TITLE PAGE Treatment Outcome with Orthodontic Aligners and Fixed
Zurich Open Repository and Archive University of Zurich Main Library Strickhofstrasse 39 CH-8057 Zurich www.zora.uzh.ch Year: 2020 Treatment outcome with orthodontic aligners and fixed appliances: a systematic review with meta-analyses Papageorgiou, Spyridon N ; Koletsi, Despina ; Iliadi, Anna ; Peltomaki, Timo ; Eliades, Theodore Abstract: Background: The use of orthodontic aligners to treat a variety of malocclusions has seen considerable increase in the last years, yet evidence about their efficacy and adverse effects relative to conventional fixed orthodontic appliances remains unclear. Objective: This systematic review assesses the efficacy of aligners and fixed appliances for comprehensive orthodontic treatment. Search methods: Eight databases were searched without limitations in April 2019. Selection criteria: Randomized or matched non-randomized studies. Data collection and analysis: Study selection, data extraction, and risk of bias assessment was done independently in triplicate. Random-effects meta-analyses of mean differences (MDs) or relative risks (RRs) with their 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were conducted, followed by sensitivity analyses, and the GRADE analysis of the evidence quality.Results: A total of 11 studies (4 randomized/7 non-randomized) were included comparing aligners with braces (887 patients; mean age 28.0 years; 33% male). Moderate quality evidence indicated that treatment with orthodontic aligners is associated with worse occlusal outcome with the American Board of Orthodontics Objective Grading System (3 studies; MD = 9.9; 95% CI = 3.6-16.2) and more patients with unacceptable results (3 studies; RR = 1.6; 95% CI = 1.2-2.0). No significant differences were seen for treatment duration. The main limitations of existing evidence pertained to risk of bias, inconsistency, and imprecision of included studies. -

Sheldon Friel Memorial Lecture, presented 13 June 2016 at the 92nd Congress of the European Orthodontic Society, Stockholm, Sweden. Summary Background and objectives: From the beginnings of modern orthodontics, questions have been raised about the extraction of healthy permanent teeth in order to correct malocclusions. A hundred years ago, orthodontic tooth extraction was debated with almost religious intensity by experts on either side of the issue. Sheldon Friel and his mentor Edward H. Angle both had much to say about this controversy. Today, after significant progress in orthodontic practice, similar arguments are being voiced between nonextraction expansionists and those who see the need for tooth extractions in some orthodontic patients. Furthermore, varying concepts of mechanical retention of -

Treatment of Class II Maxillary Retrusion Case Using Miniscrew (Nonextraction Treatment of Adolescent Patient)
Case Report Treatment of Class II Maxillary Retrusion Case Using Miniscrew (Nonextraction Treatment of Adolescent Patient) Fulya Ozdemir, DDS, PhD;1 Volkan Osman Uyar, DDS, PhD;2 Feyza Ulkur, DDS, PhD3 ABSTRACT Objective: This case report describes the protocol employed in the treatment of a patient with Class II subdivision malocclusion, with sagittal, transverse, and occlusal disharmonies. Materials and Methods: Treatment included the expansion of the maxilla with a banded Hyrax appliance over a period of 14 days. After a retention period, the device was removed and a stainless steel transpalatal arch was attached. The maxillary arch was bonded with MBT prescription brackets, and distalization of the left maxillary first molar commenced on a 0.016 3 0.022-inch stainless steel archwire supported by a miniscrew for indirect anchorage. After 4.7 mm of molar distalization, a Nance appliance with a bite plane was placed, and the mandibular arch was bonded to continue treatment, which lasted 18 months. Mandibular and maxillary fixed retainers were placed at the end of active treatment. Results: Pretreatment and posttreatment records showed that vertical and sagittal skeletal cephalometric findings were stable. Conclusion: A nonextraction and miniscrew anchorage approach for distalization is an effective treatment option for dental Class II correction. (Turkish J Orthod 2015;27:117–127) KEY WORDS: Class II, miniscrew, distalization INTRODUCTION Treatment choices to manage a Class II subdivi- sion malocclusion could involve extractions, a In 1899, Edward Angle described 3 classes of nonextraction approach, or surgery depending on malocclusion based on the anteroposterior occlusal the nature and extent of the problem. -

At one-year follow-up, clear aligners’ therapy resulted in skeletal and dental improvements. Clear aligners therapy represents a valid alternative to fixed appliance therapy in the early interception of class III malocclusion.
