Effective Vertical Control of the Entire Maxillary Arch with a Palatal TAD-Supported Appliance
Volume 54 : Number 10 : Page 620 : Oct 2020
Vertical control is especially important in patients with hyperdivergent growth patterns. Drs. Azami, Nanda, and Uribe demonstrate a method of intruding the entire maxillary dentition to encourage forward mandibular autorotation, using a versatile, custom-designed splint anchored by only two palatal miniscrews.

The Pterygoid Anchorage Technique
Volume 58 : Number 5 : Page 312 : May 2024
In cases requiring extensive upper-molar distalization, long temporary anchorage devices can be inserted in the pterygoid area to avoid the disadvantages of interradicular and infrazygomatic miniscrews. Drs. Friedländer and Chhatwani demonstrate the technique in an adult patient.

Regeneration of the Anterior Palatal Alveolar Cortex after Treatment of Bimaxillary Protrusion
Volume 54 : Number 7 : Page 398 : Jul 2021
Excessive incisor retraction in a bimaxillary protrusive case can lead to adverse iatrogenic sequelae. Dr. Singh uses cone-beam computed tomography to document alveolar bone remodeling after treatment of a patient whose upper incisors were retracted bodily past the palatal cortical plate.

Miniscrew-Supported Posterior Intrusion for Treatment of Anterior Open Bite
Volume 48 : Number 3 : Page 158 : Mar 2014
Conventional treatment of skeletal anterior open bite involves orthognathic surgery to reposition the posterior maxilla superiorly. This allows the mandible to rotate upward and forward, closing the a...

Surgical-Orthodontic Correction of Skeletal Class III Malocclusion with Vertical Maxillary Excess
Volume 50 : Number 12 : Page 754 : Dec 2016
Vertical maxillary excess, characterized by excessive posterior and anterior dentoalveolar height, is often associated with excessive lower facial height and lip incompetence. A gummy smile, an open b...

Uprighting Deeply Impacted Mandibular Second Molars with Miniscrew Anchorage
Volume 53 : Number 7 : Page 405 : Jul 2019
The availability of micro-implant anchorage with immediate loading offers new possibilities for extrusion and uprighting of severely impacted second molars, as the authors demonstrate. A 24-year-old female patient is presented as an example of the technique.

Treatment of Complications Associated with Lower Fixed Retainers
Volume 50 : Number 1 : Page 54 : Jan 2016
Bonded retainers are often used to maintain orthodontic treatment results, especially for an increasing number of practitioners advocating long-term or even lifelong retention. Although fixed retainers have been described as effective, safe and predictable, and compatible with periodontal health, long-term retention is not without risks. Failures of fixed retainers, as evidenced by debonding or fatigue wire fracture, are relatively common. Long-term use of fixed retainers is associated with increased calculus and plaque accumulation, with a consequent risk of gingival recession and increased probing depths.

Bisphosphonate Therapy and Orthodontics: Implications for Postmenopausal Women
Volume 56 : Number 3 : Page 175 : Mar 2022
Older women on bisphosphonate therapy are increasingly seeking orthodontic treatment. The authors review current evidence regarding the biological characteristics of postmenopausal women and the potential effects of BPs on tooth movement. Recommendations are provided for managing such patients.

Multidisciplinary Management of Double-Tooth Anomalies
Volume 43 : Number 7 : Page 0 : Jul 2009
A double tooth is a congenital anomaly in which two adjacent teeth are joined at the crown level (enamel and dentin), forming a single tooth with an enlarged crown.1 Although the cause is unknown, gen...

Dual Action Vertical Intra-Arch Technique
Volume 56 : Number 11 : Page 666 : Nov 2022
The DAVIT device, introduced here by Dr. Barros and colleagues, simultaneously intrudes the posterior teeth and extrudes the anterior teeth for open-bite correction, using bracket-head mini-implants as anchorage. Advantages over other nonsurgical techniques are illustrated with a case report.

Volume 57 : Number 9 : Page 522 : Sep 2023
Retromolar miniscrews are used to anchor en masse mandibular distalization in hyperdivergent Class III treatment. The lower third molars are extracted to provide space for the miniscrews and the distal movement, while various measures are taken to prevent anterior torque loss.
