Celtic Regions I would also like to thank both Gavin Mack (South-East) and Amreen Liz Turbill ([email protected]) Ahmad (Northern) for their hard work and contribution to the success of the Bulletin. Both Gavin and Amreen, who will be leaving their Northern England positions on the editorial board, have excelled within their roles Amreen Ahmad ([email protected]) as regional sub-editors.

I look forward to working with the existing Christian Day ([email protected]) and new editorial board members who I am sure will further enhance South East the reputation of the Bulletin. Gavin Mack ([email protected]) The success of the Bulletin is also dependent on the numerous Post- TGG representative CCST trainees across the country who undertake peer-review of Rachel Stephens ([email protected]) articles. I have found these reviews to be conducted in a careful and diligent manner and I would like to thank you all for your continued Ann Wright ([email protected]) support and excellent reviews!! This is greatly appreciated. Lastly, Jadbinder Seehra the Bulletin would not be in circulation without the numerous high Editor BOS Clinical Effectiveness Bulletin quality articles submitted for publication by members of our Society. The effort made by clinicians to report standards of clinical practice Department of Orthodontics and improve clinical effectiveness is impressive. I would strongly Kings College Hospital NHS Foundation Trust encourage all members of the orthodontic team in both primary and Denmark Hill, London secondary care to consider submitting their articles to the Bulletin.

Methods: This study was registered in PROSPERO (CRD42016037513). A literature search was conducted to identify randomized (RCT) or non-randomized clinical trials based including those considering before and after design. Data sources were electronic databases including PubMed, Cochrane Library, Science Direct, Google Scholar, Scopus, Lilacs, OpenGrey, Web of Science, and ClinicalTrials.gov. The quality of evidence was assessed through the JBI tool and certainty of evidence was evaluated through the GRADE tool. Random effects meta-analysis was conducted when appropriate. Results: Six hundred twenty-four articles met the initial inclusion criteria. From these, only 6 remained. The mean posttreatment follow-up time was 2.5 years (SD = 1.04). The overbite showed a standardized mean relapse of − 1.23 mm (95% CI − 1.64, − 0.81, p < 0.0001). Maxillary and mandibular incisors presented a non-significant mean relapse, U1-PP − 0.04 mm (95% CI − 0.55, 0.48) and L1-MP − 0.10 mm (95% CI − 0.57, 0.37). Molar intrusion showed a relapse rate around 12% for the maxillary molars and a 27.2% for mandibular molars.

Copee Uijongbu and Seoul, Korea, Philadelphia, Pa, and Dallas, Tex This article describes the orthodontic treatment for a young woman, aged 23 years 5 months, with a Class III malocclusion and a deviated midline. Two orthodontic mini-implants (C-implants, CIMPLANT Company, Seoul, Korea) were placed in the interdental spaces between the mandibular second premolars and first mo- lars. The treatment plan consisted of distalizing the mandibular dentition asymmetrically and creating space for en-masse retraction of the mandibular anterior teeth. C-implants were placed to provide anchorage for Class I intra-arch elastics. The head design of the C-implant minimizes gingival irritation during orthodontic treatment. Sliding jigs were applied buccally for distalization of the mandibular posterior teeth. The active treatment period was 18 months. Normal overbite and overjet were obtained, and facial balance was improved. (Am J Orthod Dentofacial Orthop 2010;137:135-46) very orthodontic tooth movement is accompa- patients.

    Correcting Posterior Crossbites Complicated by Class III Malocclusions (A New Technique) Suhail A

    Dental, Oral and Craniofacial Research Research Article ISSN: 2058-5314 Correcting posterior crossbites complicated by class III malocclusions (A new technique) Suhail A. Khouri* Orthodontist, Ballwin, Missouri, USA Abstract TThe objective of this study is to introduce a simplified alternative approach to the current modality used in posterior crossbites correction. It is believed that the interlocking relation of posterior teeth cusps, prevents transverse forces of the palatal expanders from eliciting the desired movement, rendering the crossbite correction an oranous task for orthodontists. Thus eliminating this cuspal blockage constitutes a key step to developing a simpler approach for correction. This diagnostic concept has lead the way to formulating an alternative, and clinically convenient treatment technique that not only corrects posterior crossbites, but also effectively corrects the often coexisting class III malocclusion simultaneously. Building composite bite raisers on mandibular posterior teeth, along with the intrusive effects of the V-Bends on super elastic wires, disengage the blocked cusps of posterior teeth, stop the patient’s mandibular shifted occlusion making any transverse corrective forces more effective in moving the malposed teeth segments. This methodical and clinically applicable technique utilizes a solid force system that delivers expanding / constricting mechanics acting on buccal, rather than the palatal sides of posterior teeth, launched by placing lasting intraoral V-Bends on super elastic archwires, using the Bendistal Pliers*. Whereas these V-Bends create light and consistent, apically directed forces on both, mandibular and maxillary anterior teeth to intrude and disengage them for the class III correction, an equal and opposite side effect forces intrudes and disengages posterior teeth cusps helping the correction of posterior crossbites in the same time.
