Angle Orthod . 2009 May; 79(3):540-5. PMID: 19413375
Objective: To test the null hypothesis that early headgear (HG) treatment has no effect on the eruption pattern of the maxillary canines in the early mixed dentition. Materials And Methods:...

Am J Orthod Dentofacial Orthop . 2009 May; 135(5):586-96. PMID: 19409341
Introduction: The purpose of this longitudinal randomized investigation was to determine the long-term changes in the soft-tissue profile during orthodontic treatment when treatment is started with headgear (HG) in the...

Krusinskiene V, Kiuttu P, Julku J, Silvola A, Kantomaa T, Pirttiniemi P
Eur J Orthod . 2008 Jul; 30(4):418-24. PMID: 18632838
The purpose of this investigation was to assess the long-term occlusal stability in a group treated early with headgear (HG) compared with a control group. The total study group comprised...

Papachristou D, Pirttiniemi P, Kantomaa T, Agnantis N, Basdra E
Eur J Orthod . 2005 Dec; 28(1):20-6. PMID: 16373449
The chondrocytes of the articular condylar cartilage proliferate, hypertrophy and ultimately undergo apoptosis (programmed cell death), being replaced by osteoblasts. Converging results consolidate activator protein-1 (AP-1) transcription factor as the...

Papachristou D, Pirttiniemi P, Kantomaa T, Papavassiliou A, Basdra E
Histochem Cell Biol . 2005 Jul; 124(3-4):215-23. PMID: 16041628
Chondro-osteogenesis and subsequently skeletal morphology are greatly influenced by mechanical loads. The exact mechanism(s) by which mechanical stimuli are transduced in chondrocytes remains obscure and appears to be equally complex...

Pirttiniemi P, Kantomaa T, Sorsa T
Eur J Orthod . 2004 Mar; 26(1):1-5. PMID: 14994876
The aim of this study was to measure the effect of decreased temporomandibular loading on the proliferative activity and the level of matrix production of the condylar cartilage. The effect...
