CAD/CAM-Guided Microscrew Insertion for Horseshoe Distalization AppliancesORONZO DE GABRIELE DDS, MD, GIANLUCA DALLATANA DT, SIVABALAN VASUDAVAN BDSc, MDSc, MPH, BENEDICT WILMES DMD, MSD, PhDThe horseshoe palatal anchorage plate relies on precise microscrew positioning to facilitate three-dimensional control of tooth movement, while simplifying the insertion procedure and reducing patient discomfort. Dr. De Gabriele and colleagues present two typical skeletal Class II cases. |

Regeneration of the Anterior Palatal Alveolar Cortex after Treatment of Bimaxillary ProtrusionSHIVANI SINGH BDS, MDSExcessive incisor retraction in a bimaxillary protrusive case can lead to adverse iatrogenic sequelae. Dr. Singh uses cone-beam computed tomography to document alveolar bone remodeling after treatment of a patient whose upper incisors were retracted bodily past the palatal cortical plate. |

THE CUTTING EDGETrends in the Use of 3D Printing Technology Among Practicing Orthodontists and Orthodontic Residency ProgramsEMILY POULOS DDS, JULIE BARRONS OLSEN DMD, JAE HYUN PARK DMD, MSD, MS, PhDDrs. Poulos, Barrons Olsen, and Park designed this study to investigate the use of in-house 3D printers by private practices and academic residency programs. Preferred printers and software programs are surveyed, along with common applications, barriers to purchase, and predictions for the future. |

Strategies for Compensatory Orthodontic Treatment of Adult Skeletal Open BiteFABRICIO PINELLI VALARELLI DDS, MSc, PhD, MARIA FERNANDA ANTONIO SILVA DDS, LUCIANO IMAI DDS, MSc, GUILHERME JANSON DDS, MSc, PhD, KARINA MARIA SALVATORE FREITAS DDS, MSc, PhDDr. Valarelli and colleagues review effective methods for compensatory fixed-appliance treatment of hyperdivergent adult patients with severe skeletal anterior open bites, including first-molar extractions and the use of lingual spurs and intermaxillary elastics. Their protocol is illustrated in a sample case. |

CASE REPORTMolar Intrusion Using Clear Aligners Without Additional Anchorage DevicesFERRUCCIO TORSELLO DDS, PhD, MATTEO TURCHI DDS, MASSIMO CORDARO MD, DDSSeveral authors have contended that clear aligners can provide enough vertical control for maxillary molar intrusion without miniscrew anchorage. In this case, an upper first molar is intruded using only aligners and bonded attachments, while bleaching and prosthetic restoration are performed during the final stage. |

PEARLSPosterior Functional Bite Turbos for Sagittal CorrectionDALIA EL-BOKLE DDS, MSc, PhDThis Pearl describes the application of functional resin turbos on the upper and lower premolars to help correct a Class II malocclusion. When used in conjunction with fixed appliances and elastics, their effect is similar to that of a Twin Block. |
