Evaluation of the efficacy of clear aligners in mandibular advancement and their effect on mandibular trabecular structures using fractal dimension analysis
The FD-A results revealed no significant alterations in the trabeculation of the mandibular bone in the treatment group. These findings suggest that MA treatment with aligners primarily contributes to dental correction rather than inducing changes in the skeletal structure and trabeculation of the mandibular bone.
