Diagnosis and management of root resorption in traumatized teeth: Report of two cases
This report is presented two cases of root resorption (external cervical resorption and inflammatory IR) in traumatized teeth where cone beam computed tomography has been used as an important diagnostic tool. Treatment of external cervical resorption involved endodontics and periodontics. In case with inflammatory IR, only endodontic treatment was necessary. The postoperative course was uneventful and a stable clinical outcome was obtained. (Source: European Journal of General Dentistry)

Horizontal tooth movement through atrophic edentulous alveolar ridge for bone formation
The objective of this article is to present a clinical case with a malocclusion in the permanent dentition and an absence of both premolars in the left hemiarch, and with the canine positioned adjacent to the maxillary left first molar. The movement of the canine was slow through the alveolar ridge in the edentulous region during movement. Rectangular arches associated with stainless steel open springs alternated with elastomeric chains were used to move the canine adjacent to the lateral incisor. The retention was with a Hawley type and an acrylic tooth while waiting for implant prosthesis placement. The orthodontic movem...

Early interception of mandibular shifting: A longitudinal approach from deciduous through mixed and permanent dentitions
The objective is to analyze the long-term changes in a patient with a skeletal Class II division 1 malocclusion. A 5-year-old female child who was referred from a pediatric dentist came for consultation. Correction of posterior crossbite involves expansion of the maxillary arch with the aim of removal of occlusal interferences and elimination of the functional shift of the mandible. The treatment comprised three stages: (1) Expansion of the maxillary arch was performed with a modified Haas palatal expander and the clinical procedures thus resulted in improved facial symmetry and satisfactory functional occlusion in the mix...
