Volume 56 : Number 8 : Page 473 : Aug 2022
Dr. Boanger shows how maxillary incisors can be intruded as a block with progressive step-up bends in a sectional wire, using indirect anchorage from buccal mini-implants. The intrusive force produces incisor proclination for arch lengthening, and a buccal root-torquing bend then provides axial control.

An Intrusion Screw System for Miniscrew-Assisted Maxillary Molar Intrusion
Volume 56 : Number 9 : Page 508 : Sep 2022
Intrusion of overerupted molars is difficult to achieve in adult patients with conventional mechanics. Dr. Derton and colleagues use segmental posterior archwires to control torque with skeletal support from three miniscrews: two buccal interradicular and one palatal.

Use of 3D Metrology Software to Analyze Aligner Treatment Outcomes after Lower-Incisor Extractions
Volume 57 : Number 12 : Page 747 : Dec 2023
Extraction of a single lower incisor and interproximal reduction can facilitate clear aligner treatment for the relief of severe crowding. Drs. Giulieri, Weir, and Freer use a 3D modeling program to assess the accuracy of such treatment, as compared with the predicted results.
