Transverse assessment with a CBCT, is it the answer? 5 MINUTE SUMMARY
Transverse assessment with a CBCT, is it the answer? 5 MINUTE SUMMARY
Join me for a look at the use of CBCT in the diagnoses of a transverse discrepancy, and if it offers the solution to the debated topic. This podcast is based on a lecture by Chun Hsi Chung at this year’s AAO. The conventional methods of assessment,Curve of Wilson and WALA ridge line, are reviewed through the lens of a CBCT, as well as how to use a CBCT to assess the maxilla and mandible, which although revealed an ideal measurement, may not be telling the full story.

What Does the American Academy of Dental Sleep Medicine's Consensus Statement Say About RME and Mandibular Advancement for treating POSA ? SNIPPET
Full podcast episode | Can Orthodontics Treat Paediatric Obstructive Sleep Apnoea? 👉 @farooqorthodontist
“To conclude with I wanted to describe to you the American Academy of Dental Sleep Medicine's consensus statement from this year And it looks at the treatment modalities in orthodontics starting off with expansion There was no consensus whether it could either prevent or be management for obstructive sleep apnea There's difference of opinions There is evidence that's there Interestingly there isn't enough evidence to state if it could be a cure for it When it came to mandibular advancement there's even less information and it's unclear if it can even carry out preventative measures be involved with management and indeed be curative”

Why is Obstructive Paediatric Sleep Apnoea Important? SNIPPET
Full podcast episode | Can Orthodontics Treat Paediatric Obstructive Sleep Apnoea? 👉 @farooqorthodontist
“So why is this so important to the growing patient Well it's down to the slow sleep wave constructive phase during sleep where growth hormones are essentially secreted glial cells within the brain are restored and it helps the patient to grow This is seen most evidently in the consequences to patients with pediatric obstructive sleep apnea There are delays in development growth There's also poor academic performance indicating the cognitive effects that take place Aggressive behavior are part of the multitude of effects of pediatric obstructive sleep apnea”

What is the posterior Bolton’s Discrepancy SNIPPET
Full episode - Posterior Bolton’s Discrepancy. New Analysis To Solve Old Problems 👉 @farooqorthodontist
What is the posterior Bolton's discrepancy Well the formula is relatively simple It's the addition of the mandibular first and second premolars and the first molar divided by the maxillary first second premolars and first molar Now going back and looking at the original data from Wayne Bolton's classic study the outcome comes at a hundred and five point three percent

Posterior Bolton’s Discrepancy. New Analysis To Solve Old Problems 5 MINUTE SUMMARY
Join me for a summary looking at The Posterior Bolton Discrepancy, a new take on the classic Bolton discrepancy. Wayne Bolton’s analysis has been critically appraised and the outcome from Patrick Foley and his team has been the formation of the posterior Bolton analysis, a new perspective on an established tool in orthodontics which seeks to give better insight into the location of tooth size discrepancies. He has also explored through his research the effects of premolar extractions and the likely outcomes of compromised occlusal outcomes, and where we should expect to see it within the posterior segment..

What are my thoughts on the features of Lightforce? SNIPPET
.
Full podcast episode | What is Lightforce? Will it change orthodontics? 👉 @farooqorthodontist
.
“So what are my thoughts on Lightforce It's exciting to see this digital integration into labial conventional appliances CAD-CAM technology is not new to orthodontics but has so far been really the preserve of clear alignotherapy and customised lingual appliances It's great to see these ideas and concepts being brought into conventional labial fixed appliances The items that have been described with Lightforce are not necessarily unique to that system For example the idea of offsetting bracket positioning that has been established in lingual appliances But it can be often difficult to get the brackets into the ideal place Digital planning and visualisation is part and parcel of how clear align therapy works And it was actually there with the inception of clear aligners There's also this idea of customisation At what point do we then look elsewhere bracket is one component but we've still got to look at the archwise as well And I tried to find Lightforce's recommended archwise sequence and couldn't find it And that is a significant part of the customisation of force delivery”

What are 3D printed brackets - Lightforce? SNIPPET
Full podcast episode | What is Lightforce? Will it change orthodontics? 👉 @farooqorthodontist
“What is Lightforce, well it is a printed bracket using digital planning and digital manufacturing The bracket itself is made from a ceramic polycrystalline and it's a labial fixed appliance. So how does it work it entails using a digital planning software which is Lightforce's LightPlan which gives a visualisation of the outcome of the tooth movement The tooth position can be altered as well as a bracket position And at the outcome an individualised prescription is made for each individual tooth

Why does tooth movement-related bone loss not necessarily cause gingival recession? SNIPPET
Full podcast episode | What Happens To Adults When We Expand With Aligners? Greg Huang 👉 @farooqorthodontist
“The next question that Greg Wangs posed was does bone loss result in gingival recession The presumption is that the answer should be yes That's not what Greg found He cited an example a patient having 3 millimetres of bone loss occurring according to the CBCT but actually far less gingival recession Now when it came to looking at previous studies what he found was that Kim's study from 2024 showed significant palatal bone loss on patients having retraction of their incisors by the use of mini screws Now when these patients were followed up long term in retention it was found the palatal bone actually recovered And this really starts to conflict with the idea that bone is needed to maintain the gingiva And also does that mean we are getting new bone formation or is this a different type of bony remodelling occurring What Greg did state was how he thinks this happens but it needs further And although the alveolar bone may disappear the periodontal ligaments and the periosteum are still present and they both have osteogenic potential So if tension does occur between periodontal ligaments and the periosteum new bone formation may well occur This may well explain why bone loss itself doesn't necessarily correlate to recession occurring as well”

Expansion with aligners, can it cause bone loss? SNIPPET
Full podcast episode | What Happens To Adults When We Expand With Aligners? Greg Huang 👉 @farooqorthodontist
“What was the bone loss that they found Well interestingly enough when they expanded in the maxilla there was no real difference between both the expansion and the non-expansion aligner groups And this was found to be minimal bone loss across both It was the mandibular arch where significant differences were found Now in the expansion group there was 1 millimetres of mandibular bone loss across the central and sides region When it came to looking at other areas of the arch there was a one point four millimetres of bone loss across the premolar region What about movements that took place to the incisors There was very little change for the inclination of the maxillary incisors Again the mandible seems to be where significant changes happen There was significant tipping of those lower incisors”
