Pre-Orthodontic Periodontal Augmentation for Lower Incisor Advancement in Adolescent PatientsJAMES B. GRAY DMD, COLIN RICHMAN DMDWhen gingival recession is seen during lower incisor proclination, it is generally treated by soft-tissue augmentation. Drs. Gray and Richman describe a more proactive procedure to ameliorate the bone deficiency in the direction of tooth movement prior to orthodontic treatment. |

The Biocreative Strategy Part 5: Labial and Lingual Space Closure in Extraction TreatmentSEONG-HUN KIM DMD, MSD, PhD, KI-HO PARK DMD, MS, PhD, MIN-KI NOH DMD, MS, PhD, KYU-RHIM CHUNG DMD, MSD, PhD, GERALD NELSON DDSSpace closure in Biocreative extraction therapy is simple to manage, as Dr. Kim and colleagues demonstrate in Part 5 of their six-part series. A bonded mesh tube appliance is shown for labial retraction using Class I and Class III elastics; an anteroposterior lingual retractor is anchored by a palatal miniplate for lingual mechanics. |

Skeletally Anchored PowerScope 2 for Adult Class II, Division 2 TreatmentANTONIO MANNI MD, MARCO MIGLIORATI MD, MSc, PhDClass II, division 2 malocclusion can be difficult to correct in adult patients. Drs. Manni and Migliorati illustrate a combination of the fixed-functional PowerScope 2 device with elastic chains to maximize the skeletal effect and miniscrew anchorage to avoid lower incisor flaring. |

TECHNIQUE CLINICPrevention of Mucosal Irritation from the Forsus Fatigue Resistant DeviceDANIEL LEVY-BERCOWSKI DDS, MS, MSD, FRANK B. HINES III DMDThis article presents a simple modification that directs the push rods of the Forsus Fatigue Resistant Device downward into the vestibule of the cheek, thus avoiding the common problem of mucosal irritation and traumatic ulcers after the appliance is placed in the mouth. |

PEARLSA Windowed Temporary Crown for a Peg-Shaped Lateral IncisorSHAKEEL AHMED VALAI KASIM MDS, DIBO, NUPUR ARATHI G. MDS, NATHAMUNI RENGARAJAN KRISHNASWAMY MDS, MOrthSpaces created prior to restoration of a peg-shaped lateral incisor are traditionally maintained with closed-coil springs. This Pearl shows an esthetic alternative: a temporary crown with a window that allows a bracket to remain bonded to the incisor surface during retraction and space closure. |
