Diagnosis
• Diagnosis is the key to

• However, Diagnosis is no cake walk.

• Diagnostic aids help us to come as close
as possible to a comprehensive diagnosis.

COMPREHENSIVE
DIAGNOSIS


• However, in the field of orthodontics, at
the time of diagnosis, the treatment
objectives are set and the diagnosis, as
such, is considered only tentative until
those treatment objectives are achieved,
because the tissue response and the
duration, direction and magnitude of
growth varies in individual patients.

•

Hence, as a clinician, a thorough knowledge of
the normal is a must in order to recognize any
deviations from the normal.

Preventive Orthodontics
“Prevention is better than cure”
So, “Catch ‘em young”
•

Preventive orthodontics includes procedures
undertaken prior to the onset of a malocclusion
in anticipation of a developing malocclusion.

•

The following are some of the procedures
undertaken in preventive orthodontics:
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.

Parent education
Caries control
Supervision of timely tooth shedding
Space maintenance
Checkup for oral habits and habit breaking appliance
if necessary
6. Occlusal equilibration if there are any occlusal
prematurities
7. Extraction of supernumerary teeth
8. Management of abnormal frenal attachment

Space Maintenance
• Premature loss of deciduous teeth can cause
drifting of the adjacent teeth into the space.
• This can result in abnormal axial inclination of
teeth, spacing between teeth and sometimes a
shift in the dental midline, i.e. – malocclusion.
• Space maintenance is the maintenance of the
mesio-distal and vertical width of an arch space
created by the loss of deciduous dentition.
• The appliances/devices used or intended to be
used for this space maintenance are called
space maintainers.

Habits
• A habit is ‘an act that has become fixed
due to repeated performance.’
• Oral habits in children have a definite
bearing on the development of occlusion.
• Frequently, children acquire certain habits
that may either temporarily or permanently
be harmful to dental occlusion and to the
supporting structures.

• However, when the habit is corrected while the
occlusion is still undisturbed and no
malocclusion has set in, it is termed as
preventive orthodontics.
• But, in case the habit has already caused the
onset of a malocclusion, the measures applied
to correct the habit are termed as ‘interceptive
orthodontics’.

Interceptive Orthodontics
“A stitch in time saves nine”
• Interceptive
orthodontics
includes
procedures that are undertaken at an
early stage of a malocclusion to eliminate
or reduce the severity of the same.


•

The
procedures
undertaken
interceptive orthodontics include:
1.

Serial extraction
Correction of developing cross bite
Control of abnormal habits
Space regaining
Muscle exercises
Interception of skeletal malrelation

in

Serial Extraction
• The early mixed dentition is easily prone to
development of irregularities in the dento-facial
complex.
• When
such
potential
irregularities
are
recognized and anticipated, the planned
extraction of certain deciduous teeth and later
specific permanent teeth in an orderly sequence
and pre-determined pattern can help in guiding
the erupting permanent teeth into a more
favorable position.

Interception of Habits
• Interception of the habit will cause interception of
the developing malocclusion effected by the
habit.

Corrective Orthodontics
“Better late than never”
Corrective
orthodontics
includes
procedures undertaken to correct a fully
established malocclusion.
These corrective procedures may be:
 Orthodontic
 Orthognathic (Surgical)

Orthognathic
• Orthognathic surgeries are major surgical
procedures carried out along with
orthodontic therapy to correct dento-facial
deformities
or
severe
oro-facial
disproportions involving the maxilla, the
mandible or both in combination.

Camouflage
• ‘Disguise of guns, ships etc effected by
obscuring outlines with splashes of
various colours.’
- Oxford Dictionary
• ‘To deceive observation, or plan as a false
front.’
- Webster’s Dictionary

• The orthodontist uses ‘camouflage’ treatment in
cases where the ideal treatment protocol was/is
not possible due to some reason or the other, to
try and improve the dental occlusion and facial
esthetics.
• The term ‘camouflage’ is chosen to emphasize
that successful treatment must produce
“acceptable” facial esthetics as well as
“acceptable” dental occlusion.

Mid Treatment


Post Treatment - Extra Oral


Post Treatment - Intra Oral


Post Treatment - Lateral Cephalogram


Adjunctive Orthodontics
• Adjunctive orthodontic treatment is tooth
movement carried out to facilitate other
dental procedures necessary to control
disease and restore function.


Case 1
Increasing pontic space


Case 2
Correcting traumatic occlusion


Retention
“It’s not over till it’s over”
“I will give you half my fees if you can retain what I
have achieved”
• Retention is the phase following active
orthodontic treatment aimed at stabilization of
achieved orthodontic correction or holding of the
teeth in ideal functional esthetic occlusion.

Retention is necessary for three reasons:
 The gingival and periodontal tissues are affected by
orthodontic tooth movements and require time for
reorganization, when an active appliance is removed.
 After treatment, the teeth are in unstable condition.
So the soft tissue pressures constantly produce
relapse tendency.
 Growth changes can alter orthodontic results.

• Aids to retention:
 Natural Aids
 Surgical Aids
 Mechanical Aids
