Introduction
• Orthodontic treatment prior to and after surgical
correction of malocclusion is considered vital to
the stability of the achieved result
• Pre surgical orthodontics helps the oral surgeon
to align the skeletal bases on the operating
table

Review
• Bracket systems
• First generation

Andrews

1972

• Second generation Ronald Roth

1980’s

• Third generation

1990’s

Slot dimension
• .022 versus .018
• The slot dimension preferred and widely used
by the orthodontist for a surgical case is .022
slot, the stability is better as it allows the use of
stiffer wires.

Tip
• Inbuilt tip VS expressed tip
• Inbuilt tip - The tip built into the bracket
• Expressed tip – on insertion of wire – the
change in the mesio distal inclination of tooth
• The effect of the inbuilt tip and expressed tip on
the mesiodistal inclination of teeth is very
minimal.

Torque
• Inbuilt torque and expressed torque
• loss of torque – cardinal rule

For every 0.001” play there
is loss of 40 loss of torque

PAE is highly inefficient in regaining
lost torque

Decompensation
Skeletal mal- relationship
Teeth compensate to mask the skeletal
discrepancy
Pre- surgical orthodontics
Eliminate the dental compensation that has
occurred with respect to the skeletal base

Class II decompensation
 Objectives
 Co-ordinate the arches in transverse dimension
Leveling
Class II molar and canine relation ship
Obtain sufficient over jet

 Treatment plan
 Mechanotherapy
 Anchorage preparation

Class III decompensation
• Objectives
– To coordinate the arches in transverse
dimension
– Leveling
– Class III molar and canine relationship
– Reverse overjet&

• Treatment plan
• Mechanotherapy
• Anchorage preparation

Anterior segmental osteotomy
• Objectives
– Coordinate arches in the transverse dimension
– Leveling
– Divergence of roots at the planned osteotomy
site

• Treatment plan
• Mechanotherapy
• Anchorage preparation

Segmental /Continuous
mechanics
• Segmental mechanics are more Bioefficient
with less adverse effects
• Statically determinate system – thus possible
to know the exact amount of forces and
moments in the system
• Though continuous mechanics is a statically
indeterminate system, it has been widely
preferred by the orthodontist due to the easy
cookbook approach.

Creating step at osteotomy site
• Aligning by a segmental approach at the
osteotomy site – most beneficial
• Altering the height of the bracket positioning to
achieve the extrusion of the to be intruded
segment
• Use of a stainless steel or a TMA spring to
create a step at the osteotomy site which TMA
is preferable
– Achieve stabilization of posterior segment with
stainless arch wire
– Insert the spring into the auxiliary tube

Problems in finishing
• Tip
• Torque
• Mesio distal diameter (Bolton’s ratio)
• Curve of spee


Ideal finish
•Consistency
•Accuracy
•Predictability
•Convenience

Conclusion
• Learn to appreciate the concept of inbuilt tip
and torque versus expressed tip and torque
• Develop individual orthodontic sense instead of
blindly following prescription and bracket
systems
• Having a thorough knowledge of biomechanics
involved will help the orthodontist to supplement
any deficiency present in the system that is
being used
