Multi-slotted lingual bracket: Tandem arch wire technique Author: Ryoon-Ki Hong, DDS, PhD

Abstract Since the advent of lingual brackets by Fujita in 1979, many lingual brackets have been developed. Most available lingual brackets are single-slotted, which have either lingually opening or occlusally opening slots. Lingually opening slots have advantages for some types of tooth movement and disadvantages for other types of tooth movement. It is same for other brackets with single occlusally opening slot. Because multi-slotted lingual brackets such as Fujita lingual bracket and Anboini have both lingually opening and occlusally opening slots, they make use of tandem arch wire techniques, in which two arch wires are engaged simultaneously in both occlusally and lingually opening slots. These advanced techniques not only prevent undesirable reaction forces from becoming manifest, but also make treatment simple and efficient for both the clinician and patient. Key Words: multi-slotted lingual bracket, lingually opening slot, occlusally opening slot, Tandem Arch Wire Technique.

Introduction With the invention of the resin bonding system, lingual brackets were first developed by Fujita in 1979.1,2 The occlusally opening slot was installed on the Fujita bracket in order to facilitate insertion and removal of the orthodontic wire. Soon after, Kurz et al introduced their lingual brackets in 1982, which have an 0.018×0.025-inch lingually opening slot like labial bracket.3 Creekmore published his bracket designs and related clinical findings in 1989.4 The foundation of the design is the opening of the arch wire slots to the occlusal aspect rather than to the lingual aspect. The slot size of the bracket is 0.016-inch horizontally and 0.022-inch vertically. Many lingual brackets have been developed thereafter. Scuzzo and Takemoto introduced STb, which has a lingually opening 0.018×0.025-inch slot.5 Selfligating lingual brackets such as Clippy-L and Evolution were introduced, which have lingually opening 0.018×0.025-inch slot and occlusally opening 0.018×0.025-inch slot, respectively. Due to recent developments in CAD/CAM software, individually customized lingual brackets such as Incognito6 and Harmony have been developed. Anterior Incognito bracket has an occlusally opening 0.025×0.018-inch slot and posterior Incognito bracket has a lingually opening 0.025×0.018-inch slot. Harmony bracket has a lingually opening slot in the form of self-ligation, in which slot size can be made as we request.

4

More recently, Scuzzo and Takemoto introduced selfligating STb, which has an occlusally opening slot.7 The size of the occlusally opening slot is 0.018×0.018inch square, not rectangular. They suggested that the square slot is more effective than rectangular slot in correcting rotation. Furthermore, with occlusally opening slot bracket, the arch wire is prevented from disengaging during retraction, resulting in minimal loss of torque and better control. Most available lingual brackets are single-slotted and each bracket system has its unique design. Some brackets such as Kurz, STb, Clippy-L and Harmony have a lingually opening slot and other brackets such as Evolution and self-ligating STb have an occlusally opening slot. Incognito has both occlusally opening and lingually opening slots, which are installed in anterior and posterior brackets, respectively. Lingually opening slots have advantages for some types of tooth movement and disadvantages for other types of tooth movement.8 It is same for other brackets with single occlusally opening slot. Because multi-slotted lingual brackets such as Fujita lingual bracket and Anboini have both lingually opening and occlusally opening slots, they make use of tandem arch wire technique, in which two arch wires are engaged simultaneously in both occlusally and lingually opening slots. In this article, applications of tandem arch wire techniques will be discussed for alignment, leveling, space closure, and finishing. Occlusally opening slot will be called vertical slot and lingually opening slot, called horizontal slot.


Lingual Orthodontic Journal

Fig. 1. An example of the tandem arch wire technique used during alignment.For space regaining, a 0.016-inch stainless steel mushroom arch wire (016 SS-MAW) was engaged in the maxillary horizontal slots to begin partial retraction of the canines and lateral incisors with elastic thread (ET). After partial retraction, a 0.012-inch nickel titanium segmental arch wire (012 NT-SEG) was engaged in the vertical slots from canine to canine to correct the protruded central incisors. With this tandem wire system, active alignment of the protruded maxillary central incisors was achieved simply by means of the light flexible 0.012-inch nickel titanium segment, and any undesirable reaction forces that would otherwise have been generated (specifically, anterior flaring) were contained by the rigid 0.016-inch stainless steel mushroom arch wire. A. During partial retraction of the canines. B. After gaining sufficient space to align the protruded maxillary central incisors. C. After correction of the protruded maxillary central incisors.

Tandem Arch wire Technique during Alignment Because inter-bracket distance is relatively smaller from the lingual aspect, as contrasted with the labial, it may not be possible to bond all brackets to their most appropriate positions even in cases of mild crowding. In these cases, neighboring teeth may sometimes be retracted to regain space prior to bonding of the more crowded teeth. If the tandem arch wire technique is used at this point, crowding can be solved in a more effective and simpler way. Anchorage complications may also become nullified. Figure 1 shows a case treated with the tandem arch wire technique for the correction of protruded maxillary central incisors. The mushroom arch wire was engaged in the horizontal slots to partially retract the canines and lateral incisors. After the space was regained, a light segmental arch wire was engaged in the vertical slots of the six anterior teeth, without re-

moving the existing mushroom arch wire within the horizontal slots. With this tandem arch wire method (specifically with the main, stronger, mushroom arch wire engaged in the horizontal slots and the more flexible segmental arch wire simultaneously ligated into the vertical slots), the protruded maxillary central incisors were simply and effectively corrected without side effects. It is important to note that a single arch wire might likely have caused flaring of the upper anterior segment as a whole, with attendant strains on posterior anchorage and increased treatment time.

Tandem Arch wire Technique during Leveling In lingual orthodontic treatment, unlike with labial treatment, anterior intrusive forces pass through or close to the collective center of resistance of the anterior teeth; thus, anterior intrusion tends to be

5


Dental Tribuna Books executed more simply and favorably.2 Various techniques for intrusion of mandibular anterior teeth that exploit these advantages have been introduced.9,10 Among these techniques, modified intrusion mechanics10 derived from Burstone’s segmented arch technique can be applied in a straightforward manner to lingual orthodontic treatment, thanks to the availability of the extra outer horizontal slot within each mandibular first molar bracket. The patient in Figure 2 presented with upper peg lateral incisors and spacing. After the spaces were consolidated, resin crown build-ups were planned for the lateral incisors. Furthermore, although the overbite was not excessive, interferences between the maxillary anterior lingual brackets and mandi-

bular anterior teeth were anticipated. Orthodontic brackets were therefore bonded first onto the mandibular teeth, and later onto the maxillary teeth only after mandibular anterior intrusion had been established. For intrusion of the six mandibular anterior teeth, 0.018×0.018-inch stainless steel segmental arch wires were engaged in the vertical slots of the anterior and posterior teeth. 0.017×0.025-inch titaniummolybdenum alloy (TMA) bilateral intrusive springs were engaged simultaneously in the inner horizontal slots of the mandibular first molar brackets, and activated by connection to the anterior segmental arch wire between the lateral incisors and canines (Fig. 2C). By using the tandem arch wire technique (ie.

Fig. 2. An example of the tandem arch wire technique used during leveling. To intrude the six mandibular anterior teeth, 0.016×0.016-inch stainless steel segmental arch wires (016×016 SS-SEG) were engaged in the vertical slots of the anterior and posterior teeth bilaterally, and 0.017×0.025-inch TMA intrusion springs (017×025 TMA-IS) were engaged in the inner horizontal slots of the mandibular first molar brackets, with the active spring ends hooked between the lateral incisors and canines of the anterior segmental arch wire. By using this variation of the tandem arch wire technique (i.e. segmental arch wires in the anterior vertical slots and intrusive springs in the posterior horizontal slots simultaneously), the six mandibular anterior teeth were simply and effectively intruded without side effects.

To intrude the six mandibular anterior teeth, 0.016×0.016-inch segmental arch wires (016×016 SS-SEG) were engaged in the vertical slots of the anterior and posterior teeth respectively, and 0.017×0.025-inch TMA intrusion springs (017×025 TMA-IS) were engaged in the inner horizontal slots of the mandibular first molar brackets, with the active ends hooked to the anterior segmental arch wire between the lateral incisors and canines.

The Tandem Arch wire Technique for Space Closure Lingual patients make consistently strong demands that a high quality of esthetic appearance will be maintained throughout their treatment. This prerequisite means that, in addition to the use of invisible braces, spaces between lateral incisors and canines at any time during treatment must be avoided. Therefore, where necessary owing to premolar extractions, the anterior segment is retracted en masse in lingual orthodontic treatment. If the arch wire is engaged in horizontal slots for anterior retraction, the arch wire may slip from the slots and anterior torque control or rotation control can end in fail. On the contrary, if the retraction arch wire is engaged in vertical slots, canines are tipped into extraction space and a vertical bowing side effect is produced. To prevent these side effects during anterior retraction, retraction arch wire is engaged in the horizontal slot and simultaneously 0.018×0.018-inch stainless steel segmental arch wire is engaged in the vertical slot of 6 anterior teeth (Fig. 3). This tandem arch wire technique is routinely applied during anterior retraction. With this tandem technique, anterior torque, rotation, and tipping are easily controlled during retraction.11

The Tandem Arch wire Technique for Final Detailing Lingual brackets must be narrower than corresponding labial brackets. As a result, it is difficult to achieve angulation control. To control the mesiodistal angulation of a tooth, it is recommended to insert an uprighting spring in the accessory slot because the angulation of teeth is not controlled effectively with narrow vertical or horizontal slots. Uprighting springs can be used for angulation control of single or multiple teeth (Figs 4 and 5). The unilateral uprighting spring is used for angulation control of single tooth. It can be inserted either occlusally or gingivally, depending on the direction of angulation correction. Similarly, multiple unilateral uprighting springs can be used simultaneously for angulation control of multiple teeth. For angulation control, the uprighting spring is simply made and inserted in the

For en masse retraction, an 0.016×0.022-inch stainless steel closing straight arch wire (016×022 SS-CSA) was engaged in the upper horizontal slots, and an 0.018×0.018inch stainless steel segmental arch wire (018×018 SS-SEG) was placed into the vertical slots of the anterior teeth. By using the tandem arch wire technique in this way, space closure via sliding mechanics can be carried out effectively and without vertical bowing side effects at the extraction sites.

accessory slot without removing the existing arch wire and making a new arch wire.

Conclusion Now, lingual orthodontics becomes “must know” field in orthodontic treatment. However, it is not easy to treat malocclusion with lingual bracket because lingually-applied orthodontic forces produce different tooth movement from labialy-applied forces. Narrow width of lingual bracket is also one of the important reasons why lingual orthodontic treatment is difficult. Narrow lingual brackets with single horizontal or vertical slot have limits to achieve desirable results. Using tandem arch wire techniques, multislotted lingual bracket overcomes the disadvantages of narrow lingual brackets in lingual orthodontics. These advanced techniques not only prevent undesirable reaction forces from becoming manifest, but also make treatment simple and efficient for both the clinician and patient.

Comparison of perception experienced by patients treated with conventional and lingual orthodontics Authors: Carla Maria Melleiro Gimenez Marcelo Marigo Rita de CĂĄssia Baratela Thurler Luis Fernando Eto

Abstract Objetives: To compare the perception experienced by patients treated with labial and with lingual orthodontics. Methods: Seventy adult patients (both genders), 35 treated with labial and 35 with lingual technique, answered a questionnaire regarding main reasons for adhesion; aesthetical and functional importance; contribution of the treatment, its advantages, satisfaction and potential indications. All of them had the brackets bonded for 6 months or more. Statistical analysis was Q2 Test (significance level 5%). Results: Findings indicated significant influence by treatment type for: reasons, contribution and improvements of the treatment. Functional importance and high satisfaction level were more related to lingual technique. The disadvantages reported by patients were: high cost for lingual technique and discomfort for labial technique. Conclusions: Some paradigms regarding lingual treatment are not true. The aesthetics and fast results were important factors for both techniques and the lingual patients showed more treatment valorization and satisfaction. Key Words: Lingual Orthodontics, Orthodontics, Aesthetics, Treatment Perception.

Introduction Nowadays the adult patients are more and more interested in the orthodontic treatments, representing considerable percentage of the market. However, most of the time a negative reaction is noted in relation to the conventional appliances, because these patients have an aesthetic preference and do not accept to show the braces during treatment time. Caniklioglu C, OztĂźrk Y, 2005. In general, the adults are motivated due to the possibility of improving their smile and facial aesthetics. Therefore, the orthodontic appliance cannot interfere with their self-image, being an inconvenient for the appearance and quality of life. Wu AK, McGrath C, Wong RW, Wiechmann D, Rabie AB, 2010. In this context, the lingual orthodontics technique presents a viable option, in a way to keep the aesthetic and biomechanical efficiency. The aesthetics is perfect because braces are bonded to the inner sur-

12

face of the teeth where nobody can see them. In this way, the orthodontic treatment is carried out with discretion and in secret. On the other hand, the biomechanics takes the advantage of the proximity of the brackets to the resistance center, providing controlled and easier teeth displacement. (Miyawaki S, Yasuhara M, Koh Y, 1999; Brosh T, Strouthou S, Sarne O, 2005; Wu AK, McGrath C, Wong RW, Wiechmann D, Rabie AB, 2010.). There are many questions and myths regarding lingual orthodontics, especially in relation to the patient’s adaptation, comfort and satisfaction level. In this context, the aim of this study was to compare the perception experienced by patients treated with lingual and conventional appliances.

Methods The sample was randomly selected, counting with 70 adult patients (both genders) from two private offices, being organized in two groups of 35 patients according to braces type: lingual and conventional


Lingual Orthodontic Journal appliances. These patients had conventional or lingual brackets bonded for a period of 6 months or more. A questionnaire was given to both groups (conventional and lingual braces), regarding the main reasons for choosing the specific orthodontic treatment adhesion; aesthetical priority; functional importance; treatment contribution, advantages and disadvantages, satisfaction, how they knew about treatment option and potential indications. The patients did not sign the questionnaire and they answered it in secret, in order to keep the real impression about the treatment, without any influence by orthodontists or staff. The chosen statistical analysis for data evaluation was Quiquadrado (Q2), with significance level at 5%.

Statistical Planning The fundamental objective of the conducted survey was to answer the question: will the answers to the options given item be influenced by the types of braces? As a consequence of this objective, the hypothesis to be tested statistically was that the answers to the options given item would not influenced by the types of braces or they would not depend on devices type. This hypothesis was put to the test from the Chi-square statistic (Q2) being the decision rule to establish its significance or was not set from p = P (Q2> Qo2) - the statistical probability that Q2 is larger than its value observed (Qo2) in the data sample in the following manner: if p was equal to or smaller than 0.05, the tested hypothesis was significant or rejected, and otherwise, if p is greater than 0.05, then the tested hypothesis was not significant or not rejected.

In table 5, it was found that the value of p = 0.178 was not significant, which indicated that the answers for the item “For you, which is the greatest advantage resulting from an orthodontic treatment?” were not related to the types of orthodontic treatment, therefore, the answers given to certain option did not depend on the type of braces. In table 6, it was found that the value of p = 0.001 was significant, which indicated that the responses for the item “What is a degree of your satisfaction with the orthodontic treatment?’ were linked to the types of treatment. In fact: • All the answers “very satisfied” were related to the use of lingual technique; • All the answers “not so satisfied” were related to the use of conventional braces and the answer “unsatisfied” had higher percentage of responses for conventional appliances.

• The answer “satisfied” was attributed to both conventional and lingual appliances, and they were statistically equal. In table 7, we obtained p = 0.314 which was not significant because it was greater than 0.05. Thus there was evidence sampling not to reject the hypothesis that the type of orthodontic appliance has induced or not a positive indication.. In table 8, it was found that the value of p = 0.086 was not significant, which indicated that the answers for the item “How did you hear about the techniques of conventional and lingual orthodontics?” were not linked to the types of orthodontic treatments, so responses attributed to particular option did not depend on the type of braces.

Lingual Orthodontic Journal orthodontic technique”, were linked to the types of treatments. In fact, “speech difficulties”, “high cost” and “masticatory difficulties” were reported as the greatest disadvantage for lingual treatment, while discomfort was related to the use of conventional braces as the biggest disadvantage, as well as hygiene.

Discussion Even with a positive expectations regarding lingual treatment, our results (tables 1-9) surprise us due to the evidence that it is a viable option for orthodontic treatment which brings an aesthetic solution and provides excellent results with a high level of satisfaction and good potential indications for new patients. The aesthetics was the chief compliant for both techniques (table 1) and it was reported as priority, very important or important for all patients (table 2) independently on the appliance choice. The aesthetics improvement reached by the treatment was reported more times for lingual orthodontics (table 4) and it was reported as the best advantage (table 5) of the orthodontic treatment, although both techniques presented almost equal results in providing it. The literature confirms our findings showing that more and more patients do not accept an unesthetic appliance which can interfere with their self image (Caniklioglu C, Oztürk Y, 2005.; Wu AK, McGrath C, Wong RW, Wiechmann D, Rabie AB, 2010). The level of comfort was reported when the questionnaire asked about masticatory adequacy (table 3) and about improvements reached with the treatment (table 4). About comfort, Wiechmann et al. (2008) showed that the more maxillary or mandibular retrusion, the more discomfort probability exists with lingual orthodontics technique. In addition, Stam; Hohoff; Ehmer, (2005) confirm that more comfort related to Incognito was reported in comparison with 7th generation braces, due to the size and profile of the analyzed brackets. Following the same investigation topic, Hohoff; Stam; Ehmer, (2004) reported positive adaptation of lingual orthodontics patients, with some differences related to lingual bracket positioning, tongue space deficiency (related to the bracket size and profile) which can provoke smaller lesions like aftae. The importance and necessity to provide information for patients, improving and facilitating the adaptation process has been evidenced. In our work, a high level of adaptation has been recorded in tables 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 9.

There is strong evidence that comfort increases with adaptation as the time passes. This is clinically evidenced and the literature also supports these findings (Hohoff et al. 2003). Table 9, which evidences the disadvantages, shows a big surprise: the main disadvantage reported by patients treated by lingual orthodontics was the high cost; while the main disadvantage reported by patients treated by conventional orthodontics was discomfort. The speech interference in the first period and trough adaptation time is an important disadvantage reported by lingual orthodontics patients. Table 9 as well as Hohoff et al. 2003, show the speech difference as well as a certain level of discomfort as important disadvantages. Having said that, it is also important to remember that the smaller lingual braces are, the smaller speech deficiency is reported. As far as the frequency is concerned, the initial discomfort related to lingual orthodontics is reported by 57% to 76% of patients (tongue pain, hygiene, T/S pronunciation, fibrous food), which is improved within the short period of time in 20-44% (Miyawaki; Yasuhara; Koh; 1999). In general, the adaptation occurs within 3-5 days; and it is also observed that better responses are related to patients with better perception and self-control (Sergl; Klager et Zentner, 1998). Although it is possible to have reports of pain in 4-24h after the bonding of lingual braces, there is no symtomatology after 7 days. In addition, according to both Ngan; Kess; Wilson; (1989) and to our data, there was no difference between sexes. A curious data is that adaptation response pattern to lingual treatment matches with the medical model, where anxious patients and patients with chronic pain report more discomfort and difficulties for adaptation (Firestone; Scheurer; Bürgin, 1999). In the Table 8, no difference between groups was recorded regarding the way they knew about the certain treatment option. Regarding this question, the most important was the recommendation of dentists and friends; followed by marketing to attract patients. In a panoramic view, our data showed a favorable context for lingual orthodontics, with positive points that indicate how viable and promising this technique is, and that there are many more questions to be studied yet.

Dental Tribuna Books Conclusions • The aesthetics and the fast results were important factors for both techniques. • Lingual patients showed more valorization of the treatment and high level of satisfaction; and they also recognized the functional importance. • Some paradigms regarding lingual treatment are not true (the most reported disadvantages were: high cost for lingual and discomfort for conventional appliances).

Fabrication of ideal lingual arch wire template with Accurate Bracket Positioner Authors: Pablo Echarri Martín Pedernera Miguel A. Pérez-Campoy

Abstract In this article, a laboratory procedure to determine the ideal arch wire shape in lingual orthodontic treatment using Accurate Bracket Positioner is explained. A photocopy of a model with bonded brackets, data obtained with Accurate Bracket Positioner, standard lingual arch template and a treatment plan are used to describe the procedure of customized template design. Keywords: Lingual Arch Wire ideal shape. Accurate Bracket Positioner.

Introduction Currently, in lingual orthodontic treatments, different ach wire shapes are used. Basically, they are: • Mushroom shape. • Christmas shape. • Lingual straight wire. • 2D customized arch wire. • 3D customized arch wire. The mushroom arch wire designed by Fujita1,2, is one of the most used shapes in lingual orthodontics. It has a distocanine bend to compensate the difference between the buccolingual thickness of a canine and bicuspid. The Christmas arch wire1-10 presents also a distocanine bend just like the mushroom arch wire, but it also has bends between the first and second bicuspid, as well as between the second bicuspid and the first molar to compensate different labio-lingual thicknesses of these teeth. The lingual straight wire proposed by Scuzzo and Takemoto11-13 doesn’t present any compensation bends, therefore, all the compensations are carried out through the bracket base customization. A 2D customized arch wire is carried out when the aim is to bond the brackets with as thin composite layer as possible to optimize the patient’s comfort. In this way, it is necessary to carry out first order bends in the arch wire to compensate different labio-lingual

thicknesses of the teeth. Both horizontal and vertical bends are carried out in this arch wire. In 3D customized arch wire, besides horizontal and vertical bends, torque bends are also carried out to compensate the bonding of the brackets. Hong and Kyung9 made a subdivision of a mushroom shape. There is a basic mushroom shape with a bend between the lateral incisor and a canine, between the canine and bicuspid, and between the bicuspid and the molar (Christmas arch wire) and there is a simplified mushroom shape, which has only a distocanine bend. Also, they describe a Plain Mushroom Archwire, which is flat, and a Step-down Bend Mushroom Archwire, which compensates the difference in bonding height between canines and bicuspids. This kind of a bend was also described by Echarri6,10. Hong and Kyung also describe a Reverse Curve Mushroom Archwire, with sagittal compensation curve9, a Space Closing Mushroom Archwire, which has closed “I” loop at the inner end of the distocanine bend, and an omega loop to mesial of the molar tube; a Modified Space Closing Mushroom Arch wire, with an “I” loop at the inner end of the distocanine inset, and a crimpable hook to distal of the closing loop or to mesial of a molar tube; and a Differential Mushroom Archwire, used in Detailing and Finishing phase, has vertical “I” loops and horizontal “L” loops. As far as the Reverse Curve Mushroom Archwire is concerned, numerous authors have described its increased Spee curve in upper arches and the rever-

Different ways to design an ideal arch wire 1. I n CLASS System Technique, set-up models are carried out, they are corrected and an ideal lingual arch wire is adapted over the corrected set-up model. After ligating the brackets to the ideal arch wire, and before bonding them to the model, the last arch wire adjustment is carried out3,10. 2. F illion4,5 designed a software for ideal lingual arch wire template design, called DALI (Dessin Arc Linguale Informatise) having in mind labio-lingual thickness of different teeth. 3. T homas Creekmore17 recommends the adaptation of lingual arch wire directly over the model when lingual brackets are already bonded on the model, using the Slot Machine. 4. S cuzzo and Takemoto11 mark the following references for lingual arch wires design:

a) Li point: it is the most prominent point of the lingual surface of the tooth. This point marks the horizontal position of lingual brackets.

b) Lingual Crown Height (LCH): Vertical dimension of each clinical crown.

c) Embrasure line: defined by Andrews. It joins all the contact points.

d) Lingual Straight Plane (LS Plane: The plane which joins vertical positions of the brac-

kets slots in posterior teeth and which extends to anterior teeth.

e) Bracket Height (H): The distance between the incisal edges and LS Plane.

5. For lingual arch wire fabrication using the Accurate Bracket Positioner (ABP) (Fig. 1), we use the modification of an arch wire fabrication with the Slot Machine, described by Echarri and Baca6.

Fabrication of ideal lingual arch wire with Accurate Bracket Positioner When the ABP is used to bond the lingual brackets on the model without carrying out the set-up model18-22, lingual brackets are positioned on the model orienting the slot according to the prescription indicated by an orthodontist. In this way, we achieve the prescription customization which can be resumed as the following scheme: • Height: Canine-to-canine brackets should be bonded at the same height. Bicuspids and molars of the same hemiarch should be at the same height, too. The distocanine inset is flat if it is possible to bond both anterior and posterior teeth at the same height. If this is not a case, the differences among these three segments should be compensated. • In-out, alignment: In-out should not be modified between the canines, except if the canines are too spherical. The difference between the canine and bicuspid thickness should be measured with the ABP, to establish the measures of the arch wire inset. If the difference between labio-lingual diameters of bicuspids and molars is not significant, it is possible to compensate it with the bonding. If this is not possible, this difference should be measured and compensated in the arch wire. In such cases, the inset is carried out in the finishing arch wire, but not in the working arch wire, in order to make the space closure possible (sliding mechanics). • Rotation: Usually, a 10-15% rotation overcorrection is included in brackets positioning. The objective is to complete the correction of the initial rotation by compensating the minimization of the arch wire force, and not the final overcorrected position. • Inclination: In canine distalization, the inclination increases for 3 mm to facilitate the root



Dental Tribuna Books movement. Bicuspids and molars are bonded in a usual way, although the anchorage loss is indicated, because root mesialization is obtained through the sagittal curve of the arch wire: the reverse Spee Curve in mandible, and the increased Spee Curve in maxilla. • Torque: The upper incisors torque is increased for 4º in cases in which the “en masse” retrusion of more than 3 mm is indicated, and it is reduced for 4º in cases in which the protrusion of more than 3 mm is necessary. If the lower incisors roots require protrusion, they are bonded with the -4º torque and in cases without the incisors protrusion, with -1º torque. These prescription modifications can be carried out with great precision using the ABP. The composite bracket base allows the customization of the brackets bonding according to the desired prescription and their adaptation to each tooth anatomy. The concept used to carry out this kind of customization has been already studied by different authors7,8,10,16. In lingual technique, the indirect bonding is a must because it is extremely hard to carry out a precise direct bonding; there is a great variety of lingual surfaces anatomy23-25 of the teeth, which can modify the bracket-enamel adjustment; the possibility to customize the prescription; as well as due to different incisor torque requirements26-30 according to the facial type and initial overjet. As Creekmore and Kunik established, the prescription individualization is carried out to compensate the mechanical defects of the straight arch wire technique: the arch wire “play” inside the slot, manufacturing tolerance, progressive reduction of the arch wire force as its deflection reduces, and the impossibility to apply the forces in the dental resistance center (Echarri10,31). The orthodontist should put these prescription modifications on record for the laboratory technician who positions the brackets on the model. The technician should put on record the parameters he uses to position the brackets, and he should photocopy the model with bonded brackets. It is convenient to carry out the first arch template before the fabrication of the transfer tray so you can check the adjustment of the arch wire. Later, if it is necessary to carry out a mini-tray for only one tooth to rebond the bracket, you should have the initial parameters so you can reproduce the positioning with precision.

24

Customized template design for ideal arch wire shape The necessary elements are: a) Occlusal photocopy of a model with bonded brackets. b) Standard lingual arch wire shape template. c) Treatment plan. d) ABP brackets positioning values table. e) Papel de acetato. The following templates are carried out: a) Working arch wire template. b) Finishing arch wire template. The difference between these templates is in posterior zone: the working arch wire is straight from the post-canine inset towards distal, to allow sliding of the arch wire. The finishing arch wire should compensate the differences in in-out and height that might exist between bicuspids and molars with bends; both arch wires are the same if bicuspids and molars can be bonded with the same parameters, and in this case the posterior sectors are straight6. It is also possible to carry out only one arch wire, but with differences in posterior teeth, when there is no need for sliding mechanics (non-extraction cases and without spacing) in cases in which the length of a dental arch remains the same. In such cases, 1st order bends can be incorporated into the arch wire (alignment/leveling) from the first arch wire.

Anterior arch wire zone design As it has been already said, the canine-to-canine section is straight, and for this, it is necessary that the incisors and canines brackets are bonded at the same height and alignment. Rotations and torques are also customized with bonding. When positioning the brackets in lingual technique the height is determined by the tooth height and by the cingulum shape (especially in canines). The ideal position of brackets is 2 mm from the incisal edge and 1 mm from the gingival margin. The height to which bicuspid and molars brackets are positioned depends on their clinical crown and it doesn’t have to be the same as in anterior sector, and it also can be different in right and in left posterior sector. If the


Lingual Orthodontic Journal bonding height is the same in all three sectors, the post-canine inset is at the same horizontal plane, and the arch wire can rest on a completely flat surface. On the other hand, this inset is also used to compensate any variations in height that might appear between the anterior and posterior sectors. Resuming: if vertical ABP readings in all three sectors are the same, the arch wire is flat. The distocanine inset has a vertical step whose size is equal to the difference between the bonding height parameters of the anterior and posterior sector. In horizontal point of view, the inset dimension is established according to the differences between in-outs of the anterior and posterior sector bonding. Both measures are indicated in a customized template. Superimpose the standard lingual arch wire template on the model photocopy, select the size that fits the best to your needs. The arch wire line of the template should be superimposed on the area of the brackets slots. When we verify the anterior curvature and the in-set size, both in horizontal and in vertical, we have to establish the anterior curvature length or the point in which the in-set should be carried out. The distance between the in-sets should be at least equal to the sum of mesio-distal diameters of canines and incisors. There can be three cases: 1. Anterior segment remains the same. In this case, there is no crowding nor spacing, and therefore a 1 mm in-set to distal of the canine bracket is carried out. 2. Anterior segment should increase its length. In this case, there is crowding and the distance between in-sets should allow the alignment, and therefore it has to be longer than the distance between the brackets for as many millimeters as the crowding. 3. Anterior segment should reduce its length. In this case, there is spacing, or the stripping is carried out, therefore, the 1st arch (working arch) is equal to the distance between the canine brackets. When the spaces are closed, next arches should be able to reduce the anterior segment length to close the space between the canines and the bicuspids. In extraction cases, the inset situation also depends on the way in which the extraction space is mana-

ged. Initial canine distalization is carried out with the 1st arch wire. The canine should be distalized enough so the anterior segment can be aligned, i.e., the anterior dento-alveolar discrepancy (canine-to-canine) should be at zero. The cephalometric discrepancy is not taken into account because in lingual technique, “en masse� retraction of canine-to-canine segment is always done due to two reasons: mechanic: the inset between the 3 and 4 makes difficult to distalize separately canines and incisors; esthetic: to avoid creation of a space between the canine and the lateral incisor (which is undesirable by adult patients). Furthermore, the extraction space in adults is covered by an esthetic prosthetic tooth, which is gradually trimmed as the space is closed. For initial distalization, the inset should be carried out by leaving a certain length of an anterior arch, sufficient enough to make effective the movement. This is the procedure in cases in which there is no requirement for anchorage. In cases of maximum anchorage, the inset is positioned in such a way that it makes contact with the bicuspid; in medium anchorage cases, the inset is positioned in the center of the extraction space.

Posterior arch wire zone design In sliding arch wires (working arch wires), posterior sectors have to be straight. In finishing arch wires, they should have 1st order bends (in-out/alignment and height/leveling), necessary for compensation of parameters which couldn’t be compensated with the bonding. Antemolar omegas should be carried out, and distal end of the arch wire should be always bent towards labial to avoid discomfort in the tongue. Transverse adjustment of the arch wire should be carried out according to the needs of expansion or contraction of the case. Horizontal and vertical bowing effect compensation curves should also be incorporated in the arch wire. Vertical bowing effect is the same both in labial and lingual arch wires, i.e., there is a tendency to molar mesio-version and extrusion, bicuspids intrusion, and incisors extrusion. It should be compensated with a sagittal curve incorporated in the arch wire to gingival concavity, i.e., upper super-Spee curve and lower anti-Spee curve (equivalent to tip-back). Horizontal bowing effect is the opposite in lingual and labial arch wires. In lingual arches, the tendency is molar distorotation and bicuspid expansion. It should be compensated with the horizontal curve opposite to the

ovoid shape which we incorporate in labial arches, i.e., it is equivalent to toe-out. Both curves considered from canines to second molars are 2 mm deep, but this depth is increased when the bowing effect is increased due to the characteristics of the case. Vertical and horizontal bowing effect is increased in: a) Small diameter and more flexible arches.

Fig. 7. Upper model.

b) Extraction cases. c) Wide extraction spaces. d) Space closure arches, both with loops and sliding mechanics.

In these cases, the corresponding (vertical or horizontal) compensation curve depth should be increased, and in the opposite cases, the curve should be reduced.

e) Hyper divergent or dolichofacial patients. Vertical bowing effect increases in: a) Deep bite cases. b) Molar mesio-version. Horizontal bowing effect increases in: a) Molar disto-rotation.

wire template. It is convenient to carry out the 1st arch wire in the laboratory according to the template and to check it on the model with bonded brackets (before fabrication of the transfer tray), to check for any differences between the photocopy and the model. If the arch wire doesn’t fit to the model, the template must be corrected.

application (DALI, software for computer-aided design of lingual arch wires), also stressed the importance of an occlusogram in the treatment plan.

The figure 28 shows the first ligated .022� Thermic NiTi archwire. Observe that the arch wire is compressed in anterior zone to allow the incisors and canine alignment after the protrusion movement is done. The arch wire still cannot be ligated in all brackets. The figure 29 shows the progress of the treatment. The alignment is partially finished, and the arch wire is not compressed any more, but it still cannot be inserted in all brackets.

Conclusions A detailed procedure has been described on how to carry out the customized templates of working and finishing lingual arch wires for indirect bonding, reducing the chair time. From our experience, we can confirm that very rarely we have to correct the template, but there are obviously more precise methods to obtain 1:1 ratio occlusograms. Dr. Charles Burnstone (Connecticut University) designed the first photo camera for occlusograms, the Occlusal Tracer (Behavioral Motivations, Hobbs), and the very same Dr. Burnstone published computer-aided occlusograms for the first time in 1979. Soon, Marcotte33 (Occlusal VTO manual, based on Simon and Burnstone), Ricketts33 (computer-aided occlusogram), and Didier Fillion4,5 with his lingual

It is also important to underline Larry White’s34-37 works with occlusograms and it use, drawing the upper and lower arches and superimposing them to check the occlusion. He stressed the importance of their use in customized arch wire shapes fabrication, measuring of dento-alveolar discrepancy, checking of upper-lower Bolton discrepancy, occlusal simulations and evaluation of different treatment plans. We38 also use the occlusogram, carry out the occlusal VTO to correct the set-up models in cases of diagnostic set-up, CLASS System, elastic positioners and surgical splints. When the occlusal VTO is drawn, it is positioned over the OPI (Occlusal Plane Indicator) and on the model mounted in SAM, and in this way the lower model can be corrected according to the VTO, keeping the same occlusal plane. To check the design of the arch wire carried out as it has been explained in this article, you can carry out an occlusogram and occlusal VTO and superimpose the template on the VTO.

OFFER: 80 euros (shipping included)* PROLOGUE Having had our previous two WSLO Congresses in two different continents, in New York in 2006 and Seoul in 2007, we held our 3rd biennial Congress in March of this year at Buenos Aires with South America as our 3rd new continent. I’m very glad that so many orthodontists could attend this Congress and could see the newest and the highest level of treatments in lingual orthodontics in the world. I would especially like to say thank you for the efforts of the chairman Dr. Pablo Echarri, Dr. Adriana Pascual and Dr. Fernanda Elgoyhen, the Presidents of SAO and SAOL. Furthermore, I would like to say a very big thank you to all the staff and volunteers, too many to name individually here, who worked so hard to make the 2009 congress such a success. I think that everybody appreciates that putting together such a good event takes a great deal of work and dedication. In addition, I sincerely hope that everybody will appreciate that this book is the result of many hours of work and research by the speakers at the Congress who gave us so many excellent presentations. These speakers have greatly helped in our mission to advance the art and science of lingual orthodontics and to help us to promote the use of lingual orthodontics throughout the world. I hope everybody will make the best use of this book to understand current trends in lingual orthodontics. I hope everybody will take the opportunity to present their ideas and help extend the art and science of lingual orthodontics when we hold our next Congress which will be in Osaka, Japan in April 2011. The WSLO is always seeking to achieve the highest possible quality of lingual orthodontics. Let us look forward together to a promising future.
