Treatment and posttreatment effects of Herbst appliance therapy on trabecular structure of the mandible using fractal dimension analysis

CONCLUSION: Herbst therapy changed the trabecular structure of the condyles in different directions at the superoposterior and central regions of the condyles, while the structural complexity of the angulus mandible, which did not change during the Herbst treatment, increased during the fixed orthodontic treatment after Herbst.PMID:34320187 | DOI:10.1093/ejo/cjab048
