This document provides information about postero-anterior cephalometric analysis, including its history, setup, landmarks, and purposes. Some key points:
- Postero-anterior cephalograms can provide important qualitative and quantitative skeletal and dentofacial data as a supplement to lateral cephalograms.
- Broadbent and Hofrath pioneered the methodology in 1931. Modern setup involves a headholder that can rotate 90 degrees from lateral to postero-anterior position.
- Analysis involves identifying landmarks like zygomatic arches, maxillary molars, and measuring widths, ratios, and angles to evaluate symmetry and proportions.
- Postero-anterior views have limitations due to superimposition

The document discusses Ronald Roth's modifications to the Andrews Straight Wire Appliance philosophy and treatment approach. Roth started using the Andrews appliance in 1970 and later modified the bracket prescription based on his clinical experience. Some key differences between Andrews and Roth include Roth allowing more tipping of teeth initially and building overcorrection into the brackets to account for relapse. Roth also placed more emphasis on achieving a gnathological occlusion goal versus Andrews' focus on anatomical tooth positions. The document outlines Roth's bracket placement, prescription, and rationale for his modifications to the straight wire appliance.
The document discusses early vs late orthodontic treatment. It provides definitions and discusses the advantages and disadvantages of early treatment. It describes different types of early treatment including growth modification devices, open bite correction, arch length discrepancy correction, eruption disturbances, and phase I treatment. It discusses how devices like headgears and functional appliances can be used for growth modification and provides examples of studies that have examined the effects of these appliances on craniofacial growth.

Class iii malocclusion /certified fixed orthodontic courses by Indian dental ...Indian dental academy
Class III malocclusion is characterized by the mandible being positioned forward in relation to the maxilla and cranial base. It can be caused by mandibular prognathism, maxillary retrognathism, or a combination. Treatment depends on whether the malocclusion has a dentoalveolar or skeletal component, and the patient's growth stage. For skeletal class III issues, early intervention like facemask therapy or chin cup therapy can encourage more favorable growth. Later treatment may involve orthodontics alone or combined with orthognathic surgery.
The document discusses the history and evolution of lingual orthodontics, describing the development of various lingual bracket systems from the 1970s to present. It covers key topics like patient selection, diagnostic considerations, bonding techniques, biomechanics, and keys to success with lingual therapy. Lingual orthodontics offers aesthetic benefits over labial appliances but also presents certain challenges in terms of treatment complexity and costs.

The pendulum appliance uses acrylic and springs to deliver continuous force from the palate to the upper molars, producing distal movement without affecting other teeth. It is fabricated with acrylic covering springs that extend to molar bands. Springs are activated in 3-week intervals to monitor distalization over 4 months before stabilizing molars. The appliance effectively treats Class II malocclusions without extractions through distal molar movement.
This document provides an overview of frictionless mechanics in orthodontics. It discusses various loop and spring configurations that can be used for space closure without tooth movement along the archwire. Advantages include control of tooth movement and known force levels. Disadvantages include more complex mechanics and potential patient discomfort. Factors like loop height and geometry determine the moment-to-force ratio and type of tooth movement achieved. The document defines key terms and principles of biomechanics relevant to frictionless orthodontic tooth movement.
Utility arches are auxiliary archwires used for orthodontic tooth movement. They are commonly made of blue elgiloy wire and engage the back four teeth (two molars) and front four teeth (incisors), so they are also known as 2x4 appliances. There are different types of utility arches for various tooth movements, including intrusion, retraction, and protrusion. Intrusion utility arches have a step cut anterior to the molar tube to allow slight tooth retraction while intruding incisors with a force of 25 grams per tooth. Adjustments are made intraorally using dental pliers.
This document provides information about molar distalization, including:
- Molar distalization involves moving molars backwards to correct malocclusions.
- Various appliances can be used for molar distalization, including headgear, K-loops, and pendulum appliances.
- Treatment planning for molar distalization generally involves two phases - a space gaining phase followed by a consolidation phase to achieve ideal occlusion.
This document discusses several methods for analyzing postero-anterior cephalometric radiographs:
- Ricketts analysis evaluates asymmetries in the nasal cavity, mandible, maxilla, dentition, and craniofacial structures. Measurements are compared to clinical norms.
- Hewitt analysis assesses facial symmetry by dividing the face into triangles based on landmarks and measuring asymmetries between left and right sides.
- Svanholt & Solow analysis evaluates transverse relationships between dental arches and jaws through linear and angular measurements between defined landmarks.
- Grayson analysis involves three overlays on the radiograph corresponding to different anatomical planes to localize craniofacial asymmetries in
in Orthodontics, Torque is a vital ingredient in the achievement of optimal esthetics, function and health of teeth and surrounding tissues, as also in stability of the treatment results

This document discusses treatment planning for maxillary surgical procedures. It provides an overview of the history and evolution of orthognathic surgery. Key developments include the introduction of sagittal split ramus osteotomy in 1959 and LeFort I downfracture technique in the 1960s. Modern techniques now allow repositioning of one or both jaws, and rigid internal fixation since the 1990s has improved patient comfort. The document outlines the treatment process from assessment to pre-surgical orthodontics to surgery and post-operative orthodontic alignment.

Fixed functional appliances / /certified fixed orthodontic courses by Indian ...Indian dental academy
The document discusses fixed functional appliances used to treat malocclusions. It focuses on different types of Herbst appliances, which are fixed bite jumping devices that keep the mandible in an anterior forced position. The original Herbst appliance from 1900 had telescopic parts made of metal attached to crowns on molars and premolars. Later modifications in the 1970s used bands and involved different anchorage methods. The modern Herbst typically uses cast metal splints covering all buccal teeth. It works full-time to alter mandibular position and correct Class II malocclusions without patient removal.
This document provides a history of the evolution of lingual brackets over time. It describes 7 generations of lingual brackets, with changes including adding hooks to brackets, modifying the shape of anterior bite planes, and developing self-ligating options. The document also summarizes key innovations like the development of the STb bracket system and customized CAD/CAM brackets like the Incognito system.
This randomized clinical trial compared the effectiveness of Hawley retainers and vacuum formed retainers (VFRs) in retaining orthodontic treatment results over a 6-month period. 355 subjects were randomly assigned to receive either Hawley or VFR retainers, and study models were analyzed at debonding and 6 months. There were no significant differences between the retainers in retaining tooth rotations, widths, or overbite. However, the VFR group had significantly less relapse of incisor irregularity, particularly in the mandibular arch, compared to the Hawley group. This suggests that VFRs may be more effective than Hawleys in maintaining lower incisor alignment after orthodontic treatment.

Use of modified tooth forms in complete denture occlusion / dental implant...Indian dental academy
This document discusses dental occlusion concepts and philosophies for complete dentures. It introduces key terms like physiologic occlusion and defines different occlusion schemes like balanced articulation and monoplane articulation. The document discusses advantages and disadvantages of using anatomic versus non-anatomic teeth for complete dentures. It also outlines requirements for maintaining denture stability, such as balanced occlusal contacts and control of horizontal forces. The goal of occlusion for complete dentures is to re-establish the homeostasis of the masticatory system disrupted by edentulism.

5. Introduction
Many individuals would like to have the
benefits offered by high-quality orthodontic
treatment, but do not want to have braces that are
visible to their friends and colleagues. This
avalanche of interest is primarily patient-motivated
by those who are visually and cosmetically aware.
In this age of self-improvement with its emphasis
on health, there has been an explosion of interest
in exercise programs, diet and nutrition, etc., as
well as a realization that personal appearance has
much to do with professional success.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
6. As we all know, there's an increased interest in
adult orthodontics, and everybody is striving for the
utmost in esthetics as well as functional excellence.
Current development of lingual orthodontics began
in earnest by 1975, when it became apparent that
bonding of brackets was a viable procedure, and that
"esthetic" plastic brackets were a compromise.
Adult patients present with unique challenge, of
wanting to look good even during orthodontic
treatment and search for alternatives to metal or clear
brackets continued and then Dr. Craven Kurz of
Beverly Hills, California, used lingual bonded
edgewise appliance for the first time and a significant
contribution to adult orthodontics was made and the
foundation for LINGUAL ORTHODONTICS was
made. He created his own lingual appliances by
modifying labial appliances.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
7. Lingual History
While the various current bonded lingual
appliances are a direct result of recent bonding
technology, lingual mechanics is nothing new.
1889 by John Farrar. "lingual removable arch"
1918, Dr. John Mershon "The Removable Lingual Arch as
an Appliance for the Treatment of Malocclusion of the
Teeth".
1922 Mershon's presentation on labial and lingual arches
with finger springs
March 1942 , Dr. Oren Oliver gave a clinic on a labiolingual
appliance
mid-'50s, Dr. William Wilson demonstrated a labio-looplingual appliance
www.indiandentalacademy.com
8. In the current "invisible braces" belongs to
many but the foundation was first kept In 1975, by
Dr.Craven Kurz who used a lingual bonded
edgewise appliance for the first time and made a
significant contribution to adult orthodontics. He
created his own lingual appliances by modifying
labial appliances.
In 1976, Ormco started its research and
development in close cooperation with Dr.
Alexander (Jim) Wildman
Later in 1976, Dr. Kurz submitted specific
designs and concepts to the U.S. Patent Office for
the patent rights to his unique edgewise lingual
appliance.
Thereafter, Dr. Kurz and Ormco bring it from a
dream to reality.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
9. In 1978, lingual arch form
was studied
topographically, to
establish lingual torque
and tip angulations in
reference to accepted
labial measurements.
From this accumulated
data and using a design
concept to assure proper
function and patient
comfort, the initial lingual
edgewise prototype was
manufactured in 1979.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
10. In December 1979, Dr. Kinya Fujita, of Kanagawa
Dental University, Japan, published an article
describing appliances with a lingual bracket design
and mushroom shaped archwires.
Obviously, no one is yet in a position to give an
objective, complete appliance. It appears,
however, that many of the major obstacles have
been overcome, and the remaining task of defining
treatment modalities will be complete in the near
future.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
11. Research & Development
Initial Brackets
An .018" slot size
–Conservation of incisal-gingival bracket dimension
–Compatibility with existing archwires
Modification was made in the bite plane on the
maxillary cuspids, from a flat plane to a bi-beveled
plane, in order to minimize bracket-cuspid
interference in the final Class I cuspid relationship
The Lingual Task Force was established in
December 1980 to provide additional input on design
considerations and to expand the treatment
modalities. Ball hooks were added to all lingual
brackets at this time. Ball hooks, while aiding greatly
in placing elastic ligatures and elastics ALSO cause
www.indiandentalacademy.com
gingival hyperplasia
12. Later Modifications
Maxillary anterior brackets incorporate a bite
plane designed into the incisal edge of the
bracket. The bite plane is parallel to the archwire
and the occlusal plane.
All brackets have a gingival ball hook which
greatly facilitates elastic ligature placement,
rotation control, and placement of intra- and
intermaxillary elastics and starting from 1 st
generation today we are using 7th generation with
lots of improvement from previous ones and
more advances to be made in near future.

13. BRACKETS
First generation
1976
– Flat maxillary
occlusal bite
plane from C-C
– Lower incisor and
premolar bracket
had low profile
and half round
– Had no hooks
www.indiandentalacademy.com
15. BRACKETS
Third generation
1981
– Hooks added to all
anteriors and premolar
brackets
– The first molar had a
bracket with internal
hook
www.indiandentalacademy.com
17. BRACKETS
Fifth generation
1985-86
– Anterior inclined plane
became pronounced
– Increase in labial torque
in maxillary anterior
region
– Attachment for TPA

18. BRACKETS
SIXTH generation 1987-90
–
–
–
Inclined plane became more square in shape
Hooks on anterios and premolars were elongated
Hooks on all brackets
www.indiandentalacademy.com
19. BRACKETS
Seventh generation 1990- Present
– Maxillary anterior inclined plane is now heart shaped with short
hooks
– The lower anterior brackets have larger inclined plane with short
hooks
– The premolar brackets were widened mesiodistally and hooks were
shortened the increased width of Premolar bracket allows better
angulation and rotation control
www.indiandentalacademy.com
20. Disadvantages
Discomfort to the tongue
Difficulty in speech, which usually
improves after 2-3 weeks of appliance
placement
Extended chair side time needed for
appliance placement and adjustments
Expensive
www.indiandentalacademy.com
21. Advantages
The labial surface of anterior teeth plays an important
esthetic role.
In labially placed brackets, the susceptibility of enamel
surface to chemical results and plaque accumulation with
poor oral hygiene is increased.
Permanent and unsightly decalcification marks can result
in labial.
Easy access for routine oral hygiene procedures on the
labial surfaces.
Clinical judgement of treatment progress can be enhanced.
Evaluation of individual tooth position can be easily
accomplished by having labial surface free of distracting
metal or plastic brackets.
Soft tissue responses of the lips and cheeks to treatment
can be judged accurately because there is no distortion of
shape or irritation caused by labial appliance.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
22. Guidelines For Case Selection
To summarize the patient selection criteria and influences
of appliance design parameters on treatment planning, the
following guidelines, based upon our clinical experience thus
far, may be of assistance in the case selection process:

32. Advantages
HIRO SYSTEM
– No electronic equipment needed for bracket positioning and tray
making.
– No need to transfer brackets from the setup model to the original
cast as in the CLASS system.
– Extractions , elastic separation, expansion and/or distalization can
be carried out between impressions and bonding.
– Individual hard tray is very small and rigid making bonding very
accurate.
– The resin core has no relationship with the tooth alignment.
– Limited composite overflow makes oral hygiene more easier for
patient to maintain and more comfortable.
– In cases of severe crowding, sequential bonding is easier to
manage than in other lingual indirect bonding procedures.
– Rebonding is very quick and accurate, with the setup model and 3D archwire, and can be done in a few minutes.
– It is much cheaper.
– The core, made for each individual teeth is not affected by the
position of other teeth allow precise bonding of any tooth at any

time.
41. Soft tissue and histological
considerations
Three months required for
adult bone to get
conditioned for effective
orthodontic tooth
movement.
Adult bones, less
trabeculated, reduced
blood supply and hence
slower movement than in
adolescents.
Facial profile with age will
become flatter.

patients must be well educated in oral
hygiene and motivated from the beginning.
Oral hygiene instructions should cover the
use of floss and floss threaders, dietary
restrictions, a fluoride regime, and routine
prophylaxis.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
44. Speech
A study by the Eastman Dental Center
These conclusions were reported:
• The lingual appliance has a mild overall effect on speech.
• The "s", "sh", "t-d", and "th" sounds are slightly distorted less than 10
percent of the time with lingual appliances. This distortion usually
disappears within a month of appliance placement.
• From one to nine months after appliance placement ------ insignificant
residual distortion of sounds.
• Lingual patients' subjective opinion is speech is not normal until the
tongue becomes comfortable.
• Patients with only maxillary lingual appliances have fewer, milder
errors of speech and adapt sooner than patients with both arches
bonded.
• Speech distortion is significantly greater and lasts longer with lingual
appliances than with labial appliances.
Initial tongue irritation has also been a complaint of lingual
patients. The recently introduced "Generation 7" lingual bracket
appears to reduce both tongue irritation and gingival inflammation
because of its modified size and shape and increased gingival

62. Pontics
Esthetic considerations
(Dr. Smith)
– To treat black holes formed after Xn
– Make impression of cast where
extracted tooth is present, and in it
build up the composite pontic and the
attached veneer using a lightcured,
microfilled composite for the inner
layer and a fluid composite for the
external layer
– Prepare the buccal surface of the
tooth to which the esthetic veneer is
to be bonded as usual with an acid
etchant, primer, and lightcured
adhesive Attach the veneer to that
surface, and cure the adhesive
Remove any occlusal prematurities
that could dislodge the temporary
esthetic prosthesiswww.indiandentalacademy.com
63. Treatment planning
To arrive at a definitive treatment plan and reach a
conclusion as to labial versus lingual, it is first
necessary to review the characteristics, known to
date, that distinguish conventional fixed
appliances from lingual appliance
mechanotherapy.
Periodontal Considerations
Restorative Considerations
Lingual Crown Height
TMJ Considerations
Extraction Versus Nonextraction Considerations
Vertical
Anteroposterior
Transverse
www.indiandentalacademy.com
64. Periodontal Considerations
Short lingual clinical crowns can present a
contraindication to optimum lingual bracket
positioning. The periodontist may, in certain cases,
be able to provide additional clinical crown length
through reduction of inflammation orappropriate
surgical procedures.
Lingual appliance can cause gingival hypertrophy
caused by the bracket and bonding resin flash
www.indiandentalacademy.com
65. Restorative Considerations
naturally more increased in the adult patient
replacing porcelain-fused-to-metal crowns
or other metallic restorations with
provisional plastic crowns to permit lingual
bonding must be closely evaluated
loss of several teeth, extreme tipping, and
multiple or complex bridgework, the lingual
appliance may be contraindicated
www.indiandentalacademy.com
66. Lingual Crown Height
Lingual clinical crown heights on the average patient are
approximately 30% shorter than the available crown on the
labial surfaces.
7mm of lingual crown height is necessary on the maxillary
incisors in order to achieve optimum bracket placement.
Particular attention should be given in the following
instances:
• Extreme brachyfacial types with short alveolar and
crown height dimensions
• Partially erupted teeth in the young adolescent
patient
• Crown heights that have been diminished by
excessive wear, trauma, or restorative work
• Diminutive teeth, i.e., peg laterals
www.indiandentalacademy.com
67. TMJ Considerations
relief of joint symptoms following lingual appliance
placement because of the disarticulation of
posterior interferences, creation of freedom of
movement of the "locked" mandible, and changes
in muscle position and length due to different
posturing of the mandible.
sophisticated evaluation of the TMJ is needed.
The net effect of bite opening, posterior extrusion,
and mandibular rotation must be carefully
considered.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
68. Extraction Versus Nonextraction
Considerations
especially Class I deep bites, are excellent
candidates
An ideal extraction case
anchorage is not critical
Class II correction could be achieved principally
as a result of the extractions.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
69. Vertical
This bite opening produces both positive and negative
effects.
– In the low angle brachyfacial patterns, the bite opening is usually
desirable. Many deep bite cases have low mandibular plane
angles, and benefit from posterior extrusion.
– In the Mesofacial and dolicofacial types, where bite opening may
not be desirable, use of high-pull headgear becomes a critical part
of the treatment plan to maintain posterior control. According to
Dr.Gorman, "It is amazing to find that adults accept this unsightly
appliance (headgear), when the primary reason for wanting the
lingual appliance was cosmetic.”
The posterior disclusion, resulting from the anterior bite
plane opening, permits a rapid eruption of the molars and
bicuspids, with posterior occlusion reestablishing in
approximately 3 to 4 months.
Brings about initial relief of TMJ symptoms
www.indiandentalacademy.com
70. Anteroposterior
Because of the vertical opening and the immediate rotation
of the mandible (down and back), the lingual appliance also
induces a Class II tendency. This may be desirable in
certain cases, but in most instances it exerts additional
pressure on the orthodontist to control anchorage.
resulting anterior open bite and a developing Class II
dental relationship ,occuring as the result of the mandibular
rotation and the posterior disclusion .
When Class II elastics are planned, it is important to
prepare the mandibular arch level with adequate
anchorage and an archwire of sufficient stiffness to prevent
any mesiocclusal movement of the lower molars, band
second molars whenever possible, and give long span
elastics.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
71. Transverse
With the initial posterior disclusion, the expansive nature of
the lingual appliance, and a tendency to cause mesiobuccal
molar rotation during space closure, intermolar dimension
becomes more important to control which can be easily done
with help of transpalatal arch bars
Interarch retraction forces on more flexible wire can cause a
"bowing" effect, resulting in the bicuspids being displaced
buccally and the molars rotating to the mesiobuccal resulting
in
– functional interference and
– further aggravation of the anteroposterior discrepancy
This same "bowing" effect can also occur in the vertical
direction, potentially causing loss of anterior torque control,
tipping, and further bite opening. One technique utilized to
offset this bowing effect (Dr. Smith) is to place a
compensating lingually directed curvature in the closing
archwire form.

The following are taken into consideration
1. Li-Point—the most prominent point of the
lingual surface or the tip of the protuberance of
each tooth (horizontal bracket position).
2. Embrasure Line—a line connecting all the
contact points, as defined by Andrews.
3. Lingual Crown Height (LCH)—the vertical
dimension of each clinical crown.
4. Lingual Straight Plane (L-S Plane)—the
plane of vertical bracket slot positions, formed by
connecting the centers of the posterior lingual
clinical crowns and extending the line to the A
anterior segment.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
97. LSW appliance Vs Kurz appliance
Advantages
– Allows ease of flossing.
– Gingival portion of bracket has fewer undercuts such as hooks, resulting in
improved oral hygiene in the cervical region of lower anterior teeth.
– Distance of contact point from the wire is long enough to permit proximal slicing
without removing the wire.
– Without bite planes it is easy to establish adequate overbite during detailing
stage.
– Opposite direction of wire insertion helps in easy rotational correction.
– Bracket rebondinig is easier as it doesn’t require removal of archwire.
– Torque control is better as the wire is pushed into the slot during application of
the retraction forces.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
– Ease of anterior expansion.
98. Ease of flossing and proximal slicing

105. 2 D Lingual brackets
-FORESTADENT
2D-Lingualbrackets
The 2D lingual brackets are ideally
suited for clinicians who would like to
gain experience in lingual
orthodontics treating less complex
cases. Because of the unique bracket
design no large inventory is required
helping to control cost.
Outstanding patient Comfort
Lingual brackets have an extremely
low profi le and are barely noticeable
for the patient.
Easy to use
The 2D lingual brackets are easy to
use self ligating brackets with a
vertical slot for fast and easy archwire
insertion.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
121. CONCLUSION
A great deal has been learned and much remains to
be done.
We need to:
1. To ultimately offer the same degree of control as is
obtainable with conventional fixed appliances,
2. To develop a smooth, low-profile appliance with
minimal interference with soft tissue, for patient
comfort, and
3. To develop a lingual appliance with the least
deviation from familiar, well-established labial
edgewise principles, if possible with a straightwire approach.
