Impact of molar teeth distalization by clear aligners on temporomandibular joint: a three-dimensional study

Abstract Background Maxillary molar distalization is a common technique used in the non-extraction treatment of Angle Class II malocclusion that can effectively correct the molar relationship and create spaces for anterior teeth alignment. However, this approach may also impact the temporomandibular...
