ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the rate of lower canine retraction, anchorage loss, and changes on lower canines and first molars axial inclination using self-ligating and conventional brackets. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Twenty-five adult patients with a treatment plan involving extractions of four first premolars were selected for this split-mouth trial and had either conventional or self-ligating brackets bonded to lower canines in a block randomization. Retraction was accomplished using 100-g nickel titanium closed-coil springs, which were reactivated each 4 weeks. Oblique radiographs were taken before and after total canine retraction and the cephalograms were superimposed on stable structures of the mandible. Cephalometric points were digitized twice by a single-blinded operator for error control and the average of the points were used to determine the following variables: canine cusp horizontal changes, molar cusp horizontal changes, and angulation changes in canines and molars. Paired t tests were used to analyze the blinded data for group differences. RESULTS: All patients reached final phase without bracket debonds. No differences were found between the two groups for all variables tested. No serious harm was observed. CONCLUSION: Both brackets showed the same rate of canine retraction and loss of anteroposterior anchorage of the molars. No changes were found between brackets regarding the inclination of canines and first molars. CLINICAL RELEVANCE: Using self-ligating brackets to retract lower canines will not increase the velocity of tooth movement, does not increase anchorage, and does not decrease tipping.

ABSTRACT

Although maxillary central incisors impaction is not a high frequent clinical condition, it is responsible for some undesirable aspects of patients smile from esthetic and functional points of view. There are some etiologic factors associated to this dental disturbance but the scientific literature is consensual on determining the importance of the early diagnosis and proper intervention. This manuscript consists on the case report of a 10 years old boy with Class I malocclusion, who showed during the mixed dentition phase, impaction of maxillary central incisors related to deciduous teeth retention and due to the presence of 2 mesiodens. The treatment proposed involved the surgical removal of the mesiodens, bonding of orthodontic accessories to the impacted incisors crowns followed by orthodontic traction with a removable orthodontic appliance. Regardless the development stage of the dentition was not ideal for this intervention, once the diagnosis should have been done as earlier as possible, favorable esthetic and functional results were attained.


A impacção de incisivos centrais superiores é uma condição clínica que embora não seja muito frequente, é um fator desagradável do ponto de vista estético e funcional. Existem diversas causas dessa alteração e a literatura é consensual quanto à necessidade da realização do diagnóstico e da intervenção o mais precocemente possível. Este trabalho traz o relato de um caso clínico de um paciente com 10 anos de idade, na fase da dentição mista, com má oclusão de Classe I, impacção de incisivos centrais superiores associado à retenção prolongada dos decíduos e a presença de dois supra-numerários na linha média. A conduta proposta foi à remoção cirúrgica dos mesiodens, colagem de dispositivos ortodônticos nos incisivos centrais impactados e, tracionamento ortodôntico com aparelho removível. Desta forma, embora a época de tratamento não fosse a ideal, pois o diagnóstico deveria ter sido estabelecido o mais precocemente possível, alcançou-se um resultado estético e funcional favorável.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the velocity of canine retraction, anchorage loss and changes on canine and first molar inclinations using self-ligating and conventional brackets. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Twenty-five adults with Class I malocclusion and a treatment plan involving extractions of four first premolars were selected for this randomized split-mouth control trial. Patients had either conventional or self-ligating brackets bonded to maxillary canines randomly. Retraction was accomplished using 100-g nickel-titanium closed coil springs, which were reactivated every 4 weeks. Oblique radiographs were taken before and after canine retraction was completed, and the cephalograms were superimposed on stable structures of the maxilla. Cephalometric points were digitized twice by a blinded operator for error control, and the following landmarks were collected: canine cusp and apex horizontal changes, molar cusp and apex horizontal changes, and angulation changes in canines and molars. The blinded data, which were normally distributed, were analyzed through paired t-tests for group differences. RESULTS: No differences were found between the two groups for all variables tested. CONCLUSIONS: Both brackets showed the same velocity of canine retraction and loss of anteroposterior anchorage of the molars. No changes were found between brackets regarding the inclination of canines and first molars.

ABSTRACT

This manuscript describes the use of a tooth indicated for extraction due to orthodontic reasons as an anchorage aid to receive undesirable side effects caused by orthodontic uprighting of a contralateral molar tooth. The mandibular right second molar was mesially tipped as a result of loss of the adjacent first molar. Since the treatment plan involved extraction of the mandibular left first premolar, undesirable side effects associated with the molar uprighting movement were transferred to this tooth. Once the second molar was vertical, the premolar was extracted and the treatment continued. The results suggest that treatment time can be reduced if undesirable orthodontic mechanical side effects can be directed to a tooth whose extraction is indicated.

ABSTRACT

IIntrodução: Este estudo teve como objetivos: Avaliar a influência de diferentes protocolos de condicionamento do esmalte e de cura luminosa dos sistemas adesivos testados, na resistência da colagem de bráquetes de cerâmica ao cisalhamento; na ocorrência de fraturas de esmalte e na quantidade de adesivo remanescente. Além disso, o Método dos Elementos Finitos foi empregado para analisar como os esforços relativos à descolagem atuaram na superfície do esmalte. Com auxílio da Microscopia eletrônica de varredura, avaliou-se a ação de 05 métodos para remoção da camada de adesivo remanescente quanto às alterações geradas nas características superficiais originais do esmalte e quanto ao tempo de execução dos procedimentos. Material de Método: 40 bráquetes Inspire IceTM, 40 bráquetes ClarityTM e 40 bráquetes GeminiTM foram aleatoriamente colados a 120 pré-molares com faces vestibulares hígidas, seguindo diferentes protocolos de condicionamento do esmalte e de fotopolimerização. Essas colagens foram testadas em ensaio mecânico por cisalhamento e também analisadas pelo método dos elementos finitos. Além disso, 25 molares permanentes com faces vestibulares hígidas passaram pela remoção de camadas padronizadas de adesivo remanescente com 05 métodos diferentes. As superfícies iniciais e finais de cada dente foram avaliadas por meio da microscopia eletrônica de varredura. O tempo gasto na execução de cada procedimento foi também avaliado. Resultados: As colagens com o TPSEP apresentaram menores valores de resistência da colagem ao cisalhamento e não estiveram associadas a fraturas de esmalte. Houve coincidência entre o modo de descolagem dos braquetes e a distribuição dos esforços na superfície do modelo 3D. As menores alterações à superfície do esmalte foram geradas pela broca multilaminada em baixa rotação. Conclusão: O TPSEP mostrou ser o modo de condicionamento de esmalte mais adequado para colagem de bráquetes; a não fotopolimerização do primer reduziu as resistências das colagens ao cisalhamento dos bráquetes metálicos, mas não as dos bráquetes cerâmicos; o tempo de execução do procedimento e o aspecto final da superfície do esmalte demonstraram que a broca multilaminada em baixa deve ser o método de escolha para remoção dos resíduos de adesivo


Introduction: The aims of this study were to evaluate the influence of different protocols for enamel acidic etching and for light-curing of the adhesive systems tested about: shear bond strength of ceramic brackets; occurrence of enamel fractures and adhesive remnant index. Finite element method was also used to identify how debonding efforts act on enamel surface. Scanning Electron Microscopy was applied to assess the changes observed on original enamel surface characteristics generated by 05 methods for residual adhesive removal. The chair time related to the 05 methods under study was also evaluated. Material and Methods: 40 Inspire Ice Brackets; 40 Clarity Brackets and 40 metal Brackets (Gemini) were randomly bonded to 120 bicuspides, using different protocols of enamel conditioning and photo-activation. 25 permanent molars were submitted to the removal of standardized adhesive layers, using 05 different methods. Initial and final surfaces were comparatively evaluated by scanning electron microscopy. The procedures chair times were also assessed. Results: Transbond Plus Self-etching Primer promoted bracket bonding with lower shear bond strengths and debonding procedures without enamel fractures. FEM analysis showed coincidence among efforts distribution simulated over the tridimensional model surfaces and the real debonding damages caused on enamel. The multi-blade carbide bur in low hand-piece speed caused lower alterations over enamel original surface. Conclusion: TPSEP seemed to be the adequate method for bracket bonding; metallic bracket bonding showed lower shear bond strength without primer light-curing but it was not true for the ceramic brackets; chair time of the procedure and the final aspect of enamel surface demonstrated that multi-blade carbide burr may be the method of choice to remove residual adhesive

ABSTRACT

Quando bem indicado, o tratamento ortodôntico cirúrgico consiste na abordagem ideal para adultos portadores de má oclusão Classe III esquelética. Para potencializar os resultados estéticos decorrentes da cirurgia ortognática, a fase de alinhamento e nivelamento do arco superior deve ser realizada com o mínimo de inclinação e projeção, ou até mesmo, retroinclinação dos incisivos superiores. No período pré-cirúrgico, a força extrabucal bilateral de 150 gF foi aplicada por 12 meses aos primeiros molares superiores de um paciente colaborador, do gênero masculino, 22 anos de idade, portador de má oclusão Classe III esquelética, para promover controle da inclinação mesial e da projeção dos dentes superiores. Os parâmetros oclusais requeridos para a translação cirúrgica das bases ósseas foram obtidos sem a necessidade de extrações, permitindo que o tempo total de tratamento fosse de 37 meses, tendo o paciente mostrado estabilidade no acompanhamento por 3 anos após remoção do aparelho. Esses achados mostram que apesar de depender grandemente da colaboração dos pacientes, quando bem indicado, o aparelho extrabucal consiste em uma alternativa para promover as descompensações dentárias no período pré-cirúrgico, a fim de possibilitar a correção cirúrgica das más oclusões Classe III esqueléticas


When well indicated, the orthodontic surgical approach is the ideal treatment mean for Skeletal Class III adult patients. To improve facial esthetic results from orthognatic surgery, the leveling and alignment of maxillary dental arch must be achieved with minimal inclination and projection or even retro-inclination of anterior upper teeth. During a pre-surgical phase of 12 months, headgear bilateral force of 150 g/F was applied to the upper molars of a 22 years old male compliant patient with Class III skeletal malocclusion, to provide an upper teeth control of mesial tipping and projection during alignment and leveling. The ideal occlusal parameters required for surgical procedure were achieved without dental extractions permitting a total treatment period of 37 months. The outcomes remained stable over 3 years follow up after the removal of the appliance. The results indicate that, although headgear use depends greatly on patient compliance, when well indicated it is an interesting alternativetopromote dentaldecompensationon pre-surgical period, in order to allow surgical correction of skeletal Class III malocclusion

ABSTRACT

INTRODUCTION: The purpose of this study was to use photoelastic analysis to compare the system of forces generated by retraction T-loop springs made with stainless steel and titanium-molybdenum alloy (TMA) (Ormco, Glendora, Calif) with photoelastic analysis. METHODS: Three photoelastic models were used to evaluate retraction T-loop springs with the same preactivations in 2 groups. In group 1, the loop was constructed with a stainless steel wire, and 2 helicoids were incorporated on top of the T-loop; in group 2, it was made with TMA and no helicoids. RESULTS: Upon using the qualitative analysis of the fringe order in the photoelastic model, it was observed that the magnitude of force generated by the springs in group 1 was significantly higher than that in group 2. However, both had symmetry for the active and reactive units related to the system of force. CONCLUSIONS: Both springs had the same mechanical characteristics. TMA springs showed lower force levels.

ABSTRACT

As mordidas cruzadas anteriores e posteriores podem ser tratadas desde as dentaduras decídua e mista. Embora a literatura descreva diversas técnicas para a correção individualizada desses problemas, o tratamento de pacientes com as duas alterações é pouco documementado. O presente artigo relata o tratamento desses problemas com o expansor tipo Haas associado a molas digitais. Essa alternativa, apresenta boa previsibilidade, fácil confecção e instalação, e ótima eficiência.

ABSTRACT

Os efeitos decorrentes da Expansão Rápida da Maxila (ERM) extrapolam os limites da sutura palatina mediana e podem envolver modificações nas dimenções faciais em diferentes níveis. O objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar, através das telerradiografias póstero-anteriores, os efeitos imediatos relacionados à terapia da expansão rápida da maxila em 6 pacientes, na faixa etária dos 7 anos e 7 meses aos 11 anos de idade, submetidos a um mesmo protocolo de ativação do parafuso expansor de 1/4 de volta a cada 12 horas. O aparelho utilizado em todos os casos foi o tipo Haas modificado. Foram realizadas telerradiografias póstero-anteriores antes da expansão e imediatamente após o bloqueio dos parafusos. Com o auxílio do Programa "Dentofacial Planner Plus", foram mensuradas distâncias transversais entre 10 pontos anatômicos faciais laterais previamente selecionadas. O número e o tempo médio de ativações foram de 32,8 quartos de volta, em 21,7 dias. Verificou-se maior modificação nas distâncias dentárias sendo observados aumentos importantes em áreas distantes da região dento-alveolar, como base nasal e a distância inter-jugal. Não foram observadas modificações transversais na mandibula imediatamente após a realização do procedimento
