Improved first and second order control in tip edge and preadjusted edgewise appliance: KD ligation technique
Journal Title: IP Indian Journal of Orthodontics and Dentofacial Research - Year 2018, Vol 4, Issue 4
Abstract
Tip edge brackets have evolved from the edgewise brackets with the removal of the diagonally opposite corners to incorporate the features of the Beggs philosophy Consequently with the increase in the versatility of the brackets additional auxillaries were required during the finishing stage of the orthodontic treatment With different malocclusions having different requirements it strains the limit for which the brackets are designed Thus it comes to the versatility of orthodontist skills to device techniques to use the full potential of the brackets while achieving the treatment objectives in the most efficient way In the present case report we have enumerated the versatility of ligation techniques which can be used to suit the needs of the case and achieve the correction of the malocclusion in the most efficient wayKeywords Tip edge brackets Ligation technique First and Second Order control Preadjusted Edgewise Brackets
