Use of miniplates as a method for orthodontic anchorage: a case report
نویسندگان
چکیده
Introduction: Temporary anchorage devices (TADs) have been developed to be used as direct adjuncts in orthodontic treatment and have facilitated treatment of more complex orthodontic cases, including patients with dental impaction. Objectives: This clinical case reports the applicability of TADs in the orthodontic treatment of a patient with impacted mandibular second molars. Surgical and orthodontic procedures related to the use of miniplates were also discussed in this study. Conclusions: The use of temporary anchorage devices, such as miniplates, can be suggested as an alternative to treat patients with impacted mandibular second molars.

Maxillary protraction with miniplates providing skeletal anchorage in a growing Class III patient.
Maxillary protraction headgear has been used in the treatment of Class III malocclusion with maxillary deficiency. However, loss of dental anchorage has been reported with tooth-borne anchorage such as lingual arches and expansion devices. This side effect can be minimized with skeletal anchorage devices such as implants, onplants, mini-implants, and miniplates. The use of miniplates for maxill...

This case report presents the treatment of a patient with skeletal Cl II malocclusion and anterior open-bite who was treated with zygomatic miniplates through the intrusion of maxillary posterior teeth. A 16-year-old female patient with a chief complaint of anterior open-bite had a symmetric face, incompetent lips, convex profile, retrusive lower lip and chin. Intraoral examination showed that ...
متن کاملFiber- Reinforced Composite for Orthodontic Anchorage Technique
Introduction: In orthodontic treatment, adequate anchorage is necessary to move the intended teeth. In some cases, just anterior teeth are malaligned, while posterior occlusion is acceptable. Therefore, the posterior teeth could be integrated by fiber-reinforced composite (FRC) to provide a rigid anchorage. This method proved advantageous since brackets are bonded just to anter...

Background and purpose: Skeletal anchorage is a new aid for the correction of moderate anterior open bite. This study aimed at treating moderate anterior open bite using posterior intrusion via mini implants. In addition, a review of studies carried out on open bite correction using absolute anchorage was performed. Materials and methods: The following keywords were used: open bite, camouflag...
متن کاملExperience with orthodontic temporary anchorage devices
In orthodontics, anchorage is a prerequisite for the application of therapeutic forces and can limit their successful use. According to the intended treatment goals, desired tooth movements should, therefore, be maximized and undesirable effects minimized. But additional anchorage such as extraand intraoral forces are visible and hence compliance dependent and are associated with the risk of un...
