Simple and Efficient Technique for Correction of Unilateral Scissor Bite Using Straight Wire

Early correction of unilateral scissor bite using transforce appliance and modified twin block appliance

Early treatment of scissor bite has been advocated mainly to prevent function jaw shift that can eventually lead to permanent skeletal asymmetry and temporomandibular joint pathosis. Although unilateral scissor bite is more common, most of the times, bilateral mandibular expansion is indicated. Lingual transforce appliance can be useful in such cases. This article presents a patient with unilat...

Nonsurgical correction of a severe anterior deep overbite accompanied by a gummy smile and posterior scissor bite using a miniscrew-assisted straight-wire technique in an adult high-angle case

In the present report, we describe the successful use of miniscrews to achieve vertical control in combination with the conventional sliding MBT™ straight-wire technique for the treatment of a 26-year-old Chinese woman with a very high mandibular plane angle, deep overbite, retrognathic mandible with backward rotation, prognathic maxilla, and gummy smile. The patient exhibited skeletal Class II...

A new lingual straight-wire technique.

mushroom-arch technique introduced by Fujita in the 1970s,1,2 Takemoto and Scuzzo developed the lingual straight-wire (LSW) technique in 1995.3,4 Mushroom archwires typically require vertical steps and insets between the canines and first premolars, necessitating complicated wire bends that can affect treatment outcomes. The LSW method eliminated this problem, but the thickness of the lingual b...
