OVERVIEWClinical Considerations in Patients at High Risk for Root ResorptionEBRAHIM A. AL-AWADHI BDS, MSc, PhD, MFD, MOrth, FFD, LEAH S. FINAN BDS, MFDDrs. Al-Awadhi and Finan list patient-related risk factors for root resorption and review evidence-based recommendations from the literature for avoiding orthodontically induced resorption. Appliance choices, types of tooth movement, force application, duration of treatment, and extractions are covered. |

Functional Class II Treatment with a Miniplate-Anchored Herbst AppliancePAOLO MANZO DDS, PhD, STEFANO MARTINA DDS, PhD, PIETRO LEONE DDS, VINCENZO D’ANTÒ DDS, PhDLower incisor proclination due to loss of anchorage is almost unavoidable in conventional Herbst treatment. Drs. Manzo, Martina, Leone, and D’Antò demonstrate how to use miniplate anchorage to take advantage of the Herbst’s effectiveness in correcting mandibular retrusion while minimizing dental side effects. |

PEARLSLateral Incisor Bracket Positioning for Phase I TreatmentNEAL D. KRAVITZ DMD, MS, SHAWN L. MILLER DMD, MMedScThis month’s Pearl shows how to modify bracket positioning on the upper lateral incisors during Phase I treatment to avoid premature distal root tip in the path of the erupting canines, thus preventing the development of an unsightly midline diastema. |

Intraoral Maxillary Protractor for Early Treatment of a Class III Malocclusion with Maxillary DeficiencyMATHEUS MELO PITHON DDS, MSc, PhD, JUCIARA FRANÇA DOS SANTOS DDS, CAMILA SILVA DE AMORIM DDS, MSc, ORLANDO MOTOHIRO TANAKA DDS, MSc, PhD, LUCIANNE COPLE MAIA DDS, MSc, PhDThis simple toothborne device, as described by Dr. Pithon and colleagues, can be installed as soon as the lower first permanent molars have erupted. Combined with rapid maxillary expansion, it eliminates the need for extraoral appliances or miniplate anchorage in a skeletal Class III case. |

CASE REPORTManagement of Alveolar Bone Exostosis after Orthodontic TreatmentAMORNRUT MANOSUDPRASIT DDS, MSD, CAGs, WORATHEP CHANTADILOK DDS, MONTIAN MANOSUDPRASIT DDS, MDS, FRCDTThis patient developed upper and lower buccal alveolar bone exostoses after premolar extractions and anterior retraction. The upper bony protuberance is removed with minor osseous surgery, and post-treatment follow-up shows normal healing and good orthodontic results. |
