week 5 Flashcards
what is the presence of removable appliances in the US
crozat applianes in early 1900s then dropped out of favor
what is the presence of removable appliances in Europe
complete reliance on andresen activators, schwarz between 1925-1965
Pros of removable appliaces
removable
More hygience
more esthetic
Easter for certain growth mod than fixed
disadvantages of Removable appliances
Rely on patient compliance
Less Precise force control than fixed appliances
involves lab work
Primary use of removable appliances
GRowth modification
minor tooth movements retention
what does a bionator do
Stimulates mandibular growth
Controls tooth eruption
what does a twin block do
Stimulates mandibular growth
Can include an expander
Can add headgear
what does a frankle appliance work on
Tissue borne with buccal shields/lip pads to reduce cheeck and lip pressure for expansion
what does a frankle appliance do
stimulates mandibular growth (lingual pads)
why use a face mask and reverse pull HG
for preadolescent patients exhibiting maxillary deficiency
how does a removable appliance work for tooth movement
Force for active tooth movement provided by finer springs
what provides retention for removable tooth movement devices
Acrylic, Labial bow and molar clasps
why use an anterior bite plate
Decrease overbite
why use a posterio bite plate
to increase overbite
what is a Hawley retainer
A labial bow, with clasps or rests on posterior teeth in acrylics with many variations of designs
why use spring retainers
Both retention and minor tooth movement
why use a tooth positioner
Minor tooth movement and retention
how is a tooth positioner set up
Fabricated on set-up models to which desired (minor) tooth movement has been included
what are contemporary ortho fixed appliances based on
Angle’s design in the 1800s
what are angle’s 4 major designs for fixed ortho appliances
E arch
Pin and tube
Ribbon
Edgewise
what did angle’s edgewise appliance do to modernize ortho
each bracket had horiztonal slots for better control of torque
how did the begg appliance control tooth movement
Modification based on Angle’s ribbon arch
except used auxilary springs for root control
how did the Begg appliance compare to the Edgewize
Begg had a wire and bracket contact that was small with minimal friction so teth can be moved quickly
- hard to control root
do we still use the begg appliance
No
what is the design of automatic rotational control
Twin brackets or single brackets with wings
what slots are used today in brackets
.018 and .022 inch slots
when was the pre-adjusted edgewise appliance developed
in the 1980s
how did the pre-adjusted edgewise appliance help
Refined manufacturing with built in adjustments for each tooth
- no repeated bends to compensate for difference amount teeth (required for standard edgewise appliance)
what is the straight wire technique
elements of ideal tooth prescriptions are fabricated into the appliance to minimize wire manipulation
is wire bending needed anymore
it is needed for the detailing and finishing phase as the ideal prescription may not be exactly ideal for individual patients and teeth
how does one compensate for differences in tooth horizontal position
by varying bracket base thickness or molar tube profile differences of tooth position using (first order, or in-out archwire bends)
when are 1st order bends used
in a standard edgewise band to compensate for horizontal position variations
how to adjust a pre-adjsted edgewise appliance for the horizontal
Make the bracket base of upper lateral incisors,
lower incisors thicker
Molar tube profile shorter than adjacent bracket slots
how to aid in changes mesio-distal angulation in standard edgewise
vary bracket slot tipping using 2nd order bends
how to do mesial distal angulation in preadjusted brack
align vertical slot with root of long axis, if alignment needed straight wire will be defllected once engaged to that tooth causing a change in angulation
how do you compensate for labial lingual angulation
3rd order bends
what are the steps of doing banding
Tooth separation
Band fitting
Band cememntation
- sealing with wax before curing adesive
what are the aspects of brackets
Direct and indirection bonding
Rebonding and debonding
what should archwire be adjusted to
Make sure the jaw/size/ype of archwires are correct
- know properties of different types of arch wire
hos is archwire tied to brackets
Elastic and stainless steel ties
why use power chains
Space closure
why use elastics
Improve occlusion move impacted teeth
shift midlines
why use open coil springs
Opening space
retracting teeth
why use closed coil spring
maintaining space
what are the fixed appliances for correcting class II occlusion
Herbst
MARA
Forsus
what are the advantages for class II correction
Patient compliance not need
larger dental movement than elastics
Herbst and MARA may be potentially have skeletal growth modification effects
what to use a jasper jumper to fix
Class II correction
when to use a lip bumper
Arch expansion
Molar distalization
Incisor proclination
what is a hyrax used for
Palatal expansion of the skeleton and dental
what does a lower arch expander expand
dental only
when to use a quad helix with finer sprins and w arch
preadolescent and early mixed dentition patients
what are helicies of a quad helix with finer springs used for
Activation and increase in range of tooth movement
what stainless steel is used with quad helix with finger springs and W arch
heavy (.040)
why use a transpalatal arch and lingual holding arch
Used for anchorage and space maintenance purposes
