RESTORATION OF POSTERIOR EDENTULOUS SPACES AFTER MAXILLARY MOLAR INTRUSION WITH FIXED APPLIANCES (CASE REPORT)
Journal Title: Journal of International Dental and Medical Research - Year 2010, Vol 3, Issue 2
Abstract
This case report includes the mini screw supported intrusion of the extruded teeth due to the absence of its antagonist and fixed prosthetic rehabilitation supported with osseointegrated implants. Four mini-screws with 2 mm diameter and 10 mm length were placed in buccal and palatal regions of extruded molars in both left and right sides. The 4 mm intrusion was achieved with Ni-Ti closed spring and elastomeric chain in each side. After the intrusions of the extruded antagonist molars, dental implants were placed in edentulous areas. After 3 months of healing period, fixed prosthetic restorations were made. As the benefit of orthodontic intrusion of extruded molars, no endodontic treatment was needed in order to gain enough vertical space for prosthetic restoration of antagonist edentulous area and the masticatory function was successfully given to the patient.
