Abstract

Lingual orthodontic treatment is indicated for adults who do not want appliance show. Considering the limitation of tissue response in adults, precision tooth movement without round-tripping is crucial. Moreover, in order to camouflage underlying skeletal discrepancies, translation-type tooth movement rather than tipping is essential. For those, adequate segmentation of the dental arch and specific goal-oriented movement of each segment can be helpful. Since maxillary palatal area is characterized by various insertion sites for the miniscrews, combination of the miniscrew position and various lever arms for preliminary segmental movement effectively eliminates the round-tripping, providing a reliable lingual treatment protocol in adults with periodontal complication or temporomandibular joint resorption. A typical inconsistent movement such as total arch displacement is also attainable. The biomechanical backgrounds and applications are explained and demonstrated.
