Book The Effects of an Anterior Bolton Discrepancy on the Long Term Stability of Lower Incisors

Download or read book The Effects of an Anterior Bolton Discrepancy on the Long Term Stability of Lower Incisors written by Michelle Burlingame and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 77 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Relapse in the form of lower incisor crowding is a significant concern to the practicing orthodontist as it tends to be a frequent complication following treatment. Many orthodontists now routinely recommend permanent retention to their patients due to the fact that lower incisor crowding is prominent and unpredictable. It has yet to be evaluated if an Anterior Bolton Discrepancy has an affect on lower incisor relapse. The present study will evaluate if there is a correlation between Anterior Bolton Ratio and long term lower incisor stability. Subjects included 30 cases treated by Dr. R.G. "Wick" Alexander with records available on average 11 years post retention. In the first measurement protocol the mesiodistal widths of all anterior teeth on maxillary models were recorded. Measurements were then recorded for mandibular anterior teeth before and after interproximal reduction. Actual tooth width reduction was measured in millimeters.^Anterior Bolton Ratios were then calculated for each case before and immediately following interproximal reduction. In the second measurement protocol, Little's Irregularity Index was calculated at Initial Records, Final Records, and Post Retention Records. The difference between the values at Final Records and Post Retention Records were used as a measure of relapse in the form of mandibular anterior crowding. The correlation between Anterior Bolton Discrepancy and lower incisor relapse was analyzed by the Pearson correlation. The group was then divided into 2 groups based on having above or below normal Anterior Bolton Ratios. The intergroup differences in lower incisor relapse in the form of crowding were then analyzed using the Independent t test. It was found that Dr. Alexander routinely reduces tooth structure between the mandibular canines by an average of 1.05mm and, in this sample, ranged from 0.23mm to 2.82mm.^An average of 1.47mm (SD = 1.60) of relapse in the form of crowding was found to have occurred within the post retention time. The values ranged from -1.21mm (improvement) during the time to 5.91mm (relapse). The value of a patient's Anterior Bolton Ratio was found to have a strong positive correlation with the amount of lower incisor relapse (r= 0.5). In addition the group with below average Anterior Bolton Ratios was found to have significantly less lower incisor relapse than the group with above average ratios (p= 0.001).

Download or read book Tooth Movement written by A. Kantarci and published by Karger Medical and Scientific Publishers. This book was released on 2015-11-24 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the intention of improving the rate, quality, and stability of orthodontic tooth movement, those in the field are now moving toward accomplishing this 'acceleration' with minimally or non-invasive methods. New procedures have been widely tested in humans, animal models, and in vitro. While interest is growing both in the industry and at the clinical level, the understanding of the biology is limited. Considering that a simple increase in force will result in tooth morbidity and arrest of the tooth migration, a multi-disciplinary approach is critical for success. This publication brings together multi-disciplinary expertise on a wide variety of processes related to and involved in orthodontic tooth movement. The premise is that, by better understanding the biological structures and the mechanism through which they respond to biomechanical forces, one can get a better assessment of the 'acceleration'. This work presents research aimed at an improved understanding of conventional and accelerated orthodontic tooth movement from a biological perspective and will be of great value to clinicians, researchers, academics, and students.

Book Orthodontic Management of the Dentition with the Preadjusted Appliance

Download or read book Orthodontic Management of the Dentition with the Preadjusted Appliance written by John C. Bennett and published by ISIS Medical Media. This book was released on 1997 with total page 398 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The field of orthodontics has conventionally been considered as the management of the dentition in its entirety. And yet most orthodontic cases can be seen as the composite of problems associated with the orientation and development of individual teeth. Previous texts have described the techniques and appliances used in both extraction and non-extraction cases, but never before have these been discussed in terms of the treatment mechanics of each tooth involved. This work focuses on these aspects of the orthodontic management of the dentition.
