Osseointegration and Dental Implants
Osseointegration and Dental Implants offers a comprehensive guide to the state of the art of implant dentistry. Based around the proceedings of the Toronto Osseointegration Conference Revisited, it gathers together information on all aspects of implant dentistry and osseointegration, from basic scientific background, such as the biology of osseointegration and the biomechanics of implant surface design, to clinical relevance, such as treatment planning, loading protocols, and patient rehabilitation. This unique book shows implant dentistry as it is today, in all its diverse clinical applications, and provides an expert discussion of what we know, what we think we know, and what we need to find out.

Aquaform technique

Aquaform technique

To achieve a perfect fit in transpalatais bars, bows and lingual palatal expansion devices are required to transfer models with 100% accuracy. When the doublet do not fit, orthodontists and technicians are blaming each other. The problem is always the transfer of the band for the model. Aquaform solve this problem easily and consistently.
Many orthodontists simply put the bands on molars of alginate impression. Other place wax or wire in alginate to maintain the position of the band. These techniques are wrong, because the bands often move when the printing is passed to the gypsum. An excellent technique used to transfer previously employed a combination of views. But while this idea was good, the combination was often fragile and fractured, preventing the model.
Replace this impression by the techniques of Aquaform fragile, and a reference material with higher risk of fracture zero. Step 7 shows the perfect combination of band x Aquaform, where the alginate impression is accurate and no additional retention method is used

Instructions for use:
1. Set well with the bands already welded tubes

2. Aquaform Place in hot water (not boiling,
about 80 ? C) for 20 seconds. Remove and crush it with the
fingers until the color is uniform

3. Press the Aquaform on the tube, the occlusal surface,
about the band, lingual surface. Use jet of air to cool

4. Mold with alginate.

5. Remove the type of alginate. The Aquaform remain
the bands in the teeth of the patient

6. The bands covered by Aquaform are easily removed
teeth as a single unit

7. The bands covered by Aquaform are settled with
accuracy in the model of alginate without restraint
Additional

8. From the model made the model of alginate
transfer

9. Put the type of transfer with the bands
covered with Aquaform in a bowl with 2.5 cm of
very hot water for 20 seconds. Remove from Aquaform
bands

10. The Aquaform was removed from the bands. The bands are
perfectly positioned in the model of transfer

11. Mount and / or solder your support (transpalatal bar) in
transferência.a model

12. The bar fits perfectly in the teeth.

Hybrid Orthodontic Treatment System (HOTS)

Hybrid Orthodontic Treatment System
HOTS
T. Ikegami DDS, MS Kumamoto, Japan

Hybrid Orthodontic Treatment System (HOTS) has been developed in the search of the most efficient and reliable treatment system by combining the following 3 orthodontic devices or methods which were developed independently with different treatment concepts.

1. Micro Implant Anchorage (MIA)
2. Combination wire
3. Multi-loop Edgewise Arch-wire (MEAW)

The most important feature of this system, compared with the conventional en-masse retraction in which 6 anteriors are retracted together, is that in this technique the canines are retracted along the corner curve of the canine area independently from the other 4 incisors. These 6 anteriors, however, are still retracted simultaneously. In this way, the canines can travel along the alveolar trough between the cortical bones. On the other hand, with the conventional en masse movement, canines may easily hit the lingual cortical bone as it is retracted straight backwards. Thus the distal movement of the 6 anteriors may not be as smooth as with the HOTS thereby causing more damage to the anterior teeth as well as to the lingual alveolar bone, which will result in extended treatment time.

HOTS Treatment Procedure

Step1. Extraction of bicuspids and insertion of MIA in one visit
Step2. Leveling with the .0155 or .0175 multi-stranded wire and the .016 Ti-Ni wire with “lace-back” retraction of the canines followed by final alignment with .016 x .022 Ti-Ni wire
Step3. Simultaneous retraction of canines, as well as 4 incisors, with combination (.017x.025 rectangular and .016 round) wire
Step4. Finalization with the MEAW (.016 x .022 Stainless steel wire)

Flow of HOTS
