Abstract

This study aimed to evaluate the torque effectiveness of different attachment types and power ridges used in clear aligner therapy (CAT) on the upper lateral incisors. A typodont model simulating oral conditions was developed. Two hundred lateral incisor samples were divided into five groups based on attachment types and clear aligner modifications: no attachments (NA), horizontal ellipsoid attachment (HEA), vertical ellipsoid attachment (VEA), buccal power ridge (BPR), and buccal and palatal power ridge (BPPR). Subsequently, a 5° palatal torque moment was applied to the lateral incisors. In-house clear aligners were inserted, and 3D scanning was performed after each aligner step. Post-treatment 3D models were compared with pre-treatment models. The lateral incisors were assessed for torque, tipping, and rotational movements. The HEA group (41.6%) and the BPPR group (40.8%) showed significantly higher torque effectiveness than the NA group (20%) when 5° of torque was delivered. The planned movement was approximated when 1° and 2° of torque were applied in the NA group (114% and 98%, respectively). The NA and BPR groups showed the highest loss of anchorage. When more than 3° of torque was applied, HEA and BPPR were more effective than NA in achieving the CAT’s planned torque of the upper lateral incisors, although with an efficacy rate of approximately 40%. It is challenging to achieve torque movement using CAT. When less than 3° of torque was required, additional mechanics were not necessary. BPPR and HEA showed higher effectiveness when 5° of torque was applied. The efficacy of BPR was similar to that of NA.

内部透明矫形器治疗机械对牙根扭矩的功效:体外研究
这项研究旨在评估透明矫治器疗法(CAT)中使用的不同附着类型和动力脊对上侧切牙的扭力效果。 研究人员制作了一个模拟口腔状况的正畸模型。两百颗侧切牙样本根据附着类型和透明矫治器的改良分为五组:无附着(NA)、水平椭圆附着(HEA)、垂直椭圆附着(VEA)、颊动力脊(BPR)和颊腭动力脊(BPPR)。随后,在侧切牙上施加 5° 的腭力矩。插入内部透明矫治器,并在每个矫治器步骤后进行三维扫描。将治疗后的三维模型与治疗前的模型进行比较。对侧切牙的扭矩、倾斜和旋转运动进行评估。 当施加5°的扭力时,HEA组(41.6%)和BPPR组(40.8%)的扭力效果明显高于NA组(20%)。在 NA 组中,当施加 1° 和 2° 扭矩时,计划动作的逼近率分别为 114% 和 98%。NA 组和 BPR 组的锚定损失最大。 当施加超过 3° 的扭力时,HEA 和 BPPR 比 NA 更能有效地达到 CAT 计划的上侧切牙扭力,但有效率约为 40%。 使用 CAT 实现扭矩移动具有挑战性。 当需要的扭力小于 3° 时,不需要额外的机械装置。 当施加 5° 扭矩时,BPPR 和 HEA 显示出更高的有效性。 BPR 的效果与 NA 相似。
