Therapeutic accuracy of the completely customized lingual appliance WIN

Abstract: ObjectiveThe aim of this retrospective cohort study was to assess the accuracy of the completely customized lingual appliance WIN (DW Lingual Systems, Bad Essen, Germany) employing a three-dimensional (3D) comparison between the setup and the final result.Materials and methodsThe setup and final models of 20 consecutively debonded patients (40 jaws; 7 males, 13 females; mean age 15.76 ± 4.45 years) with various malocclusions of a private practice specialized in orthodontics were digitalized using a 3D scanner.… Show more

“…• Reduction of the incidence of decalcification with its inherent savings in terms of enamel and financial burden (see discussion below), 20 • Individualized treatment plans that can be predictably transferred to the patients' mouth, 21 F I G U R E 4 Small changes in angulation as seen in the lower right first molar can have a significant adverse effect on occlusion in all three planes of space-especially in the vertical dimension. In crowded situations the angulation discrepancy may not be perceptible until late in treatment.…”

“…Von erwachsenen Patienten wird häufig eine möglichst ästhetisch unauffällige Korrektur von Zahnfehlstellungen gewünscht. Es konnte bereits gezeigt werden, dass geplante Zahnbewegungen mit einer vollständig individuellen lingualen Apparatur mit hoher Genauigkeit umzusetzen sind [8,9] -dies deckt sich mit dieser Kasuistik. Im Zuge des Herstellungsprozesses der Apparatur ist die Erstellung eines physischen therapeutischen Setups eine Conditio sine qua non.…”

“…In order to address these issues of controlling the moment/ force ratio adequately, the bracket slots of the CCLAs used in this study were made by high-speed milling with manufacturing tolerances of only up to ±2 μm (<0.5%) [38]. As a consequence, the magnitude of torque expression with these appliances compared to conventional labial or lingual brackets can be easily controlled by the orthodontic specialist [37,[39][40][41][42][43][44][45]. In order to account for torque play, the undersized maxillary rectangular 0.016 00 × 0.024 00 stainless steel archwires of the CCLA used here during space closure were provided with an incorporated canine-to-canine extra torque bend of 13°, and, in the case of one patient, 21°.…”
