Anchorage condition during canine retraction using transpalatal arch with continuous and segmented arch mechanics

Abstract: Objective: To compare anchorage condition in cases in which transpalatal arch was used to enhance anchorage in both continuous and segmented arch techniques. Materials and Methods: Twenty cases that required first premolar extraction for orthodontic treatment and transpalatal arch to enhance anchorage were included in this study. Ten cases were treated using the continuous arch technique, while the other 10 cases were treated using 0.019 3 0.025-inch TMA T-loops with posterior anchorage bend according to the B… Show more

“…Mean anchorage loss in both appliance groups ranged from 3.30 mm to 3.86 mm and, after excluding cases with anchorage devices, it ranged from 3.26 mm to 4.17 mm for the 0.018-inch and 0.022-inch slot bracket systems, respectively. This was slightly less than that found by Alhadlaq et al 34 when using a transpalatal arch with continuous arch mechanics (4.5 mm measured cephalometrically). However, anchorage loss was greater than reported by Lee and Kim 35 for both their TADs and conventional anchorage reinforcement (headgear) groups, which could explain the reduced anchorage loss in that study.…”

“…Whether the use of TPA and a second molar as reinforcement anchorage can reduce stress remains unclear. Reducing the stress distribution is thought to reduce the anchorage loss, and some clinicians believe that TPA prevents the loss of anchorage [1][2][3]. However, it was previously reported that TPA does not significantly affect anchorage [4,5].…”

“…Although previous studies suggested that the adjunctive use of TADs should be signi icantly favored over the only use of TPA as an anchorage device during retraction when accurately stipulated (Diar-Bakirly et al, 2017). Results of previous studies show that TPA alone doesn't reduce anchorage loss when used with continuous arch mechanics owing to the very fact that different and unequal moments are often applied with TPA, as in cases of unilateral arch expansion (Alhadlaq et al, 2016). Transpalatal arch poses the danger of coming on the brink of the palatal tissue and getting embedded within the palatal tissue (Samantha et al, 2017), hence the "U" loops are often adjusted by constriction of the loops to stay the transpalatal arch faraway from the palatal tissues (Kumar et al, 2014).…”
