Q

Edgewise system - angle- 1925-1928

A
  1. Affects every tooth in three planes
  2. Controls the position of each dental arch segment or the entire
    dental arch
  3. Allows adjusting the ratios of jaws, which can lead to a change in the proportions of the jaw bases and jaw growth

23
Q

Metal rings encircling the tooth to which buccal and often lingual attachments are welded

A

Bands

24
Q

Bands are mostly seated on

A

🔹Premolars and molars
🔹can resist more occlusal load

25
Q

Bands are mostly seated on

A

🔹Premolar and molar teeth
🔹More resistance to occlusal forces

26
Q

Types of bands

A

🔹Preformed
🔹Customised

27
Q

Separators

A

Wedge teeth open to make space for bands

28
Q

Indications for banding

A
