Book Maxillary Protraction in Class III Cases

Download or read book Maxillary Protraction in Class III Cases written by Fernaz Mohd Sadiq Behlim and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2013 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Treatment of young Class III patients with maxillary deficiency is generally directed towards achieving positive overjet through a combination of dentoalveolar and skeletal effects. Reverse pull headgear has been used for the protraction of the deficient maxilla in young class III patients, it does not have a positive feedback esthetically and can be an obstruction in daily routine. The short term outcomes of maxillary protraction treatment have been documented limited orthopedic effect on the maxilla, rotation of the mandible and dentoalveolar changes. The long term follow ups of maxillary protraction indicated a 25% to 33% chance of relapse. A significant proportion of patients with maxillary deficient Class III skeletal malocclusion ultimately require orthognathic surgery, any treatment approach that could eliminate the need for, or reduce the extent of, future surgery would be of great benefit to these patients.

Book Treatment of Class Iii Malocclusion Using Active Skeletonized Sutural Distractor Appliance  a Randomized Clinical Trial

Download or read book Treatment of Class Iii Malocclusion Using Active Skeletonized Sutural Distractor Appliance a Randomized Clinical Trial written by Wael Bayomy and published by Partridge Publishing Singapore. This book was released on 2019-10-16 with total page 251 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book describes the scientific evidence for a newly developed ACTIVE SKELETONIZED SUTURAL DISTRACTOR APPLIANCE (ASSD). ASSD appliance where used successfully in a randomized clinical trial that proof its power to correct sever skeletal class III malocclusion. ASSD appliance can be consider a paradigm shift in the treatment of class III malocclusion as it can replace conventional surgical distractor. ASSD can provide adolescent Class III patients with a rapid and comfortable treatment option. It is hoped that this clinically effective, noninvasive and inexpensive treatment will have a significant improvement in the quality of life of those type of patients.

Book The Efficacy of Maxillary Protraction Protocols with and Without Micro implants

Download or read book The Efficacy of Maxillary Protraction Protocols with and Without Micro implants written by Kimberley Wu and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 47 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Objectives: The purpose of this study was to use Finite Element Method (FEM) to simulate various clinical protocols for maxillary protraction with micro-implants, which can provide skeletal changes without the use of surgery. We aim to analyze how location and direction force alters the skeletal effect. Analysis of the skeletal effects can be used to improve clinical protocols for treating class III patients. Methods: A 3-dimensional cranial mesh model with associated maxillary sutures was developed from CT images and Mimics modeling software. Utilizing ANSYS simulation software, protraction forces were applied at different locations and directions to simulate conventional facemask therapy; seven different maxillary protraction protocols utilizing micro-implants. Stress distribution and displacement were analyzed. Video animations and superimpositions were created to illustrate the skeletal effect from varying location and direction of force application. Results: Conventional facemask and facemask from anterior micro-implants at 15° below and 30° above the occlusal plane result in counter-clockwise rotation of the maxillary complex. In contrast, maxillary protraction at 45° below the occlusal plane with anterior or posterior micro-implants displayed clockwise rotation of the maxilla. At 30° below the occlusal plane, Facemask with palatal or anterior micro-implants translated the maxilla downward and forward, while protraction from posterior micro-implants closely resembled pure anterior protraction of the maxilla. Facemask without micro-implants resulted in higher internal stresses, suggesting force dissipation to bone rather than to the sutures. Conclusion: Location of micro-implant placement and direction of pull altered the skeletal response, changing the upward or downward displacement of the maxillary complex, maxillary incisor upward or downward movement, and amount of protraction. Brachyfacial class III patients with a deep bite would benefit from counter-clockwise rotation of the maxilla, resulting in bite opening. Dolicofacial patients with open bite tendency require protraction that minimizes maxillary downward movement. As a result, class III growth modification treatment with micro-implants can be customized for each patient to maximize clinical effectiveness.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Now in full color, this text uses a unique age-specific organization to discuss all aspects of pediatric dentistry from infancy through adolescence. Each age-specific section covers the physical, cognitive, emotional, and social changes that children experience, as well as the epidemiology of dental disease at that age. Other chapters explore the examination, treatment planning, radiographic concerns, prevention, trauma, restorative dentistry, pulp therapy, orthodontics, and behavior management of each age range. Unique organization begins with an introduction to the basic information and topics pertinent to children of all ages, then divides up the rest of the text by age group to cover the specific changes the child experiences physically, cognitively, emotionally, and socially. In most cases, particular dental issues are discussed only once, at the point in a child’s development at which they are most appropriate. Section on children from conception to age three covers conditions such as cleft palate, disturbances in calcification, unusual numbers of teeth, oral habits, caries, and the development of malocclusions that start during these years. Chapter on aesthetic restorative dentistry for the adolescent looks at material selection, tooth color and form, diastemas, discolored teeth, bleaching and more. Chapter on sport dentistry and mouth protection covers how to evaluate child/adolescent athletes, the different types of mouth protection available, and professional activities in sports dentistry. Chapter on the diagnosis of oral lesions and developmental anomalies uses tables and extensive illustrations to depict developmental anomalies, white soft tissue lesions and enlargements, dark soft tissue lesions, ulcerative lesions, radiolucent lesions of bone, mixed radiolucent and radiopaque lesions of bone.
