INTRODUCTION Conservation of anchorage in totality has been a perennial problem to the traditional orthodontist ..
ANCHORAGE CONTROL ; INTRA ORAL EXTRA ORAL ABSOLUTE ANCHORAGE ; ORTHODONTIC IMPLANTS
The advent of osseointegrated implants, due to the pioneering studies of Prof. Branemark has changed this scenario. The implants made of titanium have been widely used by several orthodontists as they offer Absolute Anchorage

IMPLANT TERMINOLOGY Implant: As defined by Boucher Implants are alloplastic devices which are surgically inserted into or onto jaw bone. Osseointegration:BRANEMARK coined the term in 1977 On the light microscope direct contact between living bone and implant(ALBREKTSSON et al 1981) An intimate structural contact at the implant surface and adjacent vital bone, devoid of any intervening fibrous tissue - Branemark(1983). A bony attachment with resistance to shear and tensile forces(STEINEMAN 1986 Funcional equivalent of DENTAL ANKYLOSIS (ROBERTS 1994)
www.indiandentalacademy.com
HISTORY OF IMPLANTS GAINFORTH AND HIGLEY(1945) first published the use of subperiostel vitallium implant to effect tooth movement in dogs LINKOW (1969) described endosseous blade implants with perforation for orthodontic anchorage. KAWAHARA( 1975) developed Bioglass coated ceramic implant for orthodontic anchorage. THE BRANE MARK ( 1964,1969, 1977) MENTOR OF MODERN IMPLANT SURGERY described the high compatibility and strong anchorage of titanium in human tissue. Various bioactive ceramics such as glass ceramic (BROMER ET AL 1977,HENCH ET AL 1973) ,
www.indiandentalacademy.com
CREEKMORE(1983) reported the possibility of skeletal anchorage in orthodontics . ROBERTS(1984) used conventional two stage implant in the retromolar region to help reinforce anchorage successfully closing first molar extraction site in the mandible . After completion of the orthodontic treatment the implant were removed and histologically analysed . They found a high level of osseo integration had been maintained despite the orthodontic loading. HIGUCHI and JAMES ( 1991) used titanium fixtures for intraoral anchorage to facilitate orthodontics tooth movement. COSTA ET AL ( 1998) used miniscrew for orthodontic anchorage UMEMORI ET ET AL ( 1999) used SAS for open bite correction GIULIANO MAINO ( 2003) spider screw

PARTS OF IMPLANT The commonly used implant screw/plate has two parts a) Implant head b) Implant body
www.indiandentalacademy.com
Materials used • The material must be nontoxic and biocompatible, have favorable mechanical properties, and be able to resist stress and strain with proven effectiveness in clinical and experimental studies. • The materials commonly used for implants can be divided into 3 categories: – Biotolerant - stainless steel, chromium-cobalt alloy. – Bioinert - titanium, carbon and – Bioactive - vetroceramic apatite hydroxide, ceramic oxidized aluminum.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
Advantages of titanium • Commercially pure titanium is the material most often used in implantology. • It consists of 99.5% titanium, and the remaining 0.5% is other elements, such as carbon, oxygen, nitrogen, and hydrogen. • Osseointegration • no allergic or immunological reactions • Mechanical characteristics -very light weight, excellent resistance to tarnish and corrosion.

CLASSIFICATION OF IMPLANT Based on the location Subperiosteal ; In this design, the implant body lies over the bony ridge. . The subperiosteal design currently in use for orthodontic purposes is the 'Onplant'
www.indiandentalacademy.com
Transosseous ; In this particular variety, the implant body penetrates the mandible completely. DISADVANTAGE Damage to the intrabony soft tissue structures like the nerves and vessels .
www.indiandentalacademy.com
Endosseous ; These are partially submerged and anchored within bone. These have been the most popular and the widely used ones. The endosseous implants are most commonly employed types for orthodontic purposes.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
Based on the configuration design . Root form implants: These are the screw type endosseous implants and the name has been derived due to their cylindrical structure Blade / Plate implants: According to the composition Stainlesssteel Cobalt-Chromium-Molybdenum (Co-Cr-Mo) Titanium Ceramic Implants Miscellaneous such as Vitreouscarbon and composites According to the surface structure. Threaded or Non-threaded. Porous or Non Porous.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
Since 1995 over 10 new systems of implant have been introduced Based on the implant morphology: a) Implant discs i. Onplant b) Screw designs - These include: i. Mini-Implant ii. Orthosystem implant system iii. Aarhus implant iv. Micro-implant v. Newer systems such as the Spider screw. c) Plate designs - These include: i. Skeletal Anchorage system (SAS) ii. Graz implant supported system iii. Zygoma anchorage system www.indiandentalacademy.com
II ) They can also be classified depending on the area of placement as: a) Subperiosteal Implants b) Osseous implants c) Inter-dental implants
www.indiandentalacademy.com
IMPLANT-BONE INTERFACE The relationship between endosseous implants and bone consists :osseointegration,when the bone is in intimate contact with the implant, or Osseointegration refers to the direct contact of bone and implant at the light microscope level . Osseointegration never occurs on 100% of the implant surface. Successful cases will have between 30% and 95% of the implant
www.indiandentalacademy.com
Bone Tissue Three distinct types of bone woven, lamellar, and composite are involved in postoperative healing and maturation of the osseous tissue supporting an implant .
www.indiandentalacademy.com
The healing potential for an implant is determined by three factors: (1) quality of bone at the site of implantation, (2) postoperative stability of the implant, and (3) degree of integration of the interface. If there is good postoperative stability of the implant in cortical bone, the healing response involves six physiological stages: 1. Callus formation (0.5 month-initial), 2. Callus maturation (0.5 to 1.5 months) 3. Regional acceleratory phenomenon (RAP) (1.5 to 12 months) remodeling of the nonvital interface and supporting bone 4. Osseous integration of the interface (1.5 to 12 months)completion of the RAP, increased direct contact of living bone at the interface 5. Maturation of supporting bone (4 to 12 months)completion of the RAP, secondary mineralization of new bone and increased direct contact of living bone at the interface 6. Long-term maintenance of osseointegration

INDICATIONS AND CONTRAINDICATIONS OF IMPLANTS
Indications for implant in orthodontics To retract and align anterior teeth with no posterior support To close edentulous spaces in first molar extraction sites To intrude or extrude teeth To protract or retract teeth of one arch To stabilize teeth with reduced bone support For orthopedic traction Implant for osteogenic distraction
www.indiandentalacademy.com
Contraindication for implant therapy Absolute contraindication Severe systemic disorder eg osteoporosis Psychiatric diseases eg psychoses dysmorphobia Alcoholics drug abusers Relative contraindications Insufficient volume of bone Poor bone quality Patients undergoing radiation therapy Insulin dependent diabetes Heavy smokers

www.indiandentalacademy.com
TREATMENT CONSIDERATIONS Age of the patient The age of the patients is an important consideration as implant are problematic if inserted in growing children for the following reasons The use of implant in the anterior maxilla is contraindicated due to the possibility of the mid palatal suture being open Resorption in the posterior part of the maxilla resulting from growth changes could lead to the exposure of the implant into the sinus The posterior aspect of the mandible continues to undergo growth changes in all the plane of spaces and as such definitive implant placement in this area would be difficult to estimate

Teeth- Number & Existing Conditions 1.Size shape & diameter of existing dention 2. Tooth & root angulation & proximity 3.More than 1.5 mm between implant and natural teeth Periodontium Bone support Quality – Best is the thick compact cortical bone with core of dens trabacular cancellous bone Quantity – 6mm buccal – lingual width with sufficient tissue volume
www.indiandentalacademy.com
An evaluation of bone metabolism is a key element of the diagnostic workup. The minimal screening procedure involves a careful medical history, evaluation of signs and symptoms of skeletal disease and an assessment of risk factors associated with negative calcium balance.The most prevalent metabolic bone diseases in middle-aged and older patients are: Renal osteodystrophy-poor bone quality (fibrousdysplasia) that is secondary to inadequate kidney function .(estimation of alkaline phosphatase) Hyperparathyroidism-elevated serum calcium is often associated with highturnover osteopenia (low bone mass) secondary to a parathyroid adenoma . Thyrotoxicosis-high bone turnover leading to osteopenia, associated with hyperthyroidism orovertreatment of hypothyroidism . Osteomalacia-poor mineralization of osteoid due to a deficiency of the active metabolite of vitamin D (I, 25-dihydroxycholecalciferol) . Osteoporosis-usually defined as symptomatic osteopenia; most common fractures are of the spine, wrist, and/or hip. Fragility of other weight bearing joints such as the knee and ankle are also common problems. www.indiandentalacademy.com
Mucogingival problems Suffient volume is necessary Soft tissue heights of <2mm or> 4mm may present a challenge Oral hygiene Important pre and post implant placement Systemic manifestations 1.Diabetics are predisposed to delayed healing 2. Destructive habits â&#x20AC;&#x201C; smoking is contraindicatd to placement of implant as delayed or inadequate tissue healing and osseointergration is noted

APPLICATION OF IMPLANT IN ORTHODONTICS As a Source of Anchorage alone (Indirect anchorage) a. Orthopedic Anchorage - Maxillary Expansion - Headgear like effects b. Dental Anchorage Space closure of anterior teeth Intrusion of posterior teeth Distalization c. In conjunction with prosthetic rehabilitation (Direct anchorage).
www.indiandentalacademy.com
ORTHOPEDIC CORRECTION WITH IMPLANTS i) Maxillary Protraction ii) Maxillary Expansion However, these have been in experimental studies. i) Maxillary Protraction Smalley et al in 1988 used Branemark implants into the maxilla, zygoma, orbital and occipital bones of monkeys. A force of 600 gm was delivered to maxillary and zygomatic bones . A 12mm widening at the zygomaticomaxillary suture was seen and 16mm widening at zygomaticotemporal suture was observed. The dental changes seen were a 57mm change in overjet. However dental tipping also occurred along with skeletal protraction.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
ii) Implants for skeletal expansion In 1995 - Movassaghi et al tested frontonasal suture expansion in rabbits from an implanted titanium screw device. The plates were placed in frontal and nasal bones. After4 weeks of healing, 55 gm force was applied . Force was applied for 5 weeks and a significant increase in growth to the tune of 6 mm. across frontonasal suture was seen.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
ENDOSSEOUS IMPLANT
Implants for dental anchorage
a) Implants for intrusion of teeth Creekmore in 1983 published a case report of usage of a vitallium implant for anchorage, while intruding the upper anterior teeth. The vitallium srew was inserted just below the anterior nasal spine . After an unloading period of 10 days, an elastic thread was tied from head of the screw to the arch wire. Within one year, 6mm intrusion was demonstrated along with 25 lingual torque .
www.indiandentalacademy.com
Another study by Southard in 1995 compared the intrusion 'potential of implants with that of teeth (denta1 anchors). Titanium implants were placed in extracted 4th premolar area in dogs, followed by an unloading period of three months. Then, an intrusive force of 50-60 gm via 'V' bend was effected. This was compared with intrusive potential of teeth on the other side using the same mechanics. No movement of implant was seen at the end of the experiment whereas, on the other side, the tooth acting as the anchor units tipped severely. Therefore, implants are definitely superior to the teeth acting as anchor units.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
b) Implants for space closure Extensive research relating to usage of retromolar implants for orthodontic anchorage has been done by Eugene Roberts. A special implant was developed of size 3.8mm width and 6.9 mm length, which was placed in the retromolar area.
www.indiandentalacademy.com

A Patient before treatment, showing missing mandibular first molar with mesial tipping of second and third molars into extraction site. B. Beginning of active treatment, with anchorage wire In place. C. Molars translated mesially with no appreciable distal movement of premolars. D. Five months after active treatment, 9mm of mesial translation of mandibular molar root apices www.indiandentalacademy.com
Although the retromolar implants popularised by Eugene Roberts are very efficient in preserving anchorage, they suffer from certain drawbacks, which in turn has hindered their acceptance in routine clinical practice.
DISADVANTAGE OF ENDOSSEOUS IMPLANT The important limitations are: a) Bulkiness of the implant b) It involves a two stage procedure c) Anatomical limitations d) Cost of the implants
www.indiandentalacademy.com
SUBPERIOSTEL IMPLANT THE ONPLANT Developed by Block and Hoffman in 1995, this system consists of a circular disc 8-10 mm in diameter with a provision for abutments in the center of the superficial surface . The undersurface of this Titanium disc is textured and coated with Hydroxyapatite (HA). The HA, being bioactive helps in stabilisation of the implant by improving integration with bone. The average thickness (height) of the implant is 3 mm .
www.indiandentalacademy.com
Method of Placement: The onplant is placed by a surgeon through a specialised procedure known asTunneling. After making an incision in the posterior region of the palate, a sub-periosteal tunnel flap is created extending till the desired location, using an elevator. Care is taken to position the onplant as close to the midline as possible. The onplant is not disturbed for a period of 3-4 months to allow bio-integration. Later, the superficial surface of the onplant is exposed using a trephine and the desired abutment is then threaded on . www.indiandentalacademy.com
www.indiandentalacademy.com
www.indiandentalacademy.com
Studies on Onplants: Extensive animal studies have been carried out on onplants. They point out to the fact that onplants bio-integrate and can tolerate a maximum force of 161 Ibs.
Disadvantages of Onplants: a) A long waiting period prior to orthodontic force application b) Excessive surgical intervention - Two surgeries are necessary after onplant placement; one to uncover the onplant cover screw and the other to remove the onplant itself following Orthodontic treatment. c) Cost factor
www.indiandentalacademy.com
OSSEOUS IMPLANT Osseous implants are those that are placed in dense bone such as the zygoma, the body and ramus area or the mid-palatal areas. The implant systems under this category are the Skeletal Anchorage system(SAS), The Grazimplant supported system The Zygoma anchorage system
www.indiandentalacademy.com
SKELETAL ANCHORAGE SYSTEM The skeletal anchorage system was developed by Umemori and Sugawara Appliance design It essentially consists of titanium miniplates, which are stabilised in the maxilla or the mandible using screws. Different designs of miniplates are available and this fact offers some versatility in placing the implants in different sites. The 'L' shaped miniplates have been the most commonly used ones, while the 'T' shaped ones have been proposed for usage while intruding anterior teeth . The screws used for fixing the miniplate are usually 2-2.5mm in diameter
www.indiandentalacademy.com
www.indiandentalacademy.com
Method of Placement Titanium miniplates were implanted after a local anesthesia with intravenous sedation. First, a mucoperiosteal incision was made at the buccal vestibule directly under the first or second lower molars. The mucoperiosteal flap was then elevated, and the surface of the cortical bone at the apical region of the molar was exposed. An L-shaped miniplate was adjusted to fit the contour of each cortical bone surface and was fixed by bone screws (length, 5 mm or 7 mm) with the long arm exposed to the oral cavity from the incised wound (there are two holes in the long arm of the miniplate; the exposed hole will be used to directly receive the intrusive force).The implant was placed such that it did not interfer with mandibular movement.. All of the miniplates were transfixed at the region of the buccal vestibule. Loading was done after wound is healed.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
www.indiandentalacademy.com
Advantage of miniplates 1.The shape of the miniplate can be adjusted to the type of tooth movement: intrusion of molars, intrusion of incisors, distalization or protraction of teeth, etc., and the thickness of the patientâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s bone. 2.Position of the plate can be adjusted during the treatment . 3.It can be placed without destroying the teeth or bone. 4.The anchor plates are monocortically placed at the piriform opening rim, the zygomatic buttresses, and any regions of the mandibular cortical bone. The anchor plates work as the onplant and the screws function as the implant, SAS enables the rigid anchorage that results from the osseointegration effects in both the anchor plates and screws. 5. All portions of the anchor plates and screws are placed outside the maxillary and mandibular dentition, the SAS does not interfere with tooth movement . www.indiandentalacademy.com
Distalization of molars single molar distalization Extraction of the third molars is done to create the space for the molar distalization. After the buccal segments are leveled and aligned, stiff archwires . L-shaped anchor plates are placed at the anterior border of the mandibular ramus. Then the bands or brackets of the first molars are taken off, and a retractive force is applied to the second molars with an open coil spring. To avoid the side effects of the reciprocal coil spring, the first premolars must be firmly ligated with anchor plates. After the distalization of thesecond molars, distalization of the first molars is done with the same procedure.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
www.indiandentalacademy.com
En masse distalization of the entire buccal segments. Direct retractive force is applied from the anchor plates to the first premolars to perform en masse distalization of the buccal segments. Elastic modules or nickeltitaniumclosed coil springs usually provide the retractive orthodontic force
www.indiandentalacademy.com
Intusion of lower molar for correction of open bite Intrusion of the lower molars was achieved with the application of elastic orthodontic force on the SAS, Lingual crown torque was applied to the lower molars with Burstoneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s precision lingual arch to avoid buccal flaring during intrusion
www.indiandentalacademy.com
A) L-shaped miniplate for intrusion of molars B) L-shaped for distal movement of molars C) Y-shaped intrusion and distalizaton of maxillary molars D) Straight miniplate for intrusion of molars
www.indiandentalacademy.com
ADVANTAGE OF SAS The SAS enables tooth movement to be controlled 3-dimensionally, so that treatment goals can be accomplished, even when the amount of tooth movement required is more than the mesiodistal width of the premolars. SAS, it is not always necessary to extract the mandibular first or second premolars, even in patients with moderate to severe crowding. The molar relationship in patients with symmetric or asymmetric Class III molar relationships can be corrected without having to extract mandibular premolars
www.indiandentalacademy.com
ZYGOMA ANCHORAGE SYSTEM Hugo De Clerck and Geerinckx of Belgium introduced this system in 2002. Appliance design The upper part of the Zygoma Anchor is a titanium miniplate with three holes, slightly curved to fit against the inferior edge of the zygomaticomaxillary buttress . A round bar, 1.5mm in diameter, connects the miniplate and the fixation unit. A cylinder at the end of the bar has a vertical slot, where an auxiliary wire with a maximum size of .032" â&#x2039;&#x2026; .032" can be fixed with a locking screw. The plate is attached above the molar roots by three self-tapping titanium miniscrews, each with a diameter of 2.3mm and a length of 5mm or 7mm. The miniscrews do not need to be sandblasted, etched, or coated. Square holes in the center of the screw heads accommodate a screw-driver for initial placement, while pentagonal outer holes are used to remove the screws at the end of treatment.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
www.indiandentalacademy.com
Method of Placement To place the anchor, an L-shaped incision, consisting of a vertical incision mesial to theinferior crest of the zygomaticomaxillary buttress and a small horizontal incision at the border between the mobile and attached gingiva, is made under local anesthesia. The mucoperiosteum is elevated, and the upper part of the anchor is adapted to the curvature of the bone crest . Three holes with a diameter of 1.6mm each are drilled, and the Zygoma Anchor is affixed with the three miniscrews. The cylinder should penetrate the attached gingiva in front of the furcation of the first molar roots at a 90째 angle to the alveolar bone surface. The miniplate is covered by the mucoperiosteum and sutured with resorbable stitches
www.indiandentalacademy.com
CLINICAL APPLICATION Orthodontic forces can be applied to the anchor immediately after implantation. To connect the Zygoma Anchor with the anterior teeth, a rigid power arm was designed to fit in the large vertical slot of a canine bracket .The hook at the end of the power arm is situated at the level of the canineâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s center of resistance. A nickel titanium closed-coil spring with a force of 50-100g is attached between the power arm on the canine and the Zygoma Anchor, so that the direction of force is parallel to the main archwire
www.indiandentalacademy.com
ADVANTAGE Miniscrews are small enough to be placed between the roots of the teeth in the alveolar bone. By connecting two or more miniscrews, the orthodontic reaction forces can be neutralized. The surgical procedure is uncomplicated because the screws are placed directly through the gingiva, without a mucoperiosteal flap, and can be loaded immediately after insertion. Miniscrews can be used in the anterior or posterior region and attached with elastics or coil springs to the fixed appliance for direct anchorage. Anchorage can be adapted to changing treatment needs in different parts of the dental arches. The ZAS uses three miniscrews, increasing total anchorage over other types of implants. The vertical slot with the locking screw makes it possible to attach an auxiliary wire, which can move the point of force application some distance from the anchor.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
DISADVANTAGE The main disadvantage of these screws is their proximity to the roots, which may be damaged during placement of the screws or when the adjacent teeth are displaced
www.indiandentalacademy.com
ORTHOSYSTEM IMPLANT Developed by Wehrbein, this is a titanium screw implant with a diameter of 3.3 mm inserted into the median palate or the retromolar regions of the mandible or the maxilla . The implants are surface treated with sand blasting and acid etching for reducing to improve integration. They are available in two sizes of 4 mm and 6 mm length. An 8- week waiting period has been suggested before applying forces onto this implant.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
GRAZ IMPLANT SUPPORTED PENDULUM Graz implant supported system introduced by Karcher and Byloff, this anchorage system consists of a modified titanium miniplate, with provision for four miniscrews, and two oval shaped cylinders. This was used mainly as a support for the Nance button of a pendulum appliance in the palate . This system can be loaded within 2 weeks to distalize and anchor maxillary first and second molars
www.indiandentalacademy.com
Appliance Design It consists of a simple surgical plate (15 X 10 mm) . Two cylinders (10 mm long and 3.5 mm in diameter) are soldered at right angles to the center of the plate. The plate is fixed to the palatal bone via four 5-mm-long titanium miniscrewsThe 2 cylinders perforate the palatal mucosa to enter the oral cavity. The entire anchorage device is constructed of 100% titanium. No auxiliary wires are bonded to the premolars,making the GISP removable . In the palatal portion of the resin body are 2 cylindric slots that correspond to the 2 cylinders . The system is based on a telescopic principle:the 2 slots of the removable pendulum (RP) are placed over the 2 fixed cylinders of the implant .
www.indiandentalacademy.com
CLINICAL APPLICATIONS Surgical placement and orthodontic procedure The surgeon exposes the anterior part of the palate for insertion of the anchorage plate by preparing a mucoperiosteal flap.. The titanium plate with the 2 cylinders is fixed via four 5-mm-long titanium miniscrews to the bony palate in the median palatal area.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
The plate can be positioned so that the cylinders are positioned either mesiodistally along the palatal suture, or one to the right and one to the left (ie, rotated 90degrees). The area is then covered again with the flap, which has been incised to let the 2 cylinders pass through. After 1 to 2 weeks of healing, an impression is made of the maxillary arch and the palate , and a plaster model is made of the maxilla and titanium cylinders. The removable PA is fabricated in the laboratory and then placed onto the 2 cylinders in the patient's mouth.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
Advantages of Osseous implants: The osseous implants, specially the mini plate designs offer the Orthodontist a fair chance of success in effecting complex tooth movements such as molar intrusion. True intrusion of upper and lower molars in moderate anterior open bite casesconverts a borderline orthognathic case into an orthodontic one.
Disadvantage They need a fairly complex surgery and therefore have to be placed by a surgeon. The chances of infection are greater than the screw implants. Their removal is as difficult as the placement
www.indiandentalacademy.com
INTERDENTAL IMPLANTS These implants are endosseous implants but of smaller diameter, which allows placement in interdental areas. They rely more on mechanical retention than complete osseointegration. They are favoured over the retromolar implants due to the following reasons: a) Placement is very simple and can be done underL.A. b) They seem to be equally effective in resisting forces as the larger root form implants c) They can be used for bringing about all types of tooth movement and d) Removal is an uneventful procedure
www.indiandentalacademy.com
MINIIMPLANT Ryuzo Kanomi introduced the Mini-implant in 1997
Method of Placement After reflection of mucoperiosteal flap and denuding of bone, 2mm round bur used to make 1.5mm pit. Pilot drill used to enter bone same distance as length of mini-implant.

CLINICAL APPLICATION Conventional dental implants are 3.5-5.5mm in diameter and 11-21mm long. The mini-implant is only 1.2mm in diameter and 6mm long, making it much more useful in orthodontic applications. It is used for horizontal traction if placed on the alveolar ridge . The screw is inserted between the mesial and distal roots of a molar for lower molar intrusion and it is placed in the palate, to provide anchorage for upper molar distalization. It can be used distraction osteogenesis, with the implant placed intraorally instead of extraorally.

ADVANTAGE OF MINIIMPLANT 1.It is small enough to place in any area of alveolar bone, even apical bone. 2.The surgical procedure should be easy enough for an orthodontist or general dentist to perform and minor enough for rapid healing. 3.The implant should be easily removable after orthodontic traction
www.indiandentalacademy.com
MICROIMPLANT Site for microimplant placement In the Maxilla Several areas of the maxilla can be used for insertion. One location is the inferior surface of the anterior nasal spine,midpalatine suture.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
The anteroposterior position can vary slightly according to the individual anatomy.The orientation may likewise vary from almost vertical to an oblique anterior direction. It is, however, important to avoid the incisal canal, and when situated anteriorly, the miniscrew should be inserted a slight distance from the midline or more posteriorly.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
Another location is in the Infrazygomatic crest. Level and direction may vary depending on the individual anatomy. From this position the zygoma wire and the implant can deliver anchorage for retraction and intrusion of anterior teeth. In addition, the screws can be placed so that they serve as anchorage for intrusion of molars that have over erupted secondarily to extraction of the occluding teeth. The force delivered with a micro implant anchorage will result in intrusion and buccal tipping, although the latter can be avoided with use of a lingual appliance with a one point.

Molar uprighting A micro-implant (1.2mm in diameter, 12mm in length) was placed in the maxillary tuberosity. A longer microscrew was used than in the lower retromolar area because the cortical bone is much thinner in the maxillary arch than in the mandibular arch. After two weeks of healing, 70g of force was applied with between the microscrew and lingual cleats on the buccal and lingual surfaces of the second molar . Four months later, the second molar showed considerable uprighting

A micro-implant (1.2mm in diameter, 8mm in length) was placed in the retromolar area distal to the second molar, and a ligature wire was extended outward for elastomeric force application . To avoid root damage, only 50g of orthodontic force was applied . The molar was uprighted after eight months of treatment, and a bracket was bonded to it for further movement

SPIDER SCREW The Spider Screw is a self-tapping miniscrew available in three lengths-7mm, 9mm, and11mm--in single-use, sterile packaging. The screw head has an internal .021" Ă&#x2014; .025" slot, an external slot of the same dimensions, and an .025" round vertical slot.

It comes in three heights to fit soft tissues of different thicknesses: regular, with a thicker head and an intermediate-length collar; low profile, with a thinner head and a longer collar; and low profile flat, with the same thin head and a shorter collar .All three types are small enough to avoid soft-tissue irritation, but wide enough for orthodontic loading. The biocompatibility of titanium ensures patient tolerance, and the Spider Screw's smooth, self-tapping surface permits easy removal at the completion of treatment.

Method of Placement The placement site should have enough bone depth to accommodate the screw length and at least 2.5-3mm of bone width to protect adjacent dental roots and anatomic structures such as the maxillary sinus or the inferior alveolar nerve. Typical insertion areas include the maxillary tuberosity, the retromolar areas, edentulous ridges, interradicular septi, the palate, and the anterior alveolar processes above the apices. A water-cooled 1.5mm pilot drill with a stop corresponding to the length of the Spider Screw is used to perforate the soft tissue and cortical bone . A low-speed hand piece should be used straight for anterior locations or contraangular for buccal or posterior locations..

The Spider Screw is mounted on the pick-up device of a low speed contraangle for insertion at about 30rpm . A manual screwdriver is then used for final turning until the screw collar reaches its ideal position.If the screw location is surrounded by mucosa, a small, 5mm vertical incision can be made and the flaps separated without removing tissue or denuding alveolar bone. In areas where the bone is extremely compact, initial placement can be facilitated by using a 1.8mm bur to drill deeper and reach less compact bone.

Once the screw has been inserted-especially in sites with poor bone quality it must be loaded immediately to promote mechanical stability. Because miniscrews rely on mechanical retention rather than osseointegration for their anchorage, the orthodontic force should be perpendicular to the direction of screw placement. Applied forces can range from 50g to 200g, depending on the quality of the bone and the orthodontic movement desired.If any mobility is noted immediately after placement or during tooth movement, the screw should be inserted deeper into the bone, or replaced with a longer screw to engage the opposite plate of cortical bone. For the first seven days, the patient should rinse with a 12% chlorhexadine solution. The Spider Screw is easily removed with a manual screwdriver, without local anesthetic in most cases

MINISCREW ANCHORAGE SYSTEM(M.A.S) Developed by Incorvati ,Carano and et al Appliance design The screws used in the M.A.S. system are made of medical grade 5 titanium, they have a conical profile and are available in three diameters. Type A has a 1.3 mm diameter at the height of the neck of the implant, and 1.1 mm at the tip. Type B has a 1.5 mm diameter at the neck and 1.3 mm at the tip. The overall length for both Type A and Type B is 11.0 mm. Type C has a 1.5 mm at the neck and 1.3 mm at the tip with 9mm of total length.

The head has a shape of two spheres ( 2.0 mm the lower sphere and 2.2mm the upper) that are fused together, with an internal hexagon for the insertion of the screw driver. There is a 0.6 mm aperture placed perpendicular to the length of the screw where a ligature wire or auxiliary monkey hook can be attached. In the junction point between the two circles, a slot is present for the attachment of elastics, chains or coil springs

ADVANTAGE OF MINISCREW ANCHORAGE SYSTEM: . Independency from the number or position of the present teeth . Optimal use of the pulling forces . Independency from patient cooperation . Patient comfort . Shorter treatment time (not need to prepare dental anchorage) . Easyand fast screw insertion . Possible application even in interceptive therapy Advantages when compared with other osteointegrated systems: . VersatiIity in the insertion sites . Easyinsertion and removal . Immediate loading . Application in growing patients . Lowcost www.indiandentalacademy.com
Some potential complications common to other implant procedure are: . Lesions of some anatomic structures like nerves, vessels, dental roots. . Loss of the screw during the placement or during loading were lost during loading) . Inflammation around the implant site . Breakage of the screw within the bone duringinsertion or removal. This complication has probably be due to the use of screws with a small diameter

CLINICAL APPLICATION Closure of Space For posterior space closure the anterior-posterior location of the miniscrew is between roots of the first molars and the second bicuspids roots. Vertically the miniscrew should be located at or above the mucogingival line depending on the desired line of action. For intrusion and distalization â&#x20AC;&#x201C;above the mucogingival line For distal movement â&#x20AC;&#x201C;at level of the mucogingival line Higher the screw in the maxilla the more perpendicular it is inorder to avoid damage to the maxillary sinus .Ideally it is 30- 40 degrees . In case the alveolar process is to prominent an auxillary attachment (monkey hook) is used it avoids discomfort and possible ulceration of the gums. In the mandibular arch care should be done to avoid the mental foramen.

Symmetric intrusion of the incisors To intrude the upper incisors the screw is placed between the upper lateral incisors and the canines. The placement of the mini-screws should be done after leveling and alignment, in order to maximize the interadicular space at the placement site. In order to avoid tipping the upper incisors buccally during the intrusion, the end of thearchwire should be cinched back

Correction of the cant of the plane of occlusion and of the dental midline The miniscrew is used to intrude the extruded canines and the laterals on the side of the cant, and to center the dental midline . During the intrusive movements, it is very important to center the mini-screws in between the roots of the teeth that need to be intruded in order to avoid the interferences between the teeth and the screw.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
Molar intrusion It is very hard to place the micro-screws precisely between the roots of first and second molars without interfering with the roots of the teeth either during implantation or during the intrusive movements. Moreover, sometimes the intrusion force need to be relatively high and more than one screw might be necessary in places where there is insufficient space available for the screw placement. For the above reasons it is suggested to limit the use of the miniscrews to cases where simple molar intrusion of one or two teeth

Molar mesialization MAS is placed mesial to the space to be closed, at a height that facilitates a vector of force approximating the center or resistance of the molar, dental tipping can be avoided. The MAS can be placed after the initial leveling and aligning phase has been completed, so to use a full size arch wire that will prevent the mesial crown tipping of the molar during the space closure. The mesial movements are usually very slow especially in the lower arch so not more than 2-3 mm of mesial molar movement should be attempted.

CONCLUSION Implants for the purpose of conserving anchorage are welcome additions to the armamentarium of a clinical Orthodontist. They help the Orthodontist to overcome the challenge of unwanted reciprocal tooth movement. The presently available implant systems are bound to change and evolve into more patient friendly and operator convenient designs.Long-term clinical trials are awaited to establish clinical guidelines in using implants for both orthodontic and orthopedic anchorage.
