8. KEY POINTS IN LEVELING & ALIGNING
Forces should be kept as light as possible.
Sagittal, vertical & lateral anchorage needs should
be identified for each case.
Lacebacks & bend backs to be used in the initial stages
to avoid unwanted tooth movements.
Posterior segments should supported with a head gear/ TPA
in maximum anchorage cases.

10. ALIGNMENT OF SYMMEYRIC CROWDING
WITH EDGE WISE APPLIANCE.
The flat load deflection curve of super elastic Niti makes ideal
for initial alignment when the degree of crowding is similar on
two sides of arch.

3.DIASTEMA CLOSURE
Maxillary midline diastema is complicated by insertion of
labial frenum into a notch in the alveolar bone.
Mild midline diastema is closed before frenectomy.
Large midline diastema partially closed before frenectomy and
completely closed after surgery.
Delay in orthodontic treatment after surgery results in scar
formation.

20. DEEP BITE
CORRECTION OF DEEP BITE
•ERUPTION/EXTRUTION OF POSTERIORS
•DISTAL TIPPING OF POSTERIOR TEETH
•PROCLINATION OF INCISORS
•INTRUSION OF INCISORS
•A COMBINATION OF ABOVE

24. PROCLINATION OF UPPER AND
LOWER ANTERIORS
Indication:
This can be done only if the
soft tissue profile permits it or
in cases with retroclined
anteriors.
Methods:
Not using lacebacks and bend
backs.
Use of open coil spring
between retroclined teeth and
posterior teeth.

EARLY MANAGEMENT
MANAGEMENT DURING FULL ORTHODONTIC
TREATMENT
This patient had an asymmetrical dental anterior open bite, which was related
to right thumb sucking activity. Anterior open bites of this type are often not difficult
to correct, provided the digit sucking is discontinued.

33. ANCHORAGE CONTROL IN THE PRE ADJUSTED EDGEWISE
APPLIANCE
BENNET AND McLAUGHLIN CONSIDER ANCHORAGE
IN THREE PLANES OF SPACE
1. HORIZANTAL ANCHORAGE
2. VERTICAL ANCHORAGE
3. TRANSVERSE ANCHORAGE
ANCHORAGE IS CLASSIFIED AS
1. EXTRA ORAL-HEADGEAR AND FACE MASK
2. INTRA ORAL-LACE BACK, TPA, LINGUAl ARCH.
LIP BUMPER etc.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
34. EXTRA ORAL ANCHORAGE
CLASSIFICATION OF HEAD GEARS
1. ACCORDING TO POINT OF ORIGIN
•CERVICAL-ANCHORAGE FROM NAPE OF NECK
•OCCIPITAL-ANCHORAGE FROM BACK OF HEAD
•PARIETAL-ANCHORAGE FROM UPPER PART OF HEAD
2. HIGH PULL HEAD GEAR

Laceback
The work of Robinson confirms that lower canine lacebacks have a beneficial
effect in controlling proclination of lower incisors. Without lacebacks, on average the
lower incisor moved forwards 1.4 mm. In contrast, with lacebacks in place, the lower
incisors moved 1.0 mm distally.

2.VERTICAL CONTROL OF MOLAR SEGMENT
•TPA
•POSTERIOR BITE BLOCK
•HEAD GEAR
www.indiandentalacademy.com
45. CONTROL OF ANCHORAGE IN VERTICAL PLANE
VERTICAL CONTROL OF ANTERIOR SEGMENT
The tip which is built into the anterior brackets of the preadjusted appliance
system gives a tendency to temporary increases in overbite early in treatment. If the
canines are distally tipped in the starting malocclusion, then the bite-deepening effect
is greater.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
46. CONTROL OF ANCHORAGE IN VERTICAL PLANE
VERTICAL CONTROL OF ANTERIOR SEGMENT
High labial canines may be loosely tied to the .015 multistrand or .016
HANT wire in the early stages of treatment. If the starting archwire is fully engaged
in the canine bracket slot, it can produce unwanted tooth movements in the adjacent
www.indiandentalacademy.com
lateral incisor and premolar regions.
47. CONTROL OF ANCHORAGE IN VERTICAL PLANE
VERTICAL CONTROL OF MOLAR SEGMENT
If the upper palatal bar is placed 2 mm away from the palate, tongue forces
can assist in vertical control of the molars.

48. ANCHORAGE CONTROL IN TRANSVERSE PLANE
MAINTAINING EXPANSION PROCEDURE
MAINTAINING INTER CANINE WIDTH
Ideal
arch form
Expanded
archwire
Upper molar expansion should be carried out by bodily movement rather than
tipping. Minimal molar crossbites can be corrected using rectangular steel wires which
www.indiandentalacademy.com
are slightly expanded from the normal form and which carry buccal root torque.
49. RE LEVELING PROCEDURES
NEWLY ERUPTED TOOTH
IMPROPER BRACKET PLACEMENT
BANDING OF SECOND MOLAR
