CLASS II CORRECTION BY MOLAR DISTALIZATION WITH PENDULUM APPLIANCE- A CASE REPORT.

Molar distalization is a non-extraction modality in gaining space to alleviate crowding in the dental units. It is also a widely used modality in Class II correction. Several techniques and appliances have been designed for this purpose. In this article a new loop configuration is proposed which can be fabricated on a continuous archwire alongwith a case report of a 14 year old whose malocclusion was managed with it. The Modified K-Loop Molar Distalization Archwire was found to effective and comfortable for the patient. There was no requirement of additional palatal hardware or miniscrews

ABSTRACT Objective: To compare two molar distalization devices, the Pendulum appliance (PA) and the Jones Jig (JJ) in dental Class II patients. Materials and Methods: Pretreatment and postdistalization lateral cephalograms and study models of 20 subjects (6 males, 14 females) Class II malocclusion subjects were examined. PA and JJ group both consisted of 10 patients each with a mean pretreatment age of 12 years 1 month for females and 12 years 5 months for males. The PA and the JJ appliance were activated once in a month until Class II molar relationship was corrected to a super Class I molar relationship in both groups. Initial and final measurements and treatment changes were compared by means of Paired t-test. Results: Maxillary first molar distalized an average of 3.85 mm in the PA and 2.75 mm in the JJ between T1 and T2; rate of molar distalization was 1.59 mm/month for PA, and the JJ appliance averaged 0.88 mm/month, distal molar tipping was greater in PA (6.2°) than in the JJ (3.9°). Average mesial movement of the premolars was 2.2 mm with PA and JJ both. JJ showed a greater rotation of first molars after distalization as compared to PA. The increase in vertical facial height was also greater for JJ as compared to PA. Conclusions: Both the appliances were effective in molar distalization with PA requiring less distalization time (16 days less than JJ). Some adverse effects were noted with both which one should strive to control.

24 year male patient presented with skeletal class II base with prognathic maxilla and orthognathic mandible. Angles class II division 1 subdivision malocclusion with proclined upper and lower anteriors, increase overjet, increased overbite, spacing with upper and lower anteriors, scissor bite with 35, class I molar and canine relation on right side, end on molar and canine relation on left side. Distalization was planned in maxillary arch to correct end on molar relation on left side and upper incisor proclination. Unilateral Pendulum appliance was used to distalize upper left molar. Post treatment Class I molar relationship was achieved bilaterally within 2-4 months with incisor proclination reduced. The total treatment ended in 18 months.

Implants obtained popularity in Orthodontics by to make easy the maximum anchorage with the minimal patient׳s compliance. In this context, osseointegrated implants has been frequently used as auxiliaries of orthodontic treatments, substituting in some cases inter maxillaries elastics and extra oral appliances. These implants show as advantage a independence in opposite the patient׳s compliance, the anchorage possibility in periodontal loss cases, over there an esthetic improvement and the comfort propitiated, showing more expected results. This article approach the orthodontic treatment of a clinic case of Class II, division 1 malocclusion, non-extraction accomplished and with palatal implant to distalization of latter teeth.
