30. Bioprogressive is
Prevalence of Diagnosis
BUT, also…
the prevalence of the result on the mechanic choice
AND, even…
the prevalence of knowledge and research on marketing

recommendations for the application of peripheral
arterial tonometry in children and adolescents

They conclude that Endo PAT which assesses microvascular function provides
a non-invasive method which avoids the user dependence of flow-mediated
dilation (FMD), which evaluates nitric oxide dependent vasodilation in large
vessels

The Quad-Helix has born here!
61. Effects of mandibular incisor intrusion obtained
using a conventional utility arch vs bone anchorage
Esen Aydogdu; Omur Polat Ozsoy
Angle Orthod. 2011;81:767–775
Incisor intrusion that was achieved using an implant-supported
segmented archwire was no different than the movement achieved
with a conventional intrusion utility arch. The only difference
between the two methods was in the molar movement
81. The Bioprogressive
The Principles of Bioprogressive are still the same
The Mechanics Evolves according to the changes in the market
The Mechanic System is not the main problem
Is the “wanted” result the main goal in Bioprogressive
