âą Particularities related to malocclusion (type, etiology, severity)
âą craniofacial features.
9. Doctor-patient relationship
ï§ orthodontic treatment begins the physician, patient
and person with the legal authority for minors
become a team with a common goal â insuring the
health status for identified problems .
ï§ Communication is a key element in achieving quality
results.
10. What shall we do as
orthodontist?
It is recommended the clear
presentation of the medical
information to the patient, in a clear
language, avoiding the usage of
specialized terminology.
(Teodora et al., 2012)

12. Orthodontic devices
come into contact with the oral tissues and fluids,
temperature fluctuations, mechanical loading during
mastication and devices activation, physical or chemical
interactions.
ïŒ lower nickel content, with a good resistance to
corrosion and, in order to avoid corrosion of titanium
based components, to limit the use of high
concentration fluor-based products.
Specific therapeutic context
16. Related to the bonding and debonding technique
I. Enamel damage
Self-etch adhesives / RMGI
17. ï promoting plaque accumulation
and inhibiting oral hygiene
ï White spot lesions
II. Carious activity
18. ïŒ Primary prevention
ïŒ Secondary prevention
How to prevent teeth from
decay during orthodontic
treatment?
19. ï§ Spontaneous remineralization
ï§ fluor or casein phosphopeptide based products
ï§ Chew sugar-free gums.
ï§ Microabrasion may be used.
Treatment approaches for
white spot lesions;
20. ï§ Technique of treatment. (fixed vs
removable app. )
ï§ Irreversible changes within enamel
surface morphology
ï§ Adhesive resins usage
ï§ Food dyes
ï§ UV light.
ï§ Corrosion products
ï§ Force to induce pulp vascularization
abnormalities.
III. Color alteration
21. Secondary to the contact between teeth and brackets or tubes.
Itâs also a higher sever form in patients with ceramic brackets,
severity ranging from 9 to 38 times higher compared to the metallic
one.
IV. Dental wear
22. V. External apical root
resorption
Patient
characteristic Orthodontic
technique
23. Maxillary teeth are more prone
to develop root resorption
compared to the mandibular
ones, and frontal teeth more
prone than lateral ones.
V. External apical root
resorption
24.
25. Importance
of maintaining a good oral hygiene, to
monitories the periodontal status
(at least every 3 months to do an
examination and dental cleaning)
In forms of
âą gingivitis
âą Periodontitis
âą Dehiscence
âą Fenestrations
âą gingival recession
âą Overgrowth
âą black triangles
26.
27. Erosions and ulcerations on the buccal, labial,
lingual or gingival mucosa.
Pain and discomfort are associated
using orthodontic wax
28. Improper hygiene of the removable orthodontic
appliances is sometimes associated with stomatitis
appearance, which may sometimes be over
infected with Candida Albicans.
Headgear appliance was linked to facial and
intraoral trauma.
29.
30. premature occlusal contacts present
during therapy, there is a greater risk
for this complication to appear Before
starting orthodontic treatment.
ïŒ every patient must be examined in
order to detect previous
temporomandibular disorders and
identify high risk patients
