Maxillary Molar Distalization With Introral Fixed Appliances And Miniscrew Anchorage — Case Report, Tung-Yu Li, Fang-Chin Chen, Hwai-Jen Fong, Tzu-Ying Wu, Sou-Hsin Kuang

Fixed maxillary molar distalization appliance is an effective and noncompliance way for space regain. But with the increased confidence on skeletal anchorage, maximum anchorage preparation was planned with miniscrew in recent years. In this article, we cited two clinical cases to introduce an intraoral noncompliance appliance for maxillary molar distalization. RAMDA (rapid molar distalizing appliance) assist with skeletal anchorage is our modified technique used in these cases. From superimposition, we found that average rate of distalization was 1-2 mm per month. However, distal tipping of molar and anterior anchorage loss were also noted when using miniscrew as indirect anchorage.

The etiology of Angle’s Class II malocclusion are: 1.maxillary protrusion, 2.mandibular retrusion, 3.combination of both. The therapeutic methods of Angle’s Class II malocclusion with mandibular retrusion by using the functional appliance will correct neuromuscular dysfunction, remodeling of the glenoid fossa and enhancement of condyle growth by anterior positioning of mandible. In this case report will present a patient of Angle’s Class II malocclusion with mandibular retrusion. By using multiple functional appliances during active growth period to improve mandible forward positioned and the maxilla-mandible relation is altered. Then, combined with fixed orthodontic treatment, the convex profile and malocclusion is improved. Esthetics …

Proper orthodontic treatment in adult patients with severe skeletal Class II discrepancy can be challenging. Recently, miniscrew implants have been used as a strategy to treat skeletal Class II patients. Objective: This report illustrates a skeletal Class II malocclusion management combining straight wire technique and miniscrew implant anchorage. Case report: The patient was a 21-years- old Indonesian female with Class II skeletal discrepancy, a retrognathic mandible, a high mandibular plane angle, and a mouth breathing habit due to a history of allergic rhinitis. Anchorage control is important in the sagittal and vertical directions. Miniscrew implants were placed in the …

Harnessing a patient’s growth to correct parasagittal discrepancies is an important part of Class II correction in orthodontic treatment; however, orthodontists rarely have the opportunity to choose when a patient is referred to them. Diagnostic records can assist the orthodontist in determining how much growth a patient has remaining. The purpose of this retrospective cephalometric study was to determine whether the amounts of in-treatment facial growth differ significantly by sex and by cervical vertebral maturation (CVM) stage. The sample consisted of 133 Class II division 1 patients from a single private practice office treated with a combination of a functional …
Cephalometric Evaluation Of Bionator Therapy In The Early Treatment Of Class Ii Malocclusions, Daniel C. Sawrie
Cephalometric Evaluation Of Bionator Therapy In The Early Treatment Of Class Ii Malocclusions, Daniel C. Sawrie
Theses and Dissertations (ETD)
Early or two-phase orthodontic treatment of Class II malocclusions is a debated topic in orthodontic circles primarily because the benefits of early intervention have not been consistently reproduced among researchers. The present study was a retrospective analysis of cephalograms from patients with Class II, division 1 malocclusions at the start of treatment. These were 50 consecutively treated youths who received phase 1 (early) treatment with a Bionator appliance and later treatment with full appliances (all treated by a single clinician). The comparison group consisted subjects treated in a single phase with fixed Edgewise appliances only. Importantly, subjects in the two …
Cephalometric Evaluation Of One-Phase And Two-Phase Treatment Alternatives In Matched Class Ii Subjects, Fredrick Jerome Burr
Cephalometric Evaluation Of One-Phase And Two-Phase Treatment Alternatives In Matched Class Ii Subjects, Fredrick Jerome Burr
Theses and Dissertations (ETD)
“Early” or two-phase orthodontic treatment of Class II malocclusions is a highly debated topic in the orthodontic literature. We report here on a retrospective cephalometric study of patients with Class II, division 1 malocclusions. One group consisted of 32 consecutively treated patients who received “early” treatment with a Fränkel II appliance followed by treatment with full fixed appliance. These subjects were “matched” by sex and cephalometric value, to a subject treated with standard edgewise appliances in a single phase. Matching criteria focused on the bony facial characteristics, notably ANB, NAP, Y Axis, AOBO, FMA, overjet, and overbite. The question was …
