Anterior crossbites can cause a ? is left untreated
|
Tmj disturbance
|
|
etiology of anterior crossbites
|
skeletal dysplasia
abnormal dental relations functional interferences combo of all of the above |
|
arch usually the problem in primary anterior crossbite
|
maxilla
|
|
Popsicle stick used to treat anterior crossbite
|
tongue blade
|
|
Poor patient compliance
Inexpensive Requires no appliance to wear |
tongue blade
|
|
Have them bite on the stick until the tissue blanches and it will push the tooth. They do this for a few days and their teeth get sore so they won’t bit on it anymore because it hurts
|
tongue blade
|
|

Rapid palatal expander (jack screw)
Porter "W" appliance 4Quadhelix |
3 appliances to treat a Posterior crossbite with a midline shift
|
|
rapid palatal expander:
There is a hole in which you place the key and turn toward the back of the mouth. Each turn is ? This puts pressure on a lot of bones so we will do ? turns a week |
¼ of a mm
2 (1/2 mm) |
|
good for primary dentition and doesn't tip the teeth
|
rapid palatal expander
|
|
It opens the mid-palatal suture and moves everything lateral creating a diastema
|
rapid palatal expander
|
|
You can place the wire over the central developmental groove of the lower posterior teeth so that you will never over expand but it tips the teeth
|
Porter "W" appliance
|
|
just like a porter except it has coils in it(which trap tissue)?
the ? the wire the kinder it is to the tissue |
4Quadhelix
longer |
|
if you don;t correct posterior crossbite by the age of 5 then the ? will not develop properly
|
articular eminence
|
|
75-80% of the time the ? is involved in the posterior crossibte
|
lateral
|
|
Remember to tell mom that a ? will result from the expansion. They will eventually close though
|
diastema
|
|
maxilla is constricted and too narrow from thumb sucking. You have to correct the habit before you correct the corssbite because it will just come back
|
thumb sucking
|
|
use a single wire with a rubber band. This will fix it but sometimes they won’t wear it
|
single tooth posterior crossbite
|
|
kind of looks like a lower lingual arch. It has a hollow tube in the anterior and a coiled spring running along the posteriors
|
E arch
|
|

A bead appliance
Crib appliance |
|
the bead will spin on the wire that is involved in the appliance. The child will play with the bead and it will cause them to swallow. They will reprogram the tongue
|
bead appliance
|
|
this will physically keep the tongue from going forward. If a huge tongue pushes on the palate it can push everything forward and this is bad! So use this appliance to fix it
