Abstract:
Abstract Objective Appliances used in preventive and interceptive orthodontics, which are often provided to correct or intercept a specific malocclusion or habit, may be detrimental. to a child's oral health. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of intra oral appliance wear on the plaque index, gingival index, bleeding on probing, and on levels of salivary Streptococcus mutans. Materials and Methods A total of 60 children requiring any preventive or interceptive orthodontic treatment (appliance therapy) were randomly divided into two groups, as fixed orthodontic appliance group (n = 30) and removable appliance group (n = 30). Preoperative and post operative assessments of patients were done before and after wearing appliances. Assessment was done by determining oral hygiene status and microbiological evaluation of saliva for S. mutans count. S. mutans colonies were counted from saliva cultured on mitis-salivarius-bacitracin (MSB) agar. Statistical Analysis Data that are continuous in nature were summarized as standard deviation and mean. For “within group” comparisons, paired t-tests were used to analyze the continuous data. For “between group” comparisons, unpaired t-tests and Fisher's exact test were used to analyze the continuous data. Results Appliance treatment increases plaque and gingival indices. Plaque and gingival index changes 1 month after deployment of both fixed and removable appliances were essentially the same and statistically non-significant with p-values of 0.412 and 0.965. Bleeding on probing after insertion of both appliances was not statistically significant (p=0.423). S. mutans numbers increased following removable and fixed orthodontics. Fixed appliances had more S. mutans than removable appliances (p=0.014). Conclusion The inherent levels of these microorganisms are related with plaque accumulation due to fixed or removable appliances. Increase in the level of plaque and microorganisms after fixed and removable appliance therapy can hamper optimum oral health and thus is a concern for pedodontists. During orthodontic therapy, cariogenic pathogens should be reviewed, and to prevent cariogenic pathogens from increasing and to maintain oral hygiene during orthodontic treatment, proper recall visits, patient and parent education, and regular fluoride application are essential.

Abstract:
OBJECTIVES: To determine the frequency of emergencies in patients with fixed and removable orthodontic appliances at tertiary care dental hospital. METHODOLOGY: A questionnaire was designed for this descriptive cross-sectional study to be filled by the clinician (L3/L4 FCPS resident) at the end of addressing every orthodontic emergency. Sampling was done under consecutive non-probability protocols. Descriptive statistics were applied to determine the frequency of different orthodontic emergencies, and Pearson’s chi-square test was applied to determine association of emergencies with gender and etiology of emergency (patient related vs operator related). Data was analyzed on SPSS version 20. RESULTS: A total of 175 patients reported with orthodontic emergencies. The sample comprised 38.3% males and 61.7% females. Most frequent orthodontic emergency reported was deboned brackets in fixed appliances, while the most common emergency in removable appliances was traumatic PNAM. A statistically significant association (Pearson’s Chi Square=4.74, Cramer’s V=0.165, p=0.029) was seen for removable and fixed appliance emergencies with males and females. CONCLUSION: Most frequent fixed appliance orthodontic emergencies were deboned brackets while for removable appliance emergencies were trauma due to PNAM. Emergencies with removable appliances were mostly due to the operator related factors, while in fixed appliances patient related factors were dominating.

Abstract:
At present, fixed orthodontic appliances treatment is extensively utilized with excellent outcome. Nevertheless, complications frequently arise following the conclusion of orthodontic treatment, predominanly relapse. Relapse refers to repositioning teeth to their pre-treatment state; its progression is stochastic, thereby rendering relapse possible for each individual. Patients who fail to wear retainers consistently will relapse of the affected teeth after orthodontic treatment. Therefore, this case report details the successful treatment of tooth relapse with a removable orthodontic appliance. A 22-year-old female patient complained of irregular alignment of her lower front teeth. The patient received two years of treatment with fixed orthodontics; however, she ceased using retainers regularly after treatment concluded. An objective examination indicated that the teeth in the upper jaw teeth remain in a well-aligned position; however, the lower jaw exhibited that tooth 32 was mesiolabiotorsiversion, tooth 33 was distolinguotorsiversion, tooth 41 was labioversion, tooth 42 was mesiolinguotorsiversion, with an overjet of 3 mm and an overbite of 2 mm. Afterward, the malposition of the lower jaw teeth was corrected with an expansion plate for a removable orthodontic appliance. Following 20 follow-up treatments over five months, the malposition of the lower jaw teeth has been corrected. As a result, it can be deduced that removable orthodontic appliances continue to be efficacious in rectifying mild malposition caused by dental relapse, thereby obviating patients' need to reapply costly fixed orthodontic appliances.

Abstract:
This paper demonstrates a digital manufacturing technique of a removable orthodontic appliance from an intraoral scan. An intraoral scan was made for the maxillary and mandibular arches. 3Shape Orthodontics Appliance Designer produced the virtual Hawley retainer, consisting of alloy components (Adam Clasps and Fitted Labial bow) and a base plate. The base plate design was modified to adapt to inserting the alloy components, which were combined using cold-cured acrylic. The finished Hawley retainer was assessed intraorally. The described technique emphasizes the design specifications of digitally designed and manufactured removable orthodontic appliances. A combination of additive and subtractive techniques was successfully employed to manufacture the alloy components and base plate. This novel method provides an alternative approach to manufacturing removable appliances with computer-aided design (CAD)/computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) technologies. The described process offers a precursor to digital manufacturing of other developed designs of dental appliances.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT Objective: To determine whether orthodontic treatment with removable aligners vs fixed orthodontic appliances is associated with a different frequency of orthodontically induced external apical root resorption (OIEARR) when genetic, radiographic, and clinical factors are accounted for. Materials and Methods: Three hundred seventy-two orthodontic patients treated with removable aligners (Invisalign) or fixed appliances were genetically screened for interleukin 1B gene (IL1B) (rs1143634), interleukin 1 receptor antagonist gene (IL1RN) (rs419598), and osteopontin gene (SPP1) (rs9138/rs11730582). Twelve clinical variables, potentially associated with OIEARR, were also considered. Subjects were divided according to the presence of radiographically determined OIEARR (>2 mm). The association between OIEARR and appliance type, and radiographic, clinical and genetic factors, was assessed using backward stepwise conditional logistic regression. Odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were reported. Results: Reliability of the methods was adequate. Clinical case complexity (American Board of Orthodontics [ABO] Discrepancy Index) (OR: 1.032; 95% CI: 1.005–1.061; P = .021) and extent of incisor apical displacement in the sagittal plane (OR: 1.478; 95% CI: 1.285–1.699; P = .001) were associated with an increased OIEARR risk. After adjusting for associations between clinical/radiographic/genetic factors, there were no statistically significant differences with respect to OIEARR or type of orthodontic appliance used, whether removable aligners or fixed appliances (OR: 1.662; 95% CI: 0.945–2.924; P = .078). Only subjects homozygous for the T allele of IL1RN (rs419598) were more prone to OIEARR during orthodontic treatment (OR: 3.121; CI: 1.93–5.03; P < .001). Conclusions: A similar OIEARR predisposition was identified using either removable aligners (Invisalign) or fixed appliances.

Abstract:
Traditionally oral appliances i.e. removable orthodontic appliances, bite splints and snoring / sleep apnea appliances are made with alginate impressions and wax registrations. Our aim was to describe the process of manufacturing customized oral appliances with a new technique i.e. rapid tooling method. The appliance should ideally be custom made to match the teeth. An orthodontic patient, scheduled for conventional orthodontic treatment, served as a study subject. After a precise clinical and radiographic examination, the approach was to digitize the patient’s dental arches and then to correct them virtually by computer. Additive manufacturing was then used to fabricate a mould for a soft customized appliance. The mould was manufactured using stereolithography from Somos ProtoGen O-XT 18420 material. Casting material for the mould to obtain the final appliance was silicone. As a result we managed to create a customized soft orthodontic appliance. Also, the accuracy of the method was found to be adequate. Two versions of the described device were manufactured: one with small and one with moderate orthodontic force. The study person also gave information on the subjective patient adaptation aspects of the oral appliance.

Abstract:
Summary. Modern protocols on providing orthodontic care of children with anomalies and secondary dento-maxillaire deformities include the use of functional- guiding and mechanically-operated orthodontic equipment based on specific clinical indications. At the same time, the issues of orthodontic treatment of dento-maxillaire anomalies complicated by dentition defects still remain controversial, as the vast majority of functionally-guiding and mechanically-operated orthodontic equipment does not provide simultaneous replacement of dentition defect, whereas methods of pediatric prosthetics are often limited by the use of claspless removable laminar prostheses. Their functional efficiency is low due to insufficient fixation and the need for periodic replacement due to the growth of jaws in accordance with the age and physiological development of a child’s body. The use of traditional fixed bridge prostheses during the period of jaws growth is unacceptable, whereas the manufacture of split bridge prostheses with an intermediate part in the form of sliding elements, movably interconnected, as well as cantilever bridges, is limited by dentition due to the removal of only one tooth. Orthodontic appliances that meet these requirements, should be used to replace dentition defects, combined with dento-maxillaire anomalies in each period of formation of the dento-maxillaire system, which determines the relevance of our research. Goal. To increase the effectiveness of comprehensive treatment of children with dento-maxillaire anomalies, complicated by dentition defects of the frontal area with the use of a prosthetic appliance of our own design. Materials and methods. To achieve this goal, we examined 115 children aged from 5 to 17 years with dentition defects of the frontal area, who applied to the Department of Orthopedic Dentistry and Orthodontics, Kyiv Medical University. Of these, orthodontic treatment was performed in 64 patients with the use of removable and non-removable orthodontic appliances, including a prosthesis appliance of our own design: «Prosthesis appliance for upper jaw expansion » Ukrainian patent for a utility model № 145538 dated 28.12.2020, which is fixed using orthodontic bands and temporary fixation cement on the second temporary molars. The appliance has a plastic base with a screw, with which, if necessary, it is possible to influence the growth of the jaw. It also has artificial teeth in the frontal area, which are connected to the base, and do not inhibit the growth of the frontal segment of the upper jaw. Results. According to the results of the research it is determined that for each period of formation of the dento-maxillaire system with dento-maxillaire anomalies complicated by dentition defects it is reasonable to apply a personalized approach when conducting psycho-emotional preparation for treatment, oral cavity sanation, placing on myogymnastic exercises and appropriate orthodontic treatment combined with pediatric prosthetics. Traditional removable and non-removable orthodontic appliances as well as appliances of our own design were used to treat this group of people. According to the results of the treatment, the use of a fixed orthodontic appliance of our own design in children of young and middle age, which restores the function of biting food, allows to replace the dentition defect and meet the aesthetic requirements of patients, as well as to conduct continuous orthodontic treatment due to impossibility to remove the appliance. Indications for the use of this prosthesis appliance is the absence of 1 to 4 front teeth with the possibility of correcting the transversal size of the jaws. Our proposed prosthesis appliance meets the requirements and is easy for patients to use. Conclusions. Indications for the use of the prosthesis appliance of our own design is the absence of 1 to 4 front teeth with the possibility of correcting of the transversal size of the jaws. The use of a non-removable prosthesis appliance of our own design in children of young and middle age, which restores the function of biting food, allows to replace the dentition defect, meet the aesthetic requirements of patients, and to conduct continuous orthodontic treatment. Key words: dento-maxillaire anomalies, dentition defect, orthodontic treatment, orthodontic appliances, prosthesis appliance.

Abstract:
The purpose of the study was to increase the effectiveness of orthopedic and orthodontic treatment of children with dentition defects during the period of mixed occlusion to prevent secondary dento-maxillaire deformities. Material and methods. 47 patients aged from 6 to 11 years with dentition defects in the frontal and lateral areas were examined and treated to conduct comparative evaluation of the effectiveness of using removable and non-removable prostheses appliances in patients with dentition defects during the period of mixed occlusion. All the patients were divided into two clinical groups by the design type of a prosthesis appliance, the choice of which depended on the results of a complete clinical research taking into account the location and the length of dentition defects. For group I patients (n=29), we used removable orthodontic prostheses appliances (standard mechanically-operated appliances with artificial teeth), in areas with missing teeth, to regulate the size of upper and lower dentition and replace dentition defects. For group II patients (n=18), we used non-removable orthodontic prostheses appliances (bands with a spacer and a non-removable prosthesis appliance of our own design). At the beginning of treatment and after 3 and 6 months, the assessment of oral hygiene was conducted using Yu. A. Fedorov and V. V. Volodkina indices. Follow-up examinations of patients in both groups were conducted once a month. However, every 3 and 6 months, patients of group I (with removable prosthesis appliances) received repetitive jaw impressions and made control diagnostic models, which measured the size of a dentition defect area to monitor the treatment. The data on control measurements was compared with data obtained at the beginning of the treatment. The criteria for completion of orthodontic treatment were considered to be the regulation of the size of upper and lower dentition and the position of individual teeth, as well as the preservation of the place in the dental arch until the physiological change of prematurely lost teeth. Results and discussion. The main causes of dentition defects occurrence in patients of both groups were the following: premature removal of temporary and permanent teeth due to complications of caries – 39 patients (83.0%), the loss of teeth due to a trauma – 5 patients (10.5%). Dentition defect was caused by adentia – in 2 people (4.3%), by retention – in 1 person (2.1%). We determined that 30 people (63.8%) had defects of the upper jaw, which was the most prevailing dentition defects. Dentition defects in the lateral areas were recorded in 32 people (68.1%). The largest number of dentition defects was of short size – 29 (61.7%). To restore the integrity of the dentition, we made 29 removable prostheses appliances with artificial teeth for group I patients, 9 (31.0%) of them served to replace dentition defects of the frontal area and 20 (69.0%) replaces dentition defects of the lateral area. In order to replace the dentition defect and preserve the place in the dental arch, we made 18 non-removable prostheses appliances for group II patients, 6 (33.3%) of them were of our own design to replace the dentition defect in the frontal area, and 12 (66.7%) replaced teeth gap bands with a spacer for the lateral one. Based on the analysis of these indicators in people with dentition defects who used removable and non-removable appliances, we can conclude, that there is a clear connection between the impact of orthodontic appliances on oral hygiene, depending on its type. The negative dynamics of changes in the hygiene index according to Fedorov-Volodkina in patients with non-removable prostheses appliances can be explained by the deterioration of oral hygiene conditions due to the design features of the appliances and the inability to remove the appliance yourself. Therefore, the use of non-removable appliances requires additional hygienic measures. Removable appliances had almost no effect on the state of oral hygiene, but worked less predictably by reducing the time of their active action in the oral cavity. If children refused to wear removable prostheses and prosthesis appliances, there quickly developed secondary dento-maxillaire deformities, which over time became more stable, and pathological changes were more significant. In group I patients, 6 months after the start of treatment with removable prostheses appliances, the shortening of dentition defects was detected in the frontal area by 1.3±1.1 mm and in the lateral area by 1.2±0.9 mm. Negative changes in the length of the dentition defect in patients of group I before treatment and after 6 months are specifically connected with irresponsible attitude to treatment. Not all patients in this group fully wore removable prostheses appliances, and some of them did not wear at all. Conclusion. Our research showed that removable orthodontic appliances for replacement of dentition defects and prevention of secondary dento-maxillaire deformities could be used in patients of different ages, their special effectiveness was observed in pediatric-age patients, however, only in those who responsibly followed the recommendations of an orthodontist. The use of non-removable orthodontic appliances for replacement of dentition defects and prevention of secondary dento-maxillaire deformities is a more rational choice of dental prosthesis. The prosthesis appliance for the upper jaw developed by us doesn’t inhibit the growth of the jaw, meets all the esthetic and functional requirements applied to these appliances. During treatment with non-removable appliances patients cannot control the time when the appliance “works”, which leads to a more predictable result of treatment

Abstract:
It is of interest to compare two myofunctional appliances (frankal appliance and twin bloc) and two fixed orthodontic appliances (Power Scope and Forsus) in management of class II div 1 malocclusion. A total of 56 Class II division 1 malocclusion patients indicated for treatment with myofunctional appliances and fixed functional appliances were randomized. They were equally divided among frankal appliance (n=14), twin block appliance (n=14), Power Scope (American Orthodontics) (n=14), Forsus (3M Unitek Corp) groups (n=14). Skeletal and dentoalveolar effects of all appliances were compared. SNB increased remarkably by 4.2° in the Twin block group and it was high among all treatment groups. There was a significant decrease in vertical dimensions (SN-GoGn) in the Twin block (p = 0.002). Early treatment of Class II due to mandibular retrusion with Twin block functional appliance is recommended due to its favorable skeletal effect.

Abstract:
Currently, wide arrays of fixed functional appliances are available for the correction of Class II malocclusion. The orthodontist must choose from these appliances depending on the mechanics, efficiency, and cost of the appliance. Fixed functional appliances may reduce the individual visits and hence the cost as compared to the removable appliances. Additionally, it may save the clinician’s chair time. This report discussed the in-house laboratory fabrication and clinical procedure of customized fixed functional appliances by utilizing the readily available dental materials in the orthodontic clinical setting.

Abstract:
INTRODUKTION OCH SYFTE: Tidigare studier av kooperation och ortodonti har visat att ett av de bästa sätten att öka patienternas kooperation är genom att övervaka användningstiden och påminna patienten om att använda sin apparatur. Den här pilotstudiens syfte var att undersöka om någon utav två olika typer av påminnelser objektivt ökar användningstiden vid behandling med avtagbar apparatur eller inte.MATERIAL OCH METOD: 18 patienter i åldrarna 9-14 års ålder från en patientpopulation som behandlades vid avdelningen för Ortodonti, Odontologiska Fakulteten på Malmö Högskola, deltog i studien. Patienterna hade olika typer av bettavvikelser som gjorde dem behandlingsbara med antingen van Beek eller expansionsplåt. Patienterna placerades slumpmässigt in i en av tre grupper, alarm, kalender eller kontrollgrupp. Användningstid registrerades objektivt med en TheraMon®-timermodul som placerades inuti den ortodontiska apparaturens akrylbas.RESULTAT: Alarm-gruppen hade högst genomsnittlig användningstid. Kontrollgruppen hade något lägre användningstid än alarmgrupppen och kalendergruppen hade minst genomsnittlig användningstid. Det var skillnad på de olika behandlingstyperna, då behandlade med expansionsplåt hade bättre genomsnittlig användningstid än patienter behandlade med van Beek. Data testades för statistisk signifikans med Anova och t-test, ingen statistisk signifikans fanns.KONKLUSION: Den här studiens resultat tyder på att en påminnelse i form av ett alarm verkar vara bättre på att öka patienters kooperation än en kalender eller ingen påminnelse alls. Detta indikerar att det finns ett underlag för att i framtida studier vidare undersöka hur påminnelser via mobiltelefon påverkar compliance, till exempel påminnelse via en app. Patienter som behandlas med expansionsplåtar verkar ha en bättre compliance än patienter behandlade med van Beek-aktivatorer, därför bör framtida fokus läggas på att förbättra kooperationen hos patienter som behandlas med van Beek-aktivatorer. Framtida studier bör endast innefatta en typ av ortodontisk apparatur, till exempel van Beek. Fler patienter krävs i framtida studier för att säkerställa statistiskt signifikanta resultat.
INTRODUCTION AND PURPOSE: Earlier studies on compliance and orthodontics have shown that one of the best ways to increase compliance is by supervising the wearing time. Compliance can also be increased by reminding the patient to use the removable appliance. This pilot study aims to investigate if any of two kinds of reminders objectively increase the compliance during orthodontic treatment with removable appliances or not.MATERIALS AND METHODS: 18 patients between 9-14 years of age were selected from a patient population attending the department of Orthodontics, Faculty of Odontology, Malmö University. They presented different types of malocclusion which made them candidates for treatment with either van Beek-appliances or expansion plate. The patients were randomly placed in one of three groups; alarm, calendar or control group. Wearing time was objectively collected from the TheraMon®-module placed inside the acrylic base of the appliances. After the data collecting-phase was finished the data was tested with Anova and t-test to determine whether there was a significant difference between the groups.RESULTS: The alarm group had the highest average wear time. The control group had slightly lower average wear time than the alarm group, and the calendar group had the least amount of average wear time. There was a difference in average wear time between van Beek and expansion plate, with van Beek having a lower average wear time than expansion plate. Patients treated with expansion plates were more cooperative than patients treated with van Beek appliances. When data was tested for significance, no statistical significance was found.CONCLUSION: The study concludes that an alarm type of reminder appears to be better at improving wear time than a calendar or no reminder at all. This indicates that for future studies there might be a reason to develop a reminder for patients, for example an app. The study concludes that patients with expansion plates appear more cooperative than patients using van Beek appliance, so therefore focus should be on improving cooperation for patients using these types of appliances. This study shows that future studies should use one type of appliance, e.g. van Beek. More patients are needed in future studies to achieve statistical significant results.

Abstract:
Halitosis is an unpleasant breath odor; it affects roughly 30-50% of the population. The major compounds that contribute to halitosis that originates from the mouth, typically referred to as oral malodor, are volatile sulfur compounds (VSCs), which are produced by a variety of microorganisms. It has been shown that orthodontic patients with acrylic appliances complain of oral malodor. The source of the odor is in part due to the nature of the appliance, which retains microorganisms that are not removed by mechanical cleaning so typically the addition of an antimicrobial agent, such as Chlorhexidine (CHX) to cleanse the appliances is recommended. However, CHX has some side effects so alternatives need to be explored. Objective: To assess the antimicrobial and the anti-malodor efficacy of a bioflavonoid mouth rinse (BFMR) compared to CHX and water on removable orthodontic appliances. Method: Participants between 8-20 years of age who complained of malodor from their removable orthodontic appliances from the UBC dental clinics and a private orthodontic practice were recruited and blindly randomized into groups in which different mouth rinses were used to soak the appliances for one week (BFMR, Chlorhexidine and water). Baseline and one-week follow-up data collection included the oral hygiene index (OHI), gingival index (GI), tongue coating index (TCI), VSC measurement by gas chromatography, organoleptic assessment, a microbial swab Results: Data was collected from 27 participants ranging in age from 8-16 years old. The baseline measurements of OHI, GI and TCI did not change significantly throughout the study. The organoleptic measurements of odor as well as the aerobic and anaerobic bacterial counts showed a significant reduction in the BFMR group, but for the CHX and water group no significant difference was detected from baseline to follow-up. Conclusion: The BFMR has superior antimicrobial and anti-malodor effect when compared to CHX or to water.

Abstract:
In the last decades, research in the orthodontic field has focused on the development of more comfortable and aesthetic appliances such as thermoformed aligners. Aligners have been used in orthodontics since the mid 20-century. Nonetheless, there is still not enough knowledge about how they interact with teeth. This paper is focused on the development of a Finite Element Method (FEM) model to be used in the optimization process of geometrical attributes of removable aligners. The presented method integrates Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) data and optical data in order to obtain a customized model of the dental structures, which include both crown and root shapes. The digital simulation has been focused on analyzing the behavior of three upper frontal teeth. Moreover, the analyses have been carried out by using different aligners’ thicknesses with the support of composite structures polymerized on teeth surfaces while simulating a 2 degrees rotation of an upper central incisor.
