Here's a deeper look into how TADs are utilized for anchorage reinforcement:
1. Absolute Anchorage:
TADs provide absolute anchorage, meaning they offer stable support without relying on adjacent teeth. This is especially useful in cases where tooth movement needs to be isolated or resisted.
2. Prevention of Unwanted Tooth Movement:
In complex orthodontic cases, certain teeth may need to remain stationary to serve as anchors while other teeth are moved. TADs help prevent unwanted tooth movement during this process.
3. Management of Extraction Cases:
In cases where teeth have been extracted, TADs can help maintain anchorage and prevent mesial drift of neighboring teeth, facilitating space closure and maintaining dental arch integrity.
4. Treatment of Severe Malocclusions:
In Class II or Class III malocclusions, where significant tooth movement is required, TADs provide additional anchorage support to facilitate desired tooth movements without compromising overall treatment goals.
5. Orthodontic Distalization:
TADs aid in distalizing molars, moving them backward in the dental arch to correct Class II malocclusions. This is particularly beneficial when the molars need to be moved distally without causing mesial movement of other teeth.
