CASE REPORTTreatment of Skeletal Class II Open Bite with the Triple Intrusion SystemHATICE GÖKALP DDS, PhD, RUHENGIZ EFENDIYEVA DDS, PhD, ÖZLEM BILGILI,, ECEM EFE DDSThe authors introduce a reliable method for treating an adult open-bite patient with maxillary vertical excess and a retrognathic mandible. This case report illustrates a triple intrusion system that uses a multipurpose implant, posterior maxillary cap splints, and palatal miniscrews to enable maxillary posterior retraction and mandibular anterior rotation. |

PEARLSModified Transpalatal Arch for Simultaneous Intrusion and RetractionRIYA SHETTY BDS, MDS, ROOPAK NAIK BDS, MDS, PRAVEEN KUMAR PRABHU BDS, MDS, ANAND K. PATIL BDS, MDS, MOrthMiniscrews are commonly placed in the buccal dentoalveolus, mesial to the maxillary first molars, to anchor simultaneous intrusion and retraction of the anterior teeth. This simple Pearl takes us back to a tried-and-true alternative: a modified transpalatal arch with soldered buccal arms in place of miniscrews. |
