Abstract:
Objective:To evaluate the influence of minimally invasive corticotomy on the treatment time and molar anchorage of adult orthodontic extraction cases.Methods:60 adult cases of Angle Class Ⅰ crowding malocclusion were devided into 3 groups (n =20) and treated by orthodontic treatment wtih minimally invasive corticotomy(group A),orthodontic treatment with classic modified corticotomy(group B) and routine orthodontic treatment (group C) respectively.Time needed for leveling and alignment,space closure,delicate adjustment,total treatment time and mesial sagittal antedisplacement of first molar anchorage were compared among the 3 groups.Results:Time needed for leveling and alignment of orthodontic treatment of group A,B and C was (5.64 ± 2.57),(4.91 ± 3.31) and (8.87 ± 3.75) months respectively(C vs A or B,P < 0.01).Time needed for space closure of group A,B and C was (6.84 ± 2.69),(6.64 ± 3.87) and (8.63 ± 3.29) months respectively(C vs A or B,P <0.01).Time needed for delicate adjustment showed no significant difference among the 3 groups(P > 0.05).Total treatment time of group A,B and C was (16.07 ± 6.21),(15.77 ± 5.11)and (21.94 ± 5.74) months respectively (C vs A or B,P < 0.01).There was on statistical difference of mesial sagittal antedisplacement of first molar anchorage among the 3 groups.Conclusion:Minimally invasive corticotomy can shorten the orthodontic treatment time,but can not decrease the retraction resistance of the anterior teeth.
