Treatment Decision A discussion of your treatment decision, what else you considered, and reasoning..
For example:Non-Extraction was the initial diagnosis, which would have NOT solved thechief complaint of this patient, who was complaining of protrusion (with straight teeth).
The patient had already gone through non-extraction orthodontics previously. I consider
this retreatment diagnosis as a missed diagnosis.
In the past, a change in diagnosis to bicuspid extraction would have been made.Instead, the upper incisor brackets were changed to Labial root torque brackets, and
21x25N was engaged and retied for the next 6 months to test the ability to do more cases
non-extraction.
IP Appliance Design Say something about incisor torque, cuspid torque, molar buccal
tubes, archwires, rotations, positioning that you used for this case(and maybe what you did not use). For example: Single patient standardRoth IP Appliance was used for this case. At 6 months, a change to Labial root torque
brackets was made to reduce the upper incisor proclination and associated overjet felt by
the patient. There was also a change to mesial rotation brackets on 14M and 25M. Otherrotation brackets could have been used, but were not diagnosed using the manual method
(no software and no model measuring).
Ovoid non-extraction #1 (expanded) archwires were applied for the first 6 months. At 6months, the lower archwire was changed to Ovoid non-extraction #2, the archform to
maintain the original shape and size. In the upper arch, 21x25N is not available in the IP
Shapes and sizes, so this was ovoid non-extraction #1 for the entire treatment. Changes inthe incisor torque would be due to the bracket-archwire interface.
There is no difference in the anterior expansion 3-3 between these archwires. The upper
posterior constriction did not cause a posterior crossbite. This is the overlay of the upper
non-extraction #1 and #2 archwires.

Selection of rotations with model measuring More rotation brackets would have been selected had model measuring been available atthe time of treatment. This would have led to less under-corrections on the final result.
Rotations by this method are: 35M, 33D,41D,43D,44M in the lower arch, and15M,14M,13D,11M,21D,22M,24M, 25M in the upper arch.
Results Alignment and wire progression to rectangular wires consumed the first 14 months due
to the severe upper left second bicuspid (25) rotation. This was followed by some lowerarch finishing (only step bends to compensate for height bracket error). There were NOfinishing bends made in the upper arch. Several rotations were not fully corrected due to a)
combination labial root torque and rotation brackets were not available at the time of
treatment and b) 21x25N is too stiff an archwire to deflect fully into the bracket slots. Abetter archwire would have been 18x25N heat activated. The case was debanded at 20
months.

13 months photos
[Not required, but if you have progress photos or models or x-
rays that are significant to the case understanding, please include]The reason for extraction, the protruded upper incisor with the feeling of excess overjet
was now corrected after 6 months of 21x25N and labial root torque brackets.

Skeletal overlay: start vs. 13 months
[Skeletal, dental overlays are completed on your finished case
and possibly different stages of treatment. Comments on what these
show is added. Scan, same, insert-image-from file, resize.]
The mandible rotated down and back, avoiding the protrusive interference resultingfrom detorquing and extrusion of the upper incisor. This also increased the class II dental
seen on the lateral views.

Dental Overlays: start vs. 13 months
(6 months of 21x25N in Labial root torque brackets) There was NOT a loss of molar anchorage due to the added labial root torque applied tothe upper incisors. The increase in class II dental was due to mandibular rotation, an
avoidance response to the incisive protrusive interference.After the root contacted the labial cortical plate, the crown had to move palatal as a
result of the torquing applied through the archwire and bracket. 10 degrees of change in
the upper incisor inclination is NOT seen with the previous straight wire appliances.

Dental overlays: start vs. final There was a change of 11 degrees of labial root torque as a result of the full size nickel-titanium archwire engaged into the Labial root torque bracket. There is an additional 10
degrees of labial root torque (+2 degrees) in the La bracket relative to the standard Roth
(+12 degrees) on the central incisor prescription.
The crown of the tooth moved lingual after the root could no longer move forward as aresult of contacting the labial cortical plate.
