Anchorage in orthodontics – a review of literature
Journal Title: Forum Ortodontyczne - Year 2014, Vol 10, Issue 4
Abstract
According to the Newton’s third law of motion for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. This law also applies in orthodontics and is a basis of anchorage. It is a subject discussed in many studies and articles and associated with various theories. Some of them have been clinically proven, whereas others are still a subject of further studies. [b]Aim of the work[/b]. The work aims to present a subject of anchorage and a review of literature regarding current approaches to this problem. [b]Material and methods[/b]. A review of the literature from the years 1988– 2014 was conducted with the help of the PubMed database and the following key words: anchorage, classification, sources of anchorage, skeletal anchorage, anchorage loss. The studies were supplemented with papers published by Polish and foreign authors regarding this field. [b]Results[/b]. 34 positions were selected and analysed. [b]Conclusions[/b]. Anchorage requirements have to be set individually for each patient. There are many methods to reinforce anchorage that are used under clinical conditions; however, some of them have not been sufficiently scientifically proven. The issue of anchorage, widely discussed in the literature, still requires further studies, and clear guidelines helping practitioners select a treatment regimen have yet to be formulated.
