INITIAL DISPLACEMENT AND STRESS DISTRIBUTION OF UPPER CENTRAL INCISOR EXTRUSION WITH CLEAR ALIGNERS AND VARIOUS SHAPES OF COMPOSITE ATTACHMENTS USING THE FINITE ELEMENT METHOD

Initial Displacement and Stress Distribution of Upper Central Incisor Extrusion with Clear Aligners and Various Shapes of Composite Attachments Using the Finite Element Method

A clear aligner is an esthetic and more comfortable option for patients who need Sanitary Napkins orthodontic treatment.However, some types of tooth movement, such as extrusion, are difficult with this tool.Therefore, composite attachments have been suggested to improve tooth movement.This study aims to evaluate the initial displacement and stress

Terrestrial reproduction and parental care drive rapid evolution in the trade-off between offspring size and number across amphibians.

The trade-off between offspring size and number is central to life history strategies.Both the evolutionary gain of parental care or more favorable habitats for offspring development are predicted to result in fewer, larger offspring.However, despite much research, it remains unclear whether and how different forms of care and habitats drive the ev
