The relationship of arch length to alterations in dental arch width

American Journal of Orthodontics and Dentofacial Orthopedics, 2000
An accurate method is presented for forecasting alterations in arch length related to various width increases in each dental arch. It is based on combined beta and hyperbolic cosine functions which express the expanded dental arches with correlation coefficients of r = 0.98, between measured data and representations of the dental arch.

Subapical osteotomy to increase mandibular arch length

American Journal of Orthodontics, 1978
Anterior mandibular subapical osteotomy offers an alternative method of managing selected malocclusions which are associated with minimal to moderate crowding. Persons with a Class II deep bite, dentoalveolar retrusion, normal chin prominence, and deep labiomental fold are potentially good candidates for such treatment.

The Influence of Maxillary Incisor Inclination on Arch Length

British Journal of Orthodontics, 1999
This ex vivo study was designed to investigate Andrews' hypothesis that there is a space implication when incisors are torqued correctly. A working model was constructed to allow acrylic typodont incisors of varying known values of inclination to be substituted into the model.

Integral Arch Bridge of Unlimited Length

2019
When it comes to the construction and maintenance of bridges, integral constructions have many economic advantages. The abutment areas of conventional integral bridges with lengths over 70 m often cause problems due to the length variations caused by temperature changes of the concrete in particular.

Functional maintenance of arch-length.

ASDC journal of dentistry for children, 1984
This article discussed on overall concept of the etiology of arch-length loss, general indications and contraindications for Functional Space Maintenance and described in detail the methods for constructing a Fixed Functional Space Maintainer utilizing stainless steel crowns for abutments and pontics.

Effects of muscular anchorage appliances on deficient mandibular arch length

American Journal of Orthodontics, 1971
Abstract Four cases have been reported to illustrate the change in arch length and the improvement in arch form that can be achieved with the use of a mandibular muscle anchorage appliance (lip bumper). In selected patients with crowded lower arches, the use of such an appliance, properly timed and in conjunction with an accurate diagnosis and ...

The effect of maxillary first molar derotation on arch length

American Journal of Orthodontics and Dentofacial Orthopedics, 1997
In the correction of Class II malocclusions, derotation of the maxillary first molars is required to obtain an idealized Class I relation. Because of its trapezoidal shape, the maxillary first molar is believed to provide an arch length gain attendant to its derotation, which may subsequently be used to resolve deficiencies mesial to it.

Effect of maxillary incisor angulation and inclination on arch length

American Journal of Orthodontics and Dentofacial Orthopedics, 1987
This article discusses the quantitative effects of angulation of incisors on dental arch length. The incisors are approximated mathematically to rectangular shapes, which enables the authors to calculate the change in arch length when teeth are tipped and to describe graphically the effect of other influencing parameters.

Arch Length in Late Lower Arch Crowding

2002
Late lower arch crowding is a problem encountering frequently in orthodontic practice. The controversy about the etiology of late lower arch crowding has not yet been satisfactory resolved. The aim of this study was to examine arch length in two groups of subject, with and without crowding in anterior part of lower arch.

Crozat appliance therapy for an arch-length discrepancy problem

American Journal of Orthodontics and Dentofacial Orthopedics, 1991
The case involved a white male subject, aged 10 years 6 months, with a Class I molar relationship complicated by a deep overbite and impaction of all four permanent canines, which were completely blocked out of the arches. The growth rate of the arches was found to be abnormal, and there was premature loss of the deciduous teeth.
