ABSTRACT
Objective To realize the extra-oral measurement of initial recovery force produced by orthodontic wire using simulated dental model. Methods A clinical patient was selected as the study objective, and maxillary dental models, which were in accordance with the real dentition of patient, were fabricated by three-dimensional printing. An orthodontic force measuring system was constructed using Nano17 F/T mechanical sensors to measure the initial recovery forces on two maxillary central incisors, which were produced by a standard circle Ni-Ti wire with the diameter of 355.6 μm after the archwire was assembled on the dental model. Results Central incisor 21 suffered a lager initial orthodontic force compared with incisor 11, and the force systems on two incisors were both adverse to tooth ideal movement, therefore, an assistive device was necessary to improve force status of the teeth. When the orthodontic treatment plan was optimized, a satisfactory result was obtained after 18 months of treatment. Conclusions Force systems caused by orthodontic wire and exerted on the teeth could be accurately measured using the simulated dental model of patient, so as to predict the teeth moving type, and improve teeth treatment plan on this basis. The extra-oral measuring technique of orthodontic force provides an important reference for clinical orthodontic treatment, and creates a novel idea for the optimal design of orthodontic plan.
