INSTRUMENTS NEEDED
MOSQUITO FORCEP CURVED, UTILITY PLIER, NEEDLE HOLDER MATHEW, LIGATURE TUCKER, PIN AND LIGATURE CUTTER.
ILINGUAL 3D BIFID- PROBE PROVIDED IN THE BOX.
2. EXERCISE 1
Step 1:
Lock typodont with 2 way sticking tape,
0.016” Niti straight Wire
4 unit E chains pre-cut.
Step 2:
Reverse Double over tie
Place the e chains on each bracket as shown.
Step 3 :
Insert the arch wire.
Ligate the First premolar with Elastomeric Module to
stabilize the arch wire
Step 4:
Holding the wire in the slot with the bifid end of the
iLingual probe pull the e chain with the mosquito
forceps.
3. EXERCISE 1
Step 5 :
Turn the e chain gingivally such that the same
module of the e chain pushes the wire in the slot
Step 6 :
Completed reverse double overtie.
Step 7:
Do the same for the six anterior teeth
Step 8 :
Normal ligation of rest of the teeth with elastomeric
module.
4. EXERCISE 1
Step 9:
Completed ligation of 0.016” Niti
Step 10:
Removal of Reverse double overtie with the fine end
of the bifid probe.
Disengage the reverse double over ties and the
elastomeric modules.
Remove the wire
Finally remove the reverse double over tie modules.
EXERCISE 2
Ligation Technique for retraction arch.
Wire used is 0.017 x 0.017 “ NiTi ( for technique
purpose only, actual retraction wire shall be a 0.022 “ x
0.016 “ SS)
Step 1:
Consolidate the anterior segment with Figure of 8 Tie
with Ligature wire.
5. EXERCISE 2
Completed figure of 8 tie. 3-3.
Step 2:
Consolidate the posterior segments from the 5- 7 as
single unit.(as would be in case of 4/4 extn.)
Consolidate the posterior segments from the 5- 7 as
single unit.(as would be in case of 4/4 extn.)
Step 3:
Place 2 ligatures on the 3/3 on either side of extraction
space to ligate the 3/3 with reverse double overtie with
Steel ligature to control tipping in vertical insertion
brackets.
6. EXERCISE 2
Step 4:
Place the square wire in the slots
First ligate the 5/5 to make the wire stable.
Step 5:
Now with the bifid end of the iLingual probe push the
wire into the slot and then pull both the ends of
ligature over the wire.
Pull both the ends of ligature over the wire.
Pass one end of ligature below the hook of the bracket
to the other side and ligate , thus completing a reverse
double over tie .
7. EXERCISE 2
Step 6:
Repeat the same on the other side canine.
Step 7:
Now ligate the rest of the teeth with S.S.ligatures.
Step 8:
Take 4 unit e chains
Stretch from 3-6 on either side.
