Orthodontic Diagnosis Jaspal Singh een Shape of Head ‘+ Mesocephalic-A head of medium proportion with a cephalic index of 76.0 to 80.9. + Dolichocephalic-A relatively long, narrow head with a cephalic index below 76. ‘+ Brachycephalic-A short, broad head with a cephalic index of 81 to 85. + Hyperbrachycephalic round or broad head with a cephalic index of more than 85. Shape of Face ‘+ Buryprosopic-A short or broad face or both with a facial index of 80-85. ‘+ Mesoprosopic-A face of average width with a facial index of 84. 0 to 87.9. ‘+ Leptoprosopic-Long narrow face with a facial index of 88.0 to 92.9. ‘+ Hyperleptoprosopic-A long narrow face with a facial index of 93 or more. + Hypereuryprosopic-A very short broad face with a facial index below 80. * Facial profile-Refers to sagittal outline form of face. It is viewed from the side with patient's Frankfort horizontal plane parallel to the floor. On the photograph, it can be obtained by line joining the forehead and soft tissue point A and line joining point A and soft tissue pogonion. + Straight facial profile is one where line joining the forehead to soft tissue point A and line joining point A to soft tissue pogonion form a straight line * Convex profile is one where line joining the forehead to soft tissue point A and line joining point A to soft tissue pogonion form an acute angle with concavity towards the tissue. Eg, in Class Il div. * Concave profile- is one where line joining the forehead to soft tissue point A and line joining point A to soft tissue pogonion form obtuse angle with convexity facing the tissue. F.g, Class Il. + Facial divergence is the inclination of the lower face relative to the forehead. It is determined by a line joining the forehead and chin. ‘+ Anterior divergence-If the line joining forhead to chin is inclined anteriorly. + Posterior divergence-The line joining forhead to chin is inclined posteriorly. ‘+ Straight facial divergence—The line joining forhead to chin is straight. * Lip incompetence- The lips are said to be incompetent when the lips are unconsciously apart at the mandibular rest position and when the lips are consciously in contact, the lower lip shows an excessive contraction. * Lip competency is defined as the ability of the lip to make an oral seal covering the teeth. * Curve of spee is the anteroposterior curvature of occlusal surfaces. It begins at the tip of the lower cuspid and touches the buccal cusp tips of all the mandibular posterior teeth and continues to the anterior border of the ramus. The pull of the main muscle of mastication, the masseter, is at a perpendicular angle with the curve of Spee to adapt for favorable loading of force on the teeth, It is of importance to orthodontists as it may contribute to an increased overbite. + Curve of wilson-The curve of Wilson is the mediolateral curve that contacts the buccal and lingual cusp tips of each side of the arch. It results from the inward inclination of the lower posterior teeth ‘Curve of Monson~The curve of occlusion in which each cusp and incisal edge touch or conform to a segment of the surface of a sphere eight inches in diameter, with its center in the region of the glabella. Orthodontic Diagnosis 635 Vy) ‘Orthodontic Diagnosis and diagnostic tools * Diagnosis in orthodontics is made through a careful evaluation of case history, clinical examination radiographic analysis, including the cephalometric analysis, study model analysis, mixed dentition analysis. ‘+ Other supplemental diagnostic aids which may be useful in making the orthodontic diagnosis include, photograph, diagnostic set up, occlusogram, hand wrist radiograph, electromyographic examination of muscle activity, computed axial tomography, agnatic resonance imaging, + Extraoral examination is done in order to make the assessment of the size and shape of the head, facial form, facial symmetry, facial profile facial divergence, facial height, shape and size of the nose, nasolabial angle, size, shape and competency of lips. ‘+ Intraoral examination-Includes the examination of soft and hard tissue, The soft tissue examination includes the ‘examination of the gingiva, frenal attachment, tongue, palate floor of the mouth. Hard tissue examination includes the assessment ofthe type of dentition, overjet, over bite, occlusion, midline shift, interincisal distance, freeway space, path Of closure, breathing pattern, swallowing pattern, assessment of speech. sofuopoyHo Diagnostic aids in orthodontics ‘= Radiograph-Panorex * Cephalometric radiograph and analysis * Photograph Study model analysis * Permanent dentition analysis-Pont’s analysis, Linder Harth index, Korkhaus analysis, Ashley Howe's analysis, Wayne ‘A. Bolton analysis, Carey's analysis and Arch perimeter analysis, ‘+ Pont’s analysis —involve the measurement of four maxillary incisors to establish the width of the arch in the premolar and molar region ~ The greatest width of incisors is measured with calipers. The combined width is termed as “sum of incisors” (SD) = The distance between the right and left upper first premolar is recorded and is called as “measured premolar value” (MPV) ~ The distance between the upper right first molar and upper left first molar is recorded and is termed as “measured molar value” (MMV). six 100 ~ The calculated premolar value is calculated by the formula: s1x100 ~ Caleulated molar value: = The difference between the measured and calculated values determines the need for expansion. If the measured value is less, there is need of expansion. The analysis does not take skeletal malrelationship into consideration and cannot be used if anterior teeth are missing. Linder harth index is similar to Pont’s analysis. In linder harth index, there isa variation in the formula to determine the calculated molar value. Itis calculated as follow: 1x10 + Calculated premolar value: 35 s1x100 * Calculated molar value: 7 Ashley howe’s analysis involves the following calculation ‘+ Total tooth material is sum of the mesiodistal width of the teeth from first molar to first molar. + Basal Arch Length(BAL)-It is the perpendicular distance from the tangent drawn on the distal aspect of the first permanent molar to the anterior limit of the arch. + Premolar Diameter(PMD) is the arch width measured from the buccal cusp tips of the first premolar on one side to the buccal cusp tip on other side + Premolar Basal Ach Width(PMBAW) is the diameter of the apical base from the canine fossa of one side to canine fossaf other side, fe) = = el 3 S ‘YW 636 Comprehensive Review of Clinical Dental Sciences * To assess if the apical bases of the patient could accommodate the patients teeth, the following measurement are made: 1. IfPMBAW > PMD: It an indication that basal arch is sufficient to allow expansion of premolar. 2. If PMD > PMBAW: There can be three possibilities a. Contraindication for expansion, b. Move teeth distally. Extract some teeth, 3. If PMBAV is less than 37% of the maxillary tooth diameter, the extraction is definitively required: a. if the value is 44%. It isan ideal case and extraction is not required. b, if between 37 to 44% (border line case), the extraction may or may not be required. Orthodontics ‘= Bolton analysis is used to determine disproportion in size between maxillary and mandibular teeth, This analysis involves the following measurement: 1.

Different system of classification of malocelusion Angle's classification of malocclusion-In 1890, Edward H. Angle published the first classification of malocclusion. The classifications is based on the mesio-distal relation of the teeth, dental arches and jaws. The maxillary first permanent molar is considered as fixed anatomical point and as key to occlusion. Angle classified malocclusion into three classes. ‘= Class I- The mesiobuccal cusp of the maxillary first Permanent molar occluces in the buccal groove of the mandibular first permanent molar. © Class Il-The distobuccal cusp of the maxillary first Permanent molar occludes in the buccal groove of the mandibular first permanent molar. © Class I division 1~The maxillary incisor teeth are proclined or in labioversion. ‘Class II division 2- The maxillary lateral incisor are tipped labially or mesially and maxillary central incisors in near ‘normal anterioposterior position are slightly in linguo version. ‘© Class Il subdivision js a condition in which a class If molar relationship exists on one side of dental arch and class Ion other side + Class I ~The mesiobuccal cusp of the maxillary first permanent molar occludes in the interdental space between permanent mandibular first molar and second molar. ‘Pseudo class IIT is the habitual anterior positioning of the mandible due to premature contact of the teeth or some other reason when the jaws are brought together in centric occlusion. Drawbacks of angle’s classification 1L. Permanent molars are considered as fixed points within the jaws but these are not. 2. Classification is not possible if first permanent molar are missing. 3, Tt cannot be used in primary dentition. 4, Malocclusion in the transverse and vertical planes and individual tooth malrelationship are not considered. 5, Classification does not differentiate between skeletal and dental malocclusion. Dewey's modification of angle’s classification Modification of angle's class |: ‘Type 1: Crowding in maxillary anterior teeth. ‘Type 2: Proclination of maxillary incisor ‘Type 3: Anterior crossbite Type 4: Posterior crossbi ‘Type 5: Permanent molars are in mesioversion due to premature loss of teeth mesial to them. ‘Moalfications of angle’s class Ill + Type 1: Individual arches when viewed individually are in normal alignment, but when in occlusion the anterior are in edge to edge bite. «Type 2: The mandibular incisors are crowded and lingual to the maxillary incisors. + Type 9: Maxillary incisors are crowded and in crossbite.

Simon's classification:Simon has given craniometic classification of malocclusion that relate the dental arches to the face and cranium in the three planes of space-i.e. Frankfort horizontal plane, Orbital plane and Median Sagittal plane * Frankforthorizontal plane-F-H plane classifies the malocclusion in vertical plane. The plane connects the upper margins of the external auditory meatus to the infraorbital margin. The term used to describe abnormal relation of teeth to this plane are 1. Attractions-When the dental arch or part of this is closer to the F-H plane 2. Abstraction- When a dental arch or part of it is further away from the F-H plane. * Orbital plane is perpendicular to the F-H plane. This plane should pass through the distal third of the upper canine. This, is called simon’s law of canine. + The orbital plane is used to classify malocclusion in anteroposterior or sagittal plane 1, Protraction-The dental arches are placed farther or forward from the plane. 2 Retraction-Dental arches are placed posterior or closer to the plane. + Median sagittal plane-Define malocclusion in transverse plane as: 1. Contraction-A part or all ofthe dental arch is closer towards the median sagittal plane. 2. Distraction-A part oral of the dental arch is placed away from the mid-sagittal plane. ‘+ Skeletal classification Salzmann in 1950 was the frst to classify malocclusion on skeletal structure basis. Skeletal class 1 Skeletal cass 2 and Skeletal class 3. *+ Skeletal class 1- Malocclusion were purely dental with the bones of the face and jaws being in harmony with one another and with the rest of the head. The profile is further divided as: ~ Division 1: Local malrelations of incisors, canine and premolars. ~ Division 2: Maxillary incisors protrusion. ~ Divison 3: Maxillary incisor in linguoversion. = Division 4: Bimaxillary protrusion. + Skeletal class 2-These include malocclusion with a subnormal distal mandibular development inxelation to the maxilla. It further divided into two division. Division 1-The maxillary dental arch is narrower with crowding in the canine region. The cross bile may be present and the vertical face height is decreased. The profile is retrognathic. Division 2~The maxillary incisors are lingually inclined and the lateral incisors may be normal or in labioversion, ‘Skeletal class 3-Itis characterized by an overgrowth of the mandible with an obtuse angle. 5 2 = Pe 2 © = SEC Classification and Etiology of Malocctusion 645 Wil) = Ackerman-profitt system of classification-Classify malocclusions in three planes of space.

Tooth movement produced when single force is applied. The tooth rotates around its center of resistance producing diagonal opposite areas of compression and tension within the periodontal ligament. During tipping the crown of the tooth moves much more than does the root ‘Translation or bodily movement of the tooth-In this type of movement, crown and root are moved in the same direction at the same time. Rotation-The movement of the tooth around its long axis. Ibis a difficult type of tooth movement to correct and retain. ‘There is high relapse risk with rotation because of presence of elastic fibers in supra alveolar tissue. Intrusion-The movement of the tooth in an apical direction. This movement requires very light forces. Extrusion-The movement ofthe tooth in an occlusal or incisal direction. This is the easiest of all movements. ‘Torque-The movement of the root with minimal movement of crown. + Uprighting-The orthodontic tooth movernent results from the consistent force or pressure application on the healthy tooth. iii 652 comprehensive Review of Ginical Dental Sciences 8 e 5 3 8 2 = 6 ‘Theories of tooth movement * Pressure tension theory of Schwarz~This is the simplest and the most widely accepted theory.

The pressure zone is characterized by ‘compression of periodontal ligament and subsequent bone resorption on the side of the pressure. On the side of the tension, there occurs stretching of the periodontal ligament and subsequently apposition or deposition of the bone. * Fluid dynamic or blood flow theory-This theory was proposed by Bein. According to this theory, the tooth movement occurs as result of alterations in fluid dynamics of the periodontal ligament. When an orthodontic force is applied, it leads to compression of the vasculature of periodontal ligament on the Pressure side, with the subsequent stenosis of the blood vessels. The blood vessels beyond the stenosis balloons up, resulting in the formation of aneurysms. The formation of the aneurysm causes the escape of the blood gases out of the vessels into the interstitial spaces. This alteration create a favorable environment far resorption and cellular activity. *+ Piezoelectric theory~This theory is of view that piezoelectric phenomenon is observed in the crystalline structure of the bone. Piezoelectric phenomenon is seen in collagen, hydoxyapatite, collagen-hydroxyappatite interface and mucopolysaccharide component of the ground substance. Peizoelectric phenomenon is flow of electric current on application of force to the crystalline structure. ‘On application of orthodontic farce, the adjacent alveolar bone bends. The cancave area of the deformed bone is associated with negative charge and the bone deposition. The convex area of the deformed bone are associated with positive charge and bone resorption. Phases of the tooth movement * Initial phase is characterized by a sudden displacement of the tooth within its socket. + Lag phase is characterized by no or very litle tooth movement. The lag phase is more longer if heavy forces are applied as more hyalinized area is created. + Post-lag phase is characterized by removal of the hyalinized area and the subsequent tooth movement. ‘= Frontal and undermining resorption * Frontal resorption is seen on the application of the lighter orthodontic forces which leads to slight compression of the Periodontal ligament with intact or patent blood vessels. There occurs litle or no hyalinization, The frontal resorption occurs in the bone immediately adjacent to the ligament. Frontal resorption facilitates orthodontic tooth movement * Undermining bone resorption is seen on application of heavy forces. The heavy force application result in compression of the blood vessels which leads to a gradual shrinkage of the periodontal ligament, with sterile necrosis of cellular structure of periodontal ligament. The area of necrosis have diminished cellularity and are avascular. These are known as hyalinized area, The adjacent undamaged periodontal ligament begin to invade the hyalinized area and the osteoclasts within the adjacent bone marrow spaces begin to remove the bone adjacent to the necrotic periodontal ligament. This process is known as undermining resorption, since the resorplion is from the underside of the lamina dura rather than the periodontal as in frontal resorption. The tooth movement occur following a lag phase, only when the hyalinized tissue disappear. Undermining resorption impedes orthodontic tooth movement. Type of orthodontic forces * Continuous force is the consistent force which is maintained in the subsequent visit of the patient. Such forces are generated by means of spring or elastics, ‘+ Interrupted force are the one in which the force level decline to zer0 after activations. This type of force is produced by certain appliances including the screws. *+ Intermittent force-Ccharacterized by force level declining abruptly to zero intermittently when the orthodontic appliances are removed by the patient. Such force applications are seen with removable appliances, and headgear. * Optimum orthodontic force is the force which produces tooth movement through frontal resorption with minimum tissue damage. The optimum force should maintain the vitality and patency of the periodontal ligament. The calculated ‘optimum orthodontic force is equivalent to capillary pressure or 20-26 gm/sq. cm of the root surface areas. With this foxce application the tooth movement rate equals to 1 mm per month. * Center of resistance-A point at which resistance fo movement can be concentrated for mathematical analysis. The center of resistance of the single rooted tooth is between one third and one half of the root length apical to the alveolar crest. In multirooted teeth, the center of resistance lies between the roots 1-2 mm apical to the fuzcation. The center of resistance varies with the root length, alveolar bone height and the no of roots. Center of resistance is the most important parameter for the adjustment of a desired movement in orthodontic treatment. Center of rotation is a point around which rotation occurs when an object is being moved. This point will vary depending on the force /moment/couple being applied. ‘Moment-A moment isa force acting ata distance from the Center of resistance. A moment is produced when the line of action of a force is at a distance from the center of resistance, the force will produce some rotation. The moment will cause some rotation and translation. The magnitude of a moment = Force x Distance. ‘Torque is a force system. Itis produced by torsion in an arch wire that ereates a couple when interacted with a bracket slot, which is the result of twist in the wire compared to the bracket slot. In orthodontics mechanics, 3rd order twist n the arch wire only produces a couple (torque). When a single force without a couple is applied to a tooth, the apex moves in the opposite direction of the applied force. When a single force is combined with a couple, the tooth spins about a center Of rotation apical to its center of resistance. ‘Wal 654 Comprehensive Review of Clinical Dental Sciences g = 6 3 8 2 = 6 Q. 1.

Sources of Anchorage Intraoral-Teeth, oral mucosa, underlying bone , implants, + Extraoral-Head, occipital bone , parietal bone, cervical area, facial bone and chin, ‘Types of Anchorage ** Stationary anchorage is one in which the manner and application of force tend to displace the anchorage unit bodily in the plane of the space in which the force is applied. Example of stationary anchorage is the retraction of maxillary incisors, using the first molars as the anchorage unit, + Simple anchorage is one in which the manner and application of force is such that it tends to change the axial inclination, of the tooth or teeth that form the anchorage unit in the plane of space in which the force is applied. Example of simple anchorage -retraction of upper teeth with the hawleys appliance, the movement of a single tooth using screw appliance. * Reciprocal anchorage is one in which the resistance of one or more dental units is utilized to move one or more opposing dental units. Example-Crossbiteelastis- to correct molar cross bite closure of midline diastema and expansion appliances + Intraoral anchorage is one in which all the resistance unit are situated in the oral cavity + Extraoral anchorage is one in which one of the anchorage unit is situated extraorally * Intramaxillary anchorage~All the anchorage unit are within the same jaw. + Intermaxillary anchorage-The resistance unit or anchorage from one jaw is used to effect tooth movement in the opposite jaw. Intermaxillary anchorage is also known as baker's anchorage. ‘+ Multiple anchorage or reinforced anchorage-Anchorage utilizing more than one type of anchorage unit. Example- The use of head gear along with routine mechanotherapy or extraoral anchorage, the intra arch compound anchorage or the use of a transpalatal arch in fixed mechanotherapy single or primary anchorage. Factor affecting anchorage * Tooth factor-The variation in size, shape, length, periodontal support of the teeth are the factor which can influence the individual anchoring potential ofthe teeth * Root form of the teeth-The roots of al the teeth may have either Round, flat and triangular shape or form. The round root form can tense 50 percent of the periodontal fibers to resist force. The resistance is same in all the direction. Flat root can also tense 50 percent of their periodontal fiber. They resist the tooth movement better in mesiodistal direction . The resistance in buccolingual direction is comparatively less. ‘The triangular root can tense two third of their periodontal fiber and provide better anchorage. * Size of roots-The longer or larger root have more anchorage potential ‘+ Number of roots-The multirooted teeth have greater surface area and due to the reason, have greater anchorage potential Root formation-Incompletely formed root have less anchorage potential Position of the tooth-The respective position of the tooth within the arch can influence the anchorage potential of the ‘teeth. For example the mandibular second premolar due to its location between extemal oblique ridge and mylohyoid sidge have a better anchorage potential. ‘Tooth inclination-The teeth inclined in a direction opposite to the force applied have a better anchorage potential. Contact points-Teeth with wide, tight and broad contact exert greater anchorage potential. Intercuspation of the teeth-Good intercuspation result in better anchorage. Tripod arrangement of roots in maxillary molar increases the anchorage potential of the maxillary molar. ‘The round palatal root resists the extrusion, while the fat buccal roots resist intrusion and the mesiodistal stresses. ‘The basal bone (hard palate and lingual surface of the mandible), cortical bone and musculature may be used to augment the anchoring potential of the anchorage unit. Individual anchoring potential ofthe teeth in order of decreasing anchoring potential—Mandibular molars>maxillary ‘cuspids>mandibular cuspids>maxillary molars>maxillary central>mandibular bicuspids>maxillary bicuspids> maxillary laterals>mandibular centrals and laterals. “Anchorage loss is the movement of the anchor unit instead of the teeth to be moved. ‘Sign of Anchorage loss-Mesial migration of posterior teeth, closure of extraction space by movement of posterior ‘teeth, increase in overjet, proclination of anterior teeth, Buccal crossbite of posterior teeth and change in molar relationship. ‘Wii 658 Comprehensive Review of Gnical Dental Scienoss Orthodontics < Co g nN a Q = is) ra 7) Q. 1.

These appliance exert the forces ‘on the tooth through these attachment using archwires and other auxillaries, + Fixed appliances have advantage of precise control of tooth movement and to carry out multiple tooth movement at the same time, ‘Component of fixed orthodontic appliance + Active components-Arch wire, Springs, Elastics and Separators. + Passive components-Bands, Brackets, Buccal tubes, Lingual attachments, Lock pins and Ligature wire. * Separators are the wires or elastic used to create the spaces in between the adjacent teeth in order to facilitate the ‘banding of the tooth. These are placed approximately a week before braces are placed. Example: 1. Soft brass wires of 05 or 0.6 mm diameter. 2. Kesslying separtors-are made of 0.016’ special plus Australian wire with helices at the closed end. 3. Ring separators-are small elastic ring which are stretched with the help of separator placing plier and are passed through the interdental spaces. 4, Dumb-bell separators- are dumb-bell shaped elastic which are stretched and passed through the interdental space in order to create space between the adjacent teeth. + Arch wire is the active wire which conform to the alveolar or dental arch and is used with dental braces as a source of force to bring the orthodontic tooth movement in desired position. It can also be used to maintain existing dental positions. It come in different shape and may be fabricated from stainless steel, nickel-titanium alloy (Ni titanium alloy Beta titanium, Alpha titanium and Titanium niobium alloy. ‘+ Arch wire should have the following characteristic a. Lowstiffness-tffnessis the measure ofthe force magnitude delivered by the appliance. Low stiffness ensures more constant force application with greater ease and accuracy. b. Large spring back (maximum elastic deflection)-Spring back is a measure of the extent of deflection of the wire without being permanently deformed. Higher value ensures more working time or more of activation and thus, less no of arch wire changes, ‘+ High formability-Formability is a measure of ability of the wire to be bend into the desired configuration, + Other characteristic ofthe arch wire should include, low surface friction, high stored energy, biocompatibility, and the capacity to be welded to other auxiliaries. * Arch wire may have the following cross-section-Round, Square and Rectangular. + Arch wire diameter: — Round-0.08", 0.10", 0.12, 0.14" ~ Square-0.016" x 0.16" and 0.17" x 0.17" ~ Rectangular-0.17" x 0.25" and 0.17" x 0.2 * Stainlesssteel ~ It is was introduced by Wilkinson. It is composed of the iron-71%%, chromium-18%, nickel-8%, carbon < 0. 2%. Advantage of stainless steel include its high stifiness, resiliency, high yield strength, adequate spring back, good formability, join ability and biocompatibility. Component of Fixed Orthodontic Appliances 673 Whi) = Disadvantage are its high modulus of elasticity, requirement of more frequent activation and lower spring back than the NITi wire. The form of stainless steel most commonly used is austenitic ‘+ Elgiloy or chrome cobalt wire ~ This wire is composed of cobalt-40¥%, chromium-20%, nickel-15%, iron-15.4%%, molybedenum-7%%, manganese-2%, beryllium-4%%. The wire is available in four tempers-blue(soft), yellow (ductile), green(semi resilient) and red (resilient). ‘The wire has advantage of better tarnish and corrosion resistance, greater resistance to fatigue and distortion and ‘good formability. The disadvantage inciude requirement to be heat treated as mostly supplied in ductile form, soldering requirement and high modulus of elasticity. + Nickel-ttanium wire also known as nitinol, isa meta alloy of nickel (55%) and titanium (45%). Italso contain traces of other element like cobalt, copper and chromium. The term Nitinol is derived from its composition and its place of discovery: (nickel titanium naval ordnance laboratory). William. F Buehler along with Frederick Wang discovered its properties. Nitinol alloys exhibit the property of shape memory and super elasticity. These two properties are related to the phase transition from martensite to austentite. The wire has excellent spring back resiliency and range. At high temperatures, Nitinol assumes an interpenetrating simple cubic crystal structure referred to as austenite (the parent phase). ‘+ Atlow temperatures, Nitinol spontaneously transforms to a more complicated “monoclinic” crystal structure known as ‘martensite. Nitinol wire cannot be soldered or welded and cannot be moulded into shape. ‘+ BLTi or TMA wires or Titanium molybdenum wire-TMA wire has desirable property of strength, springiness and good formability. Itis composed of 77.8% of titanium, 11.3% of molybdenum, 6.6% of zirconium and 4.3% of tn. tis the only ‘orthodontic wire possessing true weld ability when compared to elgiloy and stainless steel. Ithas excellent stability and resistance to tarnish and corrosion. The frictional resistance is high and it is expensive. ‘+ Optiflex wire is a transparent nonmetallic arch wire with a silicon core, a silicon resin middle layer and a stain resistant ‘outer layer. These wires provide light continuous forces. Elastics ° Ela ics are either made of latex or nonlatex(less deterioration). Different type of elastics ‘Class I elastics are the intraarch elastics placed between the molars and the anterior in the same arch. ‘These elastic function in closing the extraction spaces by retracting the anterior and protracting the posterior. ‘+ Class If elastics areintermaxillary elastics placed between the mandibular molars and maxillary anteriors. These elastics are indicated to intrude the maxillary anterior and to retract the maxillary anterior. ‘Class Ill elastics are intermaxillary elastics placed between the maxillary molars and mandibular anterior. These elastic are indicated in the treatment of Angles class III malocclusion. ‘+ Cross bite elastics are the intermaxillary elastics used to correct erossbite in the buccal segments. ‘© Box elastics are used to correct the anterior crossbite, They extend between manillary and mandibular anterior like a box. These elastic cause distal tipping of the maxillary anterior and forced eruption of maxillary and mandibular anterior. * Diagonal clastics are indicated for the correction of midline deviations. Elastomerics ‘+ Blastomerics are the active component in fixed orthodontics and are made up of polyurethane materials. These elastomerics come in different forms. — Elastic chains or E chains are used for space closure and come in three different form (continuous, closed short and long) depending on the distance between the subsequent rings. ~ Elastic thread or cotton threads are used for the correction of derotations and closure of anterior spacing. ~ Elastics ligatures are used to secure the ~ Flastic modules or elastomeric chains are made up of two elastic rings separated by a variable distance. The indication is for closing the spaces or for derotation of teeth. cchwire, * Springs are the active force generating component. Spring are used mainly for tooth uprighting and torquing in the ‘bogg’s appliance therapy and the tip edge appliance. Springs may be used to open spaces or to close the spaces.

Brackets have one or more slots that accept arch wire. Bracket can be made of either metal, plastic, polycarbonate, polyurethane, ceramic or titanium, Type of bracket 1. Badge wise bracket are used in edge wise and straight wire technique and has a horizontal slot facing labially. These bracket provide good control over tooth movement and do not permit the tipping of teeth. 2. Ribbon arch bracket has a vertical slot facing the occlusal or gingival direction. These brackets are used with round wire Ribbon arch bracket are used in the begg technique. 1. Bondable brackets-directly bonded on to the tooth 2. Weldable bracket-welded or soldered over bands cemented on to the surface. Metallic bracket steel brackets are commonly used. Ceramic bracket Plastic bracket Bands—A thin closed ring of metal, usually stainless steel, that secures orthodontic attachments to a tooth. The band, with orthodontic attachments welded or soldered to it, is closely adapted to fit the contours of the tooth and then is cemented into place. Band can be either custom made or are prefat various sizes, ‘© Buccal tubes are the attachment generally used on molars. It can be weldable or bondable. ‘© Lingual attachment: are accessory attachment placed on the lingual aspect ofthe teeth or bands. These attachment are used for the attachment of elastics or elastomeric Example Lingual buttons, lingual eyelets, lingual cleats, Lingual ball hooks ingual sheaths used for attachment of transpalatal arches, expanders or NiTi molar rotators ‘+ Lingual seating lugs help in seating of bands ‘© Lock pins~They are small pins used to secure arch wire to brackets with vertical slots such as ribbon arch bracket. The lock pins are usually made of brass. + Ligature wires are soft thin stainless wire (0.008-0.010") used to tie an arch wire in bracket or to the band attachments. te + Stages in fixed orthodontic treatment 1. Leveling and alignment 2. Over bite reduction: It should precede overjet reduction in order to have a smooth movement of teeth in the horizontal plane.

Ref Contemporary Orthodontics-Profitt, 2nd edition, page 343 Treatment of Different Malocclusion Jaspal Singh Method of g: 19 space in orthodontics © Methods of gaining space: To render the orthodontic treatment for crowded, retracted and derotated teeth, space must be created in the jaw. The different mean to achieve the space requirement include: 1. Proximal stripping or slicing is the reduction of the tooth material on the proximal side ofthe tooth. It is important that no more than half the thickness of enamel should be removed using metal abrasive strips, diamond discs, and carborundum discs. Its indicated when the space requirement is minimal. 2. Arch expansion-Involves the splitting or opening of the mid palatal suture with the help of rapid or slow maxillary expansion devices. a. Rapid maxillary expansion is recommended for: i. Correction of unilateral or bilateral crossbite ii, Class II with mid facial deficiency ii, Increasing maxillary arch width fv. Reducing nasal resistance v. Cleft palate Sign of arck expansion—The open diastema makes the rapid palatal expansion evident. Rapid maxillary appliances can be removable or fixed. ‘The fixed maxillary appliance include Hyrax appliance, Hass appliance, Derichsweiler appliance, Isaacson appliance. Rapid palatal expansion has been shown to produce forces ranging from 3 to more than 20 pounds. ‘With RME appliances, 0.2-0.5 mm of expansion can be achieved per day. ‘The activation of appliance varies with age and design of the appliance. . Slow expansion make use of less forces in the range of 2-4 pounds and over longer period 2-6 month, Indication-1. Correction of unilateral cross bite, 2. Correction of constricted maxillary arch. Slow expansion appliances include appliances incorporating coffin spring, Quad helix appliance, Schwarz appliance, “Appliance incorporating NiTi, ‘Schwarz appliance is a removable lower arch expansion appliance indicated in early mixed dentition with the objective of correcting mild to moderate crowding in the anterior region of the lower arch and for correcting the| lingually tipped posterior teeth. The appliance is activated once a week and can produce an expansion of 0.25 mm inthe midline. 3. Molar distalization a. Intraoral method to distalize molar-First class appliance, distal jet appliance, pendulum appliance, magnets, bumper, sewartz appliance, sagittal appliance, and fast back appliance. . Extraoral appliances for molar distalization include head gear. 4, Uprighting of tilted posterior teeth-1-1.5 of arch length increase can be obtained by up righting molar. Lip bumper, space regainer and fixed appliance are used to upright the tilted molar. 5. Derotation of posterior teeth-Space can be gained by derotating the rotated posterior teeth and it can be best accomplished with fixed orthodontic appliances. 6. Proclination of retroclined anterior teeth-Appliances used for proclining the retroclined anterior include removable appliances incorporating Z spring or mattress spring or screw and fixed orthodontic appliances. 7. Extraction Extracting the teeth to create space are indicated in severe arch length tooth material discrepancy.

Another benefit is prevention of third molar impaction. * Compensatory extraction means extraction of a tooth from the opposing quadrant to the enforced extraction. It is designed to minimize occlusal interferance by allowing teeth to maintain occlusal relationships as they drift. * Therapeutic extraction-Extraction carried out for treatment purpose. * Teeth to be extracted in orthodontic treatment depend on: 1. Arch length tooth material discrepancy. 2. Direction and amount of jaw growth. * First premolar is the tooth most commonly extracted as a part of orthodontic treatment due to its position, due to fact that it least likely upset molar occlusion, and there is adequate posterior anchorage after its extraction. Cross Bite and Its Management * Anterior cross-bite an abnormal labiolingual relationship between one or more maxillary and mandibular anterior teeth.

Myofunctional therapy. b. Orthodontic mechanotherapy (using fixed or removable appliances). © Surgical correction-orthognatic surgery. . Combination procedure + Myofunctional therapy-Passive posterior bite blocks are functional appliances that are used to open the bite 34 mm beyond the rest position. In growing patients this inhibits the increase in height of the buccal dento-alveolar processes, thus preventing a downwards and backwards rotation of the mandible. High pull headgear to the bite blocks may increase their efficiency Functional regulator appliance -highpull headgear tothe bite blocks may increase their efficiency. + Fixed appliances-Anterior open bites can be closed using fixed appliances and vertical intermaxillary elastics to extrude the anterior teeth. This may be combined with a transpalatal arch and high pull headgear to limit vertical development of the maxillary molar teeth. © Vertical pull chin cup therapy has been used to limit excessive vertical growth. High pull headgear applied to the maxillary molar teeth and worn for 14 hours per day has been used to inhibit eruption of the posterior teeth and hence limit vertical growth ‘Treatment of deep bite ‘© Deep bite or closed bite or excessive overbite is a condition characterized by excessive overlap of lower incisors by upper incisors to the extent that lower incisors bite too closely to or into the gingival tissue or palate behind the upper teeth. ‘Treatment is based on the intrusion of the anterior teeth and extrusion of posterior teeth. # Treatment modalities include-Removable anterior bite plane and fixed orthodontic treatment including the use of auxiliary; Guray bite raiser. souopoyyo, re ih a SI iS) ra S 2 @ o & Wy 682 comprehensive Review of Clinical Dental Sciences Orthodontics < = S ~ Fa fo) ie is) in 7) ©. 1.
