OVERVIEW
Surgical Uprighting of Lower Second Molars
Volume 50 : Number 1 : Page 33 : Jan 2016
Orthodontic correction of impacted lower second molars is challenging due to the limited access. Both nonsurgical and surgical treatment options have been reported. If the impacted molar is submerged deep below the soft tissue, surgical uprighting provides a safe and efficient solution with minimal tooth morbidity and a good long-term prognosis. Although the technique is most commonly applied to mesially angulated lower second molars, it can be used on other impacted teeth that have limited access or have failed to respond to standard bracket-and-chain methods.

MASTER CLINICIAN
Volume 51 : Number 1 : Page 0 : Jan 2017
It gives me substantial pleasure to introduce my friend and colleague, Dr. Mauro Cozzani, as our current Master Clinician. A number of years ago, shortly after I was named Editor of JCO, I was invited to lecture in the Department of Orthodontics at the University of Ferrara, Italy. I eventually made several trips to Italy and, during the course of my visits, gained a deep appreciation for the country, its customs, and, especially, the people (not to mention the food and wine!). I met many highly capable orthodontists, but one who stands out as singularly impressive is Dr. Cozzani. In the years since I first met him, he has been a frequent contributor to the pages of JCO and other international orthodontic publications, having published more than 80 papers.

THE CUTTING EDGE
Volume 51 : Number 5 : Page 259 : May 2017
Photobiomodulation (PBM) and photobiomodulation therapy (PBMT) are two terms we are hearing more about in our profession and other areas of health care. We see various devices, some over-the-counter, using PBMT to treat acne, wrinkles, hair loss, and pain. PBMT is also being applied for smoking cessation, weight loss, addiction therapy, nerve regeneration, and more. Current research is investigating its use to mitigate the effects of Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s diseases. It seems almost too good to be true, but studies on the effects of light in the red-to-infrared range (600-1,070nm) have validated PBMT’s effects on a cellular level.
