An article written about our techniques by Terry Whitty, with my texts and photos.
Lingual Orthodontics lab techniques and new instruments used for Indirect Bonding of Lingual Brackets, following the same theory that the TARG from Ormco was based on. However these instruments were revolutionary in that they were the first 'Digital' ones and so easy to use! It is through their built in precision and the "Ease of Use" factor that enables us to not only work easier as Dental Technicians, Orthodontists, Assistants and whoever else wants to be involved, but also do more to help the clinic with diagnostics. The T.A.D. or "Torque Angulation Device" evolved to not only follow the TARG and B.E.S.T techniques of Lingual, but was also designed to measure Orthodontic models for Tip and Torque values.

The differences between Roth, MBT and Edgewise brackets
In orthodontics, brackets are small pieces of molded metal with extended bits that are attached to the teeth of the patient and used to hold an adjustable wire. Brackets help the dentist straighten the teeth through gradual adjustments.
The two most common types of braces for teeth are traditional metal braces and invisible braces. Traditional braces use metal brackets connected to the teeth with wire threaded through the brackets that adjust the teeth.
And what is the differences between Roth, MBT and Edgewise on the torque and the angle?

Labial Indirect Bonding...an accurate method of controling Torque.Peter Sheffield
Article on Labial Indirect Bonding techniques for Orthodontics using the instruments TAD and BPD. This technique was used to accurately program torque and doesn't go into the realms of what torque should be used...this would be an entirely new article!
It highlights how modern Indirect Bonding for Orthodontics can be done via precise instruments that control the TORQUE. This is something that even today CAD CAM techniques have problems with. They can position the brackets on the teeth, but as we know in Orthodontics, torque is a factor that can change many other things, one of the obvious ones being the leveling of the teeth, When Torque is leveled out between slightly differing morphologies of teeth, then height will be more predictable.
A summary / description about what the "IN-tendo" system of indirect bonding is and what clients are likely to expect. It is related to both Lingual and Labial Indirect bonding at "The Torque and Angulation lab", Chiang Mai, Thailand.
How we use the Tip and Torque surveyor to derive values for Tip ( Angulation) and Torque ( Inclination ) in Orthodontic Indirect Bonding to the master models.
Actually 'Torque' is a torsional force (as described in most engineering and physics books) between the wire and the bracket slot. When the slot has been programmed with a certain value for a prescribed inclination required in relation to the flat wire plane, then the flat wire will be distorted in the slot causing a torsional force to move the tooth to the desired position. However this does depend on many factors including slot V's wire size causing 'slop' or the 'Torque Trap' and of cause the bio-mechanics.
Anterior Torque: Second and Third order Problems in Lingual Orthodontics Revi...Peter Sheffield
Another look to show clearly the problems relating to bracket height on anterior teeth with relation to Torque prescribed in slot with Lingual Orthodontics.
A guide to communicating the necessary information for laboratory work with regards to Orthodontic diagnostic set-ups and Indirect bonding of orthodontic brackets for labial or Lingual.
A brief summary about the information usually required to be provided to the laboratory with regards to a case for Lingual Orthodontics. Here I have included our own preferences and lab forms with also a guideline of how to fill in the lab forms and some explanations as to why we need this info.Also some things for the clinician to keep in mind when preparing a Lingual case.

12th ESLO POSTER Presentation about Height V's Torque in Lingual orthodontics Peter Sheffield
This study was done at 'The Torque and Angulation Lab' by Peter Sheffield actually a couple of years before the ESLO 2016 but never used or published.
It highlights one of the common problems in Lingual Orthodontics, which is bracket placement with regards to 'Torque'. As positive crown Torque increases, even with the same vertical height setting to the wire plane, then the brackets will be bonded more and more gingival. This has other effects as the distance from bracket slot to the vestibular face of the tooth in question increases on anterior teeth. Thus understanding this phenomenon and just how much 'torque loss' we can expect due to wire sizes, then we should be able to adjust the height setting to match our results if we really desire a 'flat wire'. Also by understanding the "Thickness'" measurements, we can compensate with composite pads to reduce 1st Order bends in the anterior arch wire.
Who we are and what we do with regards to our laboratory services for Lingual Orthodontics. From simple 2D bonding, to 3D B.E.S.T. system using standard charts for Tip and Torque, or go for the fully customized IN-Tendo techniques which needs us to make diagnostic study models, then using the TTS and BPI to bond the brackets to the mal-occlusion models.
Innovation of the 'Tip & Torque Surveyor' T.T.S)Peter Sheffield
Some history and details about this instrument for Surveying Tip and Torque in Orthodontics. It's origins came after I was training with the Modified TARG at Dr.Fillion's Lab, Paris in May 2004 (2 weeks) and May 2005 for again 2 weeks.
I have always looked for precision with a critical eye, but think it's useless with ergonomics and "ease of use".
The future goal is to link this instrument to a Digital software to align both the manual precision with 3D user technology.
Our first course in Thailand with Dr. Henrique Valdetaro. Our aim to remove the mysteries and uncertainty about Lingual Orthodontics, by showing both a structured technique for both clinical and laboratory work. With 'The Torque and Angulation lab' we demonstrated how Tip and Torque are controlled through lingual indirect bonding and what the clinical results can be if proper clinical procedures are followed. From impression to finish Dr. Henrique and Peter Sheffield showed the step by step techniques used.
The second course with myself and Dr. Henrique Valdetaro which not just introduces the Orthodontist to some of the basics and rules of Lingual Orthodontics, but "De-Mystifies" it! 3 days of lectures and hands on work to explain how cases are diagnosed and treated for A to Z . Clinical diagnostics, bio-mechanics, clincial techniques, Indirect Bonding, lab work and precise bracket placement with instruments, transfer trays and a full video demo of the IDB in the mouth. Lingual Wire templates and wire bending, wire sequencing, controlling tip and torque and much more!
Short lecture 20 mins "Lets talk about torque in Lingual Orthodontics"Peter Sheffield
A short lecture I gave at the ESLO conference in Athens last year. This study was also used for the poster that got 3rd place and described how just changing torque in the Upper Central Incisor will change the position on the lingual surface of the tooth, both in regards to gingival proximity and the fit of the base with an average lingual bracket slot of 55 degrees to base. I have converted it to an online PDF format here so it is easier to see.
An article written for a magazine in India about the evolution of IN-tendo and some history of Ortho as background to where we are today.
An evolution of the Lab techniques we use in our 'Indirect Bonding for Orthodontics' via accurate bracket placement using standard Orthodontic brackets for Labial and the Lingual technique. How we customize cases by measuring malocclusion models, doing diagnostic set-ups and Kesling models, then measuring the difference in Tip and Torque to get individualized prescriptions for bonding. A technique started in 2010 by Peter Sheffield in Chiang Mai, Thailand.
Crown Angulation and Inclination with good occlusionPeter Sheffield
This was my first contribution to an Orthodontic article. With Dr. Dhirawat of the Chiang Mai Orthodontic faculty, we measured many models of Northern Thai's with good occlusion and facial profile with our NEW instrument the T.A.D. or Torque Angulation Device. This instrument was the first digital instrument able to measure Tip and Torque accurately and easily from Orthodontic study models. As all previous studies were probably done on a particular population and geographical location, then we wanted to compare the values derived with previous studies such as Andrews, Hilgers, Bennet, Roth, MBT, etc.. having a new instrument also meant that the readings were more in tune with the related tooth morphology Conclusions, should bracket prescriptions differ for different races, facial types, etc?.
With the Organization of the Torque and Angulation Lab, we managed a 2 day Lingual Orthodontics course with Dr Rafi Romano and 1 day lab course with lab techniques from IN-tendo and the Torque Angulation lab.
Nov 3,4 and 5th 2011. Probably the biggest Lingual Course event to be ever held in Thailand and the first time Dr. Rafi Romano was lecturing here.
A great introduction to Lingual Orthodontics from many clinical and laboratory lectures.

bracket distances and smaller arch radius. Delving
into the details of most of this is beyond the scope
of the article but suffice to say there are differences
between the two modalities.
