Читать книгу Orthodontic Treatment of Impacted Teeth - Adrian Becker - Страница 47

There are six basic elements employed in the treatment mechanics, specifically for the alignment of ectopic teeth. They are:

 The cantilever.

 The torsion/ballista spring.

 Elastics or closed‐coil springs.

 Piggyback arch wire.

 The V bend/root spring (alpha–beta spring).

 Torqueing auxiliaries.

Preference depends entirely on the directional requirement of the movement needed and the proximity of the ectopic tooth to the continuous archwire.
