In this case report, Authors describe the correction of a class II malocclusion using only an Herbst appliance palatally anchored with miniscrews. Before sagittal correction in the same appliance we applied a palatal screw to obtain maxillary expansion. The device were removed after 12 months of treatment. The final result included the correction of Class II malocclusion by lower dentoalveolar compensation mainly. The lip function favorite the spontaneous correction of upper frontal torque with consequent improvement of facial esthetics. After a follow up of 12 months the clinical result is satisfactory in terms of occlusion and esthetics. This clinical case showed a simple orthopedic and dentoalveolar approach to correct transversal discrepancy, dental class II malocclusion and also frontal proclination only with one appliance in a very short treatment time.

Background: CTA spot sign is a predictor of intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) expansion. This sign can fluctuate in appearance, volume, and timing. Multiphase CTA (mCTA) can identify spot sign through 3 time-resolved images. We sought to identify a novel predictor of follow up total hematoma expansion using mCTA. Methods: This cohort study included patients with ICH between 2012-2019. Quantomo software was used to measure total hematoma volume (ml) from baseline CT & follow-up CT/MRI blinded to spot sign in 3 mCTA phases. Spot sign expansion was calculated by subtracting 1 st phase spot sign volume from 2 nd phase spot sign volume measured in microliters. Results: 199 patients [63% male, mean age 69 years, median NIHSS 11, IQR 6-20] were included. Median baseline ICH volume was 16.1 ml (IQR 5-29.9 ml). Amongst all three mCTA phases, spot sign was best detected on the 2nd phase (23% vs 17.5% 1 st phase vs 22% 3 rd phase). In multivariable regression, spot sign expansion was significantly associated with follow up total hematoma expansion (OR: 1.03 per microliter of spot sign expansion, p=0.01). Figure 1 shows the predicted total hematoma expansion by spot sign expansion. mCTA spot sign had a higher sensitivity for predicting total hematoma volume expansion than single-phase CTA (reported in meta-analysis of 14 studies), 86% vs 53%, respectively, while both having similar specificity, 87% vs 88%, respectively. Conclusion: Spot sign expansion on mCTA is a novel predictor of total hematoma expansion and could be used to select patients for immediate therapeutic intervention in future clinical trials. Using mCTA improves sensitivity while preserving specificity over single-phase CTA.

SUMMARY Objectives: This randomized, prospective, and split-mouth study aimed to evaluate flowable bulk-fill resin composites in class II restorations and to compare with a conventional layering technique after a 3-year follow-up. Methods and Materials: Fifty-three subjects received three class II restorations according to the restorative systems: conventional microhybrid resin composite (PA, Peak Universal + Amelogen Plus, Ultradent), flowable bulk-fill and nanoparticulate resin composites (ABF, Adper Single Bond 2 + Filtek Bulk Fill Flow + Filtek Z350XT, 3M Oral Care), and flowable bulk-fill and microhybrid resin composites (XST, XP Bond + SDR + TPH3, Dentsply). The clinical performance and interproximal contacts were evaluated. Statistical analyses were performed using the equality test of two proportions, Logistic regression analysis, Friedman, Wilcoxon, Kruskal-Wallis, and Mann-Whitney tests (α=0.05). Results: Forty-seven patients were evaluated at 3 years. XST bulk-fill restorative system presented higher marginal discoloration than PA, and the opposite occurred for surface staining. All restorative systems resulted in decreased interproximal contacts, occurring early for XST. Conclusions: Although the restorative system using incremental technique presented better performance for marginal discoloration, one of the restorative systems that used flowable bulk-fill resin composite (XST) showed the lowest surface staining. All restorative systems had decreased proximal contact over time.

Introduction. The Herbst device is widely used for correction of class II malocclusions; however, most of the researches carried out on the Herbst appliance in literature do not take into account patients with a different mandibular divergence. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of Herbst on dental and skeletal structures and to evaluate possible influence of vertical facial growth patterns. Methods. A retrospective study was conducted on lateral cephalograms of 75 growing patients (mean age: 9.9 ± 1.9 years) with class II malocclusion treated with Herbst. Subjects were divided into 3 groups using the mandibular divergence index (SN and GoMe angle). Cephalometric parameters were evaluated using the modified SO (sagittal occlusion) Pancherz’s analysis. A statistical analysis was conducted to evaluate differences among groups using ANOVA. Results. Our study showed differences in response to treatment depending on patient’s facial vertical growth pattern. Cranial base angle and mandibular rotation were significantly different (p<0.05) between hypodivergent patients and normodivergent patients and between hypodivergent and hyperdivergent subjects. Conclusion. Hypodivergent patients increased their mandibular divergence during treatment to a greater extent than normodivergents; moreover, hyperdivergent patients exhibited a decreased mandibular divergence at the end of the treatment.
