The Carriere Distalizer
The Carriere Distalizer
What is it?
•   It is a Class II direct bond appliance: it creates a Class I molar and
    canine relationship – Class I platform of occlusion
•   Bonded from cuspid to first molar
How does it work?
•   It is used to (1) bodily di t li maxillary posterior segments while
       i     dt       b dil distalize     ill      t i            t hil
    correcting (2) upper first molar rotation and (3) uprighting.
•   Produces a distal rotational movement of the maxillary first molars
    around their palatal roots when necessary
                          roots,
•   Simultaneously, produces a light and uniform force for distal molar
    movement.
•   Independently, moves each posterior segment, from canine to molar,
    as a unit.
•   No wire changes involved therefore it eliminates the distorting collateral
    forces that appears with every wire changes
•   Minimal root resorption

The Carriere Distalizer – What is it?

• Direct bond appliance to cuspid and
  first molar used to bodily distalize
  maxillary posterior segments while
  correcting upper first molar rotation and
  uprighting.
      i hi
• Requires a lower source of anchorage
  such as a lingual arch or essix and
  activated with ¼ i h h

                                  l ti
• Goal is to treat and correct the Class II
  at the beginning of treatment BEFORE
  brackets are placed in mo th lea ing
                          mouth leaving
  doctor with Class I platform.
The Carriere Distalizer – What is it?
• Average treatment time is only 3-4 months due to reduction
  in competing forces caused by braces and anterior teeth
          p    g               y
  (battle of the curve).
• Non-invasive, Nickel Free design for better bio-compatibility
  and patient comfort.
• Low inventory solution with no lab fees. Bonds with bracket
  adhesive.
• Fastest growing and most p p
            g     g          popular ClassOne p product.
• 3 JCO articles released.
How it Works
• The Carriere Distalizer mimics a human ball/socket joint
allowing the first molar to rotate and upright.

• Built in stops engineered in the appliance keep the molar
from over-rotating or distal tipping.
                  g            pp g
How it Works
• The stiff arm maintains exact space bet een
                          e act        between
  pre-molars during distalization.
• The cuspid pad is fixed and will not allow the
  cuspid to tip.

Patient Compliance
• Patient compliance very high beca se
                         er      because
  distalizer is used at beginning of treatment
  when patient cooperation is best
                                best.
• Non-invasive look/feel makes distalizer easy
  choice for patient and parents.
• Use model and patient video during
  consultation to properly educate p

Carrière Distalizer Study
                 Conclusions
• Distalizer has a significant effect on the distalization of
                      g
  the molars and premolars 3.82 mm of mean (Range 3
  to 6 mm) and shows consistent results in relation to the
  correction of maxillary first molar rotation and
  uprighting.
• The effect of the Carriere Distalizer is limited to Dental
  and Dento-Alveolar structures.
• The success of treatment requires the cooperation of
  the patient; which does not seem to be difficult to
  obtain because of the motivation, patient
  understanding the logics of the project, and because it
  is l
  i placed on th fi t d of t t
          d     the first day f treatment.t
Appliance Placement
Instruction for use (cast)
Measurements: Using a distometer measure from the
  midpoint on the facial surface of the maxillary first
  molar (buccal groove) to the midpoint of the facial
  surface of the maxillary canine. Measurements can
  be made intraorally or on a recent cast. (Distometers
  included in Distalizer case).
Selections: Find the correct length Distalizer — using
  distometer. Using finger pressure, adjust the
  Distalizer bar to maximize conformity of the cuspid
  pad t the surface of the cuspid. M
     d to th      f       f th       id Many O th d ti t
                                               Orthodontists
  find it easier to fit the Distalizer to a recent cast.
Measurement Intra Oral
            Intra-Oral
Bond Preparation

• Mark Embrasure: Place
  marks at embrasures mesial
  to the molar and distal to the
  cuspid. These marks assist in
  bonding of Distalizer.

 •Wax Molar ‘Joint’: Place wax
 at the ‘ball and socket’ joint to
                          j
 enhance stability of intraoral
 bonding (be careful not to get
 any wax on bonding pad)
                       pad).
Prep Bonding
• Coat: Cover the entire
  Distalizer pads with light
  cure composite.
• Cover: Protect the Distalizer
  pad from ambient light prior to
  intraoral placement. Cotton
  rolls shown in photo below
  prevent light screen from
  making contact with Distalizer
  pads coated with light cure
  composite.
Prep Patient

Isolate: Using lip retractor,
dry triangle, single cotton roll, and/or low
volume suction ensure adequate intraoral
         suction,
access while minimizing moisture
Etch: Enamel acid etch the surface of the first
molar and cuspid as appropriate for the material
selected.
Prep

• Air Burst: Apply brief air burst to surface of
  etched cuspid and molar.

Placement of the Distalizer
• Bond Molar - Placement of Distalizer on the Molar:
  Remove the Distalizer from beneath the light shield.
  Grasp the bar of the Distalizer on either embrasure
  mark using l ki h
      k i locking hemostat, or f    forceps. P h molar
                                             Push   l
  pad into the correct position:
• OCCLUSAL/GINGIVAL - Place pad on gingival third of
  molar. Remove excess ‘flash’ from tooth surface. Fully
  cure molar pad.
Placement of the Distalizer
•   Bond Cuspid: Grasp the bar of the Distalizer on
    the mark for the embrasure distal to the cuspid using a locking
    hemostat or forceps Push the cuspid pad onto the middle third
                  forceps.                                       third,
    labial surface of the cuspid. Fully cure the cuspid pad.
•   Order of Bonding: Some Orthodontists prefer to first place the

Final Distalizer Procedures

•   Re-check
    Re check for flash around Distalizer pad on upper
    molar: Make sure no ‘flash’ is occluding with lower
    molar band and/or mandibular anchorage system. See red
    arrow above.
•   Attach elastics from molar to cuspid: First attach elastic at
    Mandibular Molar, and then stretch and attach to hook on
    Maxillary Cuspal Pad of Carrière Distalizer.
                                     Distalizer
•   Instruction of Patient on: Elastic Wear - (22/7): Remove when
    eating. “Wear elastics at all other times.”

Distalizer FAQ
•   What if the cuspid is not erupted or too high to bond?
     – If the distalizer cannot be bonded to cuspid, doctor can either move the
       appliance to the 4 and 7 or use one of our new smaller sizes to span from
       the 4-6.
•   What about patient compliance?
     – We have had very few docs report non-compliance. The main reason is the
       Distalizer is used at beginning of treatment when compliance is best; not
       mid-way through when the patient has already been put through pain. Also,
       Distalizer is very simple and comfortable in mouth. Patient also likes that
       they do not have to have brackets in mouth for initial phase of treatment. If
       doctor properly explains benefits, patient and parent will want to cooperate
       with treatment
            treatment.
•   How do you bond? (Bonding Demo Video)
     – Using your regular bracket adhesive, we recommend bonding the 1st molar
       first. The ball/socket joint will then allow you to lay the distalizer down on to
       the cuspid for accurate placement. A bonding prep guide is available for
       more detail.
•   What happens to the second molar? Third molar?
     – The second molar will distalize with the rest of the posterior segment.
       There is no need to extract.
Distalizer FAQ
•   Will I have lower anterior flaring?
     – Possibly depending on the source of anchorage chosen. With a lower
       lingual arch, there can be some slight flaring of the lower anteriors In some
               arch                                                anteriors.
       cases, this may be wanted. If not, using an Essix or mini-screw will prohibit
       lower flaring.
•   Can I use in a Uni-lateral Class II case?
     – Yes The distalizers come in a left and right and can be used together (bi-
       Yes.
       lateral) or separate (uni-lateral).
•   Can I use in Mixed Dentition?
     – Mixed dentition Class II with fully erupted first molars, for first phase
       treatment.
•   Can I use the Distalizer to treat a Class III by placing on lower?
     – No
Distalizer FAQ
•   How do I know what size Distalizer to use? (Distometer Picture)
•   Will I have extrusion of the canines?
•   What is the difference between this and using Class II elastics?
     – Treatment time and correction of the first molar are the biggest differences.
       When using Class II elastics with braces, movement is slower because of
       the competing forces in the mouth. Since the distalizer is done pre-braces,
       those f
       th     forces are eliminated and th di t li ti process h
                           li i t d d the distalization              happens much  h
       faster. Plus, the distalizer corrects the molar rotation for you at the same
       time. By treating the Class II first with the distalizer and then treating the
       Class I later, the doctor simplifies the case reducing time and increasing
       patient comfort.
•   How far can I distalize the molars with this appliance?
     – Based on 60 case studies, average distalization was 4 mm. Maximum was
       6 mm and min was 3 mm.
•   What happens with the p
             pp              pre-molars since they are not bonded?
                                                 y
•   Do I get tipping of the cuspid?
     – No. It might seems sometime, but it does not
•   Can this be used with Invisalign? (Invisalign Demo Video)

  • 5. The Carriere Distalizer What is it? • It is a Class II direct bond appliance: it creates a Class I molar and canine relationship – Class I platform of occlusion • Bonded from cuspid to first molar How does it work? • It is used to (1) bodily di t li maxillary posterior segments while i dt b dil distalize ill t i t hil correcting (2) upper first molar rotation and (3) uprighting. • Produces a distal rotational movement of the maxillary first molars around their palatal roots when necessary roots, • Simultaneously, produces a light and uniform force for distal molar movement. • Independently, moves each posterior segment, from canine to molar, as a unit. • No wire changes involved therefore it eliminates the distorting collateral forces that appears with every wire changes • Minimal root resorption

  • 107. Distalizer FAQ • What if the cuspid is not erupted or too high to bond? – If the distalizer cannot be bonded to cuspid, doctor can either move the appliance to the 4 and 7 or use one of our new smaller sizes to span from the 4-6. • What about patient compliance? – We have had very few docs report non-compliance. The main reason is the Distalizer is used at beginning of treatment when compliance is best; not mid-way through when the patient has already been put through pain. Also, Distalizer is very simple and comfortable in mouth. Patient also likes that they do not have to have brackets in mouth for initial phase of treatment. If doctor properly explains benefits, patient and parent will want to cooperate with treatment treatment. • How do you bond? (Bonding Demo Video) – Using your regular bracket adhesive, we recommend bonding the 1st molar first. The ball/socket joint will then allow you to lay the distalizer down on to the cuspid for accurate placement. A bonding prep guide is available for more detail. • What happens to the second molar? Third molar? – The second molar will distalize with the rest of the posterior segment. There is no need to extract.
  • 108. Distalizer FAQ • Will I have lower anterior flaring? – Possibly depending on the source of anchorage chosen. With a lower lingual arch, there can be some slight flaring of the lower anteriors In some arch anteriors. cases, this may be wanted. If not, using an Essix or mini-screw will prohibit lower flaring. • Can I use in a Uni-lateral Class II case? – Yes The distalizers come in a left and right and can be used together (bi- Yes. lateral) or separate (uni-lateral). • Can I use in Mixed Dentition? – Mixed dentition Class II with fully erupted first molars, for first phase treatment. • Can I use the Distalizer to treat a Class III by placing on lower? – No
  • 109. Distalizer FAQ • How do I know what size Distalizer to use? (Distometer Picture) • Will I have extrusion of the canines? • What is the difference between this and using Class II elastics? – Treatment time and correction of the first molar are the biggest differences. When using Class II elastics with braces, movement is slower because of the competing forces in the mouth. Since the distalizer is done pre-braces, those f th forces are eliminated and th di t li ti process h li i t d d the distalization happens much h faster. Plus, the distalizer corrects the molar rotation for you at the same time. By treating the Class II first with the distalizer and then treating the Class I later, the doctor simplifies the case reducing time and increasing patient comfort. • How far can I distalize the molars with this appliance? – Based on 60 case studies, average distalization was 4 mm. Maximum was 6 mm and min was 3 mm. • What happens with the p pp pre-molars since they are not bonded? y • Do I get tipping of the cuspid? – No. It might seems sometime, but it does not • Can this be used with Invisalign?
