[Orthodontic correction of malpositioned teeth before restorative treatment: efficiency improvement using Temporary Anchorage Devices (TADs)]. / Déplacements orthodontiques pré-prothétiques : vers une meilleure efficacité en utilisant des ancrages osseux temporaires (TADs).

INTRODUCTION: Orthodontic treatment is a fundamental tool when approaching in a multidisciplinary manner a prosthetic rehabilitation, thanks to the possibility to place in an ideal position the involved teeth and to improve or even correct any periodontal defects. Several orthodontic tricks and version have been developed to limit as much as possible orthodontic appliances extension and treatment duration. However, it is not always easy to control teeth movements and manage anchorage when only few teeth are involved. Furthermore, treatment duration can increase due to the need to apply light forces and to correct adverse dental movements that eventually could appear. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Different clinical cases are presented. RESULTS: These exemples illustrate how, with the addition of the TADs in clinical practice, the biomechanics of the multidisciplinary treatment can be simplified, the result becomes highly predictable and the treatment time can often be reduced.
