Molar Intrusion Techniques in Orthodontics: A Review
نویسنده
چکیده
Molar intrusion has always been a complex and difficult treatment modality. It can be approached for treating open bite patients or over erupted molar tooth/teeth. Through the decades, various treatment strategies have been developed to intrude molar teeth, ranging from non-surgical to surgical approaches, and utilizing various appliances, some which rely on patient compliance. The aim of this article is to compile and summarize the existing molar intrusive techniques and appliances with respect to their advantages and disadvantages, and their possible clinical effectiveness.

Molar Uprighting Using Mini-Screws after Distalization by the Pendulum Appliance: A Case Report
A 16-year-old Class II female patient was treated without tooth extraction. The upper first molars were distalized by the Pendulum appliance. After six months, the molars tipped significantly to the distal. To correct this side effect, we decided to upright the molars using skeletal anchorage. On each side, a mini-screw was inserted between first and second premolars in the buccal cortical plat...
متن کاملIntrusion of supra-erupted molars using miniscrews: clinical success and root resorption.
INTRODUCTION Conventional orthodontic techniques do not intrude posterior teeth effectively, and almost all methods result in anterior extrusion rather than posterior intrusion. New absolute anchorages (miniscrews and miniplates) are said to make posterior tooth intrusion possible. The aim of this study was to evaluate the clinical success of a new method for molar intrusion with miniscrews and...
متن کاملIntrusion method for a single overerupted maxillary molar using only palatal mini-implants and partial fixed appliances.
Mandibular first molars are among the most frequently missing teeth in the adult dentition. As a result, the maxillary first molars are frequently overerupted. Conventional approaches to correct this undesirable molar position with skeletal anchorage usually include both buccal and palatal orthodontic mini-implants. Because palatal mini-implants have greater success rates than buccal ones, this...

Introduction: The purpose of this preliminary study was to evaluate the periodontal condition of intruded molars in various phases of treatments. Methods: 30 patients with at least one overerupted upper first molar were selected. Upper molar bands with brackets were cemented. Two miniscrews were placed in the mesiopalatal and mesiobuccal aspect of the aforementioned teeth. A titanium molybdenum...
