“…[8][9][10] Few studies also attempted to find the effect of torquing of incisors on position of point A. 4,6,[11][12][13] But only very few investigators tried to establish a direct association between the degrees of changes in the inclination of incisor to movement of point A. 2 With this background in this study, we made an attempt to determine the relation between the degree of incisor inclination correction and anteroposterior movement of point A by studying pre-and postalignment lateral cephalograms of class II division 2 and in class III patients.…”

Aim: To determine the actual position of point A by performing incisor inclination correction in class II division 2 and class III. Also, to determine the relation between the degree of incisor inclination correction and anteroposterior movement of point A by studying pre-and postalignment lateral cephalograms. Materials and methods:The pre-and postalignment lateral cephalograms of 33 class II division 2 and 33 class III patients treated orthodontically were traced manually and analyzed. The linear anteroposterior measurements of point A and center of rotation in relation to the vertical reference plane and angular measurements of upper incisor to maxillary plane were calculated. Results:In class II division 2 category, the mean change in inclination from pre-to postalignment was 15.27°, mean change in position of center of rotation was −1.29 mm, and mean change in position of point A from pre-to postalignment was −2.67 mm. In class III category, the mean change in inclination from pre-to postalignment was −5.85°, mean change in position of center of rotation from pre-to postalignment was 1.94 mm, and mean change in position of point A from pre-to postalignment was 1.77 mm. Conclusion:The results of the study confirmed that for every 10° proclination of the upper incisor in class II division 2, point A moves 0.3 mm palatally and for every 10° retroclination of the upper incisor in class III, point A moves 0.73 mm labially. Clinical significance:In the clinical scenario of severely retroclined/proclined incisors, point A cannot depict the actual anterior limit of maxilla. Hence, when we use SNA to determine the anteroposterior position of maxilla and ANB to determine maxillomandibular difference, invariably we get altered values. Therefore, it is necessary to find an equation between the degree of incisor inclination correction and anteroposterior movement of point A.

“…A few studies have attempted to investigate the effect of incisor inclination on the position of points A and B. Erverdi [12] showed a direct correlation between incisor inclination changes and point A. Hassan et al [13]found that if the upper incisor is retroclined by 10°, point A will move superiorly by 0.6 mm. In another study by Bicakci et al [14], it was found that the proclination of the maxillary incisors along with the backward movement of the incisor root apex causes a change in the horizontal position of point A. It was suggested to use the linear movement of the incisor apex, rather than the angular measurements to evaluate the sagittal change of point A [14].…”

Background: The morphology of the anterior alveolar bone may change after the retraction of incisors in premolar extraction cases in orthodontics. Methods: Pre- (T0) and post-treatment (T1) lateral cephalograms of 477 subjects in the maxilla and 226 subjects in the mandible who underwent the orthodontic treatment with extraction of 2 premolars in upper or lower arches were included. Alveolar bone width and height in both the maxillary and mandible incisor area were measured at T0 and T1 respectively. By superimposing the T0 and T1 cephalometric tracings, changes of points A and B, and the movement of the incisors were also measured. Results: The alveolar bone width (ABW) showed a significant decrease in both maxilla and mandible (P<0.001) except the labial side of the mandible, which exhibited slight increase, though statistically insignificant (P>0.05). The alveolar bone height (ABH) showed a significant increase in the labial side of maxilla and a significant decrease in the lingual side of maxilla and mandible. A strong positive correlation was observed between incisor movement and position changes of points A and B both in the horizontal and vertical direction. Conclusions: Anterior alveolar bone width and height generally decreased after orthodontic treatment. Incisor retraction led to a significant position changes of points A and B.

“…However the points are dento-alveolar and are considered unreliable as they are affected by surface remodelling and underlying tooth position. 4 Post-operative skeletal position should rely on basal bone assessment as any post-operative dental changes may camouflage the true basal bone position. Therefore clinical or 2D radiological assessment of teeth position may not accurately reflect basal bone changes.…”
