Human tooth movement by continuous high and low stresses
Bibliographic record
Abstract
OBJECTIVE: To compare three-dimensional tooth movements resulting from relatively higher and lower stresses in a split-mouth design. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Eight volunteers whose maxillary first premolars were removed for orthodontic treatment participated. Each subject's maxillary canines were retracted by randomly assigned constant stresses of 78 kPa and 4 kPa via segmental mechanics. Dental casts depicting 8-10 visits per subject over 84 days and a three-axis microscope were used to measure movements serially. Descriptive statistics and mixed linear modeling were applied for data analyses (α = .05). RESULTS: Teeth moved by 78 kPa had significantly faster (P = .0005) distal movement (0.066 ± 0.020 mm/day) compared to teeth moved by 4 kPa (0.031 ± 0.012 mm/day). Lateral movement and distopalatal rotation were also significantly faster (fourfold and 10-fold, respectively) with higher than with lower stress (P < .0001). Average extrusion-intrusion, crown torque, and tip were small (≤ |0.25| mm, |2.29|°, and |1.98|°, respectively), fluctuated, and not significantly different between high and low stresses. No lag phase of tooth movement was evident. CONCLUSIONS: Maxillary canines were retracted faster by 78 kPa than by 4 kPa. Controlled translation was possible with 4 kPa, but 78 kPa outstripped appliance constraints, causing distopalatal rotation.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
