Temporary anchorage devices (TADs) offer a practical way to provide anchorage for various types of tooth movement. To aid in the proper placement of TADs and to facilitate orthodontic diagnosis and treatment planning, treatment simulation, and assessment of skeletal and dental changes, cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) is an invaluable tool. In this presentation, TADs and novel appliances are used to treat challenging cases to control vertical and sagittal dimensions. In this lecture, various challenging cases will be presented where TADs were used, and treatment outcomes will be discussed using pre- and post-treatment records including CBCT.
- Discuss clinical applications and biomechanical considerations of TADs.
2. Describe vertical and sagittal correction with TADs.
3. Evaluate pre-treatment and post-treatment superimposed CBCT images after TADs have been applied.
