An Improved Technique for Bringing of the Buccally Second Molars to the Occlusion
Journal Title: Modern Approaches in Dentistry and Oral Health Care - Year 2018, Vol 1, Issue 5
Abstract
Buccally posioned teeth are parts of malocclusion which is commonly encountered in clinical cases. Treatment of these teeth can be difficult and time consuming, depending on their relationships to the counter teeth. In this pearl, we described that how the second molar tooth positioned at the scissor bite can be brought to the occlusion without leading to the handicaps. Inclusion of the buccally positioned second molar teeth to the fixed treatment leads posterior dental expansion. When the expansion is occurring, palatal cusps of the buccal teeth tilt into the under the occlusal line. Especially in openbite or openbite tendency cases, this can make the situation worse. In this pearl, we described that how the second molar tooth positioned at the scissor bite can be brought to the occlusion without leading to the aforementioned handicaps. With this technique, the tooth is not only brought to the occlusion. In addition to that, sagged palatal cusps of the tooth can be intruded. Thus, since there will be no clashing of the cusps, there is no need for using the auxiliary bite opening mechanics while bringing.
