric vertical loading to different kinds of occlusion separately) were applied to the established three-dimension finite elemental model. The str...

Place duration of study: Department Orthodontic, Ayub Dental College from 1st July 2022 to 31st December 2022. Methodology: One hundred seventy patients with normal, additional insignificant corridors were enrolled. The Frankfort Horizo...

Visual 2.5D perception involves understanding the semantics and geometry of a scene through reasoning about object relationships with respect to viewer. However, existing works in visual recognition primarily focus on semantics. To bridge this gap, we study relationship detection (2.5VRD), which goal is jointly detect objects predict their relative depth occlusion relationships. Unlike general ...

at Protraction facemask therapy has been advocated in early treatment of Class III malocclusions with maxillary deficiency. The dental and skeletal effects of this appliance are well documented in the literature. One reason tha clinicians are sometimes reluctant to render early orthopedic treatment in Class III patients is the inability to predict mandibular growth. 6 Patients receiving early o...

The patient demonstrated a Class III malocclusion with 30% overbite, 1 mm overjet, a centered upper dental midline, and a lower dental midline 2 mm to the left. She had a straight profile, a protrusive lower lip, and an interlabial gap of 3 mm (Figs. 1, 2, and 3). Space analysis indicated approximately 5.5 mm maxillary and 3 mm mandibular space deficiency. The maxillary arch was constricted. Ra...
