▼ Orthodontic tooth movement (OTM) occurs when a mechanical load is applied to a tooth through an appliance. Changes in these adaptive responses to orthodontic force depend on activities of periodontal ligament cells, osteoblasts, osteocytes and osteoclasts, which are influenced by cellular expression of regulatory genes at the right location for a given time. This is a sophisticated process that involves bone resorption at the sites of pressure and bone deposition on the tension side with a tight regulation at post-transcriptional and post-translational stages. To gain an insight into mechanisms that regulate the tooth movement at a molecular level will lead to an effective approach for clinicians to improve orthodontic care. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are short non-coding RNAs that are emerging as important regulators of post-transcriptional gene expression in osteoblastogenesis and osteoclastogenesis. Emerging evidence has indicated that specific miRNAs play a crucial role in osteoclastogenesis and osteoclast differentiation. In this study, we focus on the miR-29 family, which expresses in different patterns corresponding to different orientations of forces in human periodontal ligament cells. In addition, miR-29 family plays important roles in osteoblasts/clasts differentiation and functions. The aim of the study is to evaluate the tooth movement phenotype of miR-29 sponge mice (miR-29 underexpressor) and gain insights into the possible mechanisms of how miR-29 family plays a role in tooth movement via osteoclast function; and to study the histological change and cellular effects from miR-29 loss of function. The tooth movement was achieved using a 5-cN expansion spring on a mandibular first molar of miR-29 sponge mice. After 2 weeks, the distance of tooth movement was evaluated using Faxitron® radiograph and a standardized gauge in microcomputed tomogram, H&E and TRAP staining were performed to investigate the activity of osteoclasts during tooth movement. In addition, RT-realtime PCR was performed to evaluate the level of expression of miRNA in each animal. The average distance of tooth movement in the miR-29 sponge transgenic mice were significantly less than the one in the wildtype control mice. The expression of miR-29 family in the miR-29 sponge mice were 0.2-0.6 folds lower than the ones in the control mice. In addition, the numbers of osteoclasts in the miR-29 sponge mice were less than in the control mice. The findings of this study reveal a previously unknown realm that a miRNA can modulate OTM via osteoclast function Advisors/Committee Members: Atsawasuwan, Phimon (advisor), Nares, Salvador (committee member), Zhou, Xiaofeng (Charles) (committee member), Viana, Grace (committee member), Atsawasuwan, Phimon (chair).

▼ Hypothesis: In the long term, Vivera® and Essix® ACE are not significantly different in transmittance, surface roughness, and flexural modulus among 7 cleaning methods. Objective: Clear retainers have increased in popularity due to their esthetic nature. However, few studies have focused on long-term maintenance of these retainers. This study evaluated the long-term effects of 7 different cleaning methods on light transmittance, flexural modulus, and surface roughness of Vivera® material. Methods: Vivera® retainer (Align® Technology) specimens (n=10,2x0.5x0.04in) were exposed to 7 different cleaning methods: Invisalign® cleaning crystals, Polident®, Listerine®, 2.5% vinegar, 0.6% sodium hypochlorite, 3% hydrogen peroxide, and toothbrushing with distilled water twice a week for 6 months. Before treatment and after 6 months, light transmittance, flexural modulus, and surface roughness of specimens were quantified. Qualitative assessment of random specimens from each method was performed at 6 months using a scanning electron microscope. Mean difference comparisons were done using the independent student t-test and ANOVA (P<0.05). Results: A decrease in transmittance of specimens was found with all cleaning methods compared to baseline, with toothbrushing causing the greatest decrease for Vivera® and Listerine® causing the greatest decrease for ACE. Surface roughness was unaffected by the cleaning methods except NaOCl eliciting a difference in Vivera and Listerine with ACE. Quantitative analysis with SEM however showed negligible difference. Vinegar and toothbrushing showed an increase in flexural modulus in Vivera®, however when compared to each other, showed no difference. All methods increased modulus for ACE except for Invisalign Crystals. Hydrogen peroxide caused the greatest decrease in flexibility of ACE. Conclusions: Over the long-term there is a gradual decrease in transmittance of clear retainers with certain solutions creating less translucency. Surface roughness and flexibility are generally unaffected in the long term but may be affected by oxiders.

▼ Hypothesis: Essix-ACE® and Essix-C+® have no differences in long-term translucency, flexibility, or surface-roughness from 8 different cleaning methods. Objective: To evaluate if there are significant differences in initial translucency, flexibility, or surface-roughness between Essix-ACE® and Essix-C+®. To evaluate if there are significant differences in translucency, flexibility, or surface-roughness after long-term exposure to different cleaning methods in Essix-ACE® and Essix-C+®. Methods: For a 6-month period, 10 specimens (2x0.5x0.04in) of Essix-ACE® and Essix-C+® (Dentsply-Raintree-Essix) were exposed to 8 different cleaning methods (Invisalign® Cleaning Crystals, Retainer Brite®, Polident®, Listerine®, 2.5% vinegar, 0.5% NaOCl, 3% H2O2, and toothbrushing) twice a week. The specimens were stored in 37°C artificial saliva when not being cleaned. At baseline and 6-months, translucency, flexibility, and surface-roughness of the specimens were quantified. Qualitative evaluation of surface-roughness of specimens from each cleaning method was evaluated after 6-months using a scanning-electron-microscope. Student t-tests and ANOVA statistical analyses were used at a significance level of 0.05. Results: There were differences in translucency, flexibility, and surface-roughness between Essix-ACE® and Essix-C+® before exposure to different cleaning methods. Both Essix-ACE® and Essix-C+® demonstrated statistically significant less translucency between baseline and 6-month in all cleaning methods. Essix-ACE® showed statistically significant differences in flexibility in all cleaning methods except Invisalign® Cleaning Crystals and Retainer Brite®. Listerine® affected the translucency of Essix-ACE® significantly more than other methods except toothbrushing, while there was no difference in translucency among the methods in Essix-C+®. Qualitative study did not show any distinctive surface-roughness differences when compared to untreated materials. Conclusions: Over the 6-month period, the translucency of Essix-ACE® and Essix-C+® were significantly decreased between 6-months and baseline for all different cleaning methods. The results of flexibility and surface-roughness were varied. None of the cleaning methods were ideal for Essix ACE® or Essix C+®.

▼ Introduction: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the association of various linear and angular parameters of subjects’ mandibles with different craniofacial skeletal patterns, utilizing 3D CBCT images from three private practices in CO and IL, USA. Methods: Pre-treatment 3D CBCT images from 331 non-growing subjects were used. Two-dimensional cephalometric images generated by Dolphin Imaging Software were utilized for categorizing the samples. The samples were categorized into Class I, Class II, and Class III skeletal types; and subcategorized into hyperdivergent, normodivergent, and hypodivergent vertical growth patterns. Dimensions of linear and angular variables from 3D images i.e. ramus height, ramus breadth, condylar length, coronoid process length, anterior mandible height, and convergence angles of the ramus and of the mandibular base, amongst the skeletal categories were evaluated. ANOVA and Student's t-test statistical analyses were conducted to determine differences of the outlined variables amongst the skeletal types, and Pearson correlation was performed to evaluate the correlation of each variable. Results: There was a significant difference in ramus height observed between Class I and III skeletal types, and between males and females. Significant difference in anterior mandibular height was observed between males and females. There were statistically significant mean differences of the studied variables of the mandibles, among the vertical patterns in all skeletal groups. Positive correlation of various parameters of the mandibles was observed most in Class I/normodivergent subjects. Conclusions: This is the first study to compare linear and angular variables of the mandibles in all skeletal types, using 3D CBCT images. This study provides a preliminary 3D norm for all skeletal types and genders. Ramus height can be used as an indicator for gender differentiation.

▼ Hypothesis: There are no difference of components of cranial base and maxilla in adults with different craniofacial patterns. Objective: To evaluate the correlation of various linear, angular, and volumetric measurements of subjects’ maxilla and cranial base with different craniofacial skeletal patterns, utilizing 3D CBCT images. Methods: Pre-treatment CBCT images from 331, adults (115 males and 216 females; aged 18 to 45) were uploaded into Dolphin Imaging software for categorizing the samples, measuring different linear, angular, and volumetric parameters of maxilla and cranial base. Geomagic control X software was used for palatal vault air volume measurement. The samples were grouped into class I, II, and III skeletal type; and subgrouped into hyperdivergent, normodivergent, and hypodivergent, based on their vertical craniofacial patterns. Differences in maxillary sagittal length, maxilla width, maxillary arch width, palatal convergence, palatal height, anterior cranial and posterior cranial base length, cranial base angle, facial width, maxillary bone volume and palatal volume amongst the skeletal categories were evaluated. Statistical analyses were conducted to determine differences of variables at significance level of 0.05. Results: There were significant differences of studied parameters between males and females and among class I, II and III skeletal types. In class I skeletal group, palatal height at first molar area, deepest height of the palate and total cranial base length showed significant differences among different vertical patterns. In class II skeletal group, palatal height at first molar area and maxillary arch width at first premolar area showed significant differences. In class III skeletal group, no parameter showed significant difference. Conclusions: The results in this study provide preliminary result of differences of upper facial structure among various skeletal types and can be beneficial as tool for future orthodontic diagnosis and treatment planning as well as anthropologic study.

▼ Introduction: Our objective was to evaluate the attachment transfer accuracy of four indirect bonding technique variations based on tray sectioning. Materials and Methods: Twenty 3D printed dental models without attachments were bonded with composite resin attachments using 0.5mm thermoform plastic template trays fabricated from physical reference models. Four IDB technique variations were studied, n=5 for each technique: 1) whole arch (Whole), 2) whole arch, buccal segment only (Halves), 3) sextants (Thirds), and 4) sextants, buccal segment only (Sixths). Dimensional deviation of attachment position was evaluated in the buccal-lingual (B/L), mesial-distal (M/D), incisal-gingival (I/G) dimensions, and in tip through model digitization and 3D software superimpositions with the reference digital model. Clinical significance cutoffs were set at 0.25mm for linear measurements and 1° for angular measurements. ANOVA and multiple comparisons were performed. Statistical significance was set at 0.05. Results: Across all techniques, a total of 142 attachments were evaluated. B/L- Left side attachments had more mean discrepancy than right side attachments, and there was a lingual bias of all attachments. M/D- The Thirds group had less deviation than all other techniques (p < 0.05). Across all attachments, there was virtually zero bias towards the mesial or distal. I/G- The Wholes and Sixths groups had the least and greatest deviation, respectively, and the difference was significant (p < 0.05). There was an incisal bias across all attachments. Tip- There was approximately a 1° distal root tip bias across all attachments. Overall, no mean linear deviations reached the clinical significance threshold, but mean angular deviations did. Conclusions: In general, all IDB techniques studied achieved clinically acceptable and similar attachment positions in the B/L, M/D, I/G, dimensions, and marginally acceptable tip angulation.

▼ Hypothesis: We hypothesize that there is no mean difference in gingival buccal attachment levels between pre and post-treatment for each of the non-surgically expanded adults and non-expanded adult groups. We also hypothesize that there is no mean difference between non-surgically expanded adults and non-expanded adults for all variables measured in this study: clinical crown height, transarch width, dental angulation, and palatal vault angle. Objective: To evaluate nonsurgical adult maxillary expansion and assess the gingival buccal attachment levels pre and post-treatment in adult patients with constricted arches where the maxillary arch was expanded. Methods: Initial and final study models were evaluated for 26 adults treated with nonsurgical maxillary expansion and compared with 31 adult orthodontic patients who did not require expansion. Study models were scanned and digitized with the Lythos Digital Impression System (Ormco). Linear measurements were completed in Ortho Insight 3D (clinical crown height and transarch width). Angular measurements were completed in Dolphin Imaging (dental angulation and palatal vault angle). Results: Patients who underwent nonsurgical adult expansion showed a mean increase in transarch width for first premolars (3.2+/-1.5mm), second premolars (3.1+/-1.0mm), and first molars (2.5+/-1.4mm). The expansion group showed a mean increase in clinical crown height of the right first premolar (0.5 +/- 0.7mm), right second premolar (0.4 +/- 0.6mm), left first premolar (0.4+/- 0.7mm), left second premolar (0.4 +/- 0.3mm), and left first molar (0.2 +/- 0.6mm). Conclusions: There was a mean difference in gingival buccal attachment levels post-treatment for each of the non-surgically expanded adults and non-expanded adult groups. There was a statistically significant increase between non-surgically expanded adults and non-expanded adults for clinical crown height, transarch width and dental angulation, especially in premolar areas. Despite the difference between groups, the amount of gingival buccal attachment loss was small and clinically acceptable. Funding: Dept. of Orthodontics. IRB/ACC protocol: 20150273.

▼ Introduction: Gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) has been widely investigated as a potential source of biomarkers for an individual’s oral and general health information. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are non-coding RNAs that are involved in post-transcriptional gene regulation. In this study, we investigated potentials of certain miRNAs in GCF as biomarkers for detection of periodontal remodeling during OTM. The aim of the study was to confirm the presence of secretory miRNAs in GCF and investigate temporal expression profiles of specific secretory miRNAs during the course of orthodontic tooth movement. Methods: A total of 70 subjects were recruited in the study from the patients receiving treatment at the University of Illinois at Chicago’s orthodontic clinic. The inclusion criteria included subjects requiring extraction of maxillary first premolars as part of their comprehensive treatment with edgewise fixed appliances. Ultimately 11 GCF samples were collected from healthy subjects between the ages 10 and 18 (mean 14.5 years old), who maintained excellent oral hygiene throughout the study. GCF was collected using absorbent Periopaper strip at six timepoints. T0: prior to bonding the fixed orthodontic appliances T1: on the day of canine retraction T2: 60 minutes after activating the power chain T3: 1 day after the canine retraction visit T4: 7 days after the canine retraction visit T5: between 5 weeks after initiation of canine retraction Human Let7d, g and i were used for normalization of secretory miRNA levels in GCF. Wilcoxon Sign Rank and Kruskal-Wallis and Mann-Whitney U statistical analyses were used in this study Results: In all studied miRNAs, the change in expression of miRNA from T1 to T5 showed statistical significance consistently (p-value ranging from 0.005 to 0.047). Changes between T1 and T2 were only observed in miRNA-29b. Changes between T1 and T4 were observed in both miRNA-101 and miRNA-29b. Analyzing all the time points together, Kruskal-Wallis test showed no statistical significant difference between miRNA-29a, miRNA-29b and miRNA-29c, (p>0.05, p-value ranging from 0.201 to 0.802) indicating the similarity in profile change of miRNA-29 family. Conclusions: We concluded that secretory miRNAs exist in GCF and the expression levels of miRNA-29 family change during orthodontic tooth movement.

▼ Clefts of the lip and palate are the most prevalent congenital craniofacial birth defects. Several surgeries are usually required to correct these defects and they involve extensive bone grafting procedures. From an orthodontic perspective, the aim of bone grafting at the alveolar cleft is to provide continuity and stabilization of the maxillary arch and to permit tooth eruption and orthodontic tooth movement. Although autologous bone graft is the gold standard, it requires a secondary surgical site and the risks of pain, morbidity, infection and scarring at donor site. Tissue engineering approaches that are aimed at improving the functionality of existing clinical materials may provide clinicians with new alternatives. Recently, biomimetic strategies that incorporate the native osteogenic extracellular matrix (ECM) within collagen-based materials have been developed to improve the osteoinductive nature of the biomaterials. This application will focus on utilizing this biomimetic strategy to integrate the osteoinductivity to a frequently used bone graft material Bio-Oss. For decade, Bio-Oss, the porous bone mineral substitute, has been widely and safely applied to dental bone grafting procedure. It is osteoconductive and functions primarily as a space maintainer. However, the clinical Bio-Oss® does not support cell attachment and is not osteoinductive. We hypothesize that: the biomimetically enhanced anorganic bone graft material will impart osteoinductivity by improving stem cell attachment, proliferation and osteogenic differentiation and, ultimately, facilitating new bone formation and remodeling. The goal of this research project was to establish a stable 3D pro-osteogenic ECM coating on Bio-Oss®, and investigate the improved osteoinductive capacity of the biomimetically enhanced Bio-Oss (BE Bio-Oss)by a series of in vitro and in vivo tests. Upon the SEM comparison, the particle size and surface morphologies of BE Bio-Oss demonstrated no difference compared to control but exhibited ECM fibers deposition. However, the HMSC proliferation and the expression of osteogenic marker genes, such as Runx2, Bmp2, colI, and OCN were increased significantly on BE-Bio-Oss. Applied the BE Bio-Oss and control Bio-Oss in the rat critical-sized calvarial bone defects, comparing the bone healing during 4-, 8- and 12-week periods, the µ-CT analysis showed that the bony content (BV/TV), bone structures and bone mineral density were different in BE-Bio-Oss group compare to the control. Under the histological analysis, the BE Bio-Oss demonstrated increased osteogenic cell infiltration and attachment on particle surface as well as enhanced particle remodeling and collagen deposition. Osteogenic markers proteins, DMP1, fibronectin, BMP2, TGFβ and osteocalcin, were strongly expressed in the experimental group compared to Bio-Oss controls. Together, our data indicate existing anorganic bone graft material, Bio-Oss, possess poor osteoinductive properites. The biomimetically enhanced Bio-Oss could promote better cell attachment,… Advisors/Committee Members: Ravindran, Sriram (advisor), Gajendrareddy, Praveen (committee member), Luan, Xianghong (committee member), Atsawasuwan, Phimon (committee member), Ravindran, Sriram (chair).

▼ Introduction: The purpose of this randomized controlled trial was to evaluate the effect of AcceleDent Aura device on maxillary and mandibular arch alignment and pain during orthodontic treatment with SureSmile. Methods: Seventy-one subjects undergoing non-extraction comprehensive orthodontic treatment with SureSmile were randomly assigned into experimental group that used AcceleDent device and control group that used no additional device. Little’s irregularity index was used to evaluate maxillary and mandibular anterior teeth alignment at four time points – initial, 3 months, 6 months, and 12 month or end of treatment. Pain intensity and compliance with AcceleDent were recorded. Results: Out of total initial sample, data from sixty-one subjects were analyzed. There were no statistical significant differences in the initial upper and lower arches irregularity indices between the two groups, p-value > 0.05. At all follow up time points, the mean irregularity indices were consecutively smaller for both upper and lower arches. Within each group these differences were statistically significant with p-value <0.001. However, the mean differences in irregularity index were not statistically significant between the experimental and control groups at any time points. There was no difference in pain levels between the two groups during initial 3 months of the treatment for the 3 days evaluated; however, pain was significantly lower in the experimental group from the third month until the end of the treatment, p-value = 0.006. Average compliance with AcceleDent use was 78%. Conclusion: The AcceleDent Aura device had no effect on arch alignment. Likewise, device did not have any effect on pain level during initial three months. After 3 months until the end of the treatment, AcceleDent group had significantly less pain compared to the control group during the initial 3 days post-adjustment appointments.

▼ Dental Monitoring™ is a software designed to assist orthodontists in the remote monitoring of orthodontic patients. Dental Monitoring™ software allows patients to take pictures of their teeth through the use of their smartphone. These images are then uploaded to the Dental Monitoring™ platform where a patented algorithm calculates and tracks the current movement of the teeth. This software has the potential for orthodontic patients to have fewer appointments and have better communication with their orthodontist. Despite the potential that this platform can offer, currently there are no studies to validate this technology. To validate this technology, 10 wax typodonts were initially scanned with an iTero® Element™ to produce an initial 3D model that Dental Monitoring™ then used as a baseline for their calculations. Invisalign® trays were then created for each of the 10 wax typodonts; each of the 10 wax typodonts had a series of 10 Invisalign® trays. Once an Invisalign® tray was placed, the typodont was placed in hot water bath set at 45o Celsius for five minutes. After the wax was cooled and the Invisalign® tray was removed, a Dental Monitoring™ photo exam and iTero® scan was taken. The 3D STL file produced from Dental Monitoring™ and the 3D STL file from the iTero® Element™ were then superimposed in GOM™ 3D software to calculate a global deviation from approximately 200,000 surface points between the two models. Results show that there was no clinically significant difference between the reconstructed digital dental models generated by the iTero® Element™ intraoral scanner and reconstructed digital dental models generated by the Dental Monitoring™ application in photo mode. Clinical significance was determined to be 0.5 mm based on the American Board of Orthodontics (ABO) standards of clinical significance. Results did demonstrate a statistically significant difference in global deviations over successive Dental Monitoring™ photo exams. Reconstructed digital dental models produced from Dental Monitoring™ in photo mode did progressively increase in global deviations, therefore becoming less accurate over time. These deviations were not clinically significant and never exceeded the threshold of 0.5 mm.

▼ Dentin organic matrix degradation in caries progression and in hybrid layers is related to endogenous proteolytic activity. Matrix metalloproteases (MMPs) are the main enzymes responsible for collagen breakdown. Hypothesis: Berberine, a plant-derived quaternary ammonium compound will inhibit MMP activity and provide a protective effect against collagen degradation. Objective: The aim of this study is to determine if berberine will have an inhibitory effect on selective recombinant and endogenous MMPs. Methods: Gelatin zymography assays were conducted to assess the inhibitory effect of various concentrations of berberine (AnaSpec) against selective recombinant MMPs. Recombinant MMP-2 and MMP-9 were electrophoresed under non-reducing conditions in 10% SDS-PAGE co-polymerized with 0.2% of fluorescent MDPF-labeled gelatin. Following, gels were incubated with: plain MMPs buffer, MMPs buffer containing 0.02%, 0.002% or 0.0002% berberine, or MMPs buffer containing 2 mM phenantroline. After a 48 hour incubation at 37 °C, images were captured under UV light using Quantity One analysis software (Bio-Rad). Endogenous MMP activity was assessed through quantification of hydroxyproline release. Demineralized human dentin powder samples were treated with one of five different solutions: water, 0.02% berberine, 0.2% berberine, 0.002% chlorhexidine; 0.02% chlorhexidine. Powder specimens were treated with the various solutions for 1 hour at 37° C under agitation. Afterwards, the specimens were washed and then incubated in artificial saliva at 37° C under agitation for a total of 7 days. The amount of hydroxyproline released in supernatant was evaluated at 24 hours, 48 hours, and 7 days. Statistical analysis was performed using two-way and one-way ANOVA and Games Howell post hoc tests (p < 0.05). Results: All berberine concentrations were able to decrease both rMMP-2 and rMMP-9 activities. The higher concentration (0.02%) showed nearly complete inhibition of both recombinant enzymes. No statistical differences in the amount of collagen degradation were observed among the groups treated with berberine as compared to the control group treated with water.
