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

Folding Canes A clear aligner is an esthetic and more comfortable option for patients who need 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 dis

Dietary Calcium Levels Reduce the Efficacy of One Alpha-Hydroxycholecalciferol in Phosphorus-Deficient Diets of Broilers

One alpha-hydroxycholecalciferol (1α-OH D3), an analog of cholecalciferol (vitamin D3), improves growth performance and phosphorus retention in broilers.In the present study, we investigate the effects of dietary calcium (Ca) levels on the efficacy of 1α-OH D3 in the phosphorus (P)-deficient corn-soybean meal diets of 1- to 21-d-old bro
