APPLIANCE DESIGN

www.indiandentalacademy.com

A. Moderately mesially inclined molar with no distal drifting


of premolars :
1. Initial arch wire
The molar is tipped back into position.

www.indiandentalacademy.com

2. Finishing arch wire


Rectangular arch wire for buccolingual control.

www.indiandentalacademy.com

B. Moderately mesially inclined molar with distal drifting of


premolars :
1. Initial arch wire

www.indiandentalacademy.com

2. Second arch wire

Once mild uprighting has been achieved, rectangular wire (0.018


by 0.25 in.) and an open coil spring should be inserted.

This is not recommended unless the patient has distal tipping and
spacing of the premolars.

www.indiandentalacademy.com

C. Severely mesially inclined second molar :

Initial arch wire may be a T loop in 0.016 in round wire.

Now the first appliance can be utilized for finishing as necessary.

D. Mesially inclined second and third molars :


The third molar should always receive the buccal tube.

When using this appliance, it may be necessary to utilize several light,


multilooped, round arches to achieve the bracket alignment necessary
for rectangular arch engagement.

ORTHODONIC PROSTHODONTIC
IMPLANT INTERACTION

12

Definition :
An implant can be defined as, A graft or insert set firmly or deeply
into or onto the alveolar process that may be prepared for its
insertion.
A dental implant is defined as, A substance that is placed into the
jaw to support a crown or fixed or removable denture.

www.indiandentalacademy.com

13

Indications for implants :

Othodontic Anchorage

For completely edentulous patients with advanced residual ridge


resorption, where it is difficult to obtain adequate retention.

For partially edentulous arches where removable partial dentures


may weaken the abutment teeth and also provide reduced
masticatory efficiency.

For single tooth replacements where fixed partial dentures cannot


be placed.

Patients desire.

www.indiandentalacademy.com

14

Advantages of using implants :

Preservation of bone : The implant stimulates the bone like a


natural tooth thereby preventing the progress of residual ridge
resorption.

Improved function : Implants can be designed such that the effect


of harmful forces can be minimized. The chewing efficiency is
greater than other prosthetic replacements.

www.indiandentalacademy.com

15

Aesthetics : Implants provide a natural emergence profile


(appearance of the tooth as if it emerges directly from the soft
tissues).

Stability and retention : Implants are more stable and retentive


due to osseo-integration.

www.indiandentalacademy.com

16

Disadvantages of implants :

It is very expensive. Patient affordability is the primary concern in


the use of implants.

Cannot be used in medically compromised patients who cannot


undergo surgery.

Many patients do not accept longer duration of treatment and


tedious fabrication procedures.

www.indiandentalacademy.com

17

It requires a lot of patient cooperation because repeated recall


visits for after care is essential.

It cannot be universally placed due to the presence of


anatomical limitations.

18

Adults presenting for comprehensive orthodontic treatment often


have dental problems that require restorative as well as orthodontic
treatment.

Such problems include loss of tooth structure from wear and abrasion
or trauma, gingival esthetic problems, and missing teeth that require
replacement with either conventional prosthodontics or implants.

www.indiandentalacademy.com

19

Problems Related to Loss of Tooth Structure :


The positioning of damaged, worn or abraded teeth during
comprehensive

orthodontics

must

be

done

with

the

eventual

restorative plan in mind. Early consultation with the restorative


dentist obviously becomes important.

www.indiandentalacademy.com

20

There are three particularly important considerations in deciding


where the orthodontist should position teeth that are to be
restored :

The total amount of space that should be created

The mesio-distal positioning of the tooth within the space

The bucco-lingual positioning.

www.indiandentalacademy.com

21

The orthodontic positioning obviously should provide adequate


space for the appropriate addition of the restorative material.

The ideal position may or may not be in the center of the space
mesio-distally. This would depend on whether the most esthetic
restoration would be produced by symmetric addition on each side
of the tooth, or whether a larger build-up on one side would be be
better.

www.indiandentalacademy.com

22

Similarly, the ideal bucco-lingual position of a worn or damaged


tooth would be influenced by how the restoration was planned.

If a crown or composite build-ups are planned, the tooth should be in


the center of the dental arch.

But if a facial veneer is to be used, the orthodontist should place the


tooth more lingually than otherwise would be the case, to allow for
the thickness of the veneer on the facial surface.

www.indiandentalacademy.com

23

Finally, better restorations can be done if the orthodontist


provides slightly more space than is required, so there is room
for the restorative dentist to finish and polish proximal
surfaces.

The slight excess space can than be closed with a retainer.

www.indiandentalacademy.com

24

A particularly distressing problem is created by gingival recession


after periodontal bone loss, which creates black holes between
the maxillary incisor teeth.

Even

if

periodontal

therapy

succeeds

in

obtaining

some

regeneration of the lost bony support, there is no way to regenerate


the missing soft tissue.

www.indiandentalacademy.com

25

One approach to this problem is to remove some interproximal


enamel so that the incisors can be brought close together. This
moves the contact points more gingivally, minimizing the open
space between the teeth.

COMPREHENSIVE ORTHODONTICS
IN
PATIENTS PLANNED FOR IMPLANTS

www.indiandentalacademy.com

27

Major concerns when implants are to be placed are adequate


bone in the edentulous area to support the implant, especially
when the implant is to replace a congenitally missing tooth, and
for single-tooth implants, adequate space between the roots as
well as the crowns of the adjacent teeth.

www.indiandentalacademy.com

28

A successful implant requires adequate bone to support it. If there is


no tooth to erupt into an area of the dental arch, little or no alveolar
bone ever forms.

The result is a large defect in the alveolar process that can make
implant placement almost impossible.

www.indiandentalacademy.com

29

The orthodontic plan would be to open the edentulous space and


position the adjacent teeth after the permanent tooth has erupted
and to place an implant to support the prosthetic crown after the
vertical growth has completed.

www.indiandentalacademy.com

30

The timing of implant placement is particularly


critical for adolescents and young patients.
Implants to support the restorations should not
be placed untill all vertical growth has
completed.
Once the implant has been placed, no further
eruption of this tooth will occur, even though
the adjacent teeth continue to erupt in response
to increase in the patients vertical facial height.
The implant is analogous to an ankylosed tooth.

PROSTHODONTIC
CONSIDERATIONS WHEN USING
IMPLANTS FOR ORTHODONTIC
ANCHORAGE

www.indiandentalacademy.com

32

Orthodontic treatment has been a valuable adjunct to prosthodontics


for decades.

Indeed, certain prosthodontic treatments are not possible or would


be severely compromised without preprosthetic orthodontic therapy.

This mutually beneficial orthodontic prosthodontic relationship has


been

significantly

enhanced

through

advancements

in

adult

orthodontic treatment.

www.indiandentalacademy.com

33

The use of implants for orthodontic anchorage can produce


superior preprosthetic tooth alignments.

However the prosthodontic advantages of using implants for


orthodontic anchorage are only fully realized when the location and
angulation of the implants are carefully planned so that they are
optimally located for prosthesis that will be placed after orthodontic
therapy.

CONCLUSION

It would do well for all of us to keep in mind that orthodontics


cannot stand alone. We are after all dentists by profession. Thus it
is our moral obligation to assess not just the teeth but also the
surrounding structures . In this manner we elevate the standards of
not just orthodontics ,but of dentistry within and outside our
community.
