Implication

Observational analysis reveals associations between curve of Spee modifications and TMJ changes in patients, suggesting implications for orthodontic treatment.

Key Points

Significant reductions in posterior joint space were found for patients with mild curve of Spee modifications.
Condylar length increased significantly in patients with deeper curve of Spee, indicating osseous remodeling.
Changes associated with curve of Spee modifications remain within physiological limits after clear aligner therapy.
Results imply tailored orthodontic interventions may be necessary based on initial curve of Spee depth.
