24. BIOLOGICAL ASPECTS OF
ANCHORAGE :
Factors affecting anchorage:
Number of roots
Shape, size and length of each root
multirooted > single rooted
longer rooted > shorter rooted
triangular shaped root > conical or
ovoid root
larger surface area > smaller surface
area
www.indiandentalacademy.com
25. BIOLOGICAL ASPECTS OF
ANCHORAGE :
Factors affecting anchorage:
Cortical anchorage:
Cortical bone vs. medullary bone
Muscular forces:
Horizontal growers vs. vertical growers
www.indiandentalacademy.com
26. OPTIMUM FORCE
Pressure in the PDL=
Force applied to a tooth
Area of distribution in PDL
Tooth movement increases as pressure
increases upto a point, remains at same
level over a broad range and then may
gradually decline with extremely heavy
pressure.
Anchorage control : Concentration of
desired force and dissipation of
www.indiandentalacademy.com
28. BIOLOGICAL ASPECTS OF
ANCHORAGE :
Anchorage situations :
Differential effect of very large
forces:
More movement of arch segment
with the larger PDL area.
Questionable response.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
29. MECHANICAL ASPECTS OF
ANCHORAGE :
Tooth movement is brought about after
overcoming the frictional resistance
during sliding of wire in the bracket.
Frictional force is proportional to the
force with which the contacting surfaces
are pressed together
Affected by the nature of the surface
Independent of the area of contact

32. Two Schools of Thought
for retraction of anteriors following Premolar
extraction
Separate canine and anterior retraction
En-mass retraction
www.indiandentalacademy.com
38. Storey, Smith and Stuwed have show
that :
5-55% of the total extraction space can
be taken up by the anchor molar.
According to Salzman
during space closure following extraction
some amount of anchor loss will definitely
take place.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
39. Begg stated that
a differential force application (reciprocal
light force) moves the anterior teeth while
posterior teeth remain stationery.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
42. Components Affecting Sliding
Mechanics
1. WIRE MATERIAL: cobalt chromium,
beta titanium and nickel titanium wires
produces more friction than stainless steel
wires.
2. WIRE CROSS SECTION: rectangular
wire produces more friction than round
wires.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
43. 3. WIRE DIMENSIONS: larger diameter
wires produces more friction than smaller
4. BRACKET COMPOSITION: The
composition of bracket eg., ceramic
brackets, causes more friction than the
stainless steel bracket.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
49. Edwards et al in 1995
compared four ligation
techniques
Similar results- Spiller et al
and Bazakidau also.
Berger JL in 1990 compared
Speed bracket with
conventional ligation
www.indiandentalacademy.com
50. Type of force:
1. active tieback
2. power chain
3. niti close coil spring
4. screw type mechanism
www.indiandentalacademy.com
60. O brien et al in 2002 did a RCT to
compare 3 methods of space
closure:
1.Active tiebacks- 0.35mm/month
2.Powerchain – 0.58mm/month
3.Niti coil spring- 0.81mm/month
www.indiandentalacademy.com
61. Anchorage :
1.Band second molars
2.Headgear
3.Curve of spee in the stainless
steel wire
4.TPA ?????
5.Implants

62. Wise et al in 1994
Bobak V et al in 1997

64. Initial maxillary canine retraction force applied with
tieback between micro-implant & canine.
After 2 months of treatment, maxillary
anterior retraction force applied with
nickel titanium coil spring.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
68. Minor Cuspid Retraction
Minor Cuspid Retraction :- uncontrolled
tipping of the canine, when 1-2mm of arch
length per side is required.
It can be carried out with the use of
lace backs.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
69. Bennett and McLaughlin introduced
lacebacks to prevent forward tipping of
canine during levelling and aligning
These are constructed using 0.009” or
0.010” ligature wire, tied in figure-ofeight fashion.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
71. Major cuspid retraction
Controlled tipping or translation of more
than 3 mm of arch length per side is
required.
Where the canine’s axial inclination is ideal,
it is preferable to translate the tooth.
As the canine is retracted, the anterior
crowding unravels. The lateral incisors
tends to move distally due to pull of the
trans-septal fibers.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
76. INCISOR RETRACTION (SLIDING
MECHANICS)
In friction or sliding mechanics an elastic
chain or thread is attached to the tooth
and a continuous archwire is placed.
The elastic chain is the force component of
the retraction.
The wire-bracket interaction produces the
moment
www.indiandentalacademy.com
77. Advantages of Friction
Mechanics
The complicated wire bending is not
required, making initial wire placement
less time-consuming.
This can enhance patient comfort.
No running out of space for activation.
Fail safe
Vertical force consideration can be
avoided, so there will not be any first
order or third order side effects.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
78. Disadvantages Of Friction
Mechanics
Any thing that adds the friction slows
the movement of teeth along the
archwire.
Unpredictable
Chances of loosing anterior torque is
higher as no time given for uprighting
www.indiandentalacademy.com
85. Loops and springs used for
retraction:
•T loop
•Omega loop
•Tear drop loop
•PG spring
www.indiandentalacademy.com
www.indiandentalacademy.com
86. Alpha moment:- this is the moment
acting on the anterior teeth(often
termed anterior torque).
www.indiandentalacademy.com
87. Beta moment:- this is the moment acting
on the posterior teeth. Tip-back bends
placed mesial to the molars produce an
increased moment.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
88. Horizontal forces:- these are the
mesio-distal forces acting on the teeth.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
89. Vertical forces:- These are intrusive –
extrusive forces acting on the anterior
or posterior teeth. These forces
generally result from unequal alpha and
beta moments.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
99. The use of the T-loop for major
cuspid retraction is recommended.
It fulfills all the requirements of a
retraction assembly.
It is easily fabricated at the chair.
It is inexpensive.
It is resistant to deformation.
It is easily contoured for comfort.
It has a adequate M/F ratio for controlled
tipping or translation.
Its M/F ration can be easily adjusted.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
100. CRITERIA FOR OPTIMAL
SPRING
It should possess low load deflection
rate.
It should deliver optimal force.
It should deliver proper M/F ratio
which determines proper C.rot.
Less bulky
Hygienic
www.indiandentalacademy.com
101. It is made form 0.017 x 0.025 inch
TMA.
The spring is first made passive from
the auxiliary tube of the first molar to
the cuspid slot, it must be remembered
that the canine slot is slightly occlusal
to the auxiliary tube of the first molar
bracket that is why distal vertical leg of
T-loop is kept 1 mm short.

113. CONCLUSION
“Well begun is half work done” so
taking this guideline, meticulous
attention has to be given to
biomechanics.
