Introduction
All modern mechanics have a double scale of
ladder ascendant & descendant , ascending from
experiment to the invention of causes &
descending from causes to the invention of new
experiments
• Anchorage plays a very vital role in
orthodontics. Loss of anchorage can take place
during
• Aligning, leveling and retraction stages.

3. Reasons for anchor loss
during aligning
•Lower molars normally drift mesially to
occupy the lee-way space after shedding of
lower primary second molars which can be
restricted by timely placement of lingual
arch.
•Anchorage requirement in upper arch is s
re
greater compared to lower arch

during retraction

6. How to control anchorage
during leveling ?
• Using light continuous forces
• Maintain the direction of force
• Rein force anchorage
• Proper bracket positioning.

tipping of molars

13. APPLIANCE
DESIGN:
• Modular appliance is made up of 0.016
x0.0 22 rectangular SS / TMA wire
• Modular appliance consists of an omega
loop touching the mesial aspect of buccal
tube and there is an upward curve in the
mesial part of the canine bracket, which
ends in a hook on the upper or gingival
part.

com
14. •The gingival part of the hook is
helicoidally recurred with the end inward
to avoid erosion of the vestibular mucosa.
•Tip back bend of 45 degrees is given
distal to omega loop .
•The wire should be cinched distal to the
molar buccal tube
•The buccal segment should be contoured
to prevent tissue impingement.
www.indiandentalacademy.
com
16. •Class II elastics ( preferably blue
or green ) applying 100 – 150 gm
force are used from the hook mesial
to canine and to the lower molar
hook.
•The modular sectional arch blocks
the segment between the canine and
the upper first molar in one unit ,
which it moves in distal direction.

17. BIOMECHANICS
• Based on cantilever mechanism
Mechanics
of spring
elastics
www.indiandentalacademy.
com
18. •These mechanics can
effectively tip back an upper
molar and rotate the molar
mesial out.
•Distal end of omega loop acts
as a stop and applies the
tipping force on upper molar.
www.indiandentalacademy.
com
19. • A light class II elastic is
placed from lower arch
• Class –II elastic is effective ,
not only because of its distal
force but because a very large
moment is produced tipping
the molar distally.
www.indiandentalacademy.
com
20. • Class – II elastics can flare the lower
arch, increase the vertical and steepen
the occlusal plane.
• Hence elastics are used for a short period
of time.
• Because the molars tip back rapidly, only
a short period of class – II elastic wear
is required leading to negligible side
effects

39. Conclusion
If anchor loss is noticed
early and timely
intervention of modular
appliance is made, it saves
a lot of drudgery.
