The Forsus Fatigue Resistant Device as a Fixed Functional Appliance
Volume 45 : Number 8 : Page 463 : Aug 2011
When mandibular retrusion is a factor in Class II malocclusion,1 a functional appliance is often used to advance the mandible.2 To avoid the need for patient compliance in such therapy,3 a number of f...

A New Auxiliary Spring for Correction of a Canted Incisal Plane
Volume 48 : Number 8 : Page 500 : Aug 2014
Although the variable relationship between the teeth and the hard and soft tissues makes it impossible to define dentofacial parameters that will be valid for all patients, everyone agrees that symmet...

Mini-Implant-Supported Orthodontic Extrusion and Restorative Treatment of Fractured Teeth
Volume 50 : Number 6 : Page 0 : Jun 2016
Traumatic fracture of anterior teeth can have both dental and psychological effects. A tooth fracture below the gingival attachment or alveolar bone crest also presents restorative problems. Failure to place the crown margins on sound tooth material may violate the biologic width and would therefore be considered a restorative failure.

From Planning to Delivery of a Bone-Borne Rapid Maxillary Expander in One Visit
Volume 51 : Number 4 : Page 198 : Apr 2017
Miniscrews were initially proposed as a means of overcoming problems with dental anchorage due to poor patient compliance or the limits of orthodontic biomechanics.1,2 More recently, intriguing new ap...

A Superelastic Loop for Uprighting Mesially Impacted Lower Second Molars
Volume 53 : Number 12 : Page 726 : Dec 2019
The original Loca-System used a loop of rectangular superelastic nickel titanium wire to distalize maxillary molars. This modification of the loop can be used to recover and upright a deeply impacted mandibular second molar, as demonstrated in an adult patient.

The Non-Helix Appliance: An Alternative to the Quad Helix
Volume 55 : Number 2 : Page 122 : Feb 2021
Dr. Gerald Spencer introduces the non-helix, a versatile, comfortable expander constructed from .036" round beta titanium wire. He shows how the appliance can be adapted to correct mesial first-molar rotations, distalize molars on one or both sides, or open the bite.

Anchor-Lock System Double-Y for Post-SARPE Retention and Simultaneous Molar Distalization
Volume 57 : Number 2 : Page 110 : Feb 2023
Dr. Okuhashi and colleagues describe a palatal plate that is anchored by four titanium miniscrews. As illustrated in an adult patient, the Anchor-Lock System Double-Y is designed to maintain surgically assisted rapid palatal expansion while distalizing or protracting the molars.

Early Orthopedic Class III Treatment with a Modified Tandem Appliance
Volume 37 : Number 4 : Page 218 : Apr 2003
Growing patients with dentofacial deformities characterized by either a midfacial deficiency or true mandibular prognathism are perhaps the most challenging cases for the clinician to manage. In patie...
