Q

■ Mesial root tip

● Reduces

A

Q

Mesial root tip

A

● Intrudes tooth

22
Q

■ Combination of distal crown tip & mesial root tip

● Goal is

A

distal crown tip, but want to prevent extrusion

23
Q

Combination of distal crown tip and mesail root tip

○ To prevent extrusion →

A

use T-loops or helical mechanics to intrude tooth &/or move roots mesially

24
Q
  1. Forced eruption:

○ Indications:

A

■ Subgingival tooth fx

25
1. Forced eruption: ○ Indications: ● Can’t restore
subgingival fx; will either need to extract or extrude tooth to provide tooth structure for restoration
26
1. Forced eruption: ○ Indications: ■ Periodontal disease & vertical bony defect ○ Treatment options:
■ Perio crown lengthening - limitation is crown-root ratio | ■ Orthodontic rapid extrusion
27
1. Forced eruption: ○ Indications: ■ Orthodontic rapid extrusion
● Spring helical mechanism (straight wire would tip adjacent teeth)
28
1. Forced eruption: ○ Orthodontic extrusion ⇒
orthodontic forces used for extrusion
29
Ortho extrusion | ■ PDL/alveolar bone follows
extruding tooth
30
1. Forced eruption: | ○ Rapid extrusion ⇒
heavier forces & more frequent activations
31
1. Forced eruption: | ■ Tooth extruded without
periodontium following (partial extraction)
32
1. Forced eruption: | ■ Lengthens
clinical crown - to expose sound tooth & root structure
33
1. Forced eruption: | ○ Retention period important -
long retention period to prevent re-intrusion
34
1. Intrusion for supra-erupted teeth | ○ Anterior tooth intrusion ⇒
possible with conventional orthodontics
35
Intrusion for supra-erupted teeth | ○ Posterior tooth intrusion ⇒
possibly ONLY with reinforced anchorage - TADs or implants
36
Intrusion for supra-erupted teeth | Intrusion ⇒ one of the most
difficult orthodontic movements to accomplish
37
Intrusion for supra-erupted teeth | ● Often with extrusion, patients have
vertical periodontal defects (bc bone following extruded tooth)
38
Skeletal anchorage ⇒ utilizes
osseointegration (implants) or TADs (temporary anchorage devices)
39
● TADs ⇒ allow
previously difficult tooth movements possible (ie. posterior tooth intrusion)
40
TADs | ○ Simplifies
ortho biomechanics & speeds up treatment
41
TADs | ■ Allows for
symmetric force. (ie. placing TAD’s buccally & lingually to extruded tooth allows intrusion w/o tipping)
42
Tooth Proportions: | ● Maxillary incisors: ideally ~
10mm tall & 8.5 mm wide
43
Tooth proportions | ○ Ideal width to height ratio
80-84% ● Golden proportion ● Recurring Esthetic Dental Dimension ○ 70% proportion recommended for average teeth length (lateral width 70% of central)
44
Maxillary & mandibular anterior attrition & supra-eruption ● As teeth undergo attrition →
tend to supra-erupt & gingival margins change
45
○ Laterals should have the most
cervical gingival margin
46
● Intruding anteriors will create
open bite for general dentist to restor
47
Congenitally missing maxillary lateral incisors | ● Canines can erupt in place of
missing laterals (good bc brings alveolar bone with it; allows for future implant if decide to distalize canines)
48
Congenitally missing maxillary lateral incisors ● Treatment plan depend on pt: ○ Class II with overjet →
treat canine as lateral & close space to reduce overjet
49
Congenitally missing maxillary lateral incisors ● Treatment plan depend on pt: ○ Class I →
distalize canines to class I position & restore w/ implants
50
Congenitally missing maxillary lateral incisors | ■ Adj. roots must be
upright to allow for implant placement
