METHODS OF SPACE
GAINING
Why space gaining??The correcction of many malocclusions require space in order to move the teeth into more ideal locations.Such as for correction of :CrowdingProclinationRotated anteriorsDeep biteConstricted arches
INTRODUCTION:
Methods to gain space include:
Proximal strippingExpansionExtractionDistalisationUprighting of molarsDerotation of posterior teethProclination of anteriors
Also known as SLENDERIZATION / REPROXIMATION / DISKING
Method by which proximal surfaces of teeth are sliced to reduce mesio-distal width of teeth.
This procedure provides a maximum of 2.5 mm space
PROXIMAL STRIPPING:
Indications:Carey’s analysis showing a TTM excess of 0-2.5mmBolton’s analysis showing mild tooth material excess For correction of minimal interarch tooth material
discrepancyIn lower anteriors to aid retentionIn cases where individual tooth size prevents class I
molar relationTo obtain favourable overjet or overbite
Contraindications:Young patientsPatients with high caries indexPatients with enamel hypoplasia
Advantages
Minimizes potential consequences of extraction such as:Difficulty in
completing space closure
Need for greater anchorage
Possibility of space re-opening
Difficulty in paralleling roots next to extraction sites
Disadvantages
Drawbacks include:Roughened proximal
surfaces that atrract plaque
Increased caries susceptibility
Sensitivity of teeth
EXPANSIONNon-invasive method of space gainingUndertaken in patients having constricted
arch
Indications:CrossbiteCrowdingSkeletal class III malocclusionsurgical orthodontics
SLOW EXPANSION DEVICESCoffin spring:
Designed by Walter CoffinRemovable applianceDento-alveolar expansion Made up of 1.25mm thick omega shaped wire
placed in mid palatal regionFree ends of omega embedded in acrylicActivated 1 to 2 mm per week
Quad helix:
Described by RickettsConstructed using a 0.038 inch wire Incorporates 4 helices, therefore flexibility
and range of application is more
Ni-Ti expanders:
Developed by ArndtFixed-removable tandem loop maxillary
expandersHas the capacity to rotate,upright,distalize
and expand the anterior and posterior archDual temp sensitive componentsAnteriorly, finger spring of 0.032 inch
diameter wire0.5mm per week tooth movement
Advantages:Self activatedAutomatically expands to pre-determined
shapeRequires little manipulation by clinicianLight continuous forcesEasy adaptability in inactive state
RAPID MAXILLARY EXPANSION
Indications:1. Posterior cross bite2. Class II
malocclusion3. Class III
malocclusion4. Constricted arch5. SARPE6. Cleft palate7. TS-ALD
Contraindications1. Existing openbite2. Single tooth cross
bite3. Skeletal
assymmetry4. Patent mid palatal
suture5. Periodontally weak
molars
First tried by Kingsley using headgearAimed at moving the molars distally to gain spoaceIdeal timimg mixed denition period prior to
eruption of second permanent molars
Indications:Straight profileFunctional :
Normal, healthy tmj Correct maxillo-mandibular relationship
Distalization:
Skeletal class I skeletal relationship skeletal closed bite brachycephalic growth pattern
DentalClass II or end on relationshipDiscrepancy of 2 to 3 mm
Contraindications :Class I or III malocclusionOpen bitePosterior crowding
Types:
Extra oral: (Using headgears)
Components:1. Force delivering unit : face bow/ J hook2. Force generating unit :elastic strap3. Anchoring unit: head cap/ neck strap
It brings about bodily movement or distal tipping of the molars in a posterior direction
Tipping movement is recommended in case of horizontal growth pattern and deep bites. In such cases it helps in opening the bite and also increases lower anterior facial height.
Headgears allow bilateral as well as unilateral distalization. Also, amount of distalization can be controlled individually
Intra oral:
1. Sagittal appliance
Removable appliance incorporating jackscrews
Consists of a split acrylic plate joined by jackscres
Acrylic plate is sectioned in such a way that the tooth to be distalised is isolated and the rest of the arch is used for anchorage
Retained using adams clasps Jackscrews are parallel to surface of molarsUsed for individual tooth distalization
Pendulum appliance:
Intra-oral distalization appliance introduced by Hilgers
Incorporates a modified Nance button for anchorage and a stainless steel wire
The wire has a helix the distal end of which is inserted into a sleeve at the palatal aspect of the molar to be distalised
Activated by opening the helices and engaging the distal ends into the sleeves
Types I. Heliger’s pendexII. Heliger’s PhD applianceIII. T-rex appliance
Jasper jumper
Fixed appliance for correction of class II skeletal malocclusion
Delivers light continuous forcesTakes anchorage from lower canine region to
distalise maxillary molarsUsed for single tooth or entire arch
Jones jigOpen coil springPlaced on buccal aspect; generates required force when compressedAnchorage by Nance’s palatal button and Ni-Ti wire to bring about distal movementThe assembly is ligated onto d first molar to prevent rolling
Distal jet appliance:Lingual distalization applianceActive components are placed palatally which
provide more bodily movementsConsists of bilateral piston and tube
arrangementTube is embedded in modified acrylicAnchorage by Nance palatal button that are
bonded to bands attached to 1 or 2 premolarsA Ni-Ti spring and activation collar are placed
near each tubeActivation collar is retracted distally, causing
compression and thereby activationAdvg: less distal tipping
Lip bumpersUsed in lower arch; counter part used in
upper arch is Denholtz applianceUses :1. Mixed dendition to bring about minor
distallization2. Regain space for unerupted teeth3. Uprighting mesially tipped mandibular
molars4. Inactive lip bumper used as retentive
appliance
Extraction Painless removal of tooth from its socket
Need for extraction:1. Arch length to TTM discrepancy
2. Correction of inter arch relationship
3. Abnormal size and shape of teeth eg: peg shaped laterals, mesio dens , macrodontia
4. Skeletal jaw mal-relations
Different extraction procedures
› Wilkinson’s extraction› Balancing extraction› Compensating extraction› Serial extraction› Phased extraction› Enforced extraction› Atypical extraction
wilkinson’s extraction
All four permanent molars b/w the age of 8-9 years Due to high caries riskAdvg: Additional space for third molars..thus prevents
impaction Overcrowding minimzedDisadvg: Limited space Rotation of 1 and 2 premolars Subsequent treatment may be detrimental because
of lack of anchorage Improper contact leads to food accumulation
Balancing extraction• Intentional extraction of tooth from the
opposite side of same arch• To prevent midline shift
Compensating extractions• Intentional extraction of tooth from the same
side of opposite arch• To preserve molar relationship
Serial extractions Correctly timed and planned extraction of deciduous
and permanent teeth in mixed dentition Purpose : Alleviate crowding Allow unerupted teeth to guide themselves into
position Lessen period of mechanical appliance therapy
Enforced extractionsCarried out on teeth which are decayed ,periodontally weak , impacted, in line of fracture….
Phased extractions At different times in different quadrants To bring about a change in molar relationship
Uprighting of molars• Premature loss of teeth may result in tipping
of the adjacent teeth• A tipped teeth occupies more space • Therefore uprighting of teeth allows for
recovery of some space• It can be achieved by space regainers
• Rotated teeth occupy more space• De-rotation provides some amount of space • Can be brought about by space regainers and
springs
De-rotation of teeth
