Loss of posterior bite support might cause unstable occlusal relationship and when the mandible slides forward in the centric or habitual occlusion, excessive load is applied to the anterior region followed by causing the occlusal plane to collapse or leading to a decrease in occlusal vertical dimension. In addition, disorder of temporomandibular joint function may occur. The inter-dental arch discrepancy causes a mismatch in the vertical and horizontal overlap of the anterior and posterior regions. The deep bite in the anterior region and the scissor bite in the posterior region cause unstable occlusal contact and insufficient occlusal contact area. This report was to rehabilitate a patient with above-mentioned complex problems. Physiologic adaptation to increased vertical dimension and new occlusal plane were evaluated using provisional prostheses, and definitive prostheses was fabricated using cross-mounting technique. Stable occlusion, harmonious teeth overlap and adequate occlusal plane were established, so functionally and aesthetically satisfactory results are obtained.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the displacement and pattern of stress distribution on periodontal ligaments of maxillary first and second molar, and on orthodontic mini-implant (OMI) surface, according to three different insertion angles to the bone surface of OMI using Dragon helix appliance, which is a newly introduced scissors-bite correcting appliance. OMI were placed between second premolar and first molar with three different insertion angles (45, 60, 90 degrees). Displacement and maximum stress distribution area (MSDA) were analyzed by finite element analysis. When the insertion angle to the alveolar bone surface was 90 degrees, maxillary first and second molar both exhibited MSDA at the palatal root apex. Maxillary first molar did not show any significant displacement, while the second molar exhibited intrusive and palatal displacement. On the OMI, as the insertion angle decreased, the MSDA shifted towards the tip, and the amount of displacement had increased. When the OMI was inserted at a 90 degree angle, anchor loss was minimized and scissors-bite correcting effect was maximized.

This clinical report describes an orthodontic-prosthodontic interdisciplinary treatment for a patient with multiple missing teeth and unilateral scissors bite. A 47-year-old female presented with multiple missing posterior teeth, anterior large overjet, deep bite, and posterior scissors bite on the right premolar area. Periodontal therapy was performed and followed by orthodontic treatment. The maxillary anterior teeth were initially aligned, then two implants were placed for the left mandibular molars to increase occlusal vertical dimension. The scissors bite between the right maxillary and mandibular premolars were corrected using the miniscrews as an anchorage. Other implants were placed for the right maxillary and mandibular molars after the occlusal planes and occlusal relationship were harmonized. The patient adapted well to altered vertical dimension without any specific problems including peri-implant marginal bone loss. Interdisciplinary approach resolve the complex orthodontic-prosthodontic problems and concluded in successful results.

Objective: The purpose of this study was to compare the difference in three dimensional tooth movement using three different wire sizes($0.018{\times}0.025-in,\;0.016{\times}0.022-in$ 0.016-in) on a NiTi scissors-bite corrector. Methods: Computed tomography(CT) images of the experimental model before and after tooth movement were taken and reconstructed into three dimensional models for superimposition. The direction and the amount of tooth movement were measured and analyzed statistically. Results: The lingual and intrusive movements of the crown of the maxillary second molar were increased as the size of the NiTi wire increased. The roots of the maxillary second metals moved buccally except for the 0.016-in group. The intrusive movement of the roots of the maxillary second molars was increased as the size of the NiTi wire increased. Due to the use of orthodontic mini-implants, anchorage loss was under 0.2 mm on average. Conclusions: The $0.018{\times}0.025-in$ NiTi wire was most effective in lingual and intrusive movement of the maxillary second molar which was in scissors-bite position. Indirect skeletal anchorage with a single orthodontic mini-implant was rigid enough to prevent anchorage loss.
