Abstract
Reports have shown that molars can be distalized successfully with virtually no orthodontic anchorage loss with an intraosseous anchorage, even with fully erupted second molars. The purpose of this study was evaluating the effects of mini-screws as skeletal anchorage for upper molar distalization. In this case series, three patients needing maxillary first molar distalization, were selected. mini-screw was inserted in the anterior part of the palate. The screws were anchored to the first premolars by transpalatal arch and immediately loaded (150-160 g) by 0.018-inch arch-wire and steel open-coil spring to distalize maxillary molars. The skeletal and dental changes were measured on cephalograms obtained before and after distalization. The amount of first molar distalization in the patients was 4 mm with 2°of tipping, 4 mm with 5°of tipping, and 3.5 mm with 2°of tipping respectively. Upper incisors and first premolars were stable during distalization.

Abstract
Introduction: Biochemical markers play an important role in the growth and repair of bone and can be evaluated in different biological fluids. Therefore, the aim of this study was to evaluate the level of insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) in urine as a puberty index and to compare it with cervical vertebral maturational stages (CVMSs) in lateral cephalometry.
Materials&Methods: In this cross-sectional study, 50 8-18-year-old patients (males and females), referred to Faculty of Dentistry with CVMS of 2 to 6 and needed orthodontic treatment as well as lateral cephalometry were selected. All of these patients were healthy. The CVMSs were recorded based on lateral cephalometric radiographs and urinary levels of IGF-I was determined using a urine-based ELISA kit. Mean IGF-I values for each CVMS were analyzed by Mann-Whitney, Kruskal-Wallis and Chi-square tests in SPSS. P<0.05 was statistically considered as significant level.
Results: In this study, the mean age of participants, ranged from 8 to 18 years was 12.96±3.82. There was no statistically significant difference in gender distribution between CVM groups (P=0.106). The level of urinary IGF-I had no significant difference between groups, except for CVMS3 group (P=0.073). In CS3, the mean urinary IGF-I level was 0.2727, representing a significant difference from other groups (P=0.000). IGF-I levels had no significant differences between males (0.03±0.04) and females (0.08±0.011), (P=0.492).
Conclusion: The highest urinary IGF-I level was found in both genders in CVMS 3 and 4, which coincided with peak growth spurt in patients.

Abstract
Introduction: The aim of this study was to determine satisfaction in patients undergoing orthodontic treatment in the orthodontics department of Babol Dental Faculty.
Materials & Methods: Totally, 76 participants answered to a self-administrated questionnaire, categorized into 4 sections: "physician- patient relationship”, “social – mental improvement”, “admittance and environment-related factors”, “patients’ overall experience of treatment”. The answer to each question was scored in 5 levels from “completely disagree” with -2 scores to “completely agree” with +2 scores. Positive scores (+1 and +2) to questions were considered as high satisfaction.
Results: Generally, 90% of participants reported high scores of satisfaction with “patient-physician relationship”, 75% with “environmental factors”, 72% with “overall experience of treatment” and finally 60% of them had high satisfaction with “social-mental improvement”.
Conclusion: A high level of satisfaction was reported by orthodontic patients in orthodontics department of Babol Dental Faculty.
