Orthodontic Space Closure of a Missing Maxillary Lateral Incisor Followed by Canine Lateralization. [PDF]
Case Rep Dent, 2020 Maxillary lateral incisor agenesis is the most prevalent developmental dental anomaly. The management of missing lateral incisor was either closure using canine as substitution or creation of space orthodontically for prosthetic replacement. A careful diagnosis and treatment plan are deemed essential to address the patient’s needs as the spacing is ...

Understanding the basis of space closure in Orthodontics for a more efficient orthodontic treatment [PDF]
Dental Press Journal of Orthodontics, 2016 ABSTRACT Introduction: Space closure is one of the most challenging processes in Orthodontics and requires a solid comprehension of biomechanics in order to avoid undesirable side effects. Understanding the biomechanical basis of space closure better enables clinicians to determine anchorage and treatment options.

Socket Sclerosis—An Obstacle for Orthodontic Space Closure? [PDF]
The Angle Orthodontist, 2009 Abstract Background: Socket sclerosis is a rare reaction to tooth extraction resulting in high-density bone in the center of the alveolar process, where, under normal circumstances, cancellous bone is to be expected. Materials and Methods: In an adult orthodontic patient, routine extractions of the mandibular first

Mechanical evaluation of space closure loops in Orthodontics
Brazilian Oral Research, 2011 This study evaluated the mechanical performance of teardrop-shaped loops and teardrop-shaped loops with helix used in orthodontic space closure. Sixty retraction loops made with 0.019" x 0.025" stainless steel (SS) and beta-titanium (BT) wires were used.

Localized orthodontic space closure for unilateral aplasia of lower second premolars [PDF]
The European Journal of Orthodontics, 2007 The present study aimed to determine whether routine orthodontic space closure can be successfully achieved in patients with unilateral aplasia of the lower second premolars without extracting contralateral or opposing teeth. The dental records and lateral cephalograms of 17 consecutively treated subjects (11 females, 6 males) aged between 14.8 and 19 ...
