fabrication and evaluation of a noncompliant molar distalizing appliance: bonded molar distalizer
نویسندگان
چکیده
objective: attempts to treat class ii malocclusions without extraction in non-compliant patients have led to utilization of intraoral molar distalizing appliances. the purpose of this study was to investigate dental and skeletal effects of bonded molar distalizer (bmd) which is a simple molar distalizing appliance. materials and methods: sixteen patients (12 girls, four boys) with bilateral half-cusp class ii molar relationship, erupted permanent second molars and normal or vertical growth pattern were selected for bilateral distalization of maxillary molars via bmd. the screws were activated every other day, alternately. lateral cephalograms and study models were obtained before treatment and after 11 weeks activation of the appliance. results: significant amounts of molar distalization, molar distal tipping and anchorage loss were observed. the mean maxillary first molar distal movement was 1.22±0.936 mm with a distal tipping of 2.97±3.74 degrees in 11 weeks. the rate of distal movement was 0.48 mm per month. reciprocal mesial movement of the first premolars was 2.26±1.12 mm with a mesial tipping of 4.25±3.12 degrees. maxillary incisors moved 3.55±1.46 mm and tipped 9.87±5.03 degrees mesially. lower anterior face height (lafh) decreased 1.28±1.36 mm. conclusion: bmd is appropriate for distalizing maxillary molars, especially in patients with critical lafh, although significant amounts of anchorage loss occur using this appliance.

متن کاملThe K-loop molar distalizing appliance.
With the recent trend toward more non extraction treatment, several appliances have been advocated to distalize molars in the upper arch. Certain principles, as outlined by Burstone, must be borne in mind when designing such an appliance:
متن کاملA new approach in maxillary molar distalization: intraoral bodily molar distalizer.
The objectives of our study were to achieve bodily molar distalization, avoid distal tipping of molars, eliminate the need for patient cooperation (no headgear, no elastics, and no esthetic and social concern), and finally to minimize the treatment period and maximize the treatment efficiency. The study was carried out on 5 males and 10 females, a total of 15 patients. Mean age for the study gr...
متن کاملComparative evaluation of molar distalization therapy with erupted second molar: Segmented versus Quad Pendulum appliance
BACKGROUND There are controversial opinions about the effect of erupted second molars on distalization of the first molars. Most of the distalizing devices are anchored on the first molars, without including second molars; so, differences between sequentially distalize maxillary molars (second molar followed by the first molar) or distalize second and first molars together are not clear. The ai...
متن کاملEvaluation of the Jones jig appliance for distal molar movement.
The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of the Jones jig appliance on distal movement of maxillary molars and reciprocal effects on premolars and maxillary incisors. Cephalometric radiographs before and after orthodontic treatment of 72 consecutively treated patients, 46 females and 26 males, were measured to define treatment changes attributed to the Jones jig. Comparative measu...
