Declining or Waning
- Traditional Fixed Appliances:
Research on conventional fixed orthodontic appliances has decreased as newer technologies, such as clear aligners and self-ligating systems, gain popularity and demonstrate improved patient outcomes. - Basic Cephalometric Analysis:
While cephalometric analysis remains important, there is a noticeable decline in studies relying solely on traditional cephalometric techniques, with a shift towards more comprehensive 3D imaging methods. - Manual Techniques in Orthodontics:
The focus on manual orthodontic techniques and subjective assessments is waning as digital technologies and automated systems offer more precise and objective measures for treatment planning. - Surgical Orthodontics in General:
There appears to be a decrease in the volume of studies solely focused on surgical orthodontics, possibly due to increasing emphasis on nonsurgical methods and less invasive treatment protocols. - Historical Perspectives on Orthodontic Practices:
Research that reviews historical practices or techniques in orthodontics is becoming less common, as the field moves towards contemporary evidence-based approaches.
