Class II malocclusion treatment changes with the Jones jig, Distal jet and First Class appliances

J. appl. oral sci; 28 (), 2020
Abstract Objective Maxillary molar distalization with intraoral distalizer appliances is a non-extraction orthodontic treatment used to correct molar relationship in patients with Class II malocclusion presenting maxillary dentoalveolar protrusion and minor skeletal discrepancies. This study compares th...

Immediate orthodontic load on dental implants: an option for adult treatment

ABSTRACT The demand for orthodontic treatment in adults has been increasing. However, these patients often require a multidisciplinary approach, due to the lack of posterior teeth, requiring additional anchorage. The skeletal anchorage by endosseous implants is an option, since they may be used later for...

Efficacy of Maximun Anchoring Using Transpalanance and Double ATP in Cases Requiring First Superior Premolar Extractions: A Comparative Analysis

Odovtos (En línea); 21 (3), 2019
ABSTRACT Introduction: Space maintainers play an important role in orthodontic treatments involving premolar extractions, especially in cases with bad occlusion and marked crowding. The orthodontist must know several options of anchoring and choose the best method that would fulfill the treatment objecti...

Estabilidad a largo plazo en pacientes con patrón de crecimiento horario, tratados con intrusión molar mediante minitornillos
Long-term stability in patients treated with molar intrusion using miniscrews

Ortodoncia; 83 (166), 2019
OBJETIVOS Determinar los cambios cefalométricos esqueletales y dentarios y la estabilidad a largo plazo, en pacientes con patrón de crecimiento horario, tratados con intrusión molar maxilar mediante minitornillos....

Skeletal Class III malocclusion treatment using mandibular and maxillary skeletal anchorage and intermaxillary elastics: a case report

ABSTRACT Introduction: Skeletal Class III malocclusion is one of the most challenging malocclusions to treat. In around 40% of Class III patients, maxillary retrognathia is the main cause of the problem and in most patients, orthopedic/surgical treatments includes some type of maxillary protraction. O...

Failure rates of miniscrews inserted in the maxillary tuberosity

ABSTRACT Introduction: Anchorage conservation in orthodontics has always been a challenge. Objective: The aim of this current study was to find out the failure rate of miniscrews inserted in the maxillary tuberosity (MT) region. Methods: This pilot study consisted of 40 patients (23 female, 17 male;...

Mechanical and histological evaluation of a titanium device for orthodontic anchorage, placed with or without cyanoacrylate adhesive

ABSTRACT Objective: The objective of the present study was to perform a histological evaluation of a titanium mini-implant for orthodontic anchorage. Shear strength and fracture patterns that occurred immediately, 30 and 60 days after insertion with or without N-2-butyl-cyanoacrylate adhesive were eval...

Osseointegrated implant as an auxiliary of orthodontic leveling in case of asymmetric vertical skeletal discrepancy: case report

RFO UPF; 24 (1), 2019
Objective: To present a case report that used an osseointegrated implant as skeletal anchorage unit in asso-ciation with fixed orthodontic appliance for the treatment of an adult patient with vertical asymmetric skeletal discrepancy. Case report: In this case, the pre-existing osseointegrated implant in ...

Occlusal plane canting: a treatment alternative using skeletal anchorage

ABSTRACT A canted occlusal plane is the cause of unaesthetic smile, and also represents a challenge, due to the complex orthodontic procedures involved in its treatment. The skeletal anchorage allows successful treatment of this asymmetry in the majority of cases, with less dependency on the patient coop...
