This document discusses mechanical principles in orthodontic therapy. It covers topics such as elastic materials and how they produce orthodontic forces, different archwire materials used, and how the elastic properties of beams can be controlled. Design factors in appliances like anchorage control and controlling forces through varying materials and archwire size and shape are examined. Methods to improve anchorage like reinforcement, subdivision of movement, tipping/uprighting, and skeletal anchorage are also summarized.
Action & Reaction Center of Resistance & Moment Mustafa Haddad
This document discusses the center of resistance and moment of force in orthodontics. It defines the center of resistance as the point through which a single force can be applied to a tooth to cause translation without rotation. The center of resistance is affected by the number of roots, amount of alveolar bone loss, and root resorption. Analytic studies show the center of resistance in single-rooted teeth with normal bone is 1/4 to 1/3 of the distance from the cementoenamel junction to the root apex. The moment of force is the tendency of a force to cause rotation, determined by multiplying the force magnitude by the perpendicular distance to the center of resistance. Understanding moment is important for effective appliance design
This document discusses the biomechanical basis of orthodontic tooth movement. It explains that orthodontic treatment is based on applying prolonged light pressure to a tooth to cause bone remodeling and tooth movement. The periodontal ligament and alveolar bone are involved in tooth movement responses. Application of light, continuous force maintains blood flow and cellular viability in the periodontal ligament to stimulate remodeling. Force magnitude, duration, direction and decay rate impact the type and rate of tooth movement. Both heavy and light forces can cause tooth movement through different biomechanical responses.

Types of tooth movement in orthodontics (4th BDS)Cing Sian Dal
There are three main types of orthodontic tooth movement: translation (bodily movement), pure rotation, and combined rotation and translation (tipping movement). Different levels of optimal force are required depending on the type of movement. Tipping requires 35-60g of force since only half the periodontal ligament area is compressed. Translation requires 70-120g since the entire area is compressed. Intrusion requires only 10-20g to avoid damage from heavy forces concentrating at the root apex. Root uprighting and torqueing also use force couples that compress within the crown, requiring 50-100g.

Deleterious effects of orthodontic force (4th BDS)Cing Sian Dal
This document discusses the deleterious effects of orthodontic force, including mobility and pain, effects on the pulp, root structure, and alveolar bone height. Mobility and pain are related to the magnitude of force applied - light forces minimize these issues. Heavy forces can cause pulp damage and undermining resorption leading to mobility. Root resorption is common with orthodontic treatment but is usually clinically insignificant, though heavy prolonged forces can cause permanent loss of root structure. Crestal bone loss of 0.5-1mm occurs with orthodontic tooth movement.

Biomechanics of Othodontic Tooth Movement_ 1 Dr. Nabil Al-ZubairNabil Al-Zubair
1) The document discusses the biomechanics of orthodontic tooth movement, including the physiology of the periodontal ligament and bone turnover in response to applied forces.
2) Tooth movement depends on applying light, continuous forces to the periodontal ligament over time to stimulate bone resorption on the pressure side and deposition on the tension side.
3) Different orthodontic appliances can apply different types of forces (tipping, translation, rotation, intrusion, extrusion) to produce the desired tooth movements. Fixed appliances allow for more complex movements while removable appliances are limited to tipping but are more patient-friendly.

This document discusses biomechanics principles related to orthodontic tooth movement. It covers key topics like forces, moments, center of gravity, center of resistance, center of rotation, and moment-to-force ratios. These principles are then applied to explain the mechanics of Begg mechanotherapy, specifically how it achieves incisor intrusion, incisor tipping, and space closure through control of moments and forces.
1. Forces in orthodontics are vectors that have magnitude, direction, and sense. The center of resistance is the point where a force must pass through to produce pure translation of a tooth.
2. When a force does not pass through the center of resistance, it produces a moment that causes rotation. Different force systems and moments produce different types of tooth movement such as tipping, translation, root movement, and rotation.
3. The principle of action and reaction applies to orthodontic tooth movement. Applying a force to one tooth produces reactive forces on other teeth, so anchorage control is important. Document provides examples of how to determine forces from wire bends and correct different malocclusions using mechanics.
This document discusses the biomechanical considerations of Begg stage I and stage II treatment. It begins by introducing concepts of biomechanics including forces, moments, centers of resistance and rotation. It then discusses the objectives of Begg stage I treatment, which are to open the anterior bite, eliminate crowding, close spaces, upright teeth and improve interarch relationships. The biomechanics of intrusion, tipping and space closure during Begg treatment are also summarized.

This document discusses various concepts related to orthodontic tooth movement including:
- Types of tooth movement such as tipping, translation, and torque which are determined by the ratio of moments of force and couples applied.
- Force systems used in orthodontics such as one-couple systems which allow for predictable tooth movement. Segmented springs and anterior intrusion/extrusion arches are examples.
- Applications of anterior intrusion and extrusion arches including intruding/extruding specific teeth, correcting midlines, and preventing excessive tipping during space closure. Factors like wire placement and anchorage can be modified to achieve the desired tooth movement.

Forces, moments, and couples are important design factors in orthodontic appliances. A force is a push or pull that can move an object, while a moment is the turning effect of a force around a pivot point like a tooth's center of resistance. Applying a couple, or two equal and opposite forces, can produce pure rotation without translation. The magnitude of a moment depends on the force applied and its distance from the center of resistance. Different moment-to-force ratios control the degree of tooth movement, from uncontrolled tipping to bodily movement to root torque. Wider brackets allow for larger moments and easier control of root position during space closure compared to narrow brackets.
Orthodontic tooth movements and biomechanics.Sk Aziz Ikbal
The document discusses biomechanics principles related to orthodontic tooth movement. It covers topics such as:
- Forces applied to teeth can cause movement through bone remodeling.
- Biomechanics refers to mechanics applied to biological systems. Knowledge of forces is needed to control orthodontic treatment.
- Teeth can move through light forces during normal function but heavier sustained forces over 1 second are needed for orthodontic tooth movement.
- Forces have magnitude and direction, while scalars only have magnitude. Resultant forces and moments from multiple applied forces are calculated.
- Different force systems and moment-to-force ratios produce different types of tooth movement such as tipping, translation, rotation, and torque.

How to Make a Field Mandatory in Odoo 17Celine George
In Odoo, making a field required can be done through both Python code and XML views. When you set the required attribute to True in Python code, it makes the field required across all views where it's used. Conversely, when you set the required attribute in XML views, it makes the field required only in the context of that particular view.

This document provides an overview of wound healing, its functions, stages, mechanisms, factors affecting it, and complications.
A wound is a break in the integrity of the skin or tissues, which may be associated with disruption of the structure and function.
Healing is the body’s response to injury in an attempt to restore normal structure and functions.
Healing can occur in two ways: Regeneration and Repair
There are 4 phases of wound healing: hemostasis, inflammation, proliferation, and remodeling. This document also describes the mechanism of wound healing. Factors that affect healing include infection, uncontrolled diabetes, poor nutrition, age, anemia, the presence of foreign bodies, etc.
Complications of wound healing like infection, hyperpigmentation of scar, contractures, and keloid formation.

2. The biologic cascade of events that ultimately results in bone
remodeling and orthodontic tooth movement begins with the mechanical
activation of an orthodontic appliance. The force systems produced by
orthodontic appliances, consisting of both forces and moments, displace
teeth in a manner that is both predictable and controllable. By varying the
ratio of moment to force applied to teeth, the type of tooth movement
experienced can be regulated by the orthodontist. Orthodontic appliances
obey the laws of physics and can be activated to generate the desired force
systems to achieve predetermined treatment goals for individual patients.
Likewise, any orthodontic appliance can be analyzed to define the
mechanical force systems it produces. Understanding the biomechanical
principles underlying orthodontic appliance activations is essential for
executing efficient and successful orthodontic treatment.
INTRODUCTION
www.indiandentalacademy.com
4. FORCE
The two broad classes of mechanical forces are:
Static: which deals with bodies at rest
Dynamic: which deals with moving bodies.
At any moment the oral structures can be considered to be in a state of
static balance.
Force is defined as an act upon a body that changes or tends to change
the state of rest or the motion of that body.
Though defined in units of Newtons it is usually measured in units of
grams or ounces.
Forces are vectors, having both direction & magnitude. Point of
application of force is also important in the understanding of tooth
movement.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
5. Force (contd.,)
Direction
Pull and push
Magnitude
Light and Heavy
Increasing the amount of force will increase the
amount of a free body displacement. However, it
is unclear how force magnitude is related to the
rate of tooth movement, which is a biologically
controlled phenomenon
www.indiandentalacademy.com
6. Force (contd.,)
Point of application
Center of Mass
Center of Gravity
Center of Resistance
www.indiandentalacademy.com
9. Center of Mass:
Each body has a point in its mass, which behaves as if the wholemass is
concentrated at the single point, which we call the center of mass in a
gravity-free environment. The same called center of gravity in an
environment where gravity is present.
Point of application of force in relation to center of Mass:
Tipping – When a force is applied on this pencil below its center of mass,
it tips and moves forward. When another force is applied above the center
of mass, the pencil will again tip are move forward.
Translation – If the force is passing through the center of mass, the whole
body moves in a straight line, in a parallel fashion. Here all the points of
the body get displaced equally from the initial position. This is called
bodily movement or translation
Therefore, same laws of mechanics apply to a tooth; for example, a force
applied below the center of gravity of the tooth will cause the tooth to tip.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
12. Center of Resistance:
Since the tooth is partially restrained, as its root is
embedded in bone, its center of gravity shifts
apically and is then referred to as the Center of
resistance
The center of resistance is a point at which the
resistance to tooth movement is concentrated. It is
determined by the nature of the external
constraints.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
14. Moment
A moment is defined as a tendency to rotate.
Moment of the force:
When a force is applied at any point other than through the
center of resistance, in addition to moving the center of
resistance in the direction of the force, a moment is
created. Since the tooth is embedded in the alveolar bone,
we can never apply a force directly on the center of
resistance. We can only apply a force on the exposed part
of the tooth, which is at a distance from the center of
resistance. Therefore with a single force in a typical
clinical situation, invariably create a moment, which is
called as moment of force.
A moment may be referred as “Rotation”, “Torquing”
www.indiandentalacademy.com
16. Factors controlling the moment:
it is the product of the force(F) times the
perpendicular distance from the point of force
application to the center of resistance (d).
measured in hybrid units such as grams-millimeters
(gm-mm).
Since the value of a moment is the product of a
force value (Such as grams) multiplied by linear
value (Such as millimeters) -therefore either
increasing the magnitude of the force or applying the
same force even further from the center of resistance
will increase the tendency for rotation .
www.indiandentalacademy.com
18. Center of Rotation:
if we draw the long axis of the tooth in its initial and final
positions, we will find that both these lines intersect at a point.
This is the point around which the tooth rotates and is called
the center of rotation .
Center of Rotation and Center of Resistance:
The center of rotation can be at the center of resistance,
apical to the center of resistance, at the root or at infinity.
Their position will determine the type of tooth movement.
Uncontrolled tipping:
Controlled tipping:
Translation or bodily movement:
Generally speaking, the center of resistance of a tooth does not
change, only the center of rotation changes.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
21. Couple
The moment of couple
instead of single force, we apply two forces equal in magnitude and opposite in
direction at a distance, the movement thus created is called the moment of a
couple
The two forces cancel out any tendency for the center of resistance of the
pencil to move, but the moment created by the two forces does not cancel each
other. The pencil therefore, rotates about its center of resistance regardless of the
point of application of the couple.
If the two forces of the couple act on opposite sides of the center of
resistance, their effect is additive. However, if they are on the same side of the
center of resistance, their effect is subtractive. Either way, no net force is felt by
the pencil, only a tendency to rotate.
A couple applies a pure moment to a teeth.
Moment of force
The concept of couple actually encompasses all situations involving rotation.
In other words any rotational tendency is related to couple. But a moment
(rotational tendency) can be achieved with a single force. The moment thus
created is called the moment of the force
www.indiandentalacademy.com
25. Axis: An axis is any point about which rotation takes place; it is dependent
only on the influence of outside forces any may be located anywhere
within or outside the rotating object.
Fulcrum: A fulcrum is a physical support such as an axle or the pivot under a
lever. A fulcrum is an actual point of application of force, either applied or
reactive, so it is an element of input into the total force picture.
Because of its structural function, a fulcrum may frequently be the
location of an axis as well.
Couple-Clinical Point
When the tooth is embedded within the alveolar bone we cannot
apply a couple with one force on the crown and the other force on the root.
We can apply a couple only on the exposed part of the tooth. Using this
couple mechanism we can achieve various tooth alignment procedures,
irrespective of the center of the resistance of the tooth.
Depending on the place in which the couple is acting, this rotational
tendency (moment) has been called “rotation” (first order), “tipping”
(second order), or “torque” (third order)
www.indiandentalacademy.com
26. Moment – to – Force Ratio
If a bracket is 10 mm from the center of
resistance, a force applied at the bracket causes the
tooth to tip because of a moment that is 10 times
the magnitude of the force. To counter-act this
tendency to tip, a couple is applied in the
magnitude of the force. This would be an applied
moment-to-force ratio of 10:1, resulting in
displacement of the tooth as if the force alone had
been placed through the center of resistance.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
28. Tooth Movement
A comprehensive way of describing tooth movement is to
express the components experienced by the tooth at the center
of resistance, which includes both translation and rotation.
The force at the bracket is equivalent to a force at the center of
resistance plus a moment that will cause the tooth to tip.
Whenever a force is applied at the crown of a tooth, a
tendency for the tooth to rotate, tip or torque is also created
(moment of force). In addition to the force applied, a couple
may also be engaged intentionally to partially correct,
completely correct, or over-correct this tendency. By
changing the ratio of the moment from the applied couple
(counterbalancing moment) to the force applied, the center
of rotation of tooth movement can be varied to produce the
type of tooth movement desired
www.indiandentalacademy.com
30. Uncontrolled tipping:
When only a force is applied at the bracket to move a
tooth, the equivalent force system at the center of
resistance is the force plus a moment that will tip the
crown in the direction of force. Without a moment to
counteract the tendency of the tooth to tip in the direction
of the force, the center of resistance of tooth moves in the
direction of the force, the crown moves further than the
center of resistance, and the apex actually moves in a
direction opposite to the force. Therefore the center of
rotation when the moment –to –force ratio is zero is just
apical to the center of resistance.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
31. Controlled tipping:
To counteract the tendency for tipping, a couple can
be applied intentionally at the bracket to produce a
moment of less magnitude in the opposite direction
(counterbalancing-moment). When a moment to force
ratio of 7:1 is applied at the bracket, the equivalent force
system at the center of resistances is a force to move the
tooth plus a small net tendency for the crown to tip in the
direction of the force. Therefore the center of rotation
when the moment-to-force ratio is 7:1 is at the apex of the
tooth, and only crown movement occurs.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
32. Translation:
To counteract the tendency for tipping, a
couple can be applied intentionally to produce a
moment of equal magnitude in the opposite
direction (counterbalancing-moment). When a
moment to force ration of 10:1 is applied at the
bracket, the equivalent force system at the center
of resistance is a single force with no net moment.
In the pure translation, the center of rotation is
considered to be at infinity because no rotation
occurs.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
33. Root movement:
When the counter-moment applied intentionally at a
bracket is more than the moment of force, the tooth
moves in the direction of the force but the crown tips in the
opposite direction. When a moment to force ratio of 12:1
is applied at the bracket, the equivalent force system at the
center of resistance is a force to move the tooth plus a
small net tendency for the tooth to tip in the direction of
the force. The center of rotation when the moment to
force ratio is 13:1 is at the crown of the tooth and only root
movement occurs.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
35. Pure rotation:
If only a couple, and no force is applied to a tooth, the
tooth will rotate around its center of resistance and the
tooth will not translate. Because the action of a couple
does not depend on its point of application, a pure
moment always acts at the center of resistance.
The forces of couples cancel out any tendency for the
center of resistance of the tooth to move, but the moment
produced by the couple causes the tooth to rotate. The
moment to force ratio is infinite and the center of rotation
is coincident with the center of resistance.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
36. Predicting the force systems:
Understanding the physics that determine the force system
generated by activating orthodontic appliances discloses the force and
moment that are applied to teeth at their point of attachment, usually at
the brackets.
To deduce how each tooth will be displaced as a result of activation, the
equivalent force systems acting at the centers of resistances must be
accessed subsequently.
Visual inspection method:
In determining what forces are present, the arch wire is fully
engaged into a bracket or tube and possible force system is evaluated
by the eyeballing. This method is based on laws of static equilibrium
and if not understood correctly can confuse further.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
38. Static equilibrium:
According to Newton’s third law, every action has an
equal and opposite reaction.
Requirement for static equilibrium:
Three requirements are accomplished automatically
whenever static equilibrium is established. They are:
The sum of all forces present must equal zero.
The sum of all moments present must equal zero
The sum of all forces and moments present must equal
zero.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
44. When an arch wire is fully engaged, we are generating
unequal moments. Forces are also generated to keep the
system balanced. Therefore, all the moments and forces
will sum up to zero (i.e. always results in static
equilibrium).
This application is the for every appliance, but not
necessarily for every tooth to which it is attached, the sum
of the forces and the sum of the moments must equal to
zero. That is because the orthodontic appliance itself does
not move instantaneously once it is placed (e.g. an arch
wire fully engaged will not move the teeth
instantaneously).
www.indiandentalacademy.com
45. Conclusion
the choice of appliances and technique used by
practitioners varies radically among individuals,
but the fundamental forces and moments they
produce are universal.
Appliance will always act according to the laws of
physics
Understanding the basic force systems helps
achieving controlled tooth movement in a
predictable manner
