INTRODUCTION: Interceptive treatment of Class II, Division 1 malocclusion is a challenge orthodontists commonly face due to the different growth patterns they come across and the different treatment strategies they have available.OBJECTIVE: To report five cases of interceptive orthodontics performed with the aid of Klammt's elastic open activator (KEOA) to treat Class II, Division 1 malocclusion.METHODS: Treatment comprehends one or two phases; and the use of functional orthopedic appliances, whenever properly recommended, is able to minimize dentoskeletal discrepancies with consequent improvement in facial esthetics during the first stage of mixed dentition. The triad of diagnosis, correct appliance manufacture and patient's compliance is imperative to allow KEOA to contribute to Class II malocclusion treatment.RESULTS: Cases reported herein showed significant improvement in skeletal, dental and profile aspects, as evinced by cephalometric analysis and clinical photographs taken before, during and after interceptive orthodontics.

AbstractIntroductionThe adequate indications for the timing of treatment for Class II malocclusion are mandatory for the ethical and efficient practice of orthodontics, but clinicians are reluctant to accept new information that contradicts their preferred method of treatment.ObjectiveThe aim of this investigation was to assess the agreement regarding the indications for Class II malocclusion interceptive therapy between a group of international opinion-makers on early treatment and a group of orthodontists and to compare their treatment indications with the current evidence-based knowledge.Material and methodAn electronic survey containing photographs of mild, moderate and severe Class II malocclusions in children was sent to two panels of experts. Panel 1 (n=28) was composed of international orthodontists who had authored world-class publications on early orthodontic treatment, and Panel 2 (n=261) was composed of clinical orthodontists. Based on a 5-point Likert-type scale, the orthodontists selected their therapy option for each of the 9 Class II malocclusion cases.ResultThe Class II malocclusion treatment recommendations of Panel 2 were significantly different from those offered by Panel 1 with a skew of at least 1 scale point toward earlier treatment. The Class II malocclusion treatment recommendations of the members of Panel 1 members were in accordance with contemporary evidence-based knowledge.ConclusionClass II malocclusion overtreatment appears to be the tendency among clinical orthodontists but not among orthodontists who are academically involved with early treatment. There is a gap between the scientific knowledge and the practices of orthodontists.

To develop preventive and interceptive strategies in orthodontics is necessary to know the prevalence of malocclusion of the population in which is intended to introduce these measures. The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of malocclusion in schoolchildren of 6 and 12 year-old from Choshuenco and Neltume 2015, belonging to the commune of Panguipulli, Chile. A descriptive study of census was conducted. The total sample was 91 children and adolescents enrolled in educational institutions in the towns of Choshuenco and Neltume. A visual clinical examination was performed to determine the number of individual malocclusions according to the method of Björk et al. (1964). For data analysis descriptive statistic was performed using Excel program. Prevalence of malocclusions was 60 % at 6 years and 91.3 % at 12 years. Prevalence data exceed those reported nationwide so it is necessary to reinforce promotional measures in the population and promote preventive - interceptive actions taking place in these locations.

Interceptive orthodontics in mixed dentition period of children is practiced to prevent the severity of incurred malocclusion at an incipient juncture of life. Identifying malocclusion at a very early phase and diagnosing it at right age can help the pediatric dentists to achieve stability as far as the treatment is concerned. Mesiodens is a common type of supernumerary tooth which is found commonly in the incisor region of oral cavity. This anomalous occurrence can lead to varied complications like unerupted teeth, displaced teeth etc. This case report deciphers a case of mesiodens causing anterior teeth malocclusion and its management by 2 x 4 Orthodontic appliance.

Background and Overview. Lingual eruption of the permanent maxillary central incisors in the early mixed dentition can result in a traumatic anterior crossbite, causing mobility and gingival recession to the opposing mandibular incisors.Case Description. This case report presents a common finding of a 7-year-old boy with a dental crossbite and pseudo-Class III malocclusion caused by lingual eruption of the maxillary central incisors. An interceptive phase of orthodontic treatment was provided by bonding a beveled resin turbo on the mandibular incisors. The crossbite was corrected in 3 months without any orthodontic appliances. In the absence of the traumatic occlusion, the mandibular incisors stabilized and the gingival tissue was expected to regenerate.Conclusions and Practical Implications. Dentists and orthodontists can place beveled resin turbos on the mandibular incisors to jump an anterior dental crossbite conservatively, without the use of orthodontic brackets and wires.

Adequate planning and early treatment of Angle Class II malocclusion with maxillary atresia and anterior open bite provides harmonization of maxillomandibular bone bases in the three planes of space. Orthodontic aligners have emerged as an alternative treatment having the following advantages: being more aesthetic and more comfortable for the patient, less treatment time when they are correctly indicated, less chairside time, less complications, possibility of remote monitoring, easier feeding, and dental hygiene. On the other hand, they offer difficulties to treat adults with severe skeletal Class II malocclusions, posterior crossbite and anterior open bite. Therefore, the objective of this clinical case report is to early correct skeletal Class II malocclusion with maxillary atresia through the use of mechanical orthopedics and devices that help eliminate habits and close the anterior open bite, and later the use of orthodontic aligners to finish the treatment. It was concluded that the early interceptive treatment of malocclusion was efficient to harmonize the bone bases in the anteroposterior, vertical, and transversal directions, changing this malocclusion from high to low complexity and, consequently, highly predictable and with an excellent prognosis for treatment with orthodontic aligners. The treatment with ClearCorrect aligners corrected the occlusion in a shorter period of time when compared to corrective orthodontics and with a high predictability in relation to the virtual setup.

Anterior open bite (AOB) is a malocclusion that generates aesthetic, speech, feeding and psychological issues, a fact that emphasises the importance of conducting early treatments to fix the disorder. Finger-sucking, pacifiers and oral habits are the main aetiological factors of AOB; thus, it is necessary to apply interceptive treatments focused on correcting and improving bite stability during childhood in order prevent the need of undergoing advanced therapy. The aim of this article is to present the early diagnosis of aetiological factors causing severe AOB and the interceptive treatment based on the use of bonded lingual spurs for one year. Results showed excellent bite stability after two years of follow-up; in other words, the proper treatment applied for the recommended growth and developmental periods enabled case stability.

SUMMARY Introduction Malocclusion is common in children and it has great influence on the quality of life of patients. The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of malocclusion among 11-13 years old children in the municipality of Foca in Republika Srpska. Material and Methods The study included 81 respondents, 11-13 years old. It was conducted in elementary schools in the municipality of Foča. Respondents underwent clinical examination, alginate impressions of upper and lower jaws were taken and study models analyzed. To determine malocclusion (crowding, spacing, cross bite, deep bite, open bite and occlusion class as per Angle) ICON index (Index of Complexity, Outcome and Need) was used. Results The results showed that 17.3% of respondents had spacing between teeth, 80.2% crowding, 23.4% cross bite, 29.6% deep bite while open bite was present in 2.4% of patients. Occlusion II/1 class by Angle was present in 38.3% of respondents, II/2 class in 12.3% of respondents, Class I occlusion in 40.7% of respondents and III class was found in 2.4% of respondents. Conclusion There was high prevalence of malocclusion in the examined children. It is necessary to implement prevention programs, early treatment of dental caries, prevent premature tooth loss as well as measures of interceptive orthodontics in order to reduce frequency of malocclusion

Resumo: O presente estudo objetivou analisar a efetividade do aparelho extrabucal (AEB), por meio de avaliação cefalométrica, em 40 telerradiografias, obtidas em norma lateral, de jovens do sexo feminino, com média de idade 9,15 anos, em fase de dentição mista, com maloclusão de Classe II, 1ª divisão dentária, subdivididas em 20 ao início do tratamento e 20 ao final. Anteriormente ao tratamento, as jovens apresentaram um padrão dolicofacial de crescimento, equilíbrio entre a altura facial superior e inferior, com índice de altura facial suavemente aumentado. A maxila mostrava-se bem posicionada em relação à porção média da base do crânio, com sua dimensão ântero-posterior próximo à normalidade, apenas com leve desarmonia entre as bases apicais. O tratamento ortodôntico envolveu a utilização do AEB, tração alta, com 350g de força, de cada lado, de 14-18 horas diárias, durante 22,35 meses. Avaliaram-se os valores de: SN.GoGn, FMA, N-ENA, ENAMe, IAF, Fg-S, S-Fpm,, Fpm-ENA, SNA, SNB, ANB, Fpm-6, 1.NA, 1-NA, 1.PP. As radiografias, em sua totalidade, foram traçadas duas vezes pelo mesmo pesquisador, e empregou-se a fórmula de Dalhberg para verificar a ocorrência ou não de erro do método. Os resultados revelaram um erro casual menor que 1,5º e 1,0mm, indicando confiabilidade dos dados obtidos. Os valores médios de cada grandeza cefalométrica submeteram-se ao teste paramétrico ¿t¿ de Student, que revelou que o padrão de crescimento não se modificou com o tratamento. O equilíbrio entre altura facial superior e inferior manteve-se. A relação das bases apicais se alterou favoravelmente, reduzindo o valor de ANB. Ocorreu restrição do deslocamento anterior da maxila, e sua dimensão ântero-posterior aumentou suavemente. O molar superior permanente distalizou efetivamente e os incisivos se retroposicionaram em suas bases apicais. O presente estudo sugeriu que o tratamento precoce da maloclusão de Classe II, 1ª divisão dentária utilizando AEB, tração alta, atingiu seus objetivos corrigindo o posicionamento dos molares e incisivos, além de melhorar a relação entre as bases apicais, favorecendo então uma segunda fase de tratamento ortodôntico quando necessário
Abstract: The present study aimed to analyze the effectiveness of the extraoral force (AEB), through an cephalometric evaluation, in 40 lateral cephalograms, 20 pre and 20 post treatment, of girls, with age¿s ranged from 9.15 years, in the mixed dentition, with Classe II, division 1 malocclusion. Initially, the girls presented a dolicofacial skeletal growth pattern, equilibrium among the superior and inferior facial height, facial height index increased. The maxilla was well positioned in relation to the medium portion of the base of the cranium, the anteroposterior dimension is normal; the jaw relationship (ANB) was deficient. The headgear appliance, with traction occiptal, with 350g of force, bilaterally, for 14 hours daily rates, was used for 22.35 months. It was evaluated the values of: SN.GoGn, FMA, N-ENA, ENA-me, IAF, Fg-S, S-Fpm, Fpm-ENA, SNA, SNB, ANB, Fpm-6, 1.NA, 1-NA, 1.PP. The lateral cephalograms, in your totality, were traced twice by the same researcher, and the Dalhberg index was used to verify the occurrence or not the mistake occurrence. The results revealed a smaller casual mistake than 1.5° and 1.0mm, indicating reliability of the obtained data. The medium values of each greatness cefalometric underwent the parametric test ¿t¿ of Student. The data base revealed that the growth pattern didn't modify with the treatment. The balance between superior facial height and inferior stayed. The jaw relationship changes positively, reducing the value of ANB.

Previous issue date: 2010-04-16The objective of this retrospective study was to compare the occlusal efficiency of orthopedic treatments using the Fränkel-2 regulator (RF 2) and Balters Bionator functional appliances, treated during different dental development stages, and compare them to a control group. The sample consisted of 45 documented records, belonging to the Dental School graduate program with a concentration area in orthodontics at the Methodist University of São Paulo. All records featured an initial Class II division 1 bilateral malocclusion. Of these, 15 patients were treated with the Bionator (group 1), with average initial age of 8.56 years and 80% of cases in dental development stage-2 (DS 2); 15 patients were treated with RF 2 (group 2), with average initial age of 10.71 years and 80% of cases in dental development stage -3 (DS 3); and a control group with 15 patients (group 3), with average initial age of 10.03 years and with dental development stage compatible both with groups 1 and 2. The groups were divided into two phases, according to the evaluation period: T1: beginning of treatment, and T2: final treatment, totaling 90 pairs of models. The occlusal evaluations were performed in plaster models, using the PAR index with the aid of the PAR ruler and a properly calibrated digital micrometer caliper. For intergroup comparison, ANOVA and Tukey test were used. The severity of the malocclusions (INITIAL PAR) was similar in all groups; however, the final PAR index showed a statistically significant difference, in which the percentile reduction for the PAR index was 20.72% for group 1, 60.06% for group 2, and no significant difference in the final PAR index for group 3. The present study concludes that the treatment for Class II division 1 malocclusion is more efficient when is begins during dental development stage-3 (DS 3) than in dental development stage-2 (DS 2). Moreover, importance is given to a more prolonged use of the dental appliance, as patients in group 2 showed better occlusal results.(AU)
O objetivo deste estudo retrospectivo foi comparar a eficiência oclusal do tratamento ortopédico com os aparelhos funcionais Regulador de Função Fränkel-2 e Bionator de Balters em um estágio de desenvolvimento dental diferente e comparar com um grupo controle. A amostra constituiu-se de 45 registros de documentações, pertencentes ao arquivo do programa de pós-graduação em Odontologia, área de concentração Ortodontia, da Universidade Metodista de São Paulo, com má oclusão inicial de Classe II bilateral, divisão 1, sendo 15 pacientes provenientes do grupo tratados com Bionator (grupo 1) com média de idade incial de 8,56 anos e com 80% dos casos em um estágio de desenvolvimento dental-2 (DS 2), 15 pacientes tratados com RF-2 (grupo 2) com média de idade inicial de 10,71 anos e com 80% dos casos em um estágio de desenvolvimento dental-3 (DS 3), e 15 pacientes controle (grupo 3) com media de idade incial de 10,03 anos e com estágio de desenvolvimento dental compatível com os grupos 1 e 2. Os grupos foram divididos em duas fases, de acordo com o período de avaliação: T1:início de tratamento e T2: final de tratamento, totalizando 90 pares de modelos. As avaliações oclusais foram realizadas em modelos de gesso, utilizando o Índice PAR com auxílio da régua PAR e de um paquímetro digital devidamente calibrado. Para comparação entre os três grupos foi utilizado Análise de Variância a um critério e em seguida o Teste de Tukey. A severidade da má oclusão (PAR Inicial) foi semelhante em ambos os grupos, porém, o PAR final apresentou uma diferença estatisticamente significante onde o percentual de redução do índice PAR para o grupo 1 foi de 20,72%, para o grupo 2 foi de 60,06% e no grupo 3 não houve alteração significante do valor do Índice PAR. O presente estudo conclui que o tratamento da má oclusão de Classe II, 1a divisão é mais eficiente quando iniciado no estágio de desenvolvimento dental 3 (DS 3) do que no estágio de desenvolvimento dental 2 (DS2). Além disso, ressalta-se a importância do uso mais prolongado do aparelho ortopédico, já que os pacientes do grupo 2 apresentaram melhores resultados oclusais.(AU)

>Magister Scientiae - MScBackground In the Western-Cape province, orthodontic treatment provided to government patients is limited to tertiary hospitals such as the Tygerberg Oral Health Centre (TOHC). This results in growing waiting lists which place a huge strain on resources of the facility. Objectives To determine: 1. The prevalence of malocclusion among 7-to-10-year-old children examined at dental clinics within the Tygerberg sub-district. 2. The types of malocclusion they present with. 3. Which of these malocclusions can be treated with interceptive orthodontic treatment. Methods An analytical, descriptive, cross-sectional study was carried out and quantitative methods were used to achieve the aim and objectives. The study sample consisted of 100 children, 46 male and 54 female, from Bellville and Bishop Lavis dental clinics. Dental examinations were done by one examiner on children between the ages of 7 and 10 years. Dental problems were identified which, if left untreated, could result in the need for more complex orthodontic treatment at a later stage. All the necessary ethical clearance was obtained. Results The results showed that there is a very large interceptive orthodontic treatment need (79%) at these clinics. A large proportion (70%) presented with detrimental habits. Thumbsucking was more prevalent among girls than boys. Other problems like mouthbreathing, lip wedging, deep bite, asymmetrical mobility of primary teeth, rotated lateral incisors and crossbites were found. The biggest concern was that 71% of the children had early loss of primary teeth and only 5% of children received restorations, resulting in a high prevalence of unfavourable molar relationships. All of these should be addressed early, thereby preventing the development of complex orthodontic problems or skeletal discrepancies. iv Conclusion Interceptive and preventive orthodontic treatment should be regarded as a primary health centre service, as it may reduce the need for costly fixed orthodontic treatment. The study showed that urgent intervention is necessary from the Department of Health to address this issue.

Introdução: A avaliação do crescimento e desenvolvimento craniofacial das crianças é idealmente multidisciplinar. É fundamental a integração das diferentes áreas médicas para um correto planeamento estético e funcional do sistema estomatognático. Os tratamentos intercetivos estão integrados num conjunto de abordagens específicas onde a odontopediatria e a ortodontia atuam, evitando a progressão de uma má-oclusão através da remoção de hábitos deletérios, da colocação de aparelhos ou rampas/pistas. O principal objetivo deste estudo foi verificar, através de uma análise observacional descritiva transversal, a importância dos tratamentos intercetivos em odontopediatria, avaliando os conhecimentos e as práticas dos médicos dentistas perante cada criança.
Material e métodos: Realizaram-se 3 questionários. O questionário I foi divulgado online e direcionado a médicos dentistas, alcançando 206 profissionais. Os questionários II e III foram efetuados pelo método de entrevista, obtendo-se 10 participantes em cada. O questionário II foi dirigido a crianças submetidas a tratamentos intercetivos e o questionário III aos respetivos encarregados de educação.
Resultados: 20,4% da amostra não consulta pacientes pediátricos, pelo que a nossa amostra para as questões mais relevantes foi de 164 participantes. Todos estes (100%, n=164) consideraram saber o que são tratamentos do foro intercetivo, sendo que 56,7% (n=93) não aconselhou a execução destes em pacientes com má higiene oral. No entanto, referiram como fator mais relevante para a sua realização a necessidade funcional do paciente (79,9%). São ainda os profissionais que exercem há mais anos que privilegiam o tratamento em colaboração com terapeutas da fala (p-value=0,004) e otorrinolaringologistas (p-value=0,001). Verifica-se que os médicos dentistas não generalistas não consideram tanto o fator custo para a realização de tratamentos do foro intercetivo comparativamente com os generalistas (p-value=0,018).
Quase todas as crianças questionadas (n=9) consideraram o tratamento de fácil adaptação. Também os seus encarregados, na sua totalidade (n=10), acharam que a adaptação dos seus filhos face ao tratamento executado foi boa.
Conclusões: Os tratamentos intercetivos são uma realidade sólida praticada por médicos dentistas generalistas, odontopediatras e ortodontistas. A grande maioria dos casos de má-oclusão quando diagnosticada precocemente pode ser intercetada, tentando evitar tratamentos corretivos mais complexos.Introduction: The craniofacial growth assessment and development of children is ideally multidisciplinary. The integration of the different medical areas is fundamental for a correct esthetic and functional planning of the stomatognathic system. Interceptive treatments are integrated in a set of specific approaches where pediatric dentistry and orthodontics work, avoiding malocclusion progression through the removal of deleterious habits, appliance placement or ramps/lanes. The main objective of this study was to verify, through a transverse descriptive observational analysis, interceptive treatments importance in pediatric dentistry, evaluating the knowledge and practices of the dentists. Material and methods: Three questionnaires were carried out. Questionnaire I was published online and directed to dentists, reaching 206 professionals. Questionnaires II and III were performed by the interview method, obtaining 10 participants in each. Questionnaire II was directed to children undergoing interceptive treatments and Questionnaire III to their parents. Results: 20.4% of the sample did not consult pediatric patients, so our sample for the most relevant questions was of 164 participants. All of these (100%, n = 164) considered knowing what interceptive treatments are, and 56.7% (n = 93) did not advise their implementation in patients with poor oral hygiene. However, the functional need of the patient (79.9%) was the most relevant factor. Treatment in collaboration with speech therapists (p-value = 0.004) and otorhinolaryngologists (p-value = 0.001) is prefered by professionals who have been practicing for more years. It can be seen that non-generalists dentists do not consider the cost factor for the intersegmental treatments as compared to generalists (p-value = 0,018). Almost all children (n = 9) considered the treatment easy to adapt. All of their caretakers (n = 10), said that their children 's adaptation to the treatment was good. Conclusions: Interceptive treatments are a solid reality practiced by general dentists, pediatric dentists and orthodontists. The vast majority of malocclusion cases when early diagnosed can be intercepted, trying to avoid more complex corrective treatments.
