Ni-Ti open coil springs are often used for opening spaces for crowded or for distalization of the molar teeth. Predetermining the length of open coil spring required to open up the exact amount of space is rather difficult, and sometimes, the length of the open coil spring falls short to open up the entire space required. Open coil spring usually requires reactivation to gain enough space in the arch or between two adjacent teeth. This paper highlights the chairside method of reactivation of NiTi open coil spring with the use of modified ‘S’ shape ring without removing the base archwire.

Class II malocclusion cases are of interest to orthodontists since they constitute a significant chunk of cases they treat. Still, they're one of the most grueling malocclusions to diagnose and treat.There lies a significant difference in the frequency of Class II malocclusion among various populations. The frequency of Class II malocclusion in India varies from 1.9% in Rajasthan to 8.37% in South India. Class II division 2 (Deckbiss) malocclusion is characterized by mandibular incisors positioned posterior to the cingulum of retroclined maxillary incisors. It usually presents with reduced overjet and increased overbite.The treatment approach of Class II division 2 malocclusion is different for different age groups. In growing cases, growth modulation with myofunctional appliances is recommended but in adult cases, orthodontic camouflage or orthognathic surgery is the recommended treatment modality. When orthodontic treatment alone is ineffective or when facial aesthetics is grossly undermined, orthognathic surgery is the choice of treatmentIn the present case series, two adult cases of severe Class II division 2 (Deckbiss) malocclusion were treated orthosurgically with BSSO. This case series demonstrates that treatment of Class II division 2 (Deckbiss) malocclusion in adult patients is a challenging task and a combined orthodontic-surgical approach can be used to obtain optimum aesthetics & functional efficiency.

This case report intends to highlight the space closure with continuous T-loop mechanics for bimaxillary protrusion. Loops can be fabricated in a sectional or full arch wire, and closing loops are usually used in loop mechanics for extraction space closure. The major advantage of loop mechanics is the lack of friction between the bracket and arch wire during space closure. A 21-year old adult male patient with bimaxillary protrusion and spacing reported to the clinic. The patient was treated successfully by maximum retraction of maxillary and mandibular anterior teeth after extraction of all first premolars. Space closure was achieved using a moment differential between posterior and anterior segments created by a T-loop. A stable result with normal over jet and overbite was achieved with retraction of maxillary and mandibular anterior teeth and no loss of anchorage.

Minimally Invasive Dentistry (MID) is a modern concept that attempt to keep teeth functional for life. It is the management of caries with biological approach rather than traditional surgical approach. It is to leave the traditional GV Black concept of ‘Extension for Prevention’ behind. Now, the present-day principle is ‘Constriction with Conservation’. This has been noticed that the concept of MID is still very unclear to the practicing dentists & even to the undergraduates. To understand the knowledge and awareness of undergraduates about MID a survey is important. The aim of this study is –Firstly, to assess the knowledge about MID technique among the undergraduate students and interns from my dental institution. Secondly, to also investigate whether the knowledge acquired by the students reflects in the form of a positive attitude towards practice of MID principles. A cross-sectional survey involving 50 dental students and interns of my dental institution. The questioner is close ended. The questions are to assess the respondent levels of agreement regarding diagnostic, preventive and minimally invasive restorative techniques. In this study it was found that interns had greater knowledge of MID than final years as they had greater clinical exposure. There is a need to introduce evidence-based dentistry in the dental curriculum as well as establish guidelines for caries detection, diagnosis, treatment discussion & treatment performance.

Successful orthodontic treatment demands the need for adequate anchorage reinforcement. The growing need for minimum compliance and maximum curative effects has made the mini-implants more acceptable as an excellent substitute to traditional orthodontic anchorage. Mini-implants as skeletal anchorage sources can be used to carry out intrusion, extrusion, anterior retraction, molar protraction and distalization, and correction of midline and occlusal canting etc. Endosseous dental implants have begun to be more reliable sources of anchorage. However, because of complicated surgical procedure, long healing time, and limited implant sites—their use as routine clinical anchorage has remained subtle till date. Also, patient acceptability, rate and severity of adverse effects of miniscrews, and variables that influenced success remain unanswered. In the present article, we systematically reviewed some of the available and unswerving literature to quantify success and complications encountered with the use of mini-implants for orthodontic anchorage, to evaluate factors associated with success or failure.

The study's goal was to compare and contrast the effectiveness and efficiency of customized and non-customized orthodontic brackets. 10 patients (Group A) were treated with a Customized section System (Insignia USA) and 10 patients (Group B) were treated with a Non-customized Bracket system (Damon).Gathering this data, the clinical effectiveness and efficiency was measured by estimating Initial Peer Assessment Rating (PAR) and Final PAR scores, assessing the complete therapy time, number of scheduled appointments, number of examination visits, number of loose brackets and pain rating during the treatment which was recorded with a numerical rating scale. The Insignia group outperformed the Damon group in terms of clinical efficiency, but there was no difference in PAR score reduction so overall clinical effectiveness of the Insignia and Damon groups was identical. Orthodontists would be able to give high-quality treatment in less time with fewer appointments and less chair time if they use the optimum bracket system.

The introduction of the self-ligating brackets proved to be a revolutionary change in the history of brackets. The benefits of orthodontic appliances and techniques revolve around efficiency, allowing the patient to expect more efficient and timely treatment. The popularity and USP of self-ligating brackets have been for the ability of SL bracket systems to reduce chair time and overall treatment time. Until the early 1970s, the concept of self-ligating brackets fell more or less into oblivion. There has been a continuous endeavor to perfect self-ligating brackets, and several brackets were introduced Since 1970. Within the past decade, substantial developments, new designs, and numerous proposed advantages of SL brackets have caused them to gain significant popularity among practicing orthodontists. At present, the orthodontic market is flooded with the promotion of different SL brackets. This review aims to provide a complete overview of the evolution of self-ligating brackets from the first to the latest available.

Class III malocclusion is associated with a sagittal malrelationship of the maxilla and the mandible, characterized by a deficient maxilla, retrognathic mandible, or a combination of both. The early treatment of Class III malocclusions provides facial balance, modifies the maxillofacial growth and development, and prevents future surgical treatment by increasing the stability. Many treatment approaches can be found in the literature regarding orthopedic and orthodontic treatment of Class III malocclusion, including intra‑ and extra‑oral appliances. The major problem with extraoral anchorage has been of patient compliance due to its physical appearance. The case report presents an intraoral modified tandem appliance for maxillary protraction that has been used clinically to achieve successful results without relying much on patient co‑operation.

To evaluate microbial corrosion by weight loss, microbial corrosion and elemental analysis of NiTi and stainless wires after period of 2 months in streptococcus mutans containing media. Percentage change in weight after 2 months is 1.7% and 0.8% in NiTi & SS respectively. Elemental analysis of NiTi wire in streptococcus containing media showed decrease in Ni by 2.9% by weight and Ti decreased 3.07% by weight due to leaching of Ni and Ti from the surface of wires. In stainless steel wire, there was decrease in Fe by 8.82% and Cr 1.39% by weight. Significant microbial corrosion was observed in NiTi wires as compared with SS wires may be attributed to the surface roughness of NiTi wires. However, the role of biofilm is dual and remained controversial due to being protective and corrosive.

Children with a cleft lip and/or palate (CLP) inherit multiple complications related to inadequate nutrition, feeding problems and speech impairment. Cleft patient treatment aims to address skeletal and dental disharmony through multidisciplinary care, where skeletal discrepancies in children with CLP may require orthopedic and/or surgical correction. It is important to determine the period of accelerated growth of the relevant skeletal structure to achieve the most favourable response with the least potential morbidity. A retrospective study was conducted for a period of eighteen months in which 102 lateral cephalograms of subjects within the age range of nine to eighteen years were examined to evaluate differences in the cervical vertebrae skeletal maturation. Patients with non- syndromic unilateral/bilateral cleft lip and palate and those without cleft and other systemic disorders were analysed. Fifty-one participants each with and without cleft-palate and lip were recruited in our study. At the age group of 9-13 years, comparison of CVMI status between cleft and non-cleft subjects revealed a statistically significant difference. In the age group of 14 – 18 years, equal distribution was observed in the deceleration stage and maturation stage of cleft and non-cleft groups. More disparity was found in CVMI transition stageThe conducted study indicates statistically significant differences between the skeletal age and chronological age in cleft and non-cleft subjects from the age group of 9-18 years.
