Archwire shape has been
taught as the best method for obtaining archform
as well as numerous other objectives. Exposure to a “force-driven”
concept is presented, which produces direct and predictable
movement, but totally unlike the “shape-driven” concept that
results in so many unpredictable movements and undesirable
side-effects
These concepts are applied to various extraction cases which will include:
asymmetrical extractions, four first bicuspid extractions, upper
first bicuspid extractions, as well as incisor extractions, etc.
Anchorage concepts are
presented that are altogether different than anything taught in the
world of academics. The beauty and simplicity of applying these
concepts, as well as their effectiveness, is discussed in detail.
No individual will find it necessary to change bracket
prescriptions, wire sizes, etc. in order to benefit from what is
presented. The “neutral slotted” bracket has much more to offer
than previously thought – not to mention that such brackets are far
less expensive than what is being sold today.
The use of vertical forces in the production of anchorage is shown
to be much more effective than the commonly used horizontal forces.
It will be shown that better anchorage can be obtained by
minimizing appliances rather than resorting to full appliances with
the assumption that this produces excellent anchorage.
