ABSTRACT Introduction: Temporary anchorage devices (TADs) have been developed to be used as direct adjuncts in orthodontic treatment and have facilitated treatment of more complex orthodontic cases, including patients with dental impaction. Objectives: This clinical case reports the applicability of TADs in the orthodontic treatment of a patient with impacted mandibular second molars. Surgical and orthodontic procedures related to the use of miniplates were also discussed in this study. Conclusions: The use of temporary anchorage devices, such as miniplates, can be suggested as an alternative to treat patients with impacted mandibular second molars.

Objective: This case report aims to present the microdontia treatment of tooth 35 through pre-prosthetic orthodontics, followed by re-anatomization with an indirect restoration. Case report: A 21-year-old female patient presented with microdontia in tooth 35, with a distalized and vestibularized crown. In addition, tooth 34 was gyroverted with mesial diastema. Orthodontic mechanics with segmented arch were used to centralize tooth 35 in the alveolar ridge, close the diastema in the mesial of tooth 34, and correct its gyroversion. For lingualization of tooth 35, a first-order fold (in set) was performed, and for mesialization, an open-coil spring was used between teeth 35 and 36. A closed-coil spring was used to delimit the movement of tooth 35 to mesial. The force applied by the open spring for mesialization of tooth 35 was transmitted to tooth 34, through the closed spring, resulting in its mesialization; this, closed the diastema between teeth 33 and 34 and corrected the gyroversion. Subsequently, the coronary preparation was performed with diamond tips 1014 and 3146, and confection of the temporary crown in acrylic resin. For the ceramic system, IPS™ e.max Press was used. The ceramic crown was luting using the adhesive technique, followed by light curing for 40 seconds on each face of the tooth. Conclusion: It can be concluded that the re-anatomization of a small tooth should be the first treatment option. However, pre-prosthetic orthodontic treatment may be necessary.

Introduction. Orthodontic treatment of Class II Division 1 (II/1) malocclusions in adults can be challenging since skeletal effects are limited. Possible treatment options are orthodontic camouflage or orthognatic surgery, in severe cases. The aim of this paper was to present a successful management of Class II malocclusion in an adult patient using temporary anchorage devices (TADs). Case report. After detailed clinical examination, study models and cephalometric analysis, a 26 years old patient was diagnosed with Class II malocclusion, an overjet of 12 mm, congenitally missing tooth 41 and midline shifted to the right in upper dental arch. In prior orthodontic treatment, patient had upper premolars extracted. Posterior teeth in upper left quadrant were shifted mesially. The camouflage treatment was considered, using temporary anchorage devices (TADs) to distalize posterior teeth on the left side, and gain space for incisor retraction and midline correction in upper dental arch. Results. Using TADs as additional anchorage in anterior region and coil spring for molar distalization, the space was made for tooth 23, midline correction and incisor retraction. After 40 months, a satisfactory result was achieved, overjet and midline correction, class I canines occlusion and class II molar occlusion. Conclusion. Class II/1 malocclusion in adults can be successfully treated using TADs. The success depends on the severity of malocclusion and patient cooperation.

Resumen: Los casos clínicos son un género propio de las comunidades de profesionales de la salud que se basa en la experiencia clínica de uno o unos pocos pacientes. A diferencia de otros autores, consideramos que tienen una naturaleza principalmente narrativa y que, por lo tanto, se pueden caracterizar por una estructuración en los cinco apartados canónicos de la narración: situación inicial, nudo, (re)acción o evaluación, desenlace y situación final. Verificamos la presencia de estos componentes en un caso clínico prototípico del campo de la neurología, comparándolos con sus análogos en textos provenientes del género reconocidamente narrativo de los cuentos clínicos.Abstract: Clinical case reports are a genre developed within the communities of healthcare professionals and based on the clinical experience of one or a few patients. Unlike other authors, we consider that they have a mainly narrative nature and, therefore, can be characterized by a structure following the five canonical sections of the narrative: initial situation, node, (re) action or evaluation, denouement and final situation. We verify the presence of these components in a prototypical clinical case report from the field of neurology, comparing them with analogous samples of another genre that is widely recognised as narrative: clinical tales.

ABSTRACT Efficient anchorage control is one of the important requisites for successful orthodontic treatment. The conventional means of anchorage control have been the use of transpalatal /lingual arch and palatal button but disadvantage is they do not provide absolute anchorage. Though the use of headgear provide efficient anchorage control, the patients are not compliant in using a headgear. Orthodontic implants have provided us with noncompliant and efficient means of anchorage control. This article traces the journey of development of implants as temporary anchorage devices.

Gingival smile is defined as excessive gum exposition. Its etiology may be related to several factors, among them a maxillary vertical excess, superior dentoalveolar protrusion, changed passive extrusion and or eruption of anterior-superior teeth and hyperactivity of superior lip lift muscle.  In cases in which the etiological factor is from muscle, the use of Botulinum toxin typo A (BTX-A) should be indicated. To highlight the benefits obtained with therapeutic use of this substance, the authors describe a clinical case of a female young patient, in which the Botox® was applied to correct gingival smile as a way to complement the orthodontic treatment. The applications were performed in two lateral points on the nose wing in a single session. The result was very satisfactory and there was no need additional dose. The authors concluded that BTX-A is a safe option and minimum invasive for treatment of gingival smile when provoked by muscle hypercontraction. Its side effects are rare with discrete discomfort during the application.

ABSTRACT Fused teeth are a developmental anomaly involving the union of two dental germs at the crown, root or pulp. This type of anomaly occurs during intraosseous development, resulting in a morphologically irregular tooth that can affect both the primary and permanent dentition. Clinical problems involving esthetics, a lack of space and greater susceptibility to caries are often associated with fused teeth. This type of anomaly is easily confused with dental twinning, which has similar clinical features but emerges from a single dental germ. The aim of the present study was to report a clinical case of the fusion of two deciduous mandibular incisors, describe prospects for treating this anomaly and discuss its repercussions during the development of the dentition. Extraction of the fused tooth was performed and orthodontic treatment was recommended for esthetic and functional improvements. Integrated planning involving both Pediatric Dentistry and Orthodontics provided a better treatment option.

Invasive cervical resorption (ICR) is an insidious, aggressive, and asymptomatic form that can lead to destruction and even loss of the dental unit. ICR is somewhat uncommon, but it can affect any tooth, with the maxillary central incisors being the most affected. Even after numerous studies, the etiology is still unclear. There are some predisposing factors, including orthodontic treatment, trauma, and internal tooth whitening, which may occur in isolation or in conjunction with each other. This article reports a clinical case of ICR class 3 with a rosy discoloration at the cervical margin and the presence of a fistula associated with a history of trauma. This suspicion was raised after radiographic examination and confirmed by cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT), with treatment via an internal approach and endodontic treatment involving debridement of the resorptive areas and filling with a bioceramic repair material and suturing. After treatment, the patient remained asymptomatic, but the fistula was no longer present. Prospective observation at 10 months showed bone formation in the middle third and well-adapted material in the cervical region, with no resorptive tissue present.

Surgical exposure of impacted upper incisor is very complex, so fixed orthodontic treatment rehabilitation is the first choice of the treatment for the correction of malocclusion. A clinical case report a 10-year old boy with a unerupted malposed upper left central incisor, which was treated by sequential surgical exposure and fixed orthodontic treatment. The tooth was aligned in the dental arch with accepted aesthetic and functional satisfaction of the patient.DOI: http://doi.dx.org/10.3329/bjdre.v2i2.16249 Bangladesh Journal of Dental Research & Education Vol.2(2) 2012: 69-70
