Dr. Annie Marie
Kuijpers – Jagtman |
Nowadays digital technology is conquering the world and thus
orthodontists and maxillofacial surgeons are increasingly adding
digital technology to their clinical records. Since the early
thirties of the last century the classical patient documentation
consisted of a lateral headfilm, orthopantomogram, facial and dental
photographs and plaster casts. Orthodontists belonged to the early
adopters of 2D-digital photography for their intra- and extra-oral
pictures. But today, 3D seems to be the way to go. The lateral and
frontal head film and the OPT can be replaced by one Cone Beam CT
scan, which enables a 3D-cephalometric analysis. 3D-facial still
pictures can be made and just recently 3D-video started to develop.
Digital dental casts will replace plaster casts for clinical use. In
this lecture I will illustrate the possibilities of these
3D-techniques for the orthodontist. I hope to answer the question
whether it is worthwhile to go 3D

Non - Surgical Open Bite Correction in Adults with TADs
After development of skeletal
anchorage system (SAS) utilizing titanium miniplates as absolute
orthodontic anchorages, we have been offering a non-surgical
treatment option for skeletal open bite patients in adults. However,
such non-surgical approach is not necessarily easy, because most of
skeletal open bite cases usually have not only vertical problems,
but also some anteroposterior and transverse orthodontic problems.
Those are a maxillary protrusion, an anterior crossbite, an
asymmetric dentiion, and a crowding.
The most distinguished feature of SAS is to enable us to
predictably move molars in any three-dimensional directions, because
miniplates are always placed outside of the dental arches with
monocortical titanium screws and never disturb any kind of tooth
movement. Therefore, it has become possible to solve complex
orthodontic problems of skeletal open bite cases without the need
for jaw surgery and patient's compliance.
About the Speaker:
Junji Sugawara is a Director at SAS Orthodontic Centre, Japan, a
Clinical Professor at Tohoku University, Japan, and a Clinical

Management of Obstructive Sleep Apnoea in Adults and in Children:
An Evidence Based Perspective
In recent years, increasing interest has developed in sleep related breathing disorders such as snoring and obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA). Nasal continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) is the current treatment of choice, but its cumbersome nature makes tolerance and compliance less than optimal. This gives rise to the need for other alternatives such as oral appliances that may be equally effective, but more tolerable. Mandibular Advancement Splints (MAS) were found successful in 63% of OSA patients. Tongue Stabilizing Device (TSD) has also showed promising results in the management of OSA. TSD is more indicated in edentulous and periodontally compromised patients, who have no or reduced dental anchorage. Rapid maxillary expansion in growing and surgically assisted expansion in adult patients help in treating OSA. Dr Darendeliler will discuss different types of oral appliances, their effectiveness, their short and long term side effects and clinical management

Optimizing
Treatment Mechanics in Complex and Compromised Cases
Although a variety of cases can be treated adequately with
continuous archwire mechanics, optimal and efficient treatment of
complex cases requires the careful selection of orthodontic wire
materials and mechanics. A poor choice of mechanics or materials
will often result in increased treatment time, and compromised or
unintended treatment outcomes. Dr. Kapila will discuss the selective
use of various types of mechanics in achieving 3D control and
desired results in difficult cases.
The attendees will learn about:
- Differences in biology and mechanics in adult and compromised
cases versus adolescent and routine cases.
- The use of selective mechanics and materials for different types
of cases and treatment phases to obtain efficient and optimal
results.

Orthodontics
An optimal outcome of combined surgery and orthodontics involving
the maxilla is dependent on many factors. Accurate placement of the
maxilla by the surgical team is ultimately of paramount importance
and many factors may contribute to realising excellent orthodontic
and surgical outcomes. These factors will be presented in a
systematic fashion.
Assessment and manipulation of the occlusal plane in combined
surgical orthodontics is essential in diagnosis and treatment
planning. This presentation will discuss factors and considerations
associated with levelling of the occlusal plane such as timing of
levelling, rotation of the occlusal plane and inferior repositioning
challenges.

The Art and
Science of Space Closure in Extraction Cases
Extraction cases can require maximum, moderate or minimum molar
anchorage preservation. Two separate archwire designs and mechanics
will be presented that allow for:
- Maximum anchorage preservation and simultaneous enmasse
retraction and intrusion of the six anterior teeth without the
use of TAD's or headgear.
- Moderate or minimum molar anchorage preservation with
enmasse space closure. These mechanics are effective, efficient
and greatly reduce treatment time. The fundamental of
biomechanics will be illustrated with suitable representative
case reports.

Alternative and Multidisciplinary Approaches to Achieve Optimal
Results
Adult patients often present to the orthodontist with mutilated
dentitions which have contributed to the development of complex
orthodontic problems.
Endosseous implants and temporary anchorage devices for patients
with multiple missing teeth can be used in a very cost- effective
manner when a proper understanding of biomechanics enhances the
possibility of using skeletal anchorage to achieve orthodontic
movements in different sites in the arch.
The objectives of this lecture are to:
- Describe the treatment planning process in complex
multidisciplinary cases using endosseous dental implants and
temporary anchorage devices for absolute anchorage.
- Illustrate the different force systems that can be delivered
through endosseous dental implants and temporary anchorage devices.
- Describe the versatility of cantilever systems in providing
direct anchorage from endosseous dental implants and temporary
anchorage devices

Surgical Orthodontics
Combined orthodontic and orthognathic treatment has indeed undergone a very gradual but, very deep definite evolution if not revolution over the past several decades. Surgical Orthodontic treatment planning depends on determining specific treatment objectives before beginning treatment. Correction of Dentofacial deformities include a wide range of minor and major facial and jaw surgical procedures. The benefits include an improved ability in mastication, speech, airway and the overall improvement in the facial outcome.
The vast categories of patients who can potentially benefit from orthognathic surgery are adults with skeletal malocclusions, mutilated malocclusions and periodontally compromised malocclusions. Perhaps the most important evolution in surgical treatment planning is the interdisciplinary synergy of an orthodontist and the maxillofacial surgeon. The blend of these two specialties with a combined effort would enable us to achieve unparalled consistent results than ever before for our patients. Proper coordination of treatment and communication between team members makes the difference between success and failure when ideal esthetics is the goal of surgical orthodontic approach. |

Orthodontic
Implications of Facial Asymmetry
Perfect bilateral symmetry of mathematical accuracy in craniofacial
region is as uncommon as gross asymmetry. Minor facial asymmetry is
difficult to appreciate and often escapes the clinician's eye. In
growing children, preexisting, minor asymmetry becomes more
discernible and often disturbing by the time the child reaches
skeletal maturity
Facial asymmetry in the maxillary region is most commonly seen in
cases with unilateral clefts, unilateral multiple crossbites and
some rare syndromes. The maxillary segment on the cleft side is
usually small in size and shows deficient growth in sagittal,
vertical and transverse position. The maxillary dental arches show
collapse of varying degree due to surgical scar and alveolar
deficiency.
Asymmetry in the mandibular region most commonly presents as
deviation of chin and vertical shortening or elongation of one side
of the face. The commonest etiology for such deformations has been
reported to be traumatic impact received by the mandibular condyle
on one side, with or without resultant ankylosis. In cases of marked
unilateral undergrowth of the mandible, due to TMJ ankylosis, the
accompanying dental arch distortions are much more severe. However,
unilateral overgrowth of the mandible is accompanied by less severe
arch distortions and milder compensations of incisor teeth.
Standardized lateral and P.A. films, orthopantomograms and 3D CT
images are extremely valuable to allow the quantification of
asymmetry. After the appropriate diagnosis, the treatment modalities
are dictated by age of the patient, the nature, site and extent of
abnormality. Maxillary asymmetry may require extensive pre and post
orthodontic corrections with alveolar bone grafting. A functional
deviation of the mandible may require an early approach of removing
prematurities of dentition, whereas a gross mandibular asymmetry
following release of ankylosed TM joint would be indicated for
distraction osteogenesis. This presentation would include case
reports of a variety of facial asymmetry cases, their diagnosis and
treatment modalities adopted, essentially and jointly by the oral
and maxillofacial surgeon and the orthodontist.

How different is
Orthodontic care delivery, with the advent of Micro screw based
Anchorage
In conventional mechanics, used over decades the force needed for
any orthodontic movements was solely sourced from the molars in more
than 80% of situations. Hence the buccal segments particularly the
molars- became the principle source of anchorage, which resulted in
reactionary and unwanted effects like elevation or depression,
mesial drifting or tipping -all indicative of anchor loss. Entire
treatment planning revolved round countering such side effects. The
timely advent of Micro screws has changed the scenario totally.
In the current orthodontic practice scenario, what are the
modalities and supporting know-how is in and what are the concepts
and principle that are out:
The most needed requirements are:
- Good, workable and fail free implant system that is most tissue
friendly with needful accessories.
- Know how to place and remove implants with little effort or
complications
- Complete familiarity with all the concerned biomechanical
principles to use the implants to gain treatment objectives
- Changes in treatment strategy to suit implants-assisted therapy
What is out:
- Extra oral anchorage and its accessories at least for all dental
movements
Clinical cases will illustrate to support the tenets.

Outliers: The
secret of success: Where is the evidence?
Orthodontics is in the process of transformation as newer
technologies and treatment modalities under scribe concepts of
efficiency and patient centred care. The advent of self ligation,
Tads , a resurgence of interest in Lingual orthodontics is
reflective of this process of change. History of orthodontics is
replete with abandoned techniques and appliances. The origins and
genesis of a new system may be steeped in science and research but
its eventual success or decision that it here to stay or will it be
just a fleeting event is decided by evidence. This presentation
would try and weigh the evidence on newer advents in orthodontics
and define a perspective for change
