Evaluating whether subjects with Angle Class II subdivision malocclusions have a significant skeletal contribution to the asymmetric malocclusion utilizing
3-dimensional analysis with cone-beam computed
tomography (CBCT).
Investigating the effectiveness of scaling/root planing (SRP) plus 1064 XLASE (Fotona LLC, Dallas, TX) diode laser therapy (SRP+LASER) compared to SRP only (SRP ONLY) in the treatment of moderate-to-severe (Stage II–III) chronic periodontitis by comparing clinical crown lengths (CCL), probing depths (PD), bleeding on probing (BOP), and bone level (CBCT scans) at pre-treatment and 12 to 18 months post-treatment.
With technology furthering the capability of humans to explore space
for longer longevities, dental considerations become an even bigger priority in the success of space missions.
An investigation of how skeletal and dental changes, including mandibular plane angle and incisor position changes, affect airway dimension in non-surgical orthodontic open bite treatment.
An investigation of whether orthodontic treatment to close anterior open bite or to address other open bite malocclusion leads to changes in airway size.
