ortho-prosth Flashcards
minor ortho intervention can
improve dental restortations, spae management, abutment prep, root inclination
improves prognosis of tx
increase esthetic results
what can you ask from ortho
abutment uprighting
occlusal plane leveling
space managment for fixed work
tooth extrusion, intrusion
ortho extraction
do what before ortho
clear perio and basic restorative
dont do final treatment if ortho is planned –> think about crown damage, alteration of finish line and gingiva relation
if doing temps –> permanent cement for now
benefits of integrating ortho early on in tx
more room for more bridges more implants less extractions better esthetics more ideal proportions better long term prognosis
molar uprighting usually needed wen
loss of posterior teeth leading to adjacent teeth drifting into space, tipping and rotating
soft tissue folds and distorts and can form plaque- harboring pseudopockets
consider what with 3rd molars?
extract if no opposing 3rd in opposing arch
movement of uprighting molars
just crown?
or crown and root? – this will require more comprehensive care
corwn movement is easier, faster, needs less anchorage, generally preferred option
crown movement implications with molars
can create interferences and may open bite (may need to extrude after uprighting)
attachment levels after uprighting molars?
may decrease
gingival tissue may present localized enlargment – may be lip or collar on the mesial aspect of the uprighted molar
consider extract and implant if these side effects outweight
retention with uprighting molars
bridge example
need to maintain the space created – so temp bridge will act as retainer
or if delay is expected – or RPD planned - make retainer to keep results achieved
timing and amount of uprighting
4-6 weeks to activate pdl
4 weeks for 10 degrees of distal crown tipping
options for moving molars
super-elastic wires
coil springs with brackets
T loops
heavy SS wires with T loops
how to move molar if extrusion not desired
Heavy SS wire with T loops – better control if extrusion not desires
breakdown of occlusal leveling
- pre-prosthetic occlusal leveling will allow corrections of VFO, and give proper space for restorations
- correct severe overbites
- intrude unopposed overerrupted tteht
- correct crossbites
explain skeletal anchorage in orhto
utalized for
- non-compliant patients
- no reciprcal moement in anchorage unit (kinda acts like head gear)
- ideal for incomplete dentition
less movement of other teeth because not using them as anchorage
describe anchor screw
what is used in skeletal anchorage in ortho
- IMMEDIATE loading
- NO oseointegration required
- resistane of sufficient load
- minimal patient trauma
- easy and quick removal
contraindications for direct skeletal attachment
mixed or deciduous dentition
active infection
blood limitations or bone quantitiy less than 5 mm in depth
mental or neurological limitations - cant follow post op
severe disease or immunocompromised
can do ortho on patient with CU and PL
yes – can make patient better candidate for the partial lower
Considerations with congenitally missing laterals
dental
Dental considerations:
skeletal and
dental classification
space analysis
tooth size
profile considerations
- lip support and skeletal class
esthetics
- major differences between lateralls and canines – need to know these before make latertals into canines
