Development of orthodontics in china • Removable • Begg • Edgewise • Straightwire (pre-adjusted)
Bracket • Metal • Ceramic • Plastic
Disadvantages of ceramic brackets • The bond is too strong • Brittle • Too hard • High friction
Band • (1) Buccal and often lingual attachments are soldered or welded. • (2) Piror to placement of a band it may be necessary to separate the adjacent tooth contacts. • (3) There are different sizes of bands for different sizes of molar. • (4) Glass ionomer cement is used for band cementation.
Archwires • Stainless steel wire • NiTi wire • Mutistrand wire
Round wire: 0.014”,16”,18” • Rectangular wire:0.016”x0.022”,et al.
Sequence • From thin to thick • From NiTi to stainless steel • From round to rectangular
First-order bends: horizontal plane • Second-order bends: vertical plane • Third-order bends: torque
Orthodontic adhesives • Band cement: glass ionomer, zinc phosphate • Bonding adhesive: chemical-cured, light-cured
Chemical-cured adhesive • One-paste • Two-paste
A set of bonding adhesive • Paste A • Paste B • Sealant A • Sealant B • Etching solution
Bonding procedure • Clean the teeth • Etch the teeth • paint the sealant mixture • paint the paste mixture • place the brackets
