RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: The mechanics of double key loop (DKL) are not well defined, and this finite element study was designed to explore its force system. METHODS: A simplified 3-dimensional finite element model of single and double key loops with an archwire between the lateral incisor and second premolar was established in Ansys Workbench 17.0. Activation in Type-1 (retraction at the distal end), Type-2 (retraction at the distal key) and Type-3 (Type-2 plus ligation between keys) was simulated. The vertical force, load/deflection ratio and moment/force ratio of stainless-steel and titanium-molybdenum alloy (TMA) loops were calculated and compared. RESULTS: The double key loop generated approximately 40% of the force of a single key loop. Type-2 loading of DKL showed a higher L/D ratio than Type-1 loading with a similar M/F ratio. Type-3 loading of DKL showed the highest M/F ratio with a similar L/D ratio as single key loop. The M/F ratio in Type-3 loading increased with the decreasing of retraction force. The DKL of TMA produced approximately 40% of the force and moment compared with those of SS in all loading types. When activated at equal distances below 1 mm, the M/F ratios of SS and TMA DKL with equal preactivation angles were almost the same. CONCLUSION: The M/F ratio on anterior teeth increases with the preactivation angle and deactivation of DKL. The M/F ratio at a certain distance of activation mainly depends on the preactivation angle instead of the wire material. TMA is recommended as a substitute for SS in DKL for a lower magnitude of force.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the biomechanics of J-hook headgear in En mass intrusion and retraction of maxillary anterior teeth and provide guidance for clinical treatment. METHODS: A three-dimensional finite element model of maxillary teeth, periodontium, straight wire appliance and maxillary bone was established in ANSYS 14.0. En mass retraction of anterior teeth with force of 1.5 N through J-hook headgear was stimulated. Force was applied mesial to lateral incisor in group A and distal to lateral incisor in group B. The force direction was 30° to the sagittal plane and 20° to 60° to the occlusal plane. Force direction to the occlusal plane was changed every 5° and 18 cases were calculated. Displacement of upper anterior teeth and stress distribution in the periodontium were analyzed. RESULTS: As the degrees of force direction to the occlusal plane increased, the moving pattern of upper anterior teeth changed from clockwise rotation (lingual movement with intrusion) to bodily retraction and intrusion, and counter- clockwise rotation (intrusion with labial movement). With the force direction of 35° to occlusal plane applied mesial to lateral incisor or force direction of 45° to the occlusal plane applied distal to lateral incisor, bodily movement of upper anterior teeth without rotation was achieved. CONCLUSIONS: Placement of J-hook mesial to lateral incisor enable orthodontists to maintain better en mass intrusion and retraction of upper anterior teeth. The direction of J-hook should be adjusted according to individual condition and treatment objective.

RESUMEN

PURPOSE: To investigate condylar position and condylar symmetry in patients with temporomandibular disorders (TMD) as well as malocclusion. METHODS: Fifteen patients with TMD and malocclusion were selected for the experiment, 15 asymptomatic patients served as controls. The bilateral temporomandibular joints of all subjects were evaluated by computed tomography (CT) imaging. Both the joint spaces and the condylar symmetry were determined, based on the axial CT images properly chose. All statistical analysis were performed using SPSS17.0 software package. RESULTS: The condyle of the patients in the experimental group were seated more posteriorly, while slight anterior condylar position were found in the control group. In the experimental group, the horizontal angle of the condyle in the symptomatic side was larger than that in the asymptomatic side (P<0.05), while the vertical angle was just opposite (P<0.05). No statistically significant asymmetries were found in the mediolateral diameter,the anteroposterior diameter, the angle of condylar axis, the distance between condylar center to midsagittal plane and anteroposterior difference of condyle center. CONCLUSION: Obvious posterior condylar position and vertical asymmetry exist in patients with temporomandibular disorders.

RESUMEN

PURPOSE: To investigate the location of center of resistance(CRe) of six upper anterior teeth. METHODS: A three-dimensional finite element model of premaxillary bone and anterior teeth was established in ANSYS 8.1 software. Anterior teeth were fixed with stainless archwire of 2 mm × 2 mm. A horizontal retraction force of 150 g was applied bilaterally to the segment through hooks of 2 to 14 mm. After loading, solution was done and displacement and maximum principle stress were calculated. RESULTS: Displacement and stress distribution of anterior teeth varied according to the increase of height of horizontal retraction force. Labiolingual displacement of incisors varied from crown lingual tipping to lingual translation and lingual controlling root movement, while canine mainly showed lingual crown tipping. The displacements of teeth increased with the length of hook but their moving tendency remained unchanged. Stress distribution in PDL was in accordance with direction and magnitude of teeth displacement. In all cases, lingual displacement and stress in PDL were most homogeneous when hook was 10 mm long. CONCLUSION: The results of this study suggest that perpendicular location of center of resistance of six upper anterior teeth is about 14 mm gingivally to incisal edge of central incisor.

RESUMEN

PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to investigate the factors relating to root resorption after orthodontic treatment in teenage patients. METHODS: seventy eight teenage patients treated with fixed orthodontic appliances were selected for this study. Root resorption scores of the upper incisors were recorded qualitatively according to their apical root morphology in the panoramic radiographs before and after treatment. All subjects were grouped according to age, gender, tooth location, occlusion stage, extraction or nonextraction approach and treatment duration. Nonparametric tests was used for statistical analysis with SPSS12.0 software package. RESULTS: All patients presented root resorption of different degrees. The results showed that there was significant difference before and after occlusion establishment of the second molar (P<0.01), but no difference between different age groups; Root resorption in extraction group was more severe than in non-extraction group (P<0.01); Root resorption in extraction group was more severe in patients with longer treatment duration (P<0.05). There was no significant difference between different genders and different teeth locations. CONCLUSION: The results suggest that orthodontic treatment before occlusion establishment of the second molar, nonextraction approach and shorter treatment duration lead to less root resorption.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: To study the coordination of facial soft tissue in Angle's Class I, II1, III malocclusion, providing reference for the clinical practice. METHODS: 60 lateral cephalometric radiographs of three classes of Angle's malocclusion were included. 13 measurements were analyzed by SPSS 10.0. RESULTS: Protrusion of the upper and lower lips increased in Angle's II1 comparing with Angle's I and protrusion of the upper lip was larger than the lower lip, no difference was found in the facial convexity. Increase of upper lip inclination and underdevelopment of maxillary in Angle's III comparing with Angle's I. No significant different was found in the form of lower lip, soft tissue facial angle and Z angle. Comparing Angle's II1 with Angle's III, every measurements were significantly different except upper lip inclination, nasolabial angle, representing the formation mechanism of malocclusion. CONCLUSION: Some differences were found in form and position of lip in three classes of Angle's malocclusion. However, the deformity was not obvious in Angle's II1 and Angle's III because of compensation mechanism. Nasolabial angle only reflected change of upper lip, but could not reflect characters of facial profile.
