Issue Highlights IntroductionSteven J LindauerDOI: https://doi.org/10.1053/j.sodo.2020.06.006Vol. 26, Issue 3, p107 109PreviewFull-Text HTMLPDFxTwenty-five years ago, the first volume of Seminars in Orthodontics was launched, appropriately with the very first issue entitled “Biomechanics and Appliance Design”. It was guest-edited by my mentor, Dr. Robert J Isaacson, who passed away 2 years ago (September 2018). I am proud to say that I was actively involved in creating that issue and that I was able to work alongside Bob for 12 of the best years of my life. The current issue on “Contemporary Topics in Biomechanics” is dedicated to him and to the other 3 notable male mentors who influenced my career decisions and the absolutely amazing life I have been able to enjoy in orthodontics and academics for the past 30+ years.The six geometries revisited: History, terminology and applicationsGustavo Hauber GameiroDOI: https://doi.org/10.1053/j.sodo.2020.06.007Vol. 26, Issue 3, p110 116PreviewFull-Text HTMLPDFxCharles Burstone (1928–2015) is recognized as the father of scientific biomechanics applied to orthodontics. He published hundreds of scientific articles and several textbooks on the topic and their clinical relevance is unquestionable. However, the complexity and knowledge required related to mechanical engineering hinder not only understanding of the concepts, but also their application in various clinical settings. This article revisits six classic manuscripts of Burstone to clarify the technical terms and biomechanical foundation of force-driven orthodontics.Mechanics to Enhance Facial and Smile EstheticsAndre Wilson MachadoDOI: https://doi.org/10.1053/j.sodo.2020.06.008Vol. 26, Issue 3, p117 125PreviewFull-Text HTMLPDFxThe parameters for achievement of treatment success sometimes differ between patients and orthodontists, while patients focus on esthetics, orthodontists usually emphasize occlusal criteria. Although smile esthetics is an extensive topic, clinicians must understand the main principles of an ideal smile in order to use the appropriate orthodontic mechanics to enhance facial and smile esthetics. The objectives of this paper are: 1) to review the two main principles of a beautiful and youthful smile to guide the clinician to visualize the main esthetic goals of orthodontic treatment, and 2) to present two clinical situations where appropriate orthodontic mechanics were used to obtain optimal facial and smile esthetics results. Each issue provides up-to-date, state-of-the-art information on a single topic in orthodontics. Readers are kept abreast of the latest innovations, research findings, clinical applications and clinical methods. A collection of the issues will provide invaluable reference material for present and future review.
