 + values indicate extrusion of teeth (× 10−2 mm); − values indicate intrusion of teeth (× 10−2 mm); E, tooth extrusion based on the occlusal plane; I, tooth intrusion based on the occlusal plane; 1, central incisor; 2, lateral incisor; 3, canine; 5, second premolar; 6, first molar; 7, second molar; the relative incisor extrusion is calculated based on the displacement differences between the central incisors and posterior teeth (the second premolar and the first molar) in the vertical direction
