

Treatment - Molar Distalization


Space regaining procedure

-Mesial migration of first permanent molars

Indications for Molar distalization
1. In a growing child
- to relieve mild crowding
- causes permanent increase in arch
length of about 2mm on each side.

2. Late mixed dentition
-

When lower E space –utilized for relief of
anterior crowding,

-

Upper molars distalized to get a class I
relation

3. Non-growing patient
-

To regain lost arch length

-

Blocking out of canines

4. Upper second molar extraction
-

Lower arch normal




Class I malocclusion- with highly placed canine/impacted
canine



Lack of space for eruption of premolars due to mesial
migration of permanent first molars




End on molar relationship
with mild to moderate space
requirement



Cases with less than a full
cusp class II molar
relationship




Good soft tissue profile



Borderline cases



Mild to moderate space
discrepancy with missing 3rd
molars/2nd molars not yet
erupted




Axial inclination : Mesially
angulated upper molars



Normal or Hypodivergant
growth pattern



Late mixed dentition with
mild crowding of anteriors


Case selection
1. Normal or near normal mandibular arch
2. Late mixed dentition-ideal
- Early permanent dentition-growth still left in maxillary
tuberosity area.- 16-17 yrs-males
14-15 yrs-females
3. Molars placed normally- buccolingually
4. 3rd molars-absent –stacking of upper molars – unsuitable
5. Profile considerations- well developed nose & chin
6. High MPA- contraindicated-wedging effect
7. Space discrepancy- not very severe

Distalization using Headgears


Very efficient



Reciprocal forces are not transmitted to other teeth



Molar movements depends on direction of force in relation to
the C Res of the molar & magnitude of force


Biomechanics of Headgears:


C Res



Moments


Straight pull headgear


Class II Malocclusion with
no vertical problems



Prevent anterior migration
of maxillary teeth, translate
them posteriorly



Buccal force to molar Expansion of inner bow


Cervical Headgear




Short face Class II
maxillary protrusive
cases with low MPA
& Deepbites
Extrusive & distalizing
effect


High pull Headgear








Produces intrusive &
Posterior direction of pull
Long face class II
patients with high MPA
Force through c res –
Intrusion & distal
movement of molar
6-8 months – class IIclassI

Adv-effective, no reciprocal forces
Disadv- Patient compliance

Pink - 2nd week
Yellow – next 2-3 weeks



Initial heavy force- to resist forward
pushing force of new wire- force
transferred distally

archwire force decreases- support with
light forces.

Extrusive component of class II- kept to a
minimum
