Burton and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study evaluates the anterior-posterior dental control of orthodontic patients treated with the Damon2 passive self-ligating bracket system. These patients were compared to patients treated with a conventional twin .022 (MBT prescription) bracket system. The Damon2 group (n=30) and the MBT group (n=33) consisted of patients who presented with mild to moderate dental crowding (measured by irregularity index). All patients had full complements of teeth, first molar to first molar, in both maxillary and mandibular arches. They were skeletal and dental Class I and all were orthodontically treated non-extraction. The measurements collected were U1-SN angle, Interincisal angle, IMPA and SN-GoGn. Measurements were taken from pre and post treatment lateral cephalometric head films. Measurements were repeated and paired samples t-tests were used to compare consistency of repeated measures. The t-test was used to compare the treatment change for the above measurements and also to compare the post-treatment results for the measurements. The IMPA treatment changes was also tested for high and low MPA patients in the two treatment groups. Data indicates that there was no significant difference between the two bracket systems with regard to treatment changes for incisor position. A comparison of the post-treatment measurements also shows no significant difference. Finally, no difference was found between the bracket systems for treatment of high and low MPA patients.

Download or read book A Randomised Controlled Clinical Trial to Investigate the Rates of Alignment of the Upper and Lower Labial Segments Rates of Extraction Space Closure in the Upper and Lower Buccal Segments and Treatment Efficiency Using Conventional Active and Passive Self ligating Orthodontic Brackets written by Goldie Tashfeen Butt Songra and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study is composed of three parts. The principal aim was to compare the rate of alignment ofthe upper and lower labial segments using conventional Omni, active In- Ovation R and passive Damon 3MX self-ligating brackets. The second part of this study was to investigate the rate of extraction space closure in the buccal segments for all subjects. The third and final element of this study was to investigate the efficiency of treatment for all three bracket types. 100 eligible subjects undergoing upper and lower fixed appliance treatment with the loss of four premolars were randomly allocated to one of three treatment groups: conventional (Omni) n=20, active (In-Ovation R) n=38 or passive (Damon 3MX) n=42 self-ligating brackets. Study models were taken for all subjects at the start and at twelve week intervals until completion of treatment. The same archwire sequence was used in each case. The labial segment alignment of each study model was measured using a digital Vernier calliper and Little's Index of Irregularity. Once alignment was achieved, space closure was carried out using 150g NiTi coil springs and once again measured using a digital calliper. Analysis of data using linear mixed models demonstrated a significant effect of bracket type on the rate of alignment in the mandible (p=0.026), but not the maxilla (p=0.277). In the mandible, rate of alignment was significantly greater with conventional brackets (Omni). There was no significant difference between the two self-ligating brackets. The rate of space closure was significantly faster in males when compared with females for both the In-Ovation R (p=0.001) and the Omni brackets (p=0.003). This was also found to be the case for Damon 3MX brackets although this was not shown to be statistically significant. The results demonstrated a significant difference between the conventional and the two self- ligating brackets in relation to the total chair side treatment time, with the Omni bracket subjects total treatment time taking on average 50 minutes longer. They also showed a significant difference in the total number of appointments between the In-Ovation R and the Omni bracket (p=0.0009), with the In-Ovation R requiring fewer appointments. In all other analyses there were no significant differences. II.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite the ever-expanding array of orthodontic journals and textbooks available today, too many clinical decisions are based on either anecdotal evidence or the espoused treatment philosophy of the current luminary of the lecture circuit. The authors of this book take an unbiased approach to orthodontics by systematically reviewing the relevant clinical literature and analyzing the scientific evidence to help practitioners select the most effective and efficient modes of treatment. Each chapter addresses a specific topic by summarizing the literature, critically reviewing the evidence, and offering impartial recommendations that can be adopted by clinical practitioners. Topics include Class II and Class III malocclusions, wires and wire sequences, dental asymmetries, causes of root resorption, and retention strategies, among others. This timely text enables busy clinicians to acquire knowledge of the current literature and apply evidence-based orthodontics in their practices.

Download or read book Postural Adaptations in Self Ligating Bracket Treatment written by Brienne Morelle Flagg and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The use of self-ligating brackets has gained popularity recently in orthodontic treatment. The Damon philosophy is a system that employs passive self-ligation with the use of light forces to achieve arch development and to relieve dental crowding. The philosophy of the system is that the use of light forces does not overpower the forces of the lips, tongue, and other peri-oral soft tissue thereby allowing for optimal equilibration of forces that is customized to every individual. If this actually occurs, changes in the posture of the tongue and hyoid would be expected as is seen after orthognathic surgery and rapid maxillary expansion. The purpose of this study was to evaluate if these postural adjustments do occur, and, if they do, to assess if there is a stratification of treatment effect based on dental classification. A customized cephalometric evaluation was designed from an amalgamation of previous cephalometric studies. This cephalometric study not only evaluated changes due to treatment but also assessed changes in cervical postural position to validate the quality of the measurements and to verify that radiographs were taken in a correct and repeatable head position. Cephalometric measurements were correlated with measurements of posterior dental expansion at the premolars and molars. Results of the study showed a correlation in tongue length and hyoid to mandible measurements. Lack of significance in the cervical posture cephalometric changes validated the cephalometric design and the quality of radiograph included in the study. Significant posterior dental expansion was documented although this expansion was limited to the premolar regions. Changes in tongue length correlated with dental expansion, particularly in the lower premolars. Lastly, increases in upper airway space correlated with dental expansion, particularly in Class III patients. This finding is very interesting and suggests the need for further research in this area. Additionally, replication of this study with more subjects may yield very interesting results. Overall, this study supports the fact that studies of soft tissue changes in relation to orthodontic treatment need further investigation as these tissues are involved in the equilibrium of forces and are directly related to the stability of orthodontic treatment.

Download or read book The Value of Self Ligating Brackets in Orthodontics written by Suvetha Siva and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In orthodontics there has been a change in the treatment plan of crowding cases from extraction protocol. This was mainly due to the introduction of self-ligating bracket and temperature activated wires. Even though there are certain exceptions, the self-ligating bracket have evolved in orthodontics because of its advantages such as low friction, shorter treatment duration and increased efficacy. Damon,Äôs self-ligating system has been in existence since 1930 but it has been well developed in the past 30¬†years with the introduction of newer systems. Damon,Äôs self-ligating brackets have been designed to overcome the drawbacks of conventional bracket system and are often considered as the pinnacle of bracket technology. The main advantage of Damon,Äôs system was low friction and shorter treatment duration. But the efficiency of the appliance is influenced by several factors such as Biomechanics, frequency of dental visits and patient comfort. The chapter will highlight the efficiency of the appliance, the various possible outcomes and its influence on the ease of orthodontic therapy.
