Angle Class II, subdivision, with agenesis of mandibular second molars and extrusion of maxillary second molars *
نویسنده
چکیده
This clinical case reports the treatment of an Angle Class II malocclusion in a young woman with a balanced face affected by agenesis of second and third mandibular molars and subsequent extrusion of second maxillary molars. The atypical and peculiar occlusal anomaly led to individualized treatment proposed in order to normalize dental malpositions, with subsequent rehabilitation of edentulous areas by means of a multidisciplinary approach. This case was presented to the Brazilian Board of Orthodontics and Dentofacial Orthopedics (BBO) in partial fulfillment of the requirements for obtaining the title of certified by the BBO.

Evaluation of the role of unilateral and bilateral tooth extraction treatment on maxillary arch symmetry in Class II subdivision cases
Background and Aim: Unilateral extractions have been proposed as potential treatment options to correct Class II subdivision malocclusion, suggesting that most side effects associated with asymmetrical mechanics can be avoided, however the post-treatment arch form may not be symmetrical. Therefore, the aim of this study was to determine the post-treatment effects of unilateral premolar extrac...
متن کاملAssociations between Impaction Depth of the Mandibular Third Molar and Pathological Conditions
Introdouction: Impacted and partially erupted third molars can cause various symptoms and pathologies. The aim of this study was to determine the association between commonly observed pathological conditions and the impaction depth of lower third molar teeth. Materials and methods: In this retrospective study, 370 panoramic radiographs including 724 lower third molars were evaluated to asses...
متن کاملBilateral impactions of mandibular first, second, and third molars.
PATIEN'l' J. Z., a white boy 13 years 9 months of age, had a Class II, Division 1 malocclusion. This diagnosis could be determined only in the canine area, since no mandibular molars were present on either the right or the left side. The maxillary arch was normal in width and in protraction. The maxillary right second premolar was blocked out lingually and rotated mesially, and the maxillary le...
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...

OBJECTIVE To quantify the treatment effects of interradicular miniscrew anchorage and to confirm the validity of the clinical usage of interradicular miniscrews in the distal movement of maxillary molars in nonextraction treatment. MATERIALS AND METHODS Twenty-four maxillary molars were moved to the distal using miniscrews placed in the interradicular space between the second premolar and the...
