Book Effect of the Bimler Functional Appliance Treatment on Class II Division 1 Patients

Download or read book Effect of the Bimler Functional Appliance Treatment on Class II Division 1 Patients written by Babak Yousefi and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 59 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The effect of the Bimler appliance on the treatment of Class II division I malocclusion is largely unknown, as few if any, independent studies have evaluated the effect of this specific appliance on Class II division I patients. The objective of the present study was to determine the clinical, and skeletal effects of the Bimler functional appliance when it is used to treat Class II division I malocclusions. The data for the present study were obtained from the records of patients treated by Dr Bimler in his private practice which is located in Wiesbaden in Germany. All of the class II division I cases used in the present study were selected randomly from the records compiled by Dr Bimler himself. The Cases were selected until a sufficient number (n=30) of records were collected. The records were selected to represent both sexes (14 males, and 16 females). Cephalometric measurements were made on radiographs taken at the commencement of treatment (T1) and as well as at the completion of treatment (T2). Nine linear and seven angular measurements were evaluated in this study. The average age of all of the patients was nine years and eight months, with the males being approximately two and one half months older than females when treatment was started. Treatment duration was approximately two and one half years for all of patients with the treatment for the male's lasting several weeks longer than the treatment for the females. This difference was not statistically significant (P=0.05). Each mean change was tested using a paired Student's t-test where the null hypothesis was that no change took place in each parameter from T1 to T2. In addition a test was done to determine if the amount of change that occurred was statistically different between the males and the females. Statistically significant changes associated with the Bimler treatment were observed for ten of the 16 measurements recorded. These measurements included the angle ANB, U1-L1 and U1-SN, the linear measurements Co-A, Co-Gn, Ar-Gn, ANS-Me, Wits, L1-Apo and Overjet. In no determination was there a statistically significant difference (ps0.05) between the males and the females. In this study it was concluded that: The clinical overjet was decreased by the increased forward growth of the mandible and by dentoalveolar changes. The Bimler appliance appears to have mainly skeletal effects with a few smaller, but significant, dentoalveolar effects. The appliance had little or no effect on the maxillary skeletal structures.

Book Treatment Effects of the Bimler Functional Appliance on Class II Division 2 Malocclusion

Download or read book Treatment Effects of the Bimler Functional Appliance on Class II Division 2 Malocclusion written by and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 61 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Correction of Class II malocclusion has led clinicians to look at many factors when considering appliance design and its effect on the maxilla, mandible and respective dentoalveolar complex. When considering the armamentarium of orthopedic functional appliances most studies are in agreement concerning their effects on the facial structures while a few are in contradiction. Only few clinicians have utilized functional appliances to successfully correct Class II division 2 malocclusion. The aim of this investigation was thus to provide information on the treatment effects of the Bimler Type B functional appliance on correcting Class II division 2 malocclusions and, specifically, if the resultant treatment effects are different than the effects observed using functional appliances to correct Class II division 1 malocclusions. The sample in this study consisted of twenty-six (26) Class II division 2 patients (9 males, 17 females) treated with the Bimler Type B functional appliance at the practice of Dr. Hans Peter Bimler in Weisbaden, Germany. The records were graciously donated to the orthodontic department at the State University of New York at Buffalo by the daughter of the late Dr. Bimler. For each of the 26 subjects, two lateral cephalograms, one at the time of appliance delivery (T1) and a second at least two years after initiation of treatment (T2) were analyzed using a custom analysis with the following linear and angular measurements: A-NaPerp, Co-A, Co-Gn, Ar-Gn, Pg-NaPerp, ANS-Me, Op-Sn, FMA, U1-SN, IMPA, Wits, OJ, L1-APo. It was determined following statistical analysis and comparison to an untreated control group that the Bimler Type B functional appliance, used specifically for correction of Class II division 2 malocclusions, proclines maxillary incisors (U1-SN) (p>0.05), an effect not seen when using functional appliances for Class II division 1 correction, and potentially inhibits maxillary forward growth (Co-A). However, the results of this study indicate that the appliance does not significantly increase mandibular length (Co-Gn) relative to normal growth, or procline mandibular incisors; the antithesis of the effects seen when treating Class II division 1 malocclusions with functional appliances. Due to the relatively small sample size of this study the true effects of the Bimler functional appliance cannot be fully appreciated. Only with an investigation utilizing a larger sample size, a Class II control population, and a means to measure change in maxillary and mandibular molar sagittal position can one evaluate the true effects of the Bimler Type B appliance in correcting Class II division 2 malocclusions and how these effects differ from those observed when correcting Class II division 1 malocclusions using functional appliances.

Book Twin Block Functional Therapy

Download or read book Twin Block Functional Therapy written by William Clark and published by JP Medical Ltd. This book was released on 2014-09-30 with total page 580 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Twin Block appliances are simple bite blocks that are designed for full-time wear. They achieve rapid functional correction of malocclusion (misalignment of upper and lower teeth) by the transmission of favourable occlusal forces to occlusal inclined planes that cover the posterior teeth. The forces of occlusion are used as the functional mechanism to correct the malocclusion (www.twinblocks.com). Beginning with an introduction to orthodontics and twin blocks, the next chapters describe growth studies and diagnosis and treatment planning. Each of the following sections discusses the use of twin blocks for different types of malocclusion. With a focus on the latest developments in functional therapy, the book offers guidance on diagnosis, treatment planning, case selection, appliance design and clinical management. Written by the internationally recognised Orthodontist William Clark from Fife, UK, who also invented Twin Blocks, this comprehensive guide includes nearly 600 clinical photographs and illustrations. Key points Comprehensive guide to use of Twin Blocks in treatment of malocclusion Focus on latest developments in functional therapy Written by UK-based inventor of Twin Blocks Includes nearly 600 images and illustrations
