Download or read book Effects of Unilateral Extraction Treatment on Arch Symmetry and Occlusion written by Theodore William Struhs and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Occlusal asymmetries are common in orthodontic patients. A treatment option for correcting moderate asymmetries is asymmetric extractions. This study evaluated post-treatment dental arch symmetry in patients treated with unilateral premolar extractions. Post-treatment casts of 60 patients were divided into four treatment groups based on the history of occlusal asymmetry and the treatment plan. DesignCAD3000 software (Upperspace Corporation, Pryor, OK) was used to evaluate asymmetrically treated arches for symmetry. The four treatment groups were compared to identify differences in arch asymmetry based on treatment. The lateral incisor and canine were found to be more palatal on the extraction side in patients treated with unilateral extractions (P .001). Arch length increased (P 0.001) and area under the arch decreased (P

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Comprehensive and accessible resource that covers all crucial aspects of dentofacial and occlusal asymmetries Dentofacial and Occlusal Asymmetries covers all crucial aspects of asymmetries encountered in the stomatognathic region regarding diagnosis, treatment planning, management, and prognosis. Divided into three core sections, the first part focuses on the etiology of asymmetry and whether it is congenital or acquired through disease or trauma. The second and third sections go on to discuss localization and management, providing information on topics such as interception, correction, and camouflage. Specific sample topics covered in the book include: Treatment approaches: interceptive, tooth movements, goal-oriented biomechanics, and jaw repositioning Treatment principles: dentofacial orthopedics, camouflage, and orthodontic-surgical treatment Localization and problem list: medical and dental history, clinical examination, dental cast analysis, and radiographic/imaging assessment Medical, social and psychological aspects: growth disorders and helping children and their families with facial differences Written by a team of renowned experts in the field, Dentofacial and Occlusal Asymmetries will serve as an invaluable resource to postgraduates in orthodontic, pediatric dentistry, and oral and maxillofacial surgery programs as well as orthodontists, pediatric dentists, pediatricians, and oral and maxillofacial surgeons aiming for optimal results in the diagnosis and management of these complex malocclusions and dentofacial deformities.

Download or read book Controversies in Clear Aligner Therapy written by Anderson T. Huang and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-07-09 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the first evidence-based evaluation of the present limitations and controversies in clear aligner therapy. It discusses problems in software, mechanotherapy, attachment optimization, interceptive treatment, the mandibular advancement appliance, complex movements, interproximal reduction, extraction therapy, deep bite/open bite correction, finishing, and overcorrection. Unlike current available texts on clear aligner therapy, this book features a nonpartisan, critical analysis of the problems of the technique and demonstrates their clinical implications. Unique solutions to the current limitations of clear aligner therapy are presented, and systematic strategies and protocols for addressing a vast range and complexity of malocclusions commonly confronted by practitioners are introduced. The book helps orthodontists, dentists, dental students, dental educators, technicians, and bioengineers to investigate prevailing misconceptions, and to address significant controversies and dilemmas in clear aligner therapy.

This book was released on 2009 with total page 42 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Introduction: Anchorage and vertical control are some of the limiting factors in orthodontics, and their control is essential for successful orthodontic treatment. The purpose of this retrospective cephalometric study was to quantify the anchorage and vertical control capabilities of the double TPA by comparing Class II patients treated with full fixed appliances (Roth prescription - GAC 022x028 Slot), extraction of maxillary first bicuspid and utilizing double TPAs on first and second molars to a control sample of matched untreated Class II patients. Methods: Pretreatment and post treatment lateral cephalograms were analyzed of 20 patients (10 male and 10 female) from the same orthodontic practice with skeletal Class II malocclusions, characterized by hyperdivergent growth patterns. All of the 20 patients had maxillary first premolar extractions and double TPAs on the maxillary first and second molars. Space closure was done without headgear, utilizing only double key-hole closing loop archwires. The experimental sample was matched to controls from the Michigan and Bolton Brush growth studies. 12 cephalometric variables were identified to evaluate the effect of double TPAs on various skeletal and dental parameters including anchorage and vertical control. Results: Upper first molar horizontal movement in TPA experimental group: U6-PT Vertical=0.9mm, 6-PTV UMKC=1.2mm and H Perp to mestal U6-0.6mm, moved less forward compared to controls. Upper first molar vertical movement in TPA experimental group: U6-PP measurement in the TPA group was 1.9mm less compared to controls. U6-SN measurement was statistically insignificant between the two groups. Conclusions: Double TPAs were shown to effectively hold the anchorage and control the vertical in the treatment of skeletal Class II hyperdivergent patients.

Download or read book EFFECTS OF A LINGUAL ARCH AS MAXIMUM ANCHORAGE IN ORTHODONTICS written by James Cavalancia and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 63 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lingual arches are frequently used in orthodontic extraction treatment, with the intended purpose of achieving maximum anchorage in the mandibular arch; however, little evidence exists in the literature that supports this anchorage approach. The lingual arch is widely supported in the literature for space maintenance and sagittal correction. It has been proven effective at minimizing any decreases in arch depth and perimeter when there is early loss of primary teeth. Theoretically, the lingual arch as a passive maintenance appliance should exert no forces on the teeth, yet studies have shown both the molars and incisors to move. To examine its anchorage efficiency further, we compared incisor and molar position in extraction treatment with and without the use of a lingual arch. Pre and post-treatment cephalograms that included lower premolar extractions were recruited from a depository of images. Canine retraction with power chain or NiTi closing coils with or without the use of a lingual arch for maximum anchorage were compared for incisor and molar position. Angular and millimetric measurements for IMPA, L1-NB, L1-APog and molar mesialization were measured and compared using a t-test. The greatest difference between pre and post-treatment was the IMPA with 5.19° more uprighting of the incisors in the group with no lingual arch, followed by 4.38° more uprighting in the L1-APog measurement. However, none of the differences between the groups were significant: IMPA (p=0.129), L1-NB (angular p=0.161, millimetric p=0.205), L1-APog (angular p=0.197, millimetric p=0.196) and mesialization of the molar (p=0.308). The change in incisor and molar position does not significantly differ with or without the use of a lingual arch in extraction treatment. Clinically, this suggests that the lingual arch does not provide maximum anchorage. Another modality, such as TADs, may provide a better source of anchorage for space closure.

Download or read book Changes in Arch Dimentions Atfer Extraction and non extraction Orthodontic Treatment written by Earl Ari Mac Kriel and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Aim of this study was to determine wheteher there are changes in the interdental arch widths and arch lengths of the madibular and maxillary arches during no-extraction and extraction orthodontic treatment. The records of 78 patients treated by one orthodontist were used for this study. Statistical data analysis included descriptive statistics of the data, analysis of the matrices, Wilcoxon Signed Rank tests and Kruskal-Wallis tests of the changes which occured during treatment. The study concluded that extraction treatment does not necessarily lead to the narrowing of the dental arches in the canine region.
