Summary: This study aimed to assess the removal torque required to explant osseo-integrated and orthodontically utilized palatal implants. The results showed that male patients required significantly higher removal torque compared to female patients, and the direction of removal did not significantly affect the torque. Patient age and loading time were not significantly correlated with removal torque values.

Summary: In this study, the stress-strain state of a palatal orthodontic device supported by mini-implants was numerically investigated using finite element analysis. Four possible options for the placement of the mini-implants were analyzed, and the effects of different placement options and materials were evaluated. The study identified the optimal placement options for the mini-implants and the preferred material for the palatal orthodontic device.

Summary: This study found that intraperitoneal injection of PDTC can inhibit the activity of the NF-kB signaling pathway and promote the expression of BMP-2 and OCN, affecting the process of osteogenesis in the anterior palatal suture expansion.

Summary: This study compared the effects of three different bone-borne type expansion appliances in surgically-assisted rapid palatal expansion (SARPE) through finite element analysis. The results showed that model II had the lowest stress distribution and the greatest displacement, making it suitable for craniofacial structures.

Summary: This study evaluated the success-related factors of microimplant-assisted rapid palatal expansion (MARPE), including age, palatal depth, suture, and parassutural bone thickness, suture density and maturation, and the relation to corticopuncture (CP) technique, as well as skeletal and dental effects. The results showed that older age, thin palatal bone, and higher stage of maturation can influence the success of MARPE, and CP technique has a positive impact on treatment success.

Summary: The reliability and accuracy of intraoral radiography (IR), cone-beam-computed tomography (CBCT), and dental magnetic resonance imaging (dMRI) in measuring peri-implant bone defects around single zirconia implants were evaluated. dMRI showed superior accuracy in measuring defect depth compared to IR and CBCT.

Summary: This study aimed to evaluate the midpalatal suture repair pattern after miniscrew-assisted rapid palatal expansion (MARPE) in adult patients. Most adult patients demonstrated incomplete repair of the midpalatal suture 16 months after MARPE, but adequate bone repair covering more than half of the hard palate extension was observed in 80.95% of the patients.

Summary: The study found that the guided paramedian insertion of palatal miniscrews using a lateral cephalogram and intraoral scan can effectively prevent incisor root damage, reducing the need for CBCT and thus radiation exposure. The distance between miniscrews and incisor roots showed no significant differences between CBCT and lateral cephalogram imaging techniques.

Summary: The aim of this study was to evaluate bone dimensions in the anterior maxilla using high-resolution imaging tool micro-CT. The results showed that buccal bone was thin with fenestrations, while palatal bone was thicker. Therefore, careful planning and individual approach are necessary to avoid potential complications and achieve stable aesthetic and functional outcomes in immediate implant placement in the anterior maxilla.

Summary: The narrative review provides updated and integrated guidelines for the clinical application of palatal TSADs in orthodontic treatment, focusing on anatomical characteristics, success rate, and clinical application based on the direction of tooth movement. Palatal TSADs show good stability, high success rate, and versatile applications for controlling tooth movement in various directions and dimensions. Anatomical considerations and design modifications using splinted mini-screws are crucial for successful placement and effective 3-dimensional tooth movement control.

Summary: The influence of each step of the digital workflow on the deviation of the miniscrews' axis of insertion was analyzed. Results showed that the clinical steps have a bigger influence on the deviation and need to be carefully evaluated.

Summary: This study evaluates the predictability of using CBCT alone for implant placement planning in edentulous patients. The findings indicate that digital planning by CBCT is insufficient to predict implant procedures and additional information and evaluation are required.
