1. Relapse of maxillary anterior crowding in Class I and Class II malocclusion treated orthodontically without extractions / Recidiva do apinhamento ântero-superior nas más oclusões de classe I e classe II tratadas ortodonticamente sem extrações

The present study aimed to retrospectively compare the postretention stability of maxillary anterior incisors alignment in Angle Class I and Class II patients. Sample comprised 38 patients of both genders, treated nonextraction and edgewise mechanics. Sample was divided into two groups: Group 1 (Class I) comprised 19 patients (12 females and 7 males), at a m

2. Maxillary anterior crowding relapse in class I and II extraction treatment / Recidiva do apinhamento ântero-superior nas más oclusões de classe I e classe II tratadas com extrações

The posttreatment stability was always a delicate issue in Orthodontics. Most of the orthodontic patients and even the orthodontists judge their treatment as successful based on the treatment outcomes stability in the long-term. Because of this reason the literature has a lot of studies about this issue, mostly on relapse of mandibular anterior crowding. How

3. Influência do tamanho das bases ósseas apicais no apinhamento dentário / Relationship of apical base length and dental crowding

The influence of many factors on dental crowding has been studied since long time ago, mainly in its relationship with anterior lower crowding. But, the influence of the apical bases length on the dental crowding was still not clarified. As there are evidences in the literature, it was decided to carry out the present study to investigate the relationship be

4. Avaliação da influência da expansão rápida da maxila sobre a recidiva do apinhamento ântero-superior em casos tratados ortodonticamente com extrações de pré-molares / Evaluation of the influence of rapid maxillary expansion on the relapse of maxillary anterior crowding in cases ortodontically treated with premolar extraction

A estabilidade a longo prazo do tratamento ortodôntico é o objetivo dos ortodontistas na busca do sucesso dos casos clínicos. Desta forma o presente estudo objetivou avaliar retrospectivamente a influência da expansão rápida da maxila na estabilidade pós-contenção do alinhamento dos dentes ântero-superiores, em casos tratados com extração de pré

5. Avaliação da influência da realização da expansão rápida da maxila sobre a recidiva do apinhamento ântero-superior, em casos tratados ortodonticamente sem extrações / Influence of rapid maxillary expansion in maxillary anterior alignment stability, in nonextraction cases

The purpose of this retrospective study was to compare the long-term stability of maxillary incisors alignment in cases treated with or without rapid maxillary expansion (RME) during orthodontic treatment. The sample comprised 48 subjects presenting Class I and Class II malocclusions, treated nonextraction and Edgewise fixed appliances. The sample was divide
