ABSTRACT

Objetivo: A má oclusão classe III de Angle se caracteriza por protrusão mandibular, retrusão maxilar ou pela combinação de ambas. Além de prejudicar a estética facial do paciente, essa má oclusão pode causar alterações funcionais e respiratórias. Uma das alternativas de tratamento para esses casos é o uso da máscara de Petit e do aparelho disjuntor de Hyrax. Este estudo tem como objetivo avaliar por meio da cefalometria ortodôntica se o tratamento com expansão maxilar em conjunto com a tração reversa da maxila diminuem os agravos estéticos e funcionais do paciente Classe III. Relato de caso: o relato de caso descrito no presente trabalho é sobre uma paciente que foi submetida a esse tratamento, sendo descrito por meio de análises cefalométricas, exames radiográficos, fotos intrabucais e achados clínicos. Considerações finais: A verificação dos resultados obtidos após o término do tratamento mostrou que a paciente teve uma boa adesão ao uso desses aparelhos e obteve resultados satisfatórios na sua função mastigatória, na sua oclusão e na sua estética facial e dentária.(AU)


Objective: Angle class III malocclusion is characterized by mandibular protrusion, maxillary retrusion or a combination of both. In addition to impairing the patient's facial aesthetics, this malocclusion can cause functional and respiratory changes. One of the treatment alternatives for these cases is the use of the Petit mask and the Hyrax breaker device. This study aims to evaluate, through orthodontic cephalometry, whether the treatment with maxillary expansion in conjunction with the reverse traction of the maxilla reduces the aesthetic and functional problems of Class III patients. Case report: the case report described in the present work is about a patient who underwent this treatment, being described through cephalometric analysis, radiographic examinations, intraoral photos and clinical findings. Final considerations: The verification of the results obtained after the end of the treatment showed that the patient had a good adherence to the use of these devices and obtained satisfactory results in her masticatory function, in her occlusion and in her facial and dental aesthetics.(AU)

ABSTRACT

Introduction:The supply of public orthodontic services is still unable to meet the demand for treatment of malocclusions. The resources available are sometimes mismanaged and significant financial impacts contribute to limited access to the services. Objective:To carry out an integrative review regarding the access and financial impacts of public orthodontic service among the various health systems worldwide, considering social inequalities and the referral and counter-referral systems for services. Methodology:A survey was conducted using the BVS (Biblioteca Virtual em Saúde / Virtual Health Library), PubMed, and Cochrane databases, including articles available from 1970 to 2019, which elucidated the guiding question "How does access work and what are the financial impacts of the provision of orthodontic services in different public health systems worldwide?". Results:211 articles were found, of which 20 were analyzed. The chronological distribution was relatively uniform. The topic 'access to orthodontic services' was most frequently reported and there was a predominance of studies addressing the provision of treatment for children and adolescents. Conclusions:There are significant financial impacts and demographics have a strong influence on access to services. The provision of orthodontic treatments by the private sector predominates, preventive approaches are scarce, and an optimization in the use of available resources is necessary. Primary Care has much to contribute in increasing access, reducing costs, and making the referral / counter-referral system effective (AU).


Introdução:A oferta de serviços ortodônticos públicos ainda não consegue suprir a demanda de tratamento de má oclusões. Os recursos disponíveis, por vezes, mal alocados e os impactos financeiros significativos contribuem para a restrição do acesso aos serviços.Objetivo:Realizar uma revisão integrativa pertinente ao acesso e aos impactos financeiros da provisão ortodôntica pública nos diversos sistemas de saúde mundiais, sob a luz das iniquidades sociais e dos sistemas de referência e contrarreferência de serviços.Metodologia:Foi realizado um levantamento nas bases de dados BVS (Biblioteca Virtual em Saúde), PubMed e Cochrane Reviews, incluindo os artigos disponíveis no período de 1970 a 2019, que elucidavam a questão norteadora "Como se dá a provisão de serviços ortodônticos nos diversos sistemas públicos de saúde mundiais?".Resultados:Foram encontrados 211 registros, dos quais 20foram analisados. A distribuição temporal foi relativamente uniforme. A temática "acesso aos serviços ortodônticos" foi mais frequentemente relatada e houve um predomínio de estudos abordando a oferta de tratamentos a crianças e adolescentes. Conclusões:Há impactos financeiros significativos e os determinantes sociais exercem forte influência sobre o acesso aos serviços. Predomina a oferta de tratamentos ortodônticos pelo setor privado, abordagens preventivas são escassas e é necessária uma otimização no uso de recursos disponíveis. A Atenção Básica tem muito a contribuir para aumento do acesso, diminuição de custos e efetivação do sistema dereferência/contrarreferência dos serviços (AU).

ABSTRACT

La maloclusión clase III se considera un reto en la práctica de todo ortodoncista. Una de las principales dudas al respecto reside en ¿cuándo es el mejor momento para intervenir? Exis- ten dos enfoques en el manejo ortodóntico del paciente: 1) la ortodoncia interceptiva; y 2) la ortodoncia correctiva. La or- todoncia interceptiva busca la prevención del establecimiento de la malolcusión. En este grupo, se encuentra el uso de más- cara facial con disyunción maxilar y el de aparatología fija (2x4 o 2x6). Por otro lado, la intervención correctiva hace re- ferencia al camuflaje de las características que trae consigo la maloclusión clase III ya establecida; dentro de este enfoque se encuentran las extracciones de piezas, el uso de minitornillos extraalveolares y la filosofía MEAW. Se puede concluir que el adecuado manejo de la maloclusión clase III radica en el oportuno y correcto diagnóstico, que debe realizarse a través de la minuciosa inspección de las características y hallazgos intra y extraorales de los pacientes (AU)


Class III malocclusion is considered a challenge in the practice of every orthodontist. One of the main questions is: when is the best time to intervene? There are 2 approaches to the orthodontic management of the patient: 1) interceptive orthodontics, and 2) corrective orthodontics. Interceptive or- thodontics seeks to prevent the establishment of malocclusion by means of the use of a facial mask with maxillary disjunc- tion, or the use of fixed appliances (2x4 or 2x6). Corrective intervention refers to camouflaging the characteristics of a Class III malocclusion that is already established. This ap- proach uses tooth extraction, extra-alveolar mini screws or the MEAW philosophy. To conclude, proper management of Class III malocclu- sion is based on timely, correct diagnosis, which must be made through careful inspection of the characteristics and intraoral and extraoral findings in patients (AU)

ABSTRACT

A Odontologia moderna busca atualmente tratamentos que restaurem função e estética dos elementos dentários, levando também em consideração os fatores biológicos envolvidos na saúde bucal. O tratamento reabilitador protético pode ser desafiador, principalmente em pacientes adultos, com perdas dentárias e problemas periodontais. Nesse sentido, a busca por uma somatória de bons resultados leva a equipe a unir especialidades como Periodontia, Dentística, Prótese, Implantodontia, Cirurgia Bucomaxilofacial e Ortodontia. Esta última vem sendo uma grande aliada para a reabilitação protética em etapas de diagnóstico e plano de tratamento, proporcionando melhores prognósticos estéticos e funcionais. O presente estudo trata-se de uma revisão da literatura realizada por meio de busca nas bases de dados PubMed e Google Scholar e tem como objetivo abordar os aspectos mais recentes do tratamento ortodôntico pré-protético, enfatizando as principais vantagens, indicações e as formas de estabelecer um plano de tratamento, bem como movimentações ortodônticas em pacientes com agenesia dentária anterior e a utilização de mini-implantes como auxiliares no plano terapêutico. O tratamento ortodôntico pré-protético é um tema considerado atual, e a individualidade de cada paciente faz com que a literatura concentre mais artigos de relato de caso, sendo, por isso, necessários mais estudos que englobem protocolos e indicações para os possíveis casos que venham a surgir na prática clínica. Conclui-se que a Ortodontia sendo inserida nas etapas de diagnóstico e plano de tratamento da reabilitação protética traz benefícios de grande valia na busca de um ambiente reabilitador mais fácil e com maiores garantias de sucesso estético e funcional.


Modern dentistry is currently seeking treatments that restore the function and aesthetics of dental elements, also considering the biological factors involved in oral health. Prosthetic rehabilitation treatment can be challenging, especially in adult patients with tooth loss and periodontal problems. In this sense, the search for a sum of satisfactory results leads the team to integrate specialties such as Periodontics, Dentistry, Prosthodontics, Implantology, Maxillofacial Surgery and Orthodontics. The latter has been a great ally for prosthetic rehabilitation in stages of diagnosis and treatment plan, providing better aesthetic and functional prognoses. The present study is a literature review performed by searching the PubMed and Google Scholar databases and aims to address the most recent aspects of preprosthetic orthodontic treatment, emphasizing the main advantages, indications, and ways of establishing a treatment plan, as well as orthodontic movements in patients with anterior tooth agenesis and the use of mini-implants as an aid in the therapeutic plan. Preprosthetic orthodontic treatment is considered a current topic, and the individuality of each patient means that the literature concentrates more in case report articles, thus further studies are needed that encompass protocols and indications for possible cases that may arise in clinical practice. We conclude that including orthodontics in the stages of diagnosis and treatment plan of prosthetic rehabilitation brings benefits of great value in the search for an easier rehabilitation environment with greater guarantees of aesthetic and functional success.

ABSTRACT

Introducción: Los minitornillos de ortodoncia son dispositivos temporales de anclaje utilizados ampliamente en ortodoncia correctiva. Sin embargo, se ha reportado en la literatura que su tasa clínica de éxito no es completa debido a que pueden existir fallas relacionadas con la pérdida de su estabilidad. Varios factores pueden comprometer el anclaje y están relacionados con el tipo de implante, su manejo quirúrgico y el hospedero. Dentro de este último, se encuentra la inflamación del tejido periimplantario o mucositis que, aunque reversible, es necesario su tratamiento temprano para evitar su progresión a la afectación de tejido duro (periimplantitis). Objetivo: Describir un caso clínico de mucositis periimplantaria asociada a un dispositivo de anclaje ortodóntico temporal. Presentación del caso: Paciente femenina que acudió a la consulta por presentar dolor en la zona anterior del maxilar superior. Durante el examen intraoral se observó que usaba aparatos de ortodoncia con mecanismo de anclaje: dos minitornillos de ortodoncia ubicados al nivel de los caninos superiores. Se realizó la remoción quirúrgica de los minitornillos de ortodoncia, se le indicó el uso de antibióticos y se realizó estudio histopatológico para descartar malignidad. Se diagnosticó con mucositis periimplantaria. Conclusiones: La remoción quirúrgica de los minitornillos de ortodoncia es una excelente alternativa para evitar la progresión de la lesión hacia los tejidos duros. A través de esta técnica lograron eliminar signos de dolor, enrojecimiento y sangrado(AU)


Introduction: Orthodontic miniscrews are temporary anchorage devices widely used in corrective orthodontics. However, it has been reported in the literature that their clinical success rate is not high, due to failures related to the loss of stability. Anchorage may be affected by factors associated to the type of implant, its surgical management and the host. Host-related factors include peri-implant tissue inflammation or mucositis, which though reversible, its early treatment is necessary to prevent expansion into and damage to the hard tissue (peri-implantitis). Objective: Describe a clinical case of peri-implant mucositis associated to a temporary orthodontic anchorage device. Case presentation: A female patient attends clinical consultation with pain in the anterior zone of her upper maxilla. Intraoral examination revealed the presence of orthodontic appliances with an anchorage mechanism: two orthodontic miniscrews located at the level of the upper canines. Surgical removal was performed of the orthodontic miniscrews, antibiotics were indicated and histopathological testing was conducted to rule out malignancy. The patient was diagnosed with peri-implant mucositis. Conclusions: Surgical removal of orthodontic miniscrews is an excellent alternative to prevent the progress of the lesion into hard tissues. Pain signs, reddening and bleeding were all eliminated with the technique applied(AU)

ABSTRACT

El síndrome X frágil (SXF) es un trastorno ligado al cromosoma X, en el brazo largo Xq27.3, que provoca diversas alteraciones como problemas de conducta, deficiencia intelectual, macroorquidia, pabellones auditivos grandes y prominentes, paladar profundo y ojival, prognatismo mandibular, maloclusión y anomalías dentarias. El objetivo de este informe fue presentar el caso clínico de una paciente de 16 años con SXF, leucodermia, que se sometió a un tratamiento ortopédico funcional de los maxilares para la corrección del apiñamiento dentario. En el examen clínico se observaron timidez, ansiedad, inestabilidad emocional, trastornos conductuales esporádicos asociados a discapacidad intelectual leve, alteraciones craneofaciales y oclusales. Luego del estudio, evaluación radiográfica panorámica y trazados cefalométricos, se decidió instalar un dispositivo ortopédico funcional de maxilar, tipo Pistas Planas Indirectas, para posterior tratamiento ortodóncico correctivo. Bien al inicio del tratamiento se observó dificultad de comprensión y colaboración por parte de la paciente y su responsable (madre) y, luego de 5 meses, aún con mejoras en las funciones estomatognáticas, se inició el tratamiento ortodóntico con dispositivo fijo, el que fue concluido luego de dos años. El éxito del tratamiento de ortopedia funcional de los maxilares y/u ortodóntico, principalmente en el SXF, se basa en el abordaje comportamental y motivación en todas las etapas del tratamiento por el profesional, así como en un ambiente familiar colaborativo.


The Fragile-X Syndrome (FXS) is a disorder linked to X chromosome, on the long arm Xq27.3, causing several changes such as behavioral problems, intellectual disability, macroorchidism, large and prominent auricles, deep and ogival palate, mandibular prognathism, increased mandibular angle, malocclusion, and dental anomalies. The objective was to present a case of a 16-year-old patient with FXS, leukoderma, submitted to orthopedic functional maxillary treatment to correct dental crowding. In general, clinical examination, behavioral changes such as shyness, anxiety, emotional lability, sporadic disturbances of behavior associated with mild mental disabilities were remarkable. After panoramic radiographic evaluation and cephalometric tracings, it was decided to install the functional orthopedic appliance of the jaws, Indirect Flat Planes type, for later corrective orthodontic treatment. At beginning of treatment, there was a difficulty in understanding and collaborating, not only from the patient's side but also from the mother's. After five months, even with the improvement in stomatognathic functions, orthodontic treatment with a fixed appliance was started, which was concluded after two years. Success of functional and / or orthodontic jaw orthopedics treatment, especially in FXS, is based on behavioral approach and motivation in all stages, by the professional as well as a collaborative family environment.

ABSTRACT

Class III malocclusion is a relevant public health problem. The management of severe skeletal class III malocclusion in non-growing patients requires properly planned and well-executed orthognathic surgery by a team of at least an orthodontist and a maxillofacial surgeon. For these cases, there are two approaches to the surgery. One of them is the conventional three-stage method, which includes preoperative orthodontic treatment, orthognathic surgery, and postoperative orthodontic treatment. The other is the surgery-first orthognathic approach, which is performed without pre-surgical orthodontic treatment and should present some advantages compared to the conventional technique. However, at present, evidence on the management of class III malocclusion still needs to be expanded. In this paper, we present the management of a case of severe skeletal class III malocclusion by surgery-first orthodontic approach, based on the experience of the Tamil Nadu Government Dental College and Hospital, Chennai, India.


La maloclusión clase III es un problema de salud pública importante. El tratamiento de la maloclusión clase III esquelética grave en pacientes que no están en crecimiento, requiere una cirugía ortognática planificada de forma apropiada y bien ejecutada, por un equipo de al menos un ortodoncista y un cirujano maxilofacial. Para estos casos, existen dos enfoques para la cirugía: el método convencional de tres etapas, que incluye tratamiento de ortodoncia preoperatorio, cirugía ortognática y tratamiento de ortodoncia posoperatorio; y el abordaje primario de cirugía ortognática, que se realiza sin tratamiento de ortodoncia prequirúrgico y debe presentar algunas ventajas en comparación con la técnica convencional. Sin embargo, en la actualidad, las pruebas sobre el abordaje de la maloclusión clase III aún deben ampliarse. En este artículo, presentamos el abordaje de un caso de maloclusión clase III esquelética grave mediante el abordaje inicial con cirugía ortognática, basado en la experiencia del Hospital y Colegio Odontológico del Gobierno de Tamil Nadu, Chennai, India.

ABSTRACT

Despite being associated with more accuracy, the indirect bonding procedure is not yet the gold standard, probably because of sensitivity of the numerous variables that must be controlled. The aim of this article was to present a modified, standardized, and low-cost indirect bonding technique that allows this procedure to be performed successfully. The technique covers an initial clinical stage, to obtain the models; a laboratory stage, which involves placement of brackets on the models following the facial axis of the clinical crown and the labial projection of the marginal ridges of the posterior teeth and construction of transfer tray using hot glue; and a second clinical stage, to properly transfer the brackets to patient's teeth. Hot glue used to build the tray molds the teeth and perfectly adapts to the teeth, having enough stiffness to maintain their anatomy and the position of the brackets, but also presenting adequate flexibility to allow removal of the tray avoiding excessive stress over the brackets. In conclusion, the new simplified indirect bonding technique presented here provides a precise placement of brackets on the models, a cheaper way to transfer them to patient, and an easy removal of transfer tray, being a very simple and cost-effective method.

ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT Objective: This paper aims to verify the thermodynamic, mechanical and chemical properties of CuNiTi 35ºC commercial wires. Methods: Forty pre-contoured copper-nickel-titanium thermodynamic 0.017 x 0.025-in archwires with an Af temperature of 35°C were used. Eight wires from five different manufacturers (American Orthodontics® [G1], Eurodonto® [G2], Morelli® [G3], Ormco® [G4] and Orthometric® [G5]) underwent cross-sectional dimension measurements, tensile tests, SEM-EDS and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) tests. Parametric tests (One-way ANOVA and Tukey post-test) were used, with a significance level of 5%, and Pearson's correlation coefficient test was performed between the Af and chemical elements of the wires. All sample tests and statistical analyses were double-blinded. Results: All wires presented standard dimensions (0.017 x 0.025-in) and superelastic behavior, with mean plateau forces of: G1 = 36.49N; G2 = 27.34N; G3 = 19.24 N; G4 = 37.54 N; and G5 = 17.87N. The Af means were: G1 = 29.40°C, G2 = 29.13°C and G3 = 31.43°C, with p>0.05 relative to each other. G4 (32.77°C) and G5 (35.17°C) presented statistically significant differences between each other and among the other groups. All samples presented Ni, Ti, Cu and Al in different concentrations. Conclusions: The chemical concentration of the elements that compose the alloy significantly influenced the thermodynamic and mechanical properties.


RESUMO Objetivo: O presente artigo teve como objetivo verificar as propriedades termodinâmicas, mecânicas e químicas de fios CuNiTi 35°C comerciais. Métodos: Foram utilizados 40 arcos termodinâmicos pré-contornados de cobre-níquel-titânio de 0,017" x 0,025" e temperatura Af de 35°C. Oito fios de cinco fabricantes diferentes (American Orthodontics® [G1], Eurodonto® [G2], Morelli® [G3], Ormco® [G4] e Orthometric® [G5]) foram submetidos a medições de suas secções transversais, testes de tração, MEV-EDS e calorimetria diferencial (DSC). Foram utilizados testes paramétricos (One-way ANOVA e pós-teste de Tukey), com nível de significância de 5%, e foi realizado o teste do coeficiente de correlação de Pearson entre a temperatura Af e os elementos químicos dos fios. Todos os testes das amostras e análises estatísticas foram duplo-cegos. Resultados: Todos os fios apresentavam dimensões padronizadas (0,017" x 0,025") e comportamento superelástico, com forças médias de platô de G1 = 36,49 N; G2 = 27,34 N; G3 = 19,24 N; G4 = 37,54 N; e G5 = 17,87 N. As médias de Af foram: G1 = 29,40°C, G2 = 29,13°C e G3 = 31,43°C, com p> 0,05 entre si. G4 (32,77°C) e G5 (35,17°C) apresentaram diferenças estatisticamente significativas entre si e entre os demais grupos. Todas as amostras apresentaram Ni, Ti, Cu e Al em diferentes concentrações. Conclusões: A concentração química dos elementos que compõem a liga influenciou significativamente as propriedades termodinâmicas e mecânicas.

ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT Introduction: Skeletal posterior crossbite (SPCB) has a multifactorial etiology, as it may be caused by parafunctional habits, atypical position of the tongue, tooth losses and maxillary or mandibular transverse skeletal asymmetries. Skeletal involvement may lead to facial changes and an unfavorable aesthetic appearance. The treatment of SPCB diagnosed in an adult patient should be correctly approached after the identification of its etiologic factor. Surgically-assisted rapid maxillary expansion (SARME), one of the techniques used to correct SPCB in skeletally mature individuals, is an efficient and stable procedure for the correction of transverse discrepancies that may be performed in the office or in a hospital. Objective: This study discusses the results of asymmetrical SARME used to correct unilateral SPCB associated with transverse mandibular asymmetry. Conclusion: The treatment alternative used in the reported case was quite effective. At the end of the treatment, the patient presented adequate occlusion and facial aesthetics.


RESUMO Introdução: A mordida cruzada posterior esquelética (MCPE) apresenta etiologia multifatorial, podendo ser causada por hábitos parafuncionais, posição atípica da língua, perdas dentárias e assimetrias esqueléticas transversais da maxila ou da mandíbula. Alterações faciais podem estar presentes quando há envolvimento esquelético, levando a estética desfavorável. O tratamento da MCPE, quando diagnosticada no paciente adulto, requer abordagem correta, com identificação do fator etiológico. Entre as técnicas utilizadas para correção da MCPE em pacientes esqueleticamente maduros, cita-se, em especial, a Expansão Rápida de Maxila Assistida Cirurgicamente (ERMAC). Essa modalidade tem se mostrado bastante eficiente na correção dos problemas transversais, apresenta estabilidade e pode ser realizada em ambiente ambulatorial ou hospitalar. Objetivo: O objetivo do presente trabalho será discutir os resultados da ERMAC assimétrica para correção da MCPE unilateral associada a assimetria transversal da mandíbula. Conclusão: A alternativa de tratamento utilizada no caso relatado mostrou-se bastante eficiente. Ao fim do tratamento, o paciente apresentou adequada oclusão e boa estética facial.

ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT Introduction: Supervising the development of occlusion, managing problems during the transition from mixed to permanent dentition, as well as controlling environmental factors that contribute to establishing malocclusion, are important actions to achieve a Class I occlusion with facial balance. Among these problems, the malocclusions associated with dysfunctions such as mouth breathing or obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS), atypical swallowing and abnormal tongue position, open bites, crossbites and maxillomandibular discrepancies, and especially the Class III malocclusion can be listed. Objective: The purpose of this article is to present and discuss the main aspects relevant to the benefits of performing the treatment of Class III malocclusion in patients with growth.


RESUMO Introdução: A supervisão do desenvolvimento da oclusão e o gerenciamento de problemas durante a transição da dentição mista para a permanente, bem como o controle de fatores ambientais que contribuem para estabelecer a má oclusão, são importantes ações para se obter uma oclusão de Classe I com equilíbrio facial. Entre esses problemas, pode-se considerar más oclusões associadas às disfunções como respiração bucal ou síndrome da apneia obstrutiva do sono (SAOS), deglutição atípica, posição anormal da língua, mordidas abertas e mordidas cruzadas e discrepâncias maxilomandibulares, especialmente, a má oclusão de Classe III. Objetivo: O objetivo do presente artigo é apresentar e discutir os principais aspectos pertinentes aos benefícios de se realizar o tratamento da má oclusão de Classe III em pacientes com crescimento.

ABSTRACT

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 the changes caused by three distalizers with different force systems. Methodology 71 patients, divided into three groups, were included. The Jones jig group (JJG, n=30; 16 male, 14 female, 13.17 years mean age) was treated with the Jones jig for 0.8 years. The Distal jet group (DJG, n=25; 8 male, 17 female, 12.57 years mean age) was treated with the Distal jet for 1.06 years. The First Class group (FCG, n=16; 6 male, 10 female, 12.84 years mean age) was treated with the First Class for 0.69 years. Intergroup treatment changes were compared using one-way ANOVA, followed by post-hoc Tukey's tests. Results Intergroup comparisons showed significantly greater maxillary incisor protrusion in DJG than in FCG (2.56±2.24 mm vs. 0.74±1.39mm, p=0.015). The maxillary first premolars showed progressive and significantly smaller mesial angulation in JJG, FCG and DJG, respectively (14.65±6.31º, 8.43±3.99º, 0.97±3.16º; p<0.001). They also showed greater mesialization in JJG than FCG (3.76±1.46 mm vs. 2.27±1.47 mm, p=0.010), and greater extrusion in DJG compared to JJG (0.90±0.77 mm vs 0.11±0.60 mm, p=0.004). The maxillary second premolars showed progressive and significantly smaller mesial angulation and mesialization in JJG, FCG and DJG, respectively (12.77±5.78º, 3.20±3.94º, -2.12±3.71º and 3.87±1.34 mm, 2.25±1.40 mm, 1.24±1.26 mm, respectively; p<0.001). DJG showed smaller distal angulation of maxillary first molars (-2.14±5.09º vs. -7.73±4.28º and -6.05±3.76º, for the JJG and FCG, respectively; p<0.001) and greater maxillary second molars extrusion (1.17±1.41 mm vs -0.02±1.16 mm and 0.16±1.40 mm, for the JJG and FCG, respectively; p=0.003). Overjet change was significantly larger in DJG compared to FCG (1.79±1.67 mm vs 0.68±0.84; p=0.046). Treatment time was smaller in FCG (0.69±0.22 years vs 0.81±0.33 years and 1.06±0.42 years, comparing it with the JJG and DJG, respectively; p=0.005). Conclusion The three appliances corrected the Class II molar relationship by dentoalveolar changes. The Distal jet produced smaller molar distal angulation than the Jones jig and First Class. The First Class appliance showed less anchorage loss, greater percentage of distalization and shorter treatment time than the Jones jig and Distal jet.

ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT: This case describes the treatment of Class II malocclusion in a patient missing one of the maxillary central incisors due to traumatic impaction. The treatment approach consisted in the extraction of the remaining maxillary central incisor, followed by diastema closure and re-anatomization of lateral incisors into central incisors. The results obtained were considered satisfactory concerning occlusal, aesthetic and functional aspects. This therapeutic approach may be used as an alternative for similar cases.


RESUMEN: Este caso clínico describe el tratamiento de la mala oclusión de Clase II en un paciente con ausencia de uno de los incisivos centrales superiores debido a impactación. El abordaje del tratamiento consistió en la extracción de este elemento dental y del otro incisivo central, seguido del cierre de los diastemas y reanatomización de los incisivos laterales en incisivos centrales. Los resultados obtenidos fueron considerados satisfactorios con relación a los aspectos oclusales, estéticos y funcionales. Así, esta planificación se puede utilizar como una nueva alternativa de abordaje terapéutico para estos casos.

ABSTRACT

RESUMEN Las anomalías de clase II y III esqueletales son una afección del desarrollo, en la mayoría de los casos, no se debe a procesos patológicos, sino a una moderada distorsión del desarrollo normal, ello provoca alteración de la estética que influye en los niveles de autoestima de los pacientes. El objetivo del estudio fue evaluar las modificaciones esqueletales y de autoestima con bloques gemelos. Se realizó un estudio cuasi-experimental modalidad antes y después sin grupo control, en 35 pacientes con clase II y III esqueletal, ingresados en la Consulta de Ortodoncia de la Clínica Universitaria de Especialidades Estomatológicas "Manuel Cedeño", en el período comprendido entre enero a noviembre de 2018. Como medio de diagnóstico se empleó el examen clínico, la cefalometría y el Inventario de Autoestima elaborado por Cooper smith. Se obtuvo como resultado que el 71,42 % pertenecen a las edades de 12 y 13 años, y el 54,28 % son del sexo femenino; el 65,71 % de los pacientes presentó clase II esqueletal y el 34,28 % clase III antes del tratamiento, luego de éste, la anomalía esqueletal se corrigió en el 91,42 % de los casos; al caracterizar la población objeto de estudio se reveló que la autoestima fue baja en el 60,00 % antes del tratamiento, y luego fue de alta en el 74,28 %. Se concluye que la población de estudio presentó anomalías esqueletales y baja autoestima al inicio del tratamiento que se corrigió y mejoró, respectivamente, en la mayoría de los pacientes mediante el tratamiento con los bloques gemelos estándar y clase III.


ABSTRACT Skeletal class II and III anomalies are a developmental condition, in most cases, not due to pathological processes, but to a moderate distortion of normal development, this causes alteration of the aesthetic that influences the levels of self-esteem of the patients. The objective of the study was to evaluate the skeletal and self-esteem modifications with twin blocks. We performed a quasi-experimental modality before and after without a control group, in 35 patients with skeletal class II and III, admitted to the Orthodontic Consultation of the University Clinic of Stomatological Specialties "Manuel Cedeño", in the period from January to November 2018.The clinical examination, the cephalometry and the Self-esteem Inventory prepared by Coppersmiths were used as diagnostic means. It was obtained as a result that 71,42% belong to the ages of 12 and 13 years, and 54,28 % are female; 65,71% of patients presented class II skeletal and 34,28% class III before treatment, after this, the skeletal anomaly was corrected in 91,42% of cases; When characterizing the population under study it was revealed that self-esteem was low in 60,00% before treatment, and then it was high in 74,28%. It was concluded that the population studied presented skeletal anomalies and low self-esteem at the beginning of the treatment, which was corrected and improved, respectively, in the majority of patients by treatment with the standard twin and class III twin blocks.

ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT Orthodontic traction of impacted canines stands as a major challenge for Orthodontics. It is a relatively frequent clinical complaint which management, more often than not, requires a multidisciplinary approach. Surgical exposure of the impacted canine, and the complex orthodontic mechanics applied to align the tooth back into the arch, may frequently lead to complications involving supporting tissues, not to mention the long treatment time and high costs imposed to patients. In face of that, it is worth highlighting the relevance of early diagnosis as to intervene efficiently and as soon as possible. This paper presents a review of the main concepts involving prevalence, etiology and classification of impacted canines, and describes the different clinical management options that would help solve the problem. It illustrates the topic by presenting a treatment delivered to a 13 year 7 months old male patient, suffering from a Class II, division 2, left subdivision, malocclusion, associated to a deep bite and a prolonged retention of a primary upper canine caused by the impaction of the permanent tooth. Corrective orthodontic therapy was associated to a rapid maxillary expansion and to the use of a high pull headgear. Impacted canine was submitted to orthodontic traction and correctly positioned back into the arch. This approach proved to be efficient in meeting both functional and aesthetic goals.


RESUMO O tracionamento de caninos impactados representa um dos grandes desafios da Ortodontia. Trata-se de um problema clínico relativamente frequente, cujo tratamento muitas vezes requer uma abordagem multidisciplinar. A exposição cirúrgica do canino impactado e a complexa mecânica ortodôntica aplicada para alinhar o dente na respectiva arcada podem, com frequência, levar a complicações nos tecidos de suporte, sem mencionar o longo tempo de tratamento e os custos elevados para o paciente. Por isso, vale a pena ressaltar a importância dos diagnósticos precoces, para que a interceptação do problema seja feita o mais cedo possível e de maneira eficaz. O presente trabalho apresenta uma revisão dos principais conceitos envolvendo a prevalência, etiologia e classificação dos caninos impactados, e descreve os vários tipos de abordagem clínica para a resolução do problema. Ao final, ilustra o tema com a apresentação de um tratamento realizado em um paciente de 13 anos e 7 meses de idade, portador de má oclusão de Classe II, divisão 2, subdivisão esquerda, associado a mordida profunda, que apresentava retenção prolongada de um canino superior decíduo, devido à impacção de seu sucessor permanente. O tratamento ortodôntico corretivo foi associado à expansão rápida de maxila e ao uso de aparelho extrabucal de tração cervical. O canino impactado foi tracionado ortodonticamente e posicionado corretamente na arcada. Essa abordagem foi eficiente para atingir as metas funcionais e estéticas propostas.

ABSTRACT

Objetivo: realizar uma revisão de literatura sobre os tipos de tratamento empregados na correção da mordida aberta anterior. Materiais e métodos: foi realizada uma busca nas bases de dados PubMed, SciELO e Google Acadêmico. Os termos inseridos na pesquisa foram: Mordida Aberta; Ortodontia Corretiva; Ortodontia; Ortodontia Interceptora; Open Bite; Orthodontics, Corrective; Orthodontics; Orthodontics, Interceptive. Revisão da Literatura: a mordida aberta anterior (MAA) é uma má oclusão dentária que pode promover alteração do perfil e da fisionomia do indivíduo, dificultando também a apreensão e o corte dos alimentos. A MAA é uma das más oclusões de maior comprometimento estético-funcional, podendo ser dentária ou esquelética. A etiologia da mordida aberta anterior é multifatorial, sendo que as principais causas são hereditariedade e causas ambientais. Esses fatores interferem no crescimento e desenvolvimento normais das estruturas faciais, modificando não somente a morfologia, mas, também, a função do sistema estomatognático. Considerações finais: conclui-se que o diagnóstico precoce e a remoção do fator etiológico são fundamentais para a evolução adequada do tratamento ortodôntico.(AU)


Objective: to perform a literature review on the types of treatment used in anterior open bite correction. Materials and methods: a search was performed in the PubMed, SciELO, and Google Scholar databases. The terms entered in the search were Mordida Aberta; Ortodontia Corretiva; Ortodontia; Ortodontia Interceptora; Open Bite; Orthodontics, Corrective; Orthodontics; Orthodontics, Interceptive. Literature Review: anterior open bite (AOB) is a dental malocclusion that may change the profile and physiognomy of individuals, making it difficult to grasp and cut food. The AOB is one of the malocclusions with the most aesthetic and functional impairments, and it may be dental or skeletal. The etiology of anterior open bite is multifactorial and the main causes are heredity and environmental causes. These factors interfere with the normal growth and development of facial structures, modifying not only the morphology but also the function of the stomatognathic system. Final considerations: it is concluded that the early diagnosis and removal of the etiological factor are essential for the proper evolution of the orthodontic treatment.(AU)

ABSTRACT

Abstract Introduction: In the literature, no consensus has been reached about orthodontic treatment time. Similarly, the determining factors of the latter have not yet been completely elucidated. Objective: The aim of the present article was to deepen the discussion on the major factors influencing orthodontic treatment time, as well as to present some strategies that have proven effective in controlling and shortening it. Method: Based on evidences found in the literature, the method focussed in providing the basis for clinical decision-making. Conclusions: Treatment time varies according to the type of malocclusion and treatment options. Orthodontist's influence, patient's characteristics and compliance are all decisive in determining treatment time, while the effects provided by orthodontic appliances and methods used to speed tooth movement up seem little effective.


Resumo Introdução: não existe consenso na literatura sobre a duração do tratamento ortodôntico, e os fatores relacionados com a sua determinação ainda não estão totalmente elucidados. Objetivo: o objetivo do presente artigo foi aprofundar a discussão dos principais fatores que podem influenciar na duração do tratamento ortodôntico, bem como apresentar algumas estratégias que têm se mostrado eficientes para controlá-la e reduzi-la. Método: a partir das evidências apresentadas na literatura, fundamentar as decisões clínicas. Conclusões: o tempo de tratamento varia de acordo com o tipo de má oclusão e com as opções de tratamento. A influência do ortodontista, as características do paciente e sua colaboração são fatores decisivos na definição do tempo de tratamento, enquanto os efeitos dos dispositivos ortodônticos e os métodos de aceleração do movimento dentário parecem ser pouco efetivos.

ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT Objective: The aim of this study was to compare the skeletal, dental, and soft tissue effects of the Mandibular Protraction Appliance (MPA) application in adolescent and adult Class II malocclusion patients. Methods: The sample comprised the pretreatment and posttreatment lateral cephalograms of 39 subjects presenting Class II malocclusion treated with the MPA and fixed appliances. Sample was divided into two groups: Group 1 comprised 23 subjects (10 male; 13 female), at a mean pretreatment age of 11.75 years, with a mean treatment time of 3.32 years; Group 2 included 16 subjects (7 male; 9 female), at a mean pretreatment age of 22.41 years, with a mean treatment time of 4.24 years. Intergroup comparison of the initial and final stages and treatment changes between the groups was performed with t tests, at p< 0.05. Results: The adults showed less significant amounts of skeletal, dentoalveolar and soft tissue changes than the adolescents. There was significantly greater palatal tipping of the maxillary incisors and retrusion of the upper lip in the adolescents. The adult group showed greater mandibular incisor proclination in the posttreatment stage. Conclusion: Adult patients treated with MPA showed less significant amounts of skeletal, dentoalveolar and soft tissue changes than adolescents.


RESUMO Objetivo: o objetivo do presente estudo foi comparar os efeitos esqueléticos, dentários e em tecidos moles do Aparelho de Protração Mandibular (APM) em pacientes adolescentes e adultos com má oclusão de Classe II. Métodos: a amostra consistiu das telerradiografias pré- e pós-tratamento de 39 indivíduos com má oclusão de Classe II tratados com APM e aparelhos fixos. A amostra foi dividida em dois grupos: o Grupo 1 compreendeu 23 indivíduos (10 homens e 13 mulheres), com idade inicial de 11,75 anos, com um tempo médio de tratamento de 3,32 anos; o Grupo 2 incluiu 16 pacientes (7 do sexo masculino e 9 do sexo feminino), com idade média inicial de 22,41 anos, com um tempo médio de tratamento de 4,24 anos. A comparação intergrupos dos estágios inicial e final e das alterações com o tratamento foi realizada com testes t, considerando-se um nível de significância de p< 0,05. Resultados: os adultos apresentaram quantidades menos significativas de alterações esqueléticas, dentoalveolares e de tecidos moles do que os adolescentes. Houve uma inclinação palatina significativamente maior dos incisivos superiores e retrusão do lábio superior nos adolescentes. O grupo de adultos apresentou maior proclinação dos incisivos inferiores no estágio pós-tratamento. Conclusão: pacientes adultos tratados com APM apresentaram quantidades menos significativas de alterações esqueléticas, dentoalveolares e de tecidos moles do que os adolescentes.

ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT Unilateral condylar hyperplasia (UCH) is a pathological condition affecting not only facial appearance and occlusal relationships, but also mandibular joints health. The accurate and timely diagnosis, along with a therapeutic work and a multidisciplinary approach, help reduce the morphological alterations caused by this pathology. Orthodontics plays an important role in the various treatment modalities because of its role not only in presurgical dentoalveolar decompensation but also in dentoalveolar compensation with vertical management when the asymmetry allows it. The following therapeutic proposal describes the treatment of patients with active UCH subjected to high condylectomy surgery immediately after orthodontic dentoalveolar compensation with Multi-Loop Edgewise Archwire (MEAW) for the vertical handling of occlusal canting and maintenance of the orthopedic position of the mandible. All cases were satisfactorily resolved with the same diagnostic and treatment protocol. The conclusion is that, with adequate diagnosis and orthodontic management following condylectomy, non-severe cases of UCH may be treated.


RESUMEN La hiperplasia condilar unilateral (HCU) es una condición patológica que compromete tanto la estética facial como la relación oclusal y la salud articular. El diagnóstico correcto y oportuno, junto al abordaje terapéutico con un enfoque multidisciplinario, contribuyen a minimizar las alteraciones morfológicas que deja esta patología. La ortodoncia juega un papel importante en las diferentes modalidades de tratamiento, ya sea por su papel en la descompensación dentoalveolar prequirúrgica o en la compensación dentoalveolar con manejo vertical cuando la asimetría lo permite. La siguiente propuesta terapéutica muestra el abordaje de pacientes con HCU activa sometidos a cirugía de condilectomía alta, quienes inmediatamente después recibieron una compensación ortodóncica dentoalveolar con técnica modificada de arco de canto multiansas (MEAW) para el manejo vertical del canteamiento de la oclusión y el mantenimiento de la orto-posición de la mandíbula. Todos los casos se resolvieron de manera satisfactoria con el mismo protocolo diagnóstico y de tratamiento. Concluimos que, con un diagnóstico adecuado y un manejo ortodóncico posterior a condilectomía, se pueden tratar casos no severos de HCU.

ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT Tooth transposition is one of the most difficult dental anomalies to treat in the dental clinic. Several factors must be taken into account with a view of making the best decision. The aim of this study was to discuss treatment modalities for tooth transposition, their advantages and disadvantages. Additionally, it aims at presenting a clinical case of transposition between canine and lateral incisor in the upper quadrant on the right side. The treatment of choice was extraction of one transposed tooth. A multidisciplinary approach involving Orthodontics, Cosmetic Dentistry, and Periodontology was necessary to allow proper esthetic and functional outcomes to be achieved.


RESUMO A transposição é considerada uma das anomalias dentárias mais difíceis de se administrar clinicamente. Vários fatores devem ser considerados para que a melhor decisão seja tomada. Neste artigo, o objetivo foi discutir as modalidades de tratamento da transposição dentária, suas vantagens e desvantagens, e apresentar um caso clínico de transposição entre canino e incisivo lateral na hemiarcada superior direita. A opção terapêutica de escolha foi a extração de um dos dentes transpostos, tendo-se a necessidade de uma abordagem multidisciplinar com a participação da Ortodontia, Dentística e Periodontia, a fim de que adequados resultados estéticos e funcionais fossem alcançados.
