The inflection point: a torque reference for lingual bracket positioning on the palatal surface curvature of the maxillary central incisor
Abstract Background Contrary to buccal orthodontics, lingual orthodontics has no reference for vertical bracket positioning on the maxillary central incisor. The aim of this study was to provide a reference point in relation to torque for lingual bracket positioning on the palatal surface curvature...
