The Begg light-wire appliance remains unique in the history of orthodontic innovation. Whereas many current self-ligating bracket appliances purport to be low friction or friction free, it is the Begg appliance that best exemplifies low friction, free sliding mechanics.
By creating only a single point of contact between the bracket and the arch-wire Dr Begg was able to greatly decrease resistance to sliding, both by reducing friction between the bracket and the arch-wire and virtually eliminating the binding of the arch-wire in the bracket slot, as is seen in all horizontal slot brackets.
Begg’s bracket design allowed teeth to freely tip mesially and distally as well as lingually and labially. This often gave teeth the appearance of being over tipped during treatment and required considerable diligence by Begg practitioners to keep tooth movement under control.
This freedom of tooth movement allowed unprecedented correction of large overbites and overjets to an edge-to-edge position and rapid closure of extraction spaces by initially tipping the adjacent teeth into the extraction site and uprighting the teeth afterwards.
Individual tooth root correction was managed by the use of fine springs that were designed, and often individually crafted to upright, torque and rotate teeth into their correct positions once the position of tooth crowns had been established.
One key advantage of the appliance set up was the use of light elastic forces for the correction of anterior overbites and overjets. All anchorage could be established intra-orally without headgear, without the need for ancillary appliances such as trans-palatal arches, or needing to set up molar anchorage prior to treatment, as Dr Tweed advocated. Of equal importance was that with judicious use of light elastic forces and the astute placement of tooth moving auxiliaries, such as torqueing auxiliaries and uprighting springs, differential anchorage could be created. This enabled greater control of tooth movement of individual teeth or groups of teeth so they could be moved predictably to a greater or lesser extent to meet treatment requirements.
The TipEdge appliance does not having the same low resistance to sliding as seen with the Begg appliance. However, it retains the mechanical flexibility and light intraoral forces needed to create intraoral anchorage and differential tooth movement. Importantly, the TipEdge appliance has the great advantage of being self-limiting. Once a tooth has been uprighted or torqued sufficiently it can be held in place. This allows final tooth corrections to be completed in a sequential manner rather than simultaneously, as is required with Begg appliance treatment.
The TipEdge bracket design also overcame another shortcoming of Begg treatment. With the advent of ceramic aesthetic appliances in the 1980’s, the Begg appliance had not been satisfactorily adapted to provide patients with a reliable aesthetic bracket solution.
In 2002 the Tip Edge p+

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

2. CONTENTS
→ Introduction
→ Convention begg - drawbacks
→ Unaltered essential of Begg
→ Advantages and disadvantages of Begg treatment
→ Conventional vs Refined
→ Conceptual changes
→ Changes in hardware
3. → Stage wise modifications
→ Stage I
→ Stage II
→ Pre stage III
→ Stage III
4. Introduction
→ The present Begg practice differs considerably from the traditional.
→ Begg practice as undergone many changes over the time which have
enhanced its efficiency and made it capable of meeting the contemporary
treatment objectives.
→ It must be noted that the basic tenants of Begg mechanotheropy have largely
remained unaltered because they are relevant for ever.
5. What is Conventional Begg, Modified Begg and Refined Begg?
The Refined Begg is the current Begg practice using the
same Begg brackets, which is significantly deviated from
the conventional Begg.
The term Modified Begg is applied to the treatment which
follows the Begg principles to a large extent, but which uses
brackets other than the ribbon arch bracket.
Conventional Begg is the Begg treatment philosophy as
Advocated by R P BEGG and P KESLING.
6. The changes introduced by various workers are on account of the following
reasons:
1. Changes in the treatment philosophy : Not all Begg practitioners accept the
attritional occlusion concept today as the basis for treatment planning.
Attempts are being made to reconcile the Begg treatment with the Andrew’s
six keys to normal occlusion.
2. Changes in the treatment approach: Advantages of mixed dentition treatment
are realized. Profile consideration has assured greater importance reducing
the number of extraction cases and seeking extraction choices other than the
first bicuspids in many cases.
7. Conventional Begg treatment - Drawbacks
Difficulty in obtaining proper finishing and detailing of the
cases.
Difficulty in obtaining the posterior root torque.
Difficulty in achieving true intrusion of upper incisors.
Difficulty in maintaining rotational control.
No safe check on crown tipping and uprighting movements.
8. Essentials of Begg - Unaltered
Use of light orthodontic forces
1
Crown tipping followed by root
movement
2
Use of brackets permitting free tipping
movements in the initial stages
3
Use of differential force for movements of
different group of teeth
4
9. A definite sequence of treatment stages,
treatment is divided into three clear cut
stages.
5
Use of light intraoral elastics
6
En mass movement of anterior and
posterior teeth
7
Overcorrection of all displacements.
8
Use of round high tensile wires.
9
10. CONVENTIONAL V/S REFINED BEGG
→ Conceptual changes
→ Changes in the hardware
→ Stage wise modifications
11. CONCEPTUAL CHANGE
→ Theory of attritional occlusion and differential force concept
→ Treatment objectives
→ Treatment planning
→ Biomechanics
→ Archform
12. 1. THEORETICAL FOUNDATION
→ Theory of attritional occlusion: Questioned by Corrucini. Over emphasis on
extraction in the anticipation of crowding.
→ Concept of differential forces: It is now known that when heavy forces are used
for protracting the posteriors & the anteriors would remain stationary until the
hyalinised tissue is eliminated. Then they would move posteriorly. Now
prevented by using sufficient brakes.
13. 2. TREATMENT OBJECTIVES
→ For static occlusion: Andrew’s 6 keys.
→ Functional occlusion: Synchronization of CO & CR. Elimination of hanging
palatal cusps of the upper posterior teeth, which may cause functional
disturbances. Cuspid protected occlusion. Incisor guidance.
14. 3. DIAGNOSIS
Conventional - simple
→ LI to A-pog line, ANB & FMA - Dental and skeletal relationship
→ Facial profile, pattern and growth potential - not given enough importance
Present day - broad based
→ Dental, skeletal, soft tissue and VTO - commonly used
15. 4. TREATMENT PLANNING
COOKBOOK APPROACH DISCARDED
→ Benefits of treatment during mixed dentition is recognized.
→ Direct & modulate growth by using functional or orthopedic appliances.
→ Conversion of borderline cases in non extraction. ”When in doubt, extract”
discarded.
→ Leeway space is used to resolve mild crowding. Interproximal reduction.
→ Upper molar distalization.
→ Asymmetric extractions.
16. 5. BIOMECHANICS
→ Controlled tipping in 1st two stages followed by root uprighting.
→ Mollenhauer: Root control from the very 1st stage.
→ MAA - Aligns teeth, exerts ultra light torquing & uprighting forces on the anterior
teeth.
→ Combines 1st & 3rd stage of begg.3rd stage is shorter.
→ Prevents undesirable uncontrolled tipping.
→ Provides labial & lingual root torque.
17. 6. ARCHFORM
Present day Begg practice:
→ Benefits of maintaining the lower arch form
→ Maintaining and improving upper arch form
→ Co-ordination of U & L archwires - checked at every stage
19. BUILT IN ADJUSTMENTS
Incisor brackets
→ Anti – rotational adjustments
→ Used in first stage
→ Prepared by welding a piece of 0.010 ligature wire on the mesial or the
distal edge of the bracket base mesh
→ Ready made brackets also available
20. BUILT IN TORQUE
→ Introduced by kameda.
→ Obtained by raising the incisal or gingival edge of the bracket base
away from the tooth surface.
→ Brackets are commercially available.
→ When rectangular wire is used in conjunction with these brackets
labial or lingual torque is produced.
21. MOLAR TUBES
Upper molar tubes - introduced by swain.
→ Fixed perpendicular to the mesial aspect of upper
molar bands – results 10degree disto lingual rotation
offset
Lower molar tube
→ A lesser offset of approximately 5degrees disto
lingual rotation given
22. PLACEMENT OF ATTACHMENTS
A) Height
→ Upper and lower canine brackets are placed more incisally
→ Upper incisor brackets more incisally
→ Lower incisor brackets placed more gingivally
→ Upper and lower premolar brackets are occlusally placed
→ Upper molar tubes placed slightly occlusally
23. B) Mesio distal location
→ Brackets – incisor brackets are kept at the mesio distal center of the crown
→ In a rotated canine or premolar brackets are kept slightly off centre so thet they
are 1 mm closer to the proximal surface
24. C) Molar tubes
→ Mesial end of the molar tube is placed at the centre of the mesio buccal
cusp of the molar
→ All tubes are aligned parellel to a line joining the tips of the concerned
molar
D) Palatal brackets
→ Placed on the palatal surface of upper incisors when palatal elastics
from a tpa are used
25. ARCH WIRES
→ Initial aligning phase – small diameter Australian wires, NITI or braided SS
wires – used as sectional wires along with base arch wire
→ Finishing stage – rectangular SS wires or alpha titanium wires – can be used in
second stage as combination wires for braking mechanics
26. MOLAR STOPS
→ Usually placed in lower arch wire
→ Forward movement of lower molars can be avoided
27. ARCH WIRE ENDS
→ The amount of wire protruding from the distal end of molar tubes indicate
the amount of saggital change
→ Only during 3rd stage the wires are cinched
28. PINS USED IN REFINED BEGG
→ First stage pins: full freedom for sliding of teeth
→ Third stage pins: restricts the freedom of sliding and tipping
→ High hat pins: permit freedom for sliding and tipping & provides additional point
of attachment
29. PINS USED IN REFINED BEGG
→ Hook pins: used when more more than one wire is to be engaged in the slot
→ ‘T’ pins: used as brakes in 2nd stage or in finishing stage when corrected
angulations of teeth are to be maintained
30. → The entire treatment is organized into Three Distinct Stages which facilitated
an orderly sequence of various corrections, in the efficient conduct of treatment
Objectives of stage-I
- Alignment - Correction of abnormal overbite
- Correction of overjet - Elimination of crossbite
- Correction of arch form - Matching of midlines
- Attaining Class I molar and canine relation
Stage I: Substage IA & Substage IB
31. SUB STAGE I-A
OBJECTIVES:
→ To create space for correcting crowding or to close excess spacing if already
present
→ Alignment of anterior teeth by correcting labiolingual displacements and or
rotations or crossbites
→ To improve upper incisor inclination to within +100 of normal
32. → Rotations and buccolingual positions of upper molars are corrected
→ Upper arch form is broadened if narrow permit mandibular advancement for
correcting class II relationship
→ Duration: 1- 6 months
→ Aim – to shift to 0.018 P/P+ arch wire as soon as possible
33. SUB STAGE I-B
OBJECTIVES:
→ Bite opening
Inc. incisor intrusion Dec. molar extrusion
→ Retraction of the upper anterior teeth to eliminate the overjet
This is done maintaining a good control over the root positions of all
anterior teeth, which is a significant deviation from the conventional Begg, done
by:
→ Employing mechanics for controlled tipping of the upper incisors during their
retraction
34. → Preventing uncontrolled tipping of the lower incisors during bite opening.
→ Applying root control during correction of extreme lingual or labial positions
of some of the anteriors, such as the instanding incisors or buccally placed
canines.
→ Control of mandibular plane angle
→ Matching upper and lower midlines
→ Correcting inter arch relationship to class I
→ Duration: 4-6 months
→ Entire first stage: 6-10 months
37. MULTI LOOPED ARCH WIRE
Present arch wires –
0.016 or 0.014 round SS as base arch
wire
NITI and multi stranded wires (singly or
in combination)
38. SELECTION OF ARCH WIRES
→ Arch wire strength
→ Amount of wire deflection
→ Amount of rotation correction
→ 0.016” round NITI along with 0.014” round SS for de-crowding
39. IMPROVING THE INCLINATION OF UPPER INCISORS
→ Excessively proclined upper incisors are retracted to some extent by using
Class II elastics, in conjunction with mild / moderate anchor bends
→ Retroclined incisors are allowed to upright under the effect of bite opening
bends, by avoiding Class II elastics
→ When the retroclined incisors need to be actively proclined, loops against molar
tubes can be used
40. CLOSING ANTERIOR SPACES
→ 0.016 round SS used
→ Cuspid circles are kept 2mm mesial to the
canine bracket
→ Elastic cuspid ties used
41. MOLAR POSITION CORRECTION
ROTATED MOLARS
→ Toe in or toe out bends placed in a 0.016 SS
wire
→ Double back bends along with oval tube
applies a lingual crown or buccal root torque
42. ARCH WIRE CORRECTIONS
Unless when the upper arch is excessively narrow, the arch form in most of
Class II cases can be broadened in the canine-premolar area by shaping the
SS 0.016" archwire
If the bite is to be simultaneously opened by incisor intrusion - premolars are
bypassed by having bayonet bends in the arch wire between the canines and
first premolar
43. DURATION
→ Substage I-A : from 1-6 months depending upon severity of initial malpositions
→ The aim should be to complete it quickly and go over to the 0.016" and 0.018"
P/P+ archwire as early as possible to enter substage I-B.
44. SUB STAGE I (B)
→ Arch wires used – 0.018 premium plus or premium wires
→ Elastics – class II light or ultra light
45. OBJECTIVES OF SUB STAGE I B
→ Bite opening
→ Elimination of overjet
→ Controlling mandibular plane angle
→ Correcting midline discrepancy
→ Correcting interarch relationships to class 1
46. LOCATION OF BITE OPENING BENDS
POWER ARM METHOD
→ Dr. Jyothindra kumar
→ 0.018x0.025” are bent in the form of hook &
soldered
→ Elastics placed from power arm-cuspid circle
47. GABLE BEND
→ It is placed distal to canine to maintain the
bite opening
→ It causes relative extrusion of canines and
more intrusion of laterals and centrals
48. HOCEVAR MODIFICATIONS
A bend is made on either side of canines
It causes intrusion of centrals but both
laterals and canines are extruded
49. BITE OPENING CURVE
In this bite opening curve canines are
extruded, premolars are also extruded if
engaged.
The laterals and centrals experience
progressively more intrusive effect
50. MILD GINGIVAL CURVE (SWAIN)
→ This is incorporated in the anterior section starting from the mesial of one
cuspid circle to the corresponding point on the other.
→ This should lift the arch wire at the mid point by about 3 mm over the brackets
51. VERTICAL STEP UP BENDS
→ 4 – 5 mm height
→ 2- 3 mm mesial to molar tube
→ This results in uniform intrusion of all
six upper anterior teeth
→ This bend tips the anchor molars
distally to a great extent, this can be
avoided by use of distal vertical
elastics
52. PALATAL ELASTICS
→ By varying the amount of labially acting
intrusive force and palatally acting
elastic force the direction and
magnitude of the resultant force can be
controlled, so that it passes close to the
teeth
53. ELIMINATION OF OVERJET MAINTAINING CONTROL OVER
ROOT POSITION OF ANTERIOR TEETH
OVERJET REDUCTION
→ Conventional begg - edge to edge relation resulted from Uncontrolled tipping
of upper anteriors.
→ Refined begg – controlled tipping
54. UNCONTROLLED TIPPING OF LOWER INCISORS
Prevented by –
→ Brackets are bonded gingivally
→ ‘MAA’ with labial root torque is used – stage 1
→ Lower arch wires are bent distal to molar tubes (Hocever)
55. MOLLENHAUER’S ALIGNING AUXILLIARY (MAA)
→ MOLLENHAUER – 1984
REQUIREMENTS OF MAA:
1. It must generate very light forces 0.009 size.
2. It must be able to resist deformation (supreme grade wire)
3. The base wire should resist vertical and transverse reactive forces of MAA
56. ADVANTAGES
Intrusion and simultaneous retraction of anterior teeth.
Rapid bodily alignment of anterior teeth.
Short stage III due to controlled tipping.
Reciprocability of torquing forces on the in standing laterals or palatally placed
canine which help in periodontal support.
Posibility of growing cortical bone at the A and B points.
58. ACTION OF MAA ON UPPER AND LOWER INCISORS
→ In 1st stage lower incisors
experience only a moment from
intrusive force, which flares crown
and ligualize the roots, this can be
prevented by using MAA with labial
root torque.
→ In upper incisors the force of MAA
and intrusive force are opp to class
II elastics, so depending on the
ratio of magnitude of both couples
controlled tipping takes place.
59. VARIOUS APPLICATIONS OF MAA
→ Labial root torque on the lower incisors
→ By bending more positive torque into MAA it can be used after stage I as
braking mechanics
→ For controlling mesio distal root position (MAA tip)
60. MODIFICATIONS OF MAA
Design for labial root torque
On all anterior teeth
MAA design for lingual root torque
Base wire is engaged first,
then the maa is engaged piggy back
61. Reciprocal root torque
Box meant for labial root torque rides
over the main wire(cross over bend)
Rectangular braided NITI instead of MAA
0.017” x 0.025” braided rectangular NiTI
62. OTHER BOXED AUXILLIARIES
Two boxes on the upper central
incisors for lingual root torque
Two boxes on the upper laterals for
labial root torque
63. CORRECTING OF THE MIDLINE DISCREPANCY
→ Some amount of midline correction would have occurred during alignment
phase. Thereafter, the upper midline correction is done using slightly uneven
Cl. II elastic force on the two sides, till it gets corrected.
→ If both midlines are shifted in opposite direction, a midline diagonal elastic is
used along with Cl. II elastic. Base wire for both the above
64. ELASTICS IN STAGE 1
Light/ultra light class 2
elastics
Palatal & power arm
elastics
Lower class 1 elastics –
crowding
Midline elastics
65. STAGE 2-REFINED BEGG
→ It may appear to be the easiest.
→ The corrections involved in stage II are quite straightforward.
66. OBJECTIVES
Maintain all corrections
achieved in stage 1
Close all extraction spaces
Controlled tipping of incisors
Cross bites & rotation
correction of 2nd premolars
Prevent excess tipping during
posterior protraction
67. ARCH WIRES
→ 0.018”premium / premium plus or 0.020
premium SS wires
→ If stage I correction involved like extreme
deep bite or severe rotations – 0.020”
→ 1st molar xn case – 0.018” with double
back
68. COMMONLY USED BRAKES
Braking springs : these are passive uprighting springs made
in 0.018" wire arch which almost fill the bracket channel.
Angulated T-pins : these pins maintain the tipping already
brought but prevent further tipping.
71. COMBINATION
WIRES
→ Made either of SS or alpha titanium alloy
→ The anterior segment is 0.022” x 0.018” (ribbon
mode) and the posterior segment is 0.018”
round cross section
→ Small amount of lingual root torque is given in
the anterior segment
→ 2/4 spur or MAA can be used as a braking
mechanics along with strong base arch wire
72. ELASTICS
→ Upper and lower class I elastics
→ Class II elastics – to hold the corrected molar relation
Strength :
→ Light (yellow) class I or II – anterior retraction
→ Stronger (green) class I – posterior protraction
→ Very heavy (blue-red) – in low mandible plane angle
73. PINS
→ Hook pins are used when anterior retraction is attempted in a controlled
manner using the MAA along with a base wire.
→ While these pins permit full freedom for lingual tipping of incisors, they limit the
distal tipping of canines.
→ When only base wires are engaged in the bracket slots without any other
auxiliary, stage III pins are used to hold the wires securely in bracket slots.
74. PRE STAGE III
→ Most of the cases require the pre stage III adjustments before going from stage
II to stage III.
→ This is so because the premolars are usually not engaged in the arch wire till
the extraction spaces are completely or almost completely closed.
75. → Hence the premolars are at a different vertical level (they are most gingivally
placed) than the molars at the end of stage II.
→ Also, engagement of archwire in the premolar bracket and the molar tube
requires a horizontal offset between the two, in order to compensate for the
greater buccal bulge due to bigger dimension of molar.
76. PRE STAGE III
0.016” arch Wire can be used for one visit for wire
engagement in premolar bracket
Gable bend is placed distal to the canine and
anchor bend is eliminated
77. STAGE III
OBJECTIVES
Maintain the corrections achieved up
to stage I and II
To achieve desired root position
To monitor the saggital and vertical
anchorage
To correct the position of second
molars when required
To monitor the inclinations of
posterior teeth especially molars
78. Mechanics of stage III
→ The torquing auxiliary for the labio-lingual root movements and the uprighting
springs for mesiodistal root movement generate reciprocal reaction in all the
three planes of space which when not properly controlled, result in complication
79. HOW TO OVERCOME III STAGE PROBLEMS
A) problem of root movements
Can be minimized by:
1. Carefully planning the extraction decision
2. By using efficient brakes
3. By using improved mechanics in first two stages
80. B) use of heavy wires(0.020” premium)
C) lighter auxilliaries and uprighting springs(0.012” wire)
D) light class ii elastics
E) reinforcement of anchorage
81. ARCH WIRES
IN STAGE III
0.020” premium wires are used
Cuspid circles tightly touching the
cuspid bracket (Raleigh williams)
The posterior segment are kept
gingivally in relation to the anterior
82. STAGE III ARCH WIRES
→ Mild toe in placed in the upper molar segment.
→ Degree of anchor bend and gable bend are
decided according to over bite.
→ The wire ends are annealed and tightly
cinched.
83. Elastics in stage III:
→ Light class II (TP yellow) – maintaining the inter arch relationship
→ Blue or red elastics to prevent tipping of upper and lower molars
86. Reverse torquing auxilliary (Franciskus tan-1987)
1.It is used for labial root movement of palatally
impacted canine.
2.It is made of 0.012 p+ wire with 0.018 base wire.
3.It is inserted in molar tube distally and rotated 90
degree for activation.
4.The molars are stabilised with TPA.
87. BUCCAL ROOT TORQUE
ON THE MOLARS
→ When upper molar crowns roll
buccally because of a lack of
control during 3rd stage, their
roots must be torqued bucally to
lift their palatally hanging cusps.
88. UPRIGHTING SPRINGS
→ Introduced in early 60’s
→ Used to correct the mesio distal angle of roots during the III stage
→ Earlier 0.014” SS wire was used
89. MINI SPRINGS(MOLLENHAUER)
→ 0.009” S.S SUPREME WIRE USED
ADVANTAGES:
→ Produces a mild continous force
→ Less taxation of anchorage
→ Ease in maintaining oral hygiene
→ Better esthetics
90. FINISHING AND DETAILING
→ Contemporary orthodontic treatment goals lay a great deal of emphasis on
proper finishing at the end of orthodontic treatment.
→ Popularity of Begg appliance came from obtaining precision finishing with the
Begg appliance was difficult whereas the preadjusted edgewise appliance have
the inherent capability of precision finishing and giving a pleasing look to the
teeth.
91. FINISHING AND DETAILING
OBJECTIVES:-
INTRA ARCH OBJECTIVES:
→ Good inter dental contacts
→ Rotations are over corrected
→ Complete space closure
→ Proper vertical levelling of all teeth
92. → Proper tip and torque of all teeth
→ Proper arch form
→ Maintain the lower inter canine dimension
INTER ARCH OBJECTIVES:
→ Normal over jet and over bite
→ Class I molar and canine relation
→ Tight inter digitation of all cusps of posterior teeth
94. FIRST ORDER ADJUSTMENTS
→ Proper labiolingual position of the lateral
→ Upper canine prominence
→ Molar offset
→ Toe in relation to upper molar for disto lingual rotation
95. SECOND ORDER ADJUSTMENTS
→ U 2 in relation to U 1 and U 3
should be slightly shorter
→ Slight mesial angulation of U 6 for
proper occlusion
→ U 3 is slightly more mesially
angulated for proper canine relation
96. RECTANGULAR FINISHING WIRES
→ 0.022” x 0.018” alpha titanium ribbon wire used due to –
1. To build a precise degree of torque in the anterior segment
2. Vertical 0.022” dimension gives enough clearance in the 0.040” begg vertical
slot for vertical settling of teeth
97. CONCLUSION
→ Many shortcomings of the Begg appliance have been highlighted at different
points in time ever since its introduction.
→ But the basic tenets of Begg mechanotherapy have stood the test of the time
and largely remained unaltered.
→ The trend in Refined Begg is in the scientific progression of Dr. Begg’s
concepts, especially in the use of ultra light forces. With the advances in
technology & materials, a better realization of these concepts has been
possible, ultimately leading to superior results in treatment.

2) Examples of some such brackets are the combination brackets, the edge wise brackets in Beddtiot approach and the tip edge brackets.
3) and these can be elaborated under THREE headings - CHANGE IN CONCEPTS - IMPROVEMENTS IN HARDWARE - MODIFICATION IN MECHANICS IN ALL THREE STAGES OF TREATMENT
2. for efficient ultimate bodily translation with the least taxation of anchorage.
3. due to minimum friction between wire and the bracket.
5. eg. Bite correction proceeding other movements.
7. for overjet reduction and correction of posterior occlusion
It was thought that light intra or inter arch forces would retract the anteriors, whereas heavier forces would make them as anchor teeth & protract only the posteriors.
Even in very difficult cases with extreme degree of crowding, proclination or deep bites, the stage I should not extend beyond 10-12 months.
This part of correction of incisor inclination is by uncontrolled tipping, which is beneficial at this stage because it moves the incisor root apices away from the lingual or labial cortical plates into the middle of cancellous bone.
For retracting proclined but otherwise well aligned anteriors, the arch wire employed is s.s. 016" size. Cuspid circles are kept 2mm mesial to the canine brackets, and elastic cuspid lies are given. Cl II or lower Cl I elastics are used for retracting upper or lower incisors, by sliding them along the arch wire, which itself slides through the canine brackets. As the spaces start closing and cuspid circles start touching the canine brackets, they are rolled over mesially every visit till the space closes completely, keeping the cuspid circles more than 2mm mesially is not advisable because it causes round tipping canine crowns. Elastic cuspid ties get over stretched when the cuspid circles are kept too for mesially and thus tend to tip the canine crowns mesially
Rotated molars are corrected with appropriate toe-in or toe-out bends in a S.S. 0.016" archwire. The actual amount of toe-in or toe-out should be checked after inserting the arch wire in molar tubes, and by pulling the anterior segment incisally to engage in the incisor brackets. Anchor bends and amount of molar rotation can affect the amount of toe-in or toe-out.
During bite opening, the lower incisors tend to procline by uncontrolled tipping (i.e. crowns move labially and roots more lingually. This is prevented by one of the following ways :
In severe deep bite cases, there is heavy contact of incisal edges of lower incisors with the palatal surface of upper incisors or with palatal mucosa. The contact prevents labial movements of the lower incisor crowns during the initial phase of bite opening.
The lower incisor brackets are bonded as for gingivally as possible anchor bends in lower arch are of lesser degree than in upper arch, since lesser amount of intrusive force is used on the lower teeth than the upper teeth. Both these measures reduce tipping tendency of tover incisors.
A MAA with labial root torque is used on the lower incisors
If discrepancy is such that 0.018" wire of stage II cannot be engaged in premolar bracket at the end of stage II, a slightly undersize 0.016" arch wire can be used for one visit in order to get the arch wire engagement in premolar brackets
