    i got 4 teeth missing and i was told to use elastics with a round wire while i have still some unresolved alignment and spacing issues. i dont remember we've ever used rectangular ones before. my whole body crunched in stress, so many problems showed up, needed a root canal for one teeth and we gave up on elastics. i've experienced narrow skewed arch, too much closed space for the missing incisor with tmj problems and with all that at least 7 seemingly unrelated physical problems from postural, neurological to dermatological ones and of course its psychological traumatic effects. i needed to learn dental stuff instead of my profession, gave a break to my job 2 years ago, and still no clear sight ahead.
    this treatment is not a joke but somehow some orthodontists are not aware of the consequences of what they are doing. i wish every ortho would be a clear communicator like you. thanks for the videos, these explanations has given me clear understanding of its technicality.
    if you have any suggestions, i'd also be appreciated.

    This is super helpful, thank you! My orthodontist couldn't really explain anything he did, and i couldn't live not knowing how it all works. Im already on retainers, i didn't have to wear elastics and it took about a year and a half, thankfully. Also before braces i wore something that looked like a plastic retainer but it moved my teeth away from each other and created gaps between them to uncrowd. I never heard of that thing before.

    Very nicely explained. Please advise the 0.17 x 0.25 Niti wires are round or rectangular and the detailing wire 0.16 x 0.22 SS is round or rectangular. Please advise the duration of wear for space closing and detailing wire

    • @likeabossproductions1254
      @likeabossproductions1254  ปีที่แล้ว

      Both of those wires are rectangular, thus the two numbers to describe the wire’s dimensions. Those wires are used for as long as you need to get all the spaces closed and all the detailing done. Usually that’s about 6 months each but it can vary depending on the needs of the patient.

I had braces put on two weeks ago,. The ortho said they can straighten these monsters out and ready me for some nicely fitting partial or if i can afford it some implants/bridges. 18 months to go to see if it'll work.

    When I started I asked my ortho how long he believed I needed braces for and he was just like “Yes”. It will take more than two years. Like what?
    That said I guess the phases can take a different amount of time depending on your condition. I had impacted Canines. I spent 8 months wearing an appliance just to make space for the tooth to come in. Then it has been little over a year getting the tooth down into the arch and It just now got to a point where they can put a bracket on. Lol thought I was getting close and now I find out I’m not even done with phase one and that’s not even the longest part lol fml.

    Durong tha Alignment phase, using the Niti with memory, then it would make someones arch just like the wire ? I see some people with straight teeth but the arch is still narrow. thx for the details in thia video

    • @likeabossproductions1254
      @likeabossproductions1254  17 วันที่ผ่านมา

      The wire aligns the teeth, but the width of the arch also has to do with the width of the maxilla itself. An expander can widen the maxilla, but the width of the maxilla needs to match the width of the mandible for the bite to fit together correctly.

  • @tunguyenthithanh7628
    @tunguyenthithanh7628 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Thank you for sharing.Why you use Ni Ti for closing spaces not SS? If you make loops to close space.

    • @likeabossproductions1254
      @likeabossproductions1254  2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Great question!
      When closing spaces you need a wire that is rigid enough to stay straight while the spaces are closing. Traditionally this is done on a SS wire when closing space with sliding mechanics (elastic chain or closing springs to make the braces slide along the wire) because SS is naturally more rigid than NiTi. However, if your NiTi wire is thick enough (.017" x .025", for example) it should be rigid enough to stay straight while closing spaces with sliding mechanics as long as you keep your closing forces relatively light. We use NiTi closing coil springs for light, continuous force and we haven't had any trouble using NiTi wires with that system.
      However, when closing space with closing loops you would need a wire material that allows you to bend closing loops into the wire (SS or TMA).

    • @ryanwood6752

      I was always taught that it would but my partner and I have been closing spaces with power chain and sentiloy springs on 17x25 Niti wires for the last 4 years with little to no roller coaster effect. Closing spaces on stainless steel wires is the more traditional way to do it, though, and does have less risk of getting roller coaster effect (assuming you're using the same size wire in SS vs NiTi).

      I would recommend following the recommendation of your orthodontist because they know what’s going on in your particular situation. Usually one elastic on each side, if worn 24 hours per day, will be sufficient to correct the occlusion. If you want to wear two elastic, I would check with your orthodontist before doing so.

    • @likeabossproductions1254
      @likeabossproductions1254  ปีที่แล้ว

      Most orthodontists choose an arch shape they like and treat everyone with those wires. Some orthodontists keep several arch shapes on hand and use the arch shape that most closely matches the patient’s original arch shape. They feel that this helps with retention of the final result. The downside is that you have to maintain a much larger inventory of arch wires which is why most orthodontists just choose a shape they like and use that for everyone, justifying it with the knowledge that everyone will need lifetime retention to keep the teeth straight anyway so why not make their arch shape more “ideal”. 🤷‍♂️

    And what do you do if your patient has a nickel allergy? I have a bad nickel allergy and a few orthodontists at consults have wanted to try a metal containing it anyway. I'm also type 1 diabetic, only one cared enough to ask if my a1c was good or not.

    • @likeabossproductions1254
      @likeabossproductions1254  2 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      If you think you might be allergic to the braces your orthodontist could bond one to a tooth and check you later that day or the next day. If you're allergic you'd know within that time because the part of the cheek/lip touching the brace would have a noticeable allergic reaction.
      That said, in 13 years of doing orthodontics I've only ever seen one person who was allergic to the braces and they knew within 1 hour and there was no mistaking it. The inside of their cheeks were very red and swollen. Lots of people have nickel allergies but it's extremely rare to have an allergic reaction to the metal in braces.

    How to manage a lateral which is rounded at the bottom?

    • @likeabossproductions1254

      The Ortho could either remove some tooth structure to flatten the edge or the dentist could add some composite to flatten the edge. The dentist could also do a porcelain veneer to change the size and shape of the tooth. You could also leave the rounded edge of its appearance doesn't bother you.

    Any other particular role of rectangle niti? Like my senior says it expands the arch??

    • @likeabossproductions1254
      @likeabossproductions1254  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      If the patient's arch is narrower than the arch form of the wire, rectangular NiTi and/or rectangular SS wires can expand the arch to match the size and shape of the arch form of the wire. It seems like most of that "expansion" though is dental tipping rather than skeletal expansion like you'd get from an expander.

    Hello. My incisors on my lower jaw are protruded. Is it really ok to use Stainless steel wire? Ive beem wearing my braces using SS in my lower teeth, but I haven't notice any changes. Incisors are still protruded.

      As crowded teeth align they have to go somewhere and where they go is forward onto a larger arc so that they can be lined up. The only way to tip them back is to either pull them back using extra-oral anchorage (like with a headgear that pulls from the back of the head or neck) or, more commonly, by extracting certain teeth and closing that space. As the space closes, the protruded teeth can move backward into those extraction spaces. A small amount of backward movement/tipping can also be achieved by inter proximal reduction (IPR), which is selective removal of tooth enamel between the teeth with an abrasive disc then closing those small spaces to bring the teeth back. You get less tip back than with extractions but it’s better than nothing.
      If you’re concerned about the position of your teeth you should definitely bring this up to your orthodontist so he/she can review the options available to you to fix it. 👍

    which wire is used to close first premolar gap?

    • @likeabossproductions1254
      @likeabossproductions1254  ปีที่แล้ว

      Most orthodontists use a stainless steel wire that is .016”x.022” or larger. We will often close spaces using a .017”x.025” NiTi wire.

    At..6:54 is that you said the round niti wire will make the tooth to go to front?..im not quite understand

    • @likeabossproductions1254
      @likeabossproductions1254  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      I was explaining that the round NiTi wire will correct the rotation and height of the tooth but cannot correct the torque (what I show with my hands at 7:00). A rectangular wire that's large enough to fill the bracket slot is needed to correct the torque.

    Hello doc! What ortho book will u recommend?

    • @likeabossproductions1254
      @likeabossproductions1254  ปีที่แล้ว

      The most widely used textbook for Ortho is Contemporary Orthodontics by Profitt. Excellent book. It’s not even close to a replacement for attending an orthodontic residency program after dental school, though, so please keep that in mind when deciding if you’re going to start doing Ortho cases in your dental practice. It’s very easy to get in over your head if you’re not extremely careful. 👍
