350-450 gms/each side – 14hrs/day

Practical aspects

Good fitting bands

Inner bow – passive
Should not contact any teeth
Ant. Segment – between the lips
Expansion – distalization

Mandibular arch

Use of class III intermaxillary traction
with head gear


Mechanical aspect of anchorage
Sliding mechanics
Force is required for 2 purposes
Bone remodeling
Frictional resistance
Controlling and minimizing friction is an imp. Aspect
of anchorage control

Friction ???
Frictional force

Nature of surface at the interface (rough or smooth,
chemically reactive or passive, modified by
lubricants)
Independent of the apparent area of contact

Real contact occurs only at a limited number of small
spots: Asperities


Metal wire in a ceramic bracket

Stick slip phenomenon

2 other factors can affect the resistance to sliding
Interlocking of surface irregularities
Extent of plowing
In clinical practice friction is largely determined by
the shearing component


Surface quality of the wires
NiTi > βTi > SS

Roughness

There is no correlation between surface roughness
and coefficient of friction

β Ti has greatest frictional resistance

Surface quality of the wires
Changes in surface chemistry due to increased
Ti content
Cold weld effect


Possible solution to this problem

Alteration of the surface of Ti wires

Among all, SS/SS couple is most effective for sliding
followed by CoCr/SS, NiTi/SS, βTi/SS

Surface quality of the brackets
SS brackets
Ti brackets
Ceramic brackets
Ceramic brackets with metal slots
Composite brackets
Polycarbonate plastic brackets

Flexibility of arch wire and width of the bracket

Force that pulls the wire into the bracket
Self ligating brackets- reduced friction that allows
more effective sliding- better anchorage control

Magnitude of friction

Retraction springs
Closing loops

Conventional Begg
Differential force concept
1st premolar extraction
8 teeth extraction

Begg was applying the principles of differential forces

Conventional Begg
Storey and Smith (1952)
Statistical evidence confirmed the
results of Begg’s clinical
experience
Edgewise app and springs


Conventional Begg
Tooth with a greater root surface area needs
greater force to be moved

canine: molar = 3:8

Conventional Begg


Conventional Begg
Reason for different rates of movement of canines
Storey and Smith presented the concept of
undermining resorption
Sandstedt (1904)
Schwarz (1932)


Conventional Begg
Teeth subjected to very high forces

Resorption of tooth investing tissues

Teeth are loosened within the sockets

Conventional Begg
Use of differential forces
Reduction of anterior overbite
Use of anchor bends

Light wires
Heavy wires

Conventional Begg
 Strang (1954) – Treatment problems, their origin

and elimination
 Edgewise app
 Closing extraction space requires more force
 Use of head gears - recommended


Conventional Begg
Space closure

Premolars bypassed
Extra oral anchorage is not required

Conventional Begg
Means of preventing anchorage failure

Use of thin round steel wires
Anchor bends
Stationary anchorage
Premolars not bracketed
Light torquing forces in 3rd stage
Use of reverse torquing auxillaries

Refined Begg ( Dr. V P Jayade )
Differential force concept was misunderstood
Excessive retraction
Prevented in refined begg by applying efficient
brakes along with heavy differential forces

Tipping the posterior segment distally
Lower posterior segment


When teeth are tipped distally as they are in
anchorage preparation, osteoid tissue appears to be
laid down adjacent to the mesial surface of the tooth
being moved distally.”

- Kaare Reitan

Such conclusions do not make the necessity of
anchorage preparation obselete


Clinical orthodontist who routinely create excellent
facial changes are those who recognize the
importance of and prepare anchorage in their
practice


Concept
Upright the mesially inclined lower posterior segment
Terminal molar to be tipped distally
Angle formed between the class II elastic and long
axis of terminal molar

Mandible will be much more stable and will resist
forward displacement

After anchorage preparation, if movement does occur

Slow mesial bodily movement
Anchorage not prepared
Uprooting and elevation of the molars

Tweed classified anchorage preparation
First degree
Second degree
Third degree


First degree / minimal anchorage preparation
ANB 0º- 4º, facial esthetics are good
Discrepancy < 10 mm
Mandibular terminal molars must be uprighted
Direction of intermaxillary elastic pull
should not exceed 90º

Second degree
ANB exceeds 4.5

Class II

Mandibular second molars should always be banded
Must be tipped distally so that their distal marginal
ridges are at gum level
Direction of pull of intermaxillary elastics should
always be > 90º

Third Degree or Total Anchorage Preparation
ANB does not exceed 5º
Discrepancy – 14 -20 mm
All posterior teeth (second premolar to terminal molars)
are tipped distally
Distal marginal ridges of terminal molars are below
gum level

Severe cases – anchorage prepared in both the arches
How to tip lower posterior segment ???

Sliding jig



Lower anchorage preparation completed
Lower canines and incisors retracted
Upper extractions
Class II elastics – distal tipping of upper
posterior segment

Defined as controlled forces which place the teeth
in most harmonious relation with their
environment



Favorable

Unfavorable

Level anchorage system
Terrell L. Root
Aim – quantify the anchorage requirement
018 edgewise slot
Mandibular molars – 2 choices of distal crown tip


Anchorage – Resistance to movement
Distance to move
Anchorage savers
Those orthodontic adjunctive procedures that reduce
the amount of tooth anchorage necessary to correct
the malocclusion


High pull headgear to maxillary 1st molars or J hook
headgear to anteriors: reduction in ANB by 1 degree
every 6 months
Palatal bar: decreases vertical descent due to tongue
pressure.
Delaying upper first premolar extraction by one year:
reduces mandibular anchorage space by 1mm
Class III elastics worn 24 hrs: flatten the curve of
Spee and upright buccal segments at the rate of
1mm / month

Major change


Head gears / Retractors
Retractors’ ( Dr. Fred Schudy)
Cervical, combination or high pull depending on
growth pattern and control needed


Other intra oral appliances to control anchorage:

Anchorage control in MBT
2nd principle of orthodontic anchorage
Anchorage loss – maximum in the first stage
Def – Tooth movement needed to achieve passive
engagement of steel 19 x 25 wire of suitable arch
form into a correctly placed 022 preadjusted bracket
system


Major reason for anchorage loss ???
Mesial tip built into the bracket system
Anchorage control
The maneuvers used to restrict undesirable changes
during the opening phase of treatment, so that
leveling and aligning is achieved without key
features of the malocclusion becoming worse.’

1st step in anchorage control

Recognize the anchorage needs of the case

Diagnosis and treatment planning stage


Eg – class II div 1
Goal is set for incisor position - PIP

Class III

Mistakes in tooth leveling and aligning during
early years

Roller coaster effect


Roller coaster effect has been eliminated from the
present day practice
Reduced tip in bracket system
Light arch wire forces
Use of lacebacks instead of elastic forces


Lacebacks for A/P canine control

Restrict canine crown from tipping forward

Lacebacks for A/P canine control
Robinson – 57 PM extn cases


Restrict canine crown from tipping forward
Distalizing canines without causing unwanted
tipping


Continued till rectangular SS wire stage
Discontinued if space appears betn lateral &
canine


Bendbacks for A/P incisor control


Bendbacks for A/P incisor control

Bend is placed 1-2 mm
distal to molar tube

A/P anchorage control of
lower molars – the lingual arch

Class III elastics & headgear

A/P anchorage support & control for upper molars –
 The upper molars move mesially more easily
than lower molars
 Upp ant segment has larger teeth than low ant
 Upp ant brackets have more tip built
 Upp incisors require more torque control &
bodily movement
 More Class II type malocclusions than Class III

A/P anchorage support & control for upper molars –

Head gears

TPA

Vertical anchorage control of incisors
