Treatment and retention of a mandibular arch telescoped within the maxillary arch: case report.
نویسنده
چکیده
A patient in the early mixed dentition was experiencing "difficulty in eating." The right mandibular posterior teeth were telescoped within the maxillary arch. The mandibular midline deviated to the left of the maxillary midline. With the midlines aligned, posterior occlusion was minimal. By activating a lingual arch, the mandibular arch width was increased to establish a posterior occlusion. Also, the lingual arch was used as a retainer. The posterior occlusion remained stable throughout the mixed dentition. An unexpected second phase of treatment was indicated in the permanent dentition because the maxillary right first and second premolars and the maxillary right second molar were completely buccal to the mandibular teeth. Successful treatment was accomplished in spite of broken appliances and noncompliance.

Retention, stability and support are the basic principles on which the success of a complete denture relies on. The skill lies in applying these principles efficiently in critical situations. Residual ridge resorption occurs at a three times faster rate in mandibular arch than in the maxillary arch. The severely resorbed maxillary and mandibular edentulous arches that are narrow and constricted...

The stability of rapid maxillary expansion (RME) was studied in 20 patients. Study models were evaluated immediately prior to treatment, at the end of treatment, and at least 4 years post-treatment with regards to maxillary and mandibular intermolar widths, intercanine widths, arch perimeters, and irregularity indices. The mean maxillary intermolar width increased by 3.7 mm during treatment, an...

متن کاملArch dimensional changes following orthodontic treatment with extraction of four first premolars
BACKGROUND AND AIM: Tooth extraction as a part of orthodontic treatment plan to create space for leveling and aligning teeth or causing tooth movement leads to changes in arch width and length. The outcome of these changes is important for the clinicians and affects the treatment and retention plans. Despite some previous studies, data in this regard are still scarce and further investigation i...
