ORTHODONTICS Procedures:
1. Patient and parent education
Prepared by: Danna Marie Lantin, DMD, MSCD 2. Supervision of growth and development
3. Caries Control
Unfavorable sequelae of malocclusion 4. Elimination of oral habits
• Poor facial appearance 5. Space Maintenance
• Risk of caries
• Predisposition to periodontal diseases 1. Patient and Parent Education
• Psychological Disturbances
• Risk of trauma Aim: Increase dental awareness
• Abnormalities of Function Begins before birth:
• TMJ dysfunction • Infections
• Teratogens
Aims of orthodontic treatment • proper nutrition
Jackson’s triad: After birth:
1. Functional Efficiency • Proper Brushing technique
2. Structural Balance: • Breast feeding? Bottle Feeding?
• Dentoalveolar system
• Skeletal Tissue 2. Supervision of Growth and Development
• Soft Tissue including Musculature
Visit the dentist as soon as the 1st tooth comes out.
3. Esthetic Harmony
The dentist should:
• Check what is “normal”
Scope of Orthodontic Treatment
• Age and Sequence of eruption
3 main tissue systems:
• Dentition
• Skeleton Permanent Teeth
• Facial and jaw Musculature Sequence:
Maxillary: 61245378 or 61243578
Orthodontic changes due to Mandibular: 61234578 or 61243578
• Alteration in tooth position
• Alteration in skeletal pattern Age of eruption
• Alteration in soft tissue pattern Maxillary

Sequence:
Maxillary: ABDCE
Preventive Orthodontics Mandibular: ABCDE
Characteristics of a deciduous dentition
• Flush Terminal Plane Age of eruption
• Generalized spacings on anterior teeth Maxillary: a:7.5 b:9 c: 19 d: 14 e: 24
• Tight contacts on posterior teeth Mandibular: a: 6 b: 7 c: 16 d: 12 e:20
• Minimal OJ and OB
• Primate spaces • Less than or equal to 3 months
difference in contralateral side
Characteristics of a mixed dentition exfoliation and shedding
• Early Mesial shift • Eruption should be 3-6 months after
• Late Mesial shift: leeway space exfoliation
• Mesial inclination of the roots of 1 and 2 • Delayed eruption:
• Mild Crowding of antertior teeth Check for presence of:
• Over retained deciduous
teeth/roots

5% Sodium Flouride • Posterior crossbite
• Labial flaring and spacings of the lower

• Anterior open Bite
4. Elimination of oral habits • Proclined anterior teeth
• Posterior crossbite
3 approaches to eliminate oral habits:
Appliance:
• Reminder Therapy
• Lingual Pearl
• Reward Therapy • Palatal crib or tongue reminder
• Appliance Therapy • Tongue rake
Factors which will determine severity of malocclusion
due to habits Lip Sucking/Lip Biting
• Duration Effect:
• Increased Ovejet
• Frequency
• Labial flaring of maxillary anterior teeth
• Intensity
• Lingual tipping of lower anterior teeth
Prolonged Thumb Sucking Appliance:

• Labial Flaring and spacings of maxillary
anteriors
• Lingual tipping of lower incisors 5. Space Manitenance
• Increased Overjet Indications:
• Anterior Open Bite
• When e’s are lost before eruption of 5’s
• Narrow Maxillary Arch = Posterior • When e’s are lost before eruption of 6’s
crossbite
• Early loss of d’s
• Appliance:
• Congenital missing 5’s when planned for
• Palatal Crib

Mouth Breathing • Early loss of primary anterior teeth
Types
• Early loss of 6’s before eruption of 7s
• Obstructive
• When there is loss of space and minor amount
• Habitual

• Anatomic
Change that happens during mouth breathing
