Orthodontic treatment of severe crowding malocclusion with temporomandibular joint closed-lock by means of multi-loop edgewise archwire: a case report

Abstract: In this case report, crowding malocclusion with TMJ (temporomandibular joint) closed lock was treated with modified offset archwire (MOAW) and multi-loop edgewise archwire (MEAW). Owing to the TMD (temporomandibular disorder) problems, we decided to extract the lower third and upper second molars. Crowding in the upper and lower arches was successfully treated with the improvement of TMD. Condylar movement was improved by orthodontic treatment with DY shift noted on condylographic evaluation. Two years after t… Show more

“…Third molar extraction was ade- c quate to achieve the treatment objectives because the third molars could have a negative effect on occlusion [13]. Application of the MEAW mechanics was also optimum for correcting the inclined tooth axis (uprighting) within a relatively short treatment time [3]. The active treatment took 14 months and retention time using a removable appliance was 6 months.…”

“…Pemakaian multiloop meliputi regio anterior dan posterior dengan variasi bentuk loop memberikan kombinasi arah gaya untuk koreksi malposisi gigi individual. 9 Penulisan laporan kasus ini telah mendapat persetujuan dari pasien dan pasien tidak keberatan jika kasus tersebut dipublikasikan dalam majalah Ilmiah Kedokteran Gigi. Saat ini pasien masih dalam tahap perawatan retraksi kaninus, setelah retraksi kaninus selesai akan dilanjutkan dengan retraksi anterior, perbaikan interdigitasi, dan oklusal adjustment.…”

“…10 Pemakaian multiloop meliputi regio anterior dan posterior dengan variasi bentuk loop memberikan kombinasi arah gaya untuk koreksi malposisi gigi individual. 9 Pergerakan gigi individual yang dihasilkan dari multiloop archwire lebih seragam dan seimbang serta memiliki kelebihan dalam pergerakan distal enmasse pada gigi mandibula. 11,12 Multiloop archwire efektif dalam meneliminasi crowding akan tetapi dapat juga meningkatkan dimensi vertikal sehingga memberikan dukungan oklusi yang stabil.…”

“…4 Results from different modalities of TMD treatment indicate that recovering the harmony between the stability of the TMJ and support by occlusion is more important for providing long-lasting function of the masticatory system than we expected before. 5 A stabilization splint is a hard acrylic splint that provides a temporary and removable ideal occlusion to reduce abnormal muscle activity and produces neuromuscular balance. With regard to the efficacy of stabilization splint treatment for TMD, much controversial research exists.…”
