Effects of premature contact in maxillary alveolar bone in rats: relationship between experimental analyses and a micro scale FEA computational simulation study
ConclusionsThe results from FEA, 3D bone microarchitecture, and histological and immunohistochemical analyses showed that a model with dental traumatic occlusion resulted in changes of alveolar bone mechanobiology and, consequently, its morphology.Clinical relevanceThese results could be applied in dental treatment planning bringing biological and mechanical feedback to provide an effective mechanism to obtain physiological bone loss responses. Furthermore, this association between experimental and computational analyses will be important to figure out the alveolar bone response to mechanical stimulation in different clinical conditions.

Relevance of Class II interceptive treatments. Synthesis of the valid conventional means of study
The objective of this literature review was to note its indications and if a benefit is proven. We carried out a systematic search on PubMed from 1999 to 2019 by keywords on randomized trials. Fourteen articles were selected, mainly grade B or C. The criteria evaluated were dental, skeletal, psychological, aesthetic, as well as cost, duration, incisor fractures, rate of stroke, complexity and treatment need.
