CASE REPORT
Early Management of an Edge-to-Edge Incisor Occlusion
Volume 57 : Number 6 : Page 20230601 : Jun 2023
Interception of an edge-to-edge incisor relationship in the mixed dentition can prevent the development of many dental and skeletal abnormalities. This young patient benefited from a short course of orthodontic treatment that avoided the need for surgery while preserving the permanent dentition.

Compensatory Treatment of a Complex Class III Malocclusion
Volume 56 : Number 2 : Page 20220201 : Feb 2022
Recent technological advances in thermoactivated and superelastic wires and skeletal anchorage have enabled simpler compensatory orthodontic treatment of skeletal Class III patients without extractions or orthognathic surgery. In this case, the authors use passive self-ligating brackets and extra-alveolar mandibular skeletal anchorage.

CASE REPORT
Orthodontic Treatment of a Patient with Severe TMD
Volume 54 : Number 9 : Page 537 : Sep 2020
A stabilization splint helps establish a stable condylar position so that this TMD patient’s true mandibular position can be identified. Definitive orthodontic treatment is then planned, involving upper first-premolar extractions and upper posterior intrusion with skeletal anchorage.
