Title: [Incisor repositioning: a new approach in orthodontics]. Author: Dallel I, Khemiri M, Fathallah S, Ben Rejeb S, Tobji S, Ben Amor A. Journal: Orthod Fr; 2015 Dec; 86(4):327-38. PubMed ID: 26655419. Abstract: Lower incisors axis has a "key" position in different cephalometric analysis. However, several critics are directed towards the cephalometric profile and cephalometric landmarks (point, line and angle). The published norms and the cephalometric standards recommended for the optimal positioning of incisors could only be used as general clinical guidelines. Incisor repositioning to achieve optimal facial aesthetics requires taking into consideration the hard and soft tissues of the face, the profile, the muscular dynamics as well as the facial growth. In this work, we propose a new approach of incisor repositioning taking into account the variability of periodontal, functional and aesthetic factors.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
