CASE REPORTAlternative Treatment Plan for a Multidisciplinary Transfer CaseMARIA A. KARPOV DMD, MS, DANIEL A. KUNCIO DDSA previous orthodontist had recommended premolar extractions to correct this mild skeletal Class III. Drs. Karpov and Kuncio instead use a miniscrew-anchored rapid palatal expander and a corticotomy, followed by custom archwires, to achieve the needed skeletal and dental changes. |

ALIGNER CORNEREvaluation of Composite Attachment Positions Using Four Indirect Bonding Tray-Sectioning TechniquesZESHENG CHEN DMD, MS, CHRISTINA L. NICHOLAS PhD, GHADEER THALJI DDS, PhD, GRACE VIANA MSc, PHIMON ATSAWASUWAN DDS, MS, MSc, PhDDr. Chen and colleagues measure the deviation of posterior attachments from ideal positions after indirect bonding to 3D-printed models. Template trays were sectioned in four different ways (whole, halves, thirds, and sixths) for testing of bonding accuracy. |

PEARLSOcclusal Build-Ups to Prevent Compensatory Mandibular Molar Eruption During Maxillary Molar IntrusionSUNG-HOON LIM DDS, MSD, PhD, JAE HYUN PARK DMD, MSD, MS, PhDPosterior resin turbos, as often used in deep-bite cases, can be applied to control the vertical dimension during presurgical or anterior open-bite treatment. A step-by-step technique is presented, along with a procedure for sequential additions to the build-ups. |
