Chapter 5: Sagittal, vertical and transversal discrepancies between the jaws
Figure 5.1 Examples of reference points used in the cephalometric analysis according to Björk (1955).
Figure 5.2 Important reference lines and angles according to Björk (1955). Lines: NSL = cranial base line; NL = nasal line; ML = mandibular line. Angles: SNA = sagittal relation of the maxilla; SNB = sagittal relation of the mandible; ANB = sagittal inter jaw relation; ILs/NL maxillary incisor inclination; Ili/ML = mandibular incisor inclination; NSL/NL = vertical inclination of the maxilla; NSL/ML = vertical inclination of the mandible; NL/ML = vertical inter jaw relation.
Figure 5.3 Class III skeletal relation, i.e. a negative ANB angle implying the SNA angle (the angle between the black and blue line) is smaller than the SNB angle (the angle between the black and red line).
Figure 5.4 Class II skeletal relation, i.e. a positive ANB angle implying the SNA angle (black and blue line) is larger (>5 degrees) than the SNB angle (black and red line).
Figure 5.5 Low-angle or hypodivergent case, the angle between NSL and ML is small implying a skeletal deep overbite.
Figure 5.6 High-angle or hyperdivergent case, the angle between NSL and ML is large implying a skeletal open bite.
Figure 5.7 In this case the intention is with a functional appliance to move the mandible forward (a) for correction of the Class II malocclusion and simultaneously opens the bite as well as retroclination of the maxillary incisors (blue arrow) and proclination of mandibular incisors (white arrow in b). In (c), the occlusal acrylic over the mandibular molars and premolars has been removed to allow those teeth to vertically over-erupt (blue arrows), and thereby create bite opening. The functional appliances can also be combined with a headgear (d) to restrain the forward growth of the maxilla (red arrow).
Figure 5.8 Class II elastics for correction of a Class II malocclusion. The objective is to create a Class I occlusion by distal movement of the maxillary teeth (green arrow) and mesial movement of the corresponding mandibular teeth (red arrow). The force distribution of Class II elastics also results in a bite opening effect (yellow arrows).
Figure 5.9 A casted Herbst appliance (a). The Herbst appliance in place with a forward movement of the mandible to an almost incisal edge-to-edge relation (b,c). A firm Class I occlusion result after treatment (d,e).
Figure 5.10 In this Class II malocclusion case with normal skeletal relationship between the jaws (a), bilateral extraction of the maxillary first premolars has been performed and then a fixed appliance in both jaws was inserted (b). The final treatment result (c) with a Class I relation between the canines and Class II relation between the molars.
Figure 5.11 In (a), a removable appliance for correction of a Class III malocclusion (pseudo Class III) with a protrusion spring for proclination of the maxillary incisors (blue arrow). In (b), bilateral occlusal coverage (red arrow) of the maxillary posterior teeth to avoid vertical interlock between the incisors in crossbite. To retrocline the mandibular incisors, a labial bow has been inserted (blue arrow).
Figure 5.12 Fixed multibracket appliance for proclination of the maxillary incisors (red arrows) in a pseudo Class III malocclusion case.
Figure 5.13 Class III elastics for correction of a Class III malocclusion. The objective is to create a Class I occlusion by mesial movement of the maxillary teeth (red arrow) and distal movement of the corresponding mandibular teeth (blue arrow). The force distribution of Class III elastics also results in a bite opening effect (yellow arrows).
Figure 5.14 The reverse headgear (a) will be applied with elastics to a removable appliance in the maxilla (b) and move the jaw and teeth in a mesial direction (red arrow).
Figure 5.15 A fixed bite plane cemented with bands on the first maxillary molars (a). In occlusion, the mandibular incisors are in contact with the bite plane and between the maxillary and mandibular premolars and molars, a separation space of 3 to 4 mm is created (b), for vertical development of the lateral segments (yellow arrows) and thereby bite opening.
Figure 5.16 In (a,b), a removable appliance with a vertical crib.
Figure 5.17 A transpalatal bar soldered to the maxillary first molar bands (a). Since the bar is 6 to 8 mm away from the palatal mucosa, there will be pressure by the tongue on the bar and this pressure causes intrusion forces on the maxillary first molars. A clear imprint by the bar can be seen on the tongue (b), indicating pressure by the bar on the tongue.
Figure 5.18 A Quad Helix. When the Quad Helix is inserted, the lingual arch with the 4 loops are transversally compressed, resulting in expansion forces on the teeth (blue arrows).
Figure 5.19 A removable acrylic expansion plate is retained with clasps on the maxillary first permanent molars and the deciduous first molars. The screw in the middle of the plate is activated once or twice a week (0.2–0.4 mm), producing transversal expansion forces on the teeth (red arrows).
Figure 5.20 In (a), a cross-elastic between a palatal placed bracket on the right maxillary first molar and a buccal bracket on the right mandibular first molar. In (b), the maxillary molar is moved buccally and the mandibular molar lingually (yellow arrows). Both molars are also extruded (red arrows).
Figure 5.21 A RME appliance cemented on the maxillary first premolars and molars (a). The central screw is activated once or twice a day corresponding to an expansion of between 0.2 and 0.4 mm. Intra oral radiographs of maxillary incisors before and after RME (b,c). The X-ray image (c) shows a clear widening of the median palatal suture (yellow arrow). After expansion, a multibracket fixed appliance has created good alignment of the teeth (d), and the result after 1.5 years of treatment (e).

Chapter 6: Crowding of teeth
Figure 6.1 Arch length, from the mesial surface of the first permanent molar to the distal surface of the lateral incisor (the line at the blue arrow). The anterior length represents the distance between the mesial surface of the canine and the midline of the dental arch (the line at the red arrow). The intercanine width is the distance between the crown tips of the canines (the red line).
Figure 6.2 Models with a small apical base, shaded area in the drawing (a,c), the skeletal base is not sufficiently large for the teeth and therefore the incisors are proclined. A large apical base (b,d) resulting in vertical positions of the teeth.
Figure 6.3 Slight anterior mandibular incisor crowding in the mixed dentition (a) and the crowding will most often self-correct during the development to the permanent dentition as observed in this case (b).
Figure 6.4 A moderate anterior crowding, and in this case it is recommended to slice off the mesial surfaces of the deciduous left canine (blue arrow) to create extra space for the lateral incisor to self-align.
Figure 6.5 The maxillary arch of a 10-year-old girl showing crowded incisors (a). Some years later (b), after extraction of the primary canines and extraction of the first premolars. The incisors are spontaneously corrected and only a short period with fixed appliance remains to correct the left premolar and to close the small spacings.
Figure 6.6 The maxillary premolars and molars on the left side have moved mesially, resulting in a Class II malocclusion and a crowded maxillary left canine (a). After distal molar movement of 4 mm during 6 months (b) and a subsequent multibracket fixed appliance (c). The result one year after treatment (d).
Figure 6.7 In this crowded case (a), transversal expansion with a multibracket fixed appliance has been achieved (b), and a final good alignment of the teeth has been created (c).
Figure 6.8 In the Invisalign technique, a series of aligners are used, and in (a) one of the aligners. Before treatment and a slight crowding of maxillary central incisors (b). The aligners inserted in both jaws (c), and after 4 months of treatment, the central incisors are almost fully aligned (d). Photos with permission of Dr Thor Henrikson.
Figure 6.9 In (a), a miniscrew (TAD) has been inserted between the roots of the maxillary second premolar and first molar to create reinforced anchorage during space closure. In (b), two TADs (miniscrews) have been inserted in the palate for anchorage support during distal molar movement.
Figure 6.10 In (a, b), shows a severe crowded case solved by bilateral first premolar extractions in each jaw followed by bimaxillary fixed multibracket appliance (c, d). The final result (e, f).
Figure 6.11 In slight crowding cases, enamel reduction can be assessed to create space. In (a), the reduction is performed by a diamond strip and in (b), by an air-rotor drill.

Figure 7.7 A transplanted maxillary third molar (white arrow) that has replaced the missed mandibular second premolar.
Chapter 8: Malposition of single teeth
Figure 8.1 At the age of 11.6 years, the mandibular second primary molars are in occlusion, and there is agenesis of the mandibular second premolars (a). Two years later, infraocclusion is evident on both primary molars (b). At the age of 16, a more pronounced infraocclusion on the second primary molars and the first premolars have started to tip distally (c).
Figure 8.2 Severe infraocclusion of the mandibular right first permanent molar, age 12 (a). Further tipping of the adjacent teeth (b). Space gaining and surgical exposure of the infraoccluded permanent molar (c). After orthodontic traction, the molar has erupted into occlusion (d).
Figure 8.3 Girl, 6 years of age, maxillary first permanent molars in ectopic eruption and atypical resorption on the second primary molars (a,b). Right second primary molar is lost and severe space deficiency for the second premolar due to mesial movement of the first permanent molar (c). In (d), the left permanent molar has freed itself and shows reversible ectopic eruption.
Figure 8.4 Left radiograph, girl, 7 years of age, with maxillary left permanent molar in ectopic eruption; the molar is still locked in the resorption distally on the second primary molar. Middle radiograph, 1 year later. The molar has freed itself, and the resorption is increased. Radiograph to the right shows the situation at the age of 9.5 years, with a hard tissue repair. In a follow-up study of 92 cases with resorbed second primary molar, 15 teeth showed hard tissue repair of the structure of the primary tooth, and this could be seen both on the radiographs and histologically (Kurol and Bjerklin, 1982a, 1982b).
Figure 8.5 To avoid influencing growth of the jaw, a local space maintainer can be recommended in cases where space should be maintained until eruption of the second premolar.
Figure 8.6 Both maxillary canines are impacted, and 3 of the maxillary incisors are resorbed.
Figure 8.7 After extraction of primary canines (arrows point to the extracted primary canines). A favourable change in eruptive pathway was seen, leading to uneventful eruption.
Figure 8.8 Severe space deficiency in the maxilla and ectopic position of the two maxillary canines (a). It is not possible to diagnose any root resorption on the right lateral incisor (white arrow). In (b), the CT slice shows severe root resorption on both the lateral incisors.
Figure 8.9 Maxillary right canine in a normal eruption and position. The left canine in ectopic position palatally displaced with a widened follicle (white arrow).
Figure 8.10 In (a), a case with a slight resorption of the maxillary left central incisor root. Orthodontic traction (white arrow) of the left canine away from the incisor root after surgical open exposure. In (b), with aid of a sectional arch, the canine is moved away from the incisor root after surgical closed exposure.
Figure 8.11 A peg-shaped mesiodens (black arrow) and an impacted canine (blue arrow).
Figure 8.12 In cases with two mesiodentes (black arrows), the crowns are most often positioned in different directions. About 25% of the patients with mesiodens have two mesiodentes.

To the right, a maxillary first premolar in a 12-year-old patient represents the area A in the Figure to the left. Root surface (R) and remaining pyknotic cell nuclei in hyalinised tissue (P). Direct bone resorption with osteoclasts (D).
Figure 9.6 Photomicrograph of the hyalinised zone (H) between alveolar bone (B) and root surface of the tooth (T). Alveolar bone resorption occurs from marrow spaces (blue arrow) and small arrows indicate thin line of bone between the resorbed bone and hyaline tissue. Small amount of root resorption (green arrow) at the border of the hyaline zone (adapted from Brudvik and Rygh, 1993).

Cementum (C), dentin (D) and hyalinised zone (H). To the left (a), neighbouring section with repair of peripheral parts of resorption lacunae by deposition cementum (thin arrows). In the middle (b), the length of the hyalinised zone (between the two open arrows) after 3 days of compression. To the right (c), the length of root resorption (between the two open arrows) after 21 days of tooth movement. Note the regular arrangement of the PDL cells and fibres in the peripheral part of the resorption lacunae (medium arrows). In the central part of resorption area (small open arrow), no trace of fibres is connected with the root surface. The small black arrows show the demarcation line between old bone (B) and new bond (b) in crest area (adapted from Brudvik and Rygh, 1995).

The drawing to the left (a), shows the effect observed during the initial stage of a continuous bodily movement. Hyalinised tissue/area (A) and slight compression (B), because of the initial tipping of the tooth. In the Figure in the middle (b), after the initial phase, a gradual upright positioning of the tooth caused increased bone resorption on the pressure side (A) and bone deposition along the stretched fibre bundles (B). The photomicrograph to the right (c), shows a bodily movement, with the blue arrow showing the tooth movement direction of a premolar in a dog during a period of 6 months. New bone layers on the tension side with osteoblasts (O) and small root resorption on the pressure side (R).
Figure 9.15 Experimental rotation of a maxillary second incisor in a dog. Formation of two pressure and tension sides. Demarcation line between old and new bone layers (B) and pressure side with root resorption (R).
Figure 9.16 To the left (a), arrangement of fibre bundles during and after extrusion of a maxillary central incisor. New bone layers at the alveolar fundus (B). To the right (b), relaxation of the free gingival fibres during intrusion. Bone spicules laid down according to the direction of the fibre tension (A) and relaxed supra-alveolar tissue (B).
Chapter 10: Tissue response to orthopaedic forces
Figure 10.1 To the left, normal occlusion with bilateral normal position of the mandible condyle in the fossae. To the right, a unilateral left posterior crossbite has resulted in changed condylar position in the glenoid fossae.
Figure 10.2 In (a), deviation of the chin to the posterior crossbite side (red arrow), resulting in a facial asymmetry of the young girl. In (b), the unilateral crossbite (red arrow indicates deviation to the right side). In (c), a young adult with an untreated unilateral right-sided posterior crossbite. Deviation of the chin to the right (red arrow).
Figure 10.3 Photomicrographs from the human intermaxillary suture. To the left (a), in young ages the collagen fibres perpendicular to the bony surface. In the middle (b), the thickness and density of fibres have increased with age. To the right (c), after 14 years of age, a stage to bony obliteration.
Figure 10.4 To the left (a), a rapid maxillary appliance has been inserted to expand the intermaxillary suture, no expansion yet started. In the middle (b), after 21 days of expansion and a clearly widened suture. To the right (c), deposition of bone in the widened suture to allow the suture to recover.
Chapter 11: Possible adverse tissue reactions
Figure 11.1 In (a), general WSLs after 1.5 years of treatment with fixed appliance, and in (b), another patient showing normal enamel conditions after fixed appliance therapy.
Figure 11.2 The green arrow pointing to a superficial resorption defect of the root and the defect rather close to the hyalinised zone (H). The alveolar bone (B) and root surface of the tooth (T).
Figure 11.3 In (a), maxillary right central and lateral incisor before orthodontic treatment, and in (b), the same teeth after treatment and with minor (2–3 mm) apical root resorptions (white arrows).
Figure 11.4 In (a), a patient with fixed appliance showing general gingival inflammation and bad oral hygiene. In (b), another patient showing how the oral hygiene should appear when treatment with fixed appliance is performed.
Figure 11.5 In (a), before treatment of crowding, and in (b), the same patient after treatment (proclination of mandibular incisors) and a small gingival recession has occurred (blue arrow).
Figure 11.6 The apex of the maxillary left central incisor has been displaced through the cortical bone (arrows), because of too much torqueing movement.
Figure 11.7 In (a), bitewing radiograph showing the marginal bone level before orthodontic treatment. In (b), after 2 years of treatment with a fixed appliance using bands on first molars. The white arrows indicate a loss of marginal bone of approximately 0.1 to 0.3 mm on the mesial and distal surface of the maxillary right molar.
Figure 11.8 Pronounced oedema and erythema of the lips in a nickel-sensitive patient treated with fixed appliance of stainless steel.
Figure 11.9 In (a), a nickel-sensitive patient using a plastic encased outer bow of a headgear. In (b), another nickel-sensitive patient bonded with brackets made of ceramics and in whom bands of titanium and a titanium molybdenum arch wire have been inserted.
Chapter 12: Retention and post-retention outcome
Figure 12.1 A retainer bonded to all maxillary canines and incisors (a). In (b), the maxillary retainer is bonded to the four incisors. In (c), a canine-to-canine is inserted and bonded to the mandibular canines only, while in (d), the retainer is bonded to both mandibular canines and all incisors.
Figure 12.2 The Jensen retainer with its typical labial arch wire for stabilization of the maxillary incisors (a), and in (b), the occlusal view of the retainer.
Figure 12.3 The Essix retainer is a vacuum-formed stent that is entirely made of transparent plastic that fits over all or mostly all teeth in the jaw (a), and the occlusal view of the retainer (b).
Figure 12.4 In (a), before treatment, and in (b), after treatment. In (c), relapse of one of the mandibular incisors.
Figure 12.5 In (a), a male 16 years of age with Class I occlusion, acceptable and small crowding of mandibular incisors, congenitally missing 3rd molars and no treatment needed. In (b), the same subject at 31 years of age and still Class I occlusion but now high demand for orthodontic treatment because of severe crowded mandibular incisors. Note also the diminished intercanine width of approximately 2 mm that have arisen between 16 and 31 years of age (black line versus blue line).
