To establish tooth movement boundaries in four directions by a novel morphometric analysis of alveolar bone using conebeam computed tomography (CBCT) images. The aim was to assist clinicians in minimising the occurrence of bone fenestration and dehiscence, thereby facilitating safe and efficient orthodontic treatment.
