DESIGN FOR HORIZONTAL orthodontic tooth movement metered LOADS

摘要

Orthodontic design for horizontal movement of teeth metered loads consists of cast metal rings on the abutment teeth (incisors and canines), locking members (braces), soldered to the vestibular side of the rings, and springs arc of a nickel-titanium alloy. The device allows to move the teeth in the vestibular direction without use on molars cast metal trays, stages simulate tooth movement and retention period of orthodontic treatment.
