Publication Metadata only Changes in Nasopharyngeal Airway Following Orthopedic and Surgically Assisted Rapid Maxillary Expansion(2010-03-01T00:00:00Z) Kurt, GÖKMEN; Altug-Atac, Ayse Tuba; Atac, Mustafa Sancar; Karasu, Hakan Alpay; KURT, GÖKMENIntroduction: The aim of this study was to compare changes in soft-palate morphology and nasopharyngeal relations after orthopedic rapid maxillary expansion (RME) and surgically assisted RME (SARME).Publication Metadata only Comparisons of the effects of systemic administration of L-thyroxine and doxycycline on orthodontically induced root resorption in rats(2010-10-01T00:00:00Z) Baysal, Asli; Uysal, Tancan; Ozdamar, Saim; Kurt, Bulent; Kurt, GÖKMEN; Gunhan, Omer; KURT, GÖKMENThe aim of this study was to histologically evaluate and compare the effects of the systemic administration of l-thyroxine (TX) and doxycycline (DX) on orthodontically induced root resorption, Twenty-eight male 50- to 60-day-old Wistar rats were used. Seven rats served as the baseline control. Seven animals received TX (20 mu g/kg bodyweight/day) and seven DX (1.2 mg/kg bodyweight/day), by means of a mini-osmotic pump implanted subcutaneously. Seven rats were separated as a sham, in order to evaluate the pure effect of the surgical procedure on the animals- health. Tooth movement (TM) was achieved with a continuous force of 50 g by placing Elgiloy coil springs between the right maxillary first molar and incisors for 14 days. The animals were sacrificed and specimens containing the appliance and maxillary tooth-bearing segments were processed for light microscopy. The surface area of root resorption lacunae was measured histomorphometrically using digital photomicrographs. To evaluate the resorptive changes on the molar root surface of each group, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) examinations were also carried out. Statistical evaluation of root resorption percentages was performed using Kruskal-Wallis analysis of variance test. Multiple comparisons were determined by the Student-Newman- Keuls method. The level of significance was set at P < 0.05.Publication Metadata only Effects of cell-mediated osteoprotegerin gene transfer and mesenchymal stem cell applications on orthodontically induced root resorption of rat teeth(2017-06-01T00:00:00Z) Amuk, Nisa Gul; Kurt, GÖKMEN; Baran, Yusuf; Seyrantepe, Volkan; Yandim, Melis Kartal; Adan, Aysun; Demir, Secil Akyildiz; Kiraz, Yagmur; Sonmez, Mehmet Fatih; KURT, GÖKMENAim: The aim of this study is to evaluate and compare therapeutic effects of mesenchymal stem cell (MSCs) and osteoprotegerin (OPG) gene transfer applications on inhibition and/or repair of orthodontically induced inflammatory root resorption (OIIRR).Publication Metadata only Evaluation of shear bond strength of metallic and ceramic brackets bonded to enamel prepared with self-etching primer(2010-04-01T00:00:00Z) Uysal, Tancan; Ustdal, Ayca; Kurt, GÖKMEN; KURT, GÖKMENThe bond strength of group 3 (mean: 36.7 +/- 11.8 MPa) was significantly higher than group 4 (mean: 26.6 +/- 8.9 MPa; P 0.05). Compared with conventional acid etching, SEPs significantly decreased the SBS of ceramic orthodontic brackets.Publication Metadata only Incremental versus maximum bite advancement during Herbst therapy response(2019-06-01T00:00:00Z) Amuk, Nisa Gul; Baysal, Asli; Coskun, Ramadan; Kurt, GÖKMEN; KURT, GÖKMEN
