Abstract

Minor orthodontic treatment using a thin wire with high elasticity can shorten the treatment period and reduce the load on the anchorage by the application of light force. Since it can be applied immediately without a dental laboratory procedure and does not require the patient's cooperation, it can be clinically useful. The cases reported here have led to positive results in short periods of treatment, using only a segmented straight 0.012 inch NiTi wire and flowable resin to address various locations within the oral cavity, such as the anterior teeth, premolars, and molars.

고탄성의 가는 강선을 이용한 부분교정은 약한 힘의 적용으로 고정원에 대한 부담을 줄이면서 치료기간을 단축시킬 수 있다. 기공실 과정 없이 즉시 적용이 가능하고 환자의 협조를 필요로 하지 않기 때문에 임상적으로 유용하게 사용될 수 있다. 본 증례들은 직선형의 0.012 인치 NiTi 분절 강선과 유동성 레진만을 이용하여 전치, 소구치, 대구치 등 구강 내 다양한 위치에 존재하는 문제들에 적용하여 단기간에 양호한 결과를 얻었기에 보고하는 바이다.
