It has always
been a real challenge to control molar position when all teeth are
not banded/bonded. But, in many cases it
is advantageous not to band/bond all teeth – particularly when the
second molars are normally positioned from the start. An approach
will be discovered that not only offers control of molar position,
but eliminates the need for lingual arches or second molar banding
– when no movement is required. This will not have been taught in
the academic world.
The exposure to “Force Driven Archwires,”
instead of “Shape Driven Archwires,” may result in questioning the need
for prescription brackets. There is no need to alter one’s choice
of brackets (single wing or twin), slot sizes, etc., but it should
be both convenient and less expensive to avoid use of the many
devices used in combination with bracket therapy.
Discover how
molar control bends can successfully treat palatal contrictions with archwires
only. This is a highly successful approach that simply has not been
taught.
Never again should crossbite elastics –
and therefore, patient cooperation – be required for correction of
a crossbite. Crossbites
can be corrected with the use of molar control bends.
