An evaluation of tooth root resorption associated with the use of photobiomodulation during orthodontic treatment with clear aligners
DownloadFall 2020
INTRODUCTION: Photobiomodulation therapy has been reported to accelerate orthodontic tooth movement, which may also be contributing to an increase in orthodontically induced external root resorption (OIERR). The aim of this project is to evaluate the change in tooth root volume using cone-beam...

Developing and Testing a Theoretical Model to Determine Children’s Adherence to Oral Health Behaviours
DownloadFall 2020
Background: Adherence to health care advice is a complex health concern especially when it involves children. Dental caries has been identified as the most common chronic childhood disease that occurs in a continuum. At the same time, it can be prevented by adherence to proper oral health...

Evaluating the Biomechanics of Tooth Movement induced through Orthodontic Braces using an Integrated Clinical and Mechanical Approach
DownloadSpring 2024
Orthodontics is the dental specialization focused on correcting tooth and jaw misalignments. The treatment is known to have positive effects on the quality of life of the public by improving personal aesthetics and oral health. A common fixed treatment option is orthodontic braces, composed of...

Fusion of Magnetic Resonance Imaging and Cone-Beam Computed Tomography: A New Approach to Diagnostic Imaging of Temporomandibular Joints.
DownloadSpring 2017
Aims: to develop a reliable and accurate method to co-register magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) images for improved assessment of TMJ internal derangement in adolescents and adults, and to utilize this MRI-CBCT co-registration tool to quantify TMJ changes...

How can Canadian graduate orthodontic programs better prepare their newly graduated orthodontists for the business challenges of orthodontic practice: An exploratory survey of Canadian orthodontists
DownloadFall 2010
An anonymous online survey of Canadian orthodontists was used to evaluate orthodontic practice management related background, training, needs and practices. Program directors of Canadian graduate orthodontic programs were contacted for details regarding their program’s educational opportunities...

Initial forces experienced by the anterior and posterior teeth during dental-anchored or skeletal-anchored en-masse retraction in an in vitro dental arch
DownloadSpring 2017
Objectives: To evaluate the initial forces generated by retraction springs during en-masse retraction space closure on a simulated maxillary dental arch. To compare these initial retraction forces on the anterior and posterior teeth between traditional dental-anchorage and skeletal anchorage....

Simulation of Initial Forces and Moments on a Curve of Spee Malocclusion with Labial and Lingual Orthodontic Appliances
DownloadFall 2021
OBJECTIVES: Orthodontic movement is determined by the acting forces and moments exerted onto teeth, which are difficult to predict and calculate with continuous archwires. Levelling the curve of Spee is a fundamental objective in orthodontic treatment. The forces and moments exerted by labial and...

The Effect of Conventional Elastomers on Force and Moment of a Self-Ligating Orthodontic Bracket with Second-Order Angulation in the Dry and Wet States evaluated through a new 3D Friction Device
DownloadSpring 2013
Objective: A new three-dimensional friction device was used to investigate the effect of conventional elastomers on force and moment of a self-ligating orthodontic bracket with second-order angulation during a simulated retraction. Methods: An 0.018x0.025-in stainless steel archwire was drawn...
