ABSTRACT
INTRODUCTION:
The objectives of this study were to simulate long-term orthodontic tooth movement in en-masse retraction using the finite element method and investigate the effects of power arms on tooth movements when using a lingual appliance in comparison with a labial appliance.METHODS:
A 3-dimensional finite element model of the maxillary dentition was constructed with 0.018-in brackets and 0.016 × 0.022-in stainless steel archwire. An en-masse retraction was performed by applying retraction force at various lengths of the power arm (4, 6, 8, and 10 mm) to the second molar tube, and long-term tooth movements with the lingual and labial appliances were analyzed using the finite element method.RESULTS:
Although lingual crown tipping of the incisor was more marked with the lingual appliance than with the labial appliance in the early phase of space closure, only a slight difference was evident after space closure. Although the power arm was effective for achieving better-controlled tooth movement and reducing vertical and transverse bowing effects, bodily movement of the incisor could not be achieved, and bowing effects could not be eliminated.CONCLUSIONS:
To provide better torque control of the incisor or prevent a vertical bowing effect, the incorporation of extra torque into brackets of incisors was recommended, and the use of power arms for the lingual appliance. To prevent a transverse bowing effect, incorporation of the antibowing bend or application of retraction force from both buccal and lingual sides or temporary skeletal anchorage devices was recommended.
