En masse retraction versus two-step retraction of anterior teeth in extraction treatment of bimaxillary protrusion

Abstract: In the present report, two techniques of space closure; two-step anterior teeth retraction (TSR) and en masse retraction (ER) were used in two adult patients who had bimaxillary protrusion and were treated with four premolar extractions and fixed orthodontic appliance therapy. Both patients had a Class I dental malocclusion and the same chief complaint, which is protrusive lips. Anterior teeth were retracted by two-step retraction; canine sliding followed by retraction of incisors with T-loop archwire in the f… Show more

“…This study, however, aimed to evaluate springs for en masse retraction, where a force twice as large is generally suggested. 13,14,19 Thus, the 0.016" 3 0.022" T-loop produced forces below what is supposedly deemed necessary for en masse retraction (Table 7) but still considered greater than the force deemed necessary for canine retraction. 9 Another T-loop made with the same brand of NiTi we used (Sentalloy, Dentsply GAC International Inc) out of 0.016" 3 0.025" wire 9 showed an even smaller force than we did, probably due to its larger height (10 mm) than ours (6 mm) and because of more extensive heat treatment, which decreases the pseudoelastic plateau of NiTi materials.…”

“…Because recent studies have shown that there is no difference in the rates of anterior retraction and loss of anchorage between that and en masse retraction, [13][14][15] it makes sense that the latter method would be clinically more practical and save chair time. The issue is that previously described available NiTi T-loop9 designs produce low forces for that purpose (below 250 gf at the beginning of deactivation), either because they were made from a small dimension wire, such as 0.016" 3 0.022", 9 or because they were possibly not activated enough.…”

“…A controlled inclination movement -instead of translation (Burstone) is applied from initial stages of space closure in such cases (Martins et al, 2009). β-Ti T-type loops produce controlled orthodontic tooth movements in a time-efficient way (Gurgel et al, 2001), through the delivery of determined force systems that facilitate individualized or en-masse retraction (Insabralde et al;Felemban et al, 2013). However, a significant decrease of force after 3 mm of deactivation is regularly found in clinical settings (Menghi et al, 1999;Viecilli, 2006;Almeida et al, 2016).…”

“…1,4 Salah satu teknik penutupan ruang pada perawatan ortodonti dengan pencabutan adalah memakai T-loop segmental. [7][8][9] Teknik ini menjadi pilihan ketika operator tidak menghendaki friksi dan menginginkan kontrol gerakan tipping serta rotasi melalui pengaturan momen (Gambar 1). 7,10 Penelitian ini bertujuan mengetahui pengaruh heat treatment pada suhu 450°C selama 15 menit terhadap pegas segmental T-loop stainless steel, dengan berbagai variasi sudut gable dan jarak tarik terhadap besar gaya yang dihasilkan.…”
