BMC Oral Health 2024; 24:823. [PMID: 39033134 PMCID: PMC11264753 DOI: 10.1186/s12903-024-04601-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/19/2024] [Accepted: 07/15/2024] [Indexed: 07/23/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The effects of traction forces at different angles on impacted central incisors(ICI)with varying inverted angles (IA) may be different. The objective of this study was to analyze the biomechanical effects of different force directions (FD) on developmentally inverted ICI with multi-angle variations and to offer insights and guidance for the treatment of inverted ICI. METHODS Three-dimensional finite element method was employed to simulate clinical scenarios of inverted ICI traction. As such, 0.2 N of force (direction: antero-superior angles of 90°, 100°, 110°, 120°, and 130° relative to the long axis of the inverted ICI crown) was applied to the inverted ICI with inverse angles (IA) of 40°, 30°, 20°, 10° and 0°. Inverted ICI apical displacement and Von Mises stress on periodontal ligament (PDL) and alveolar bone were compared. RESULTS IA and FD showed minimal influence on the stress distribution in the PDL, as higher stresses were concentrated in the apical region. The higher stresses in the alveolar bone are focused on the cervical and apical regions of the tooth. In particular, IA exerts a more significant impact on stress distribution in the alveolar bone than FD. The influence of IA on the apical displacement of inverted ICI is larger than that of FD. CONCLUSIONS To promote the health of the root and periodontal tissues, it is recommended to use an angle of 100°-110° relative to the long axis of the ICI crown when dealing with a large IA (> 20°) developmentally inverted ICI. Conversely, an angle of 110°-120° can be used.

Am J Orthod Dentofacial Orthop 2024; 165:576-585. [PMID: 38349289 DOI: 10.1016/j.ajodo.2023.11.015] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/01/2023] [Revised: 11/01/2023] [Accepted: 11/01/2023] [Indexed: 04/28/2024]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION This study aimed to use 3-dimensional data to investigate the factors affecting local alveolar bone thickness in unilateral maxillary canine-lateral incisor transposition. METHODS Pretreatment cone-beam computed tomography data of 34 patients with unilateral maxillary canine-lateral transposition were imported into Dolphin Imaging software (version 11.8; Dolphin Imaging and Management Solutions, Chatsworth, Calif) for 3-dimensional reconstruction. The age, gender, and type of transposition at the beginning of treatment were recorded. The thickness and height of the transposed canine, the labiopalatal and distomedial distance from the transposed canine to the apex of the lateral incisor, the inclination of the transposed lateral incisor, the apical height of the lateral incisor, and the alveolar bone thickness in the apical plane were measured. Multiple linear regression analyses were applied to investigate the factors affecting alveolar bone thickness in the apical plane of the transposed lateral incisor. Two sample t test were applied to assess the difference of alveolar bone thickness in patients of different ages. RESULTS The 10 boys and 24 girls had a mean age of 12.26 ± 2.34 years. In all 34 participants, the apical alveolar bone thickness of transposed lateral incisors was significantly higher than that of the unaffected side (P <0.05). Based on multiple regression analyses, factors associated with a wider alveolar bone thickness were as follows: age (β = -0.237; P = 0.008), the labiopalatal distance from the transposed canine to the apex of the lateral incisor (β = 0.675; P <0.001), and the inclination of the transposed lateral incisor (β = 0.048; P = 0.032). Patients aged <11 years had significantly thicker alveolar bone than that of patients aged >11 years (P <0.05). CONCLUSIONS Patients with younger age, greater lateral incisor inclination, and greater labiopalatal distance between canine and lateral incisor had more alveolar bone thickness. Early treatment permits tooth movement within the thicker alveolar bone.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Dilaceration is a rare dental developmental anomaly characterized by an abrupt deviation along the longitudinal axis of the root in which an angulation forms between the root and the crown. Here, we report on dilacerated bilateral maxillary central incisors in mixed dentition. CASE SUMMARY A 10-year-old girl presented with a chief complaint of unerupted central incisors. An oral examination and radiography provided the basis for a diagnosis of dilaceration of the maxillary central incisors. After surgical exposure of the impacted teeth, a button with an attached chain was applied to the palatal surface of teeth 11 and 21. After 8 mo, a button was bonded to the labial surface of the crown to fix an elastic chain and move the teeth toward the maxillary arch. Finally, a fixed appliance was applied to tooth alignment to Class 1 malocclusion using a 0.019 × 0.025-inch nickel-titanium wire. After 3 years of follow-up, the clinical findings and radiographic assessment showed that the roots had developed with vital dental pulp and healthy periodontium, were acceptable aesthetically, and showed no resorption. CONCLUSION The rare occurrences of dilacerated bilateral maxillary central incisors can be successfully treated through surgical exposure and orthodontics.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION This study aimed to investigate the height and thickness of alveolar bone by cone-beam computed tomography imaging after orthodontic treatment in the unilateral maxillary anterior region and speculate on reasons for the difference in alveolar bone morphology. METHODS This study selected 11 patients (3 males and 8 females; mean age, 9.42 ± 1.45 years). Cone-beam computed tomography was performed for these 11 patients before and after treatment using Dolphin Imaging software (Dolphin Imaging and Management Solutions, Chatsworth, Calif). Labial and palatal alveolar bone thickness (BT) at root apices and different levels along the roots and loss of alveolar bone height was measured for each impacted tooth and its contralateral homonymous tooth. RESULTS After orthodontic therapy, all 3 impacted anterior teeth had different degrees of loss of labial alveolar bone height compared with the normal side (central incisor: -1.5 mm, P <0.005; lateral incisor: -1.06 mm, P <0.01; canine: -0.59 mm, P < 0.01). The lateral incisors also showed palatal alveolar bone height loss compared with the unaffected side (-0.8 mm, P <0.005). Alveolar BT at root apices of impacted canines was 1.14 mm thicker than the normal side (P <0.005). Central and lateral incisors were similar to the normal side. The thickness of the alveolar bone at 8, 10, and 12 mm of the impacted canine position was still larger than that on the healthy side, whereas the difference in average thickness between the healthy and affected side had been significantly reduced compared with pretreatment measurements. CONCLUSIONS There is satisfactory retention of alveolar bone height in canines after orthodontic treatment; however, alveolar bone loss is slightly worse at central and lateral incisors. Retention of alveolar BT was normal for impacted anterior teeth, whereas excess apical alveolar BT at the canines, although still present, was substantially less significant than had been observed before treatment.

Abstract
PURPOSES This study aimed to contribute to understanding the factors affecting the time of traction treatment of impacted dilacerated maxillary central incisors. METHODS This retrospective study included children aged 8 - 11 years with a history of trauma, who applied to the pediatric dentistry clinics of Marmara University, School of Dentistry, between December 2013 and December 2019, and were treated for unilateral impacted dilacerated maxillary upper central incisors. Children's age, sex, digital panoramic radiographs, cone-beam computed tomography, and intraoral photographs were retrieved from electronic dental health records. The effects of children's age, sex, the direction of impacted teeth, distance of the teeth to the top of the alveolar crest, and root dilaceration level on traction time were analyzed by Mann-Whitney U test and Spearman's rank correlation coefficient test. RESULTS The inverse position of the incisors significantly increased the traction time (P = 0.012). However, the traction time did not differ according to the sex of the children (P = 0.707) or the level of root dilaceration (P = 0.429). No correlation was observed between the traction time and the age of children (P = 0.644) or the distance of the incisors from the top of the alveolar crest (P = 0.397). CONCLUSIONS In cases of the forced eruption of for the impacted dilacerated maxillary central incisors, the direction of the teeth should be evaluated when deciding on the treatment plan, as it may affect the treatment time.

Am J Orthod Dentofacial Orthop 2023:S0889-5406(23)00062-8. [PMID: 36842949 DOI: 10.1016/j.ajodo.2022.10.028] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/01/2022] [Revised: 10/01/2022] [Accepted: 10/01/2022] [Indexed: 02/28/2023]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION This retrospective study aimed to evaluate the further development of the lateral incisor and its associated periodontium adjacent to the treated labial inversely impacted maxillary central incisor. METHODS We enrolled 23 participants (average age, 8.24 ± 1.43 years) undergoing a mean follow-up period of 31.10 ± 13.05 months. Each participant had an unimpacted lateral incisor and a successfully treated unilateral labial inversely impacted maxillary central incisor. The contralateral lateral incisors served as controls. Cone-beam computed tomography data were available for treatment completion and follow-up stages. The variables (including root length, dental age, root canal width, root-crown angulation, and alveolar bone loss and thickness) were evaluated with Dolphin Imaging software (version 11.95; Dolphin Imaging and Management Solutions, Chatsworth, Calif). RESULTS At the follow-up stage, the lateral incisors in the impacted side had significantly longer root lengths, smaller root canal widths, and thinner labial bone widths at the apex than at the posttreatment stage (P <0.001, P = 0.036, and P = 0.001, respectively). A significant lateral incisor root length reduction was noted when comparing the impacted and contralateral sides, although no variation was observed in root canal width. Similarly, crown-root angulation of the lateral incisor on the impacted side was significantly larger than that of the contralateral lateral incisor. The lateral incisor on the impacted side also had thicker labial and thinner lingual bone widths at the apex than the contralateral lateral incisor. CONCLUSIONS The lateral incisor adjacent to the successfully treated labial inversely impacted maxillary central incisor showed continuous growth during follow-up stages, exhibiting a similar morphology and alveolar bone quality but shorter root length, larger root angulation, and thinner lingual bone width at the apex than those of the contralateral lateral incisors.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION This study aimed to investigate the effect of root dilaceration on the closed-eruption technique treatment and prognosis on impacted immature maxillary central incisors. METHODS In this retrospective study, we compared the age at the beginning of the treatment, the treatment duration, root development, and alveolar bone mass after the closed-eruption technique between the impacted immature maxillary central incisors with dilacerated roots (group 1) and those with straight roots (group 2). RESULTS The mean age at the time of the surgery of group 1 was 0.9 years younger than that of group 2 (P = 0.008). The mean traction time was greater in group 1 (8.0 ± 1.8 months), with a difference of 1.4 months than in group 2 (6.6 ± 2.1 months) (P = 0.042). The measurements of lingual bone thickness at the alveolar crest (C) showed significant differences between the 2 groups (P = 0.025). No significant differences were found in other treatment duration or measurements of root development and alveolar bone mass between the 2 groups. CONCLUSIONS Patients with impacted immature incisors with dilacerated roots were younger at the beginning of the closed-eruption treatment and had a longer traction time than those with impacted immature incisors having straight roots. The root dilaceration had little or no effect on root development and alveolar bone mass after the closed-eruption treatment. The closed-eruption treatment of impacted immature incisors with root dilaceration is suggested to commence as early as possible.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION This study investigated the position and morphologic characteristics of multiple impacted anterior teeth in the unilateral maxillary area. METHODS Cone-beam computed tomography images of 21 patients (11 males and 10 females; median age 9.42 years [9.08-11.29]) with multiple teeth impacted were collected and imported into Dolphin Imaging software (Dolphin Imaging and Management Solutions, Chatsworth, Calif). The vertical height, crown orientation, twist direction, and root curvature of each impacted tooth were described. The crown length, root length, and root canal width of impacted and homonym teeth were measured. RESULTS The positions of the impacted lateral incisors are lower than that of the other 2 anterior teeth. Most crowns of impacted central incisors are positioned distally, labial surfaces in mesial torsion, with most roots, bent toward the distal and labial. Crowns of impacted lateral incisors are positioned mesiolabially, with labial surfaces mostly in distal torsion, and most roots bent toward the mesial and labial. Crowns of impacted canines are mostly positioned mesiolabially, with labial surfaces in mesial torsion. The crowns and roots of the impacted central and lateral incisors were shorter than those of the homonym (P <0.05); however, the difference in crown length is clinically negligible, and there was no difference in root canal widths. There was no difference in the comparison of parameters for the canine group. CONCLUSIONS There are certain rules in the vertical height, crown orientation, twist direction, and root curvature of multiple impacted anterior teeth in the unilateral maxillary area. Root development of impacted central and lateral incisors was restricted.

The enhanced conservation of vital pulp and apical tissues by the application of crown rotation surgery for inversely impacted central incisors: a follow-up analysis of two patients over four years. Int Endod J 2022; 55:882-888. [PMID: 35543607 DOI: 10.1111/iej.13761] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/12/2021] [Revised: 05/03/2022] [Accepted: 05/04/2022] [Indexed: 12/01/2022]
Abstract
AIM To describe a novel surgical method (crown rotation surgery) to manage inversely impacted central incisors with immature roots. SUMMARY Two young patients each presented with an inversely impacted maxillary central incisor. To protect the apical tissues, the two impacted incisors were rotated downwards to a relatively normal position without extraction from their bony sockets. After crown rotation surgery, spontaneous eruption, continuous root development, and periodontal healing of the rotated incisors were observed. The pulp retained vitality and blood flow was normal. Moreover, there were no obvious signs of pulp canal obliteration (PCO), as indicated by Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) imaging. KEY LEARNING POINTS • By optimising protection of the vital pulp and apical tissues, crown rotation surgery represents a minimally invasive, conservative, and practical surgical technique for treating inversely impacted incisors with developing roots. • In contrast to existing surgical methods, crown rotation surgery may avoid certain complications, including PCO and abnormal or arrested root development.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to evaluate the clinical and radiographic periodontal status of impacted permanent maxillary central incisors (Mx.1) after a long term of orthodontic traction. METHODOLOGY This split-mouth study evaluated a sample of 11 patients (five females, six males) treated with Mx.1 unilateral traction one to 28 years after the removal of orthodontic appliances. The traction Group (TG) consisted of 11 Mx.1 and the Comparison Group (CG) comprised 11 spontaneously erupted contralateral Mx.1. High-resolution CBCT exams of central incisors were performed using Accuitomo (J. Morita, Kyoto, Japan). Cross-section imagens passing through the center of maxillary central incisors were used to measure buccal and lingual alveolar bone level. Presence of fenestration, root dilacerations, root coverage, and position of the root apex were also assessed in the same images. Clinical parameters included periodontal probing depth, attachment level, gingival bleeding index, plaque index, degree of gingival recession, amount of gingival mucosa, and evaluation of interproximal papilla and black triangle. Digital model analysis included an assessment of clinical crown height and width. Intergroup comparisons were performed using paired t-, McNemar's, and Wilcoxon tests (p<0.05). RESULTS Compared to CG, we found a significantly thinner labial bone plate thickness in TG at the middle (p=0.000) and apical (p=0.009) root level. We also observed an apical displaced labial bone crest level in TG (p=0.000). The Traction Group showed a greater frequency of root dilacerations and gingival recessions, a decreased amount of keratinized mucosa, and a decreased clinical attachment level at the labial aspect compared to contralateral teeth. CONCLUSIONS A decreased thickness and height of labial alveolar bone and gingival recessions were found in maxillary central incisors 15 years after orthodontic traction. Though incisor traction might cause some periodontal impact, differences are acceptable under a clinical point of view considering the cost-benefit ratio.

Post-Treatment Status of Impacted Maxillary Central Incisors following Surgical-Orthodontic Treatment: A Systematic Review. MEDICINA-LITHUANIA 2021; 57:medicina57080783. [PMID: 34440987 PMCID: PMC8401854 DOI: 10.3390/medicina57080783] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/11/2021] [Revised: 07/26/2021] [Accepted: 07/29/2021] [Indexed: 11/17/2022]
Abstract
Background and Objectives: The aim of this systematic review was to summarize currently available data of published articles that have investigated the post-treatment status of impacted maxillary central incisors (ICI) treated by the surgical-orthodontic approach. Materials and Methods: MEDLINE, Scopus, Cochrane Oral Health Group’s Trials Register, and ScienceDirect electronic databases were systematically searched with no publication date restrictions up to January 2021. Data assessing the status of ICI after combined surgical-orthodontic treatment and forced eruption duration were extracted, and the quality of the studies was evaluated. Results: In total, 7074 studies were identified, of which 42 articles were assessed for eligibility through full-text evaluation. Seven included studies (five retrospective studies, one randomized clinical trial, and one prospective clinical trial) met the inclusion criteria, representing 211 patients with unilaterally impacted maxillary incisors. The risk of bias ranged from moderate to high. The results show that the root length of immature ICIs increased significantly but remained shorter than that of homonym teeth at post-treatment. Periodontal parameters of treated ICIs were in a clinically acceptable range. Measurements of the alveolar bone showed a reduction of bone thickness and support. The average forced eruption duration ranged from 8.0 ± 4.5 to 14.41 ± 4.03 months. Conclusions: Based on existing evidence, it is reasonable to conclude that the surgical-orthodontic treatment affected the post-treatment status of ICI; however, the current literature is insufficient to draw concrete conclusions. Further well-conducted multi-center randomized studies with a large sample are needed to confirm this statement.

In situ rotation surgery for correction of growing, inversely impacted maxillary central incisors. Am J Orthod Dentofacial Orthop 2021; 159:536-544. [PMID: 33568277 DOI: 10.1016/j.ajodo.2020.10.023] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/01/2020] [Revised: 10/01/2020] [Accepted: 10/01/2020] [Indexed: 11/21/2022]
Abstract
Treatment of an impacted incisor with a dilacerated root is challenging for clinicians because of the position of the impacted incisor, the abnormality of the root, unfavorable prognosis, and, especially, the long treatment duration. We report on 2 young patients who had inversely impacted maxillary central incisors with developing labially dilacerated roots. Both patients were treated by a novel surgical approach, in situ rotation, by which the crowns of the inversely impacted incisors were carefully rotated to a relatively normal position, whereas the apical location remained relatively unchanged. About 2 weeks after surgery, spontaneous eruption of the treated incisors was observed. Three months later, the postoperative central incisors were further aligned into the maxillary arch with a fixed orthodontic appliance. Follow-up visits 2 or 3 years after surgery indicated that the positions of the dilacerated incisors maintained stability with good gingival esthetics, and the pulpal vitality was favorable. The roots grew further in a relatively normal direction of the incisor's longitudinal axis, which was different from the initial curvature angle. Moreover, with the in situ rotation surgery, treatment time was greatly reduced and resulted in a favorable prognosis compared with conventional treatment.

Periodontal implications of surgical-orthodontic treatment of an impacted dilacerated maxillary incisor: A case report with a 2-year follow-up. Am J Orthod Dentofacial Orthop 2020; 158:443-451. [PMID: 32732005 DOI: 10.1016/j.ajodo.2020.06.005] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/01/2020] [Revised: 03/01/2020] [Accepted: 03/01/2020] [Indexed: 11/21/2022]
Abstract
The treatment of an 8-year-old girl with a dilacerated maxillary incisor began in the mixed dentition; a modified palatal arch attached to the molars served as anchorage for the forced eruption of the dilacerated tooth to prevent the intrusion of the adjacent teeth and reduce the risk of root resorption. Two surgical sessions were planned: the first to permit the closed eruption; the second was an apically positioned flap to add attached gingiva to the labial side of the erupting tooth. The result was an optimal periodontal outcome; moreover, the roots of the adjacent teeth did not show any sign of resorption at the end of the forced eruption. The tooth was vital at the end of the treatment, and the apex covered by alveolar mucosa. The root developed normally throughout the treatment, and the periodontium was healthy and esthetically acceptable at the 2-year follow-up. Further study is needed to assess the advantages of the combined surgical-orthodontic treatment.
