What are the advantages of the Beggbracket for limited orthodontic movement for the General Dentist?

The biggest advantage is you only needone bracket! Yes, you can use the same bonded bracket on any tooth upper andlower from bicuspid to bicuspid. Actually, I would prefer two bases, one iscurved slightly with mesh for bonding bi\'s and canines, the other is flat basedfor the incisors. Other techniques require a different bracket for each tooth.That means a possible inventory of 20 different brackets plus backups in casesome brackets are lost or broken. Other types of brackets are also greater incost than the typical Begg bracket. The third big advantage lies in anchoragecontrol. Other brackets and techniques build torque into the bracket and don\'t allowfree tipping. This means that teeth must move bodily. Bodily movements of teethrequire greater anchorage to gain movement in the correct directions. Beggbrackets allow free tipping and are ideal for segmental archwires.

Many general dentists that do limitedortho struggle with removable appliances and sometimes fall short on resultsbecause of the removable appliance\'s limitations and/or lack of good patientcooperation. Many other general dentists know they are limited by removableappliances so they ship off the patient to a specialist. The specialist insistson ideal treatment. The patient really wants only their front teeth to bealigned. They don\'t want full treatment lasting 2 years or more. The endresult, the patient receives no treatment. I find that I can achieve areliable, excellent, and efficient results by bonding a few Begg brackets andplacing a nitinol wire. I also find that I can achieve these good results inmuch less time, both my time and the patient\'s time when I use fixed Beggappliances.

Two types of cases come to mind thatlend themselves well to limited orthodontic treatment. The first type case isthe adult with upper or lower crowded anteriors 5mm or less space needed touncrowd the teeth. The second type of case is the anterior spaced patient,usually a large diastema. In the diastema case, if restorative dentistry is allyou know, you will be tempted to place two porcelain veneers on the centralincisors and be done with the case. Usually, in the larger diastema cases theesthetic result is much better if you first move the centrals together part ofthe distance and place four veneers on the teeth lateral to lateral. I willproceed to describe the steps necessary to treat both types of cases.

Anterior Crowded Cases

Take good records, photos, make sureyou have X-rays of the teeth to be moved, and study models. After you havedetermined that you need 5mm or less space to uncrowd the anterior teeth andthat the opposing arch doesn\'t have any teeth that will not allow the uppers tobe aligned (crossbites, extruded and misplaced teeth etc.), you are ready toplace your brackets. ( SEEFigure 1) Note: you do not need to use jigs to align brackets but you do needto understand placement differences on upper and lower teeth shown in thediagram.

Before After

We typically prophy the teeth, etch,place unfilled resin on the tooth and the back of the bracket and then filledresin on the bracket. We then position the bracket on the tooth. We usually mixenough bonding material to place 3 brackets at a time. We are using a self cureresin. Allow the resin to set for about 5 minutes then you are ready to proceedwith obtaining space and wire placement. You can gain some space, in somecases, by just rounding out the arch form. We usually obtain space by using ARS(air rotar stripping) as advocated by Dr. Sheridan. Sometimes you must wait forthe teeth to align somewhat before you have good access to trim the contactsproperly. I find two excellent ways to do this. For tight contacts that I don\'twant to remove more than a 1/2mm I will use a double sided diamond disc thatfits in my straight low speed handpiece for contacts that I can trim a littlemore I will use a 699 caroffere. In both cases you want to shape the contactsback to normal form and polish them. After I have provided for space (as I canand is necessary) I will fabricate the archwire. We use a pre-formed roundnitinol .016 wire. I trim the gross excess from the distal ends and try thewire in the mouth. I mark the wire distal to the last bracket on each side. Alaundry pencil will mark the wire . I take the wire out of the mouth and make45 degree bends at those points toward the lingual side of the wire. Thesebends help keep the wire from moving from side to side through the brackets. Iplace the wire back into the brackets and pin the wire to place. We give thepatient home care instructions, including flossing, and some utility wax(clear)to place on any resulting sore areas. I see them back in 4 weeks.

At the four week visit I may use ARS toprovide for some more space in areas that were malpositioned in such a way atthe first visit that I couldn\'t shape the contacts properly. I probably wouldnot change the wire just yet. Another 4 weeks and the teeth should be fairly wellaligned. I may switch to hard wire, round austrailian .016, and make some minorbends to correct some minor rotations that the nitinol wire hasn\'t corrected.Also if a root is mesially or distally tipped I will place uprighting springsto correct that problem. The stiff .016 wire must be used if you are usinguprighting springs. I would also recommend that you tie a ligature tie from thedistal most tooth to the distal most tooth when the springs are used or you mayopen up space in the arch as you upright. Vary the visit timing according tohow much uprighting you need. (You will have to develop a feel for this fromyour experience ) I would suggest 3 weeks until you develop some experience.When all teeth are aligned properly leave the wire in place for a fewadditional weeks without springs etc. to allow some stability before you removethe brackets.
