Insignia System in Orthodontic Braces


·         Orthodontic diagnosis deals with the recognition of the various characteristics of the malocclusion. Comprehensive orthodontic diagnosis is established by use of certain clinical implements called diagnostic aids.

·          Recent advance in diagnostic aids address a special aspect of orthodontic diagnosis and treatment planning that has become increasingly, important in our litigious society.

·         Insignia braces are a new and revolutionary approach to orthodontic treatment.

·         Insignia was created by Dr. Craig Andreiko, who build the system with the premise to improve clinical efficiency.

·         With the usage of 3D imaging, insignia will create precise and customized brackets and wire that will best fit your orthodontic needs – all without the need for messy impression.

·         The insignia software uses more than 40.000 data points per tooth, as well as unique algorithm to design the patients final result and customise appliances.

       

The three key feature of insignia:

  1. 100 % customized brackets
  2. Clear precision placement guide
  3. Customized arch wires ( NiTi , Cu NiTi , TMA,SS)



WHY CHOOSE INSIGNIA?

  1. It offers 100% bracket and wires. While traditional braces are manufactured to fit everyone's teeth, it is completely unique to the patient.
  2. Since the treatment is personalized to an individual's needs, each bracket is precise enough to affect your teeth in the most optimal way, allowing the fastest treatment possible.

  4. Fewer visit to the clinic.
  5. It will let you view the finished result of your orthodontic treatment before the process even starts.



HOW IT WORKS?

1.      SCAN: Patient data is designed and prepared for 3D design. 


2.      DESIGN: Case specialist provide a setup that you are able to review and manipulate using insignia approver software.


3.      BULID:  Custom brackets, wires and placement guides are fabricated based on your approved design.


4.      BOND: Custom brackets are accurately positioned with precision indirect bonding jigs.

PERIODONTAL SPLINTING

Image
WHAT IS SPLINTING? SPLINTING IN DENTISTRY IS “the joining of 2 or more teeth into a rigid unit by means of fixed or removable restorations or devices.” Dental splint: An appliance designed to immobilize and stabilize mobile loose teeth. (AAP1986 Glossary) RATIONALE FOR SPLINTING 1. To provide rest. 2. Redirects the force in a more axial direction.   3. Redistribution of force so that forces do not exceed the adaptive capacity of the periodontium. 4. To preserve the arch integrity 5. Restores a functional occlusion, stabilizes mobile abutment teeth and increases masticatory efficiency. 6. Gives the patient freedom from mobile teeth 7. To stabilize mobile teeth during surgical, especially regenerative therapy. IDEAL REQUIREMENTS OF A SPLINT   1. Simple.   2. Economic   3. Stable and efficient 4. Esthetically acceptable   5. It should incorporate as many firm teeth as is necessary to reduce the extra load on individual teeth to a

GINGIVAL DEPIGMENTATION TECHNIQUES

Image
  The gingiva is an important intraoral tissue which when affected particularly by pigmentation is mainly responsible for the unpleasant appearance. The gingival melanin pigmentation occurs in all races in variable amount caused by melanin granules. Gingival hyperpigmentation can be defined as a darker gingival color beyond what is normally expected. The degree of pigmentation varies from person to person. Excessive gingival pigmentation may be a major esthetic concern for many patients. VARIOUS DEPIGMENTATION TECHNIQUES: 1.      Chemical method: by using agents like alcohols, phenols, and ascorbic acid. 2.      Surgical method: it includes 5 techniques i.e.: ·         Conventional techniques : gingival abrasion, split thickness epithelial excision, scalpel surgical technique, free gingival grafting ·         Electrosurgery ·         Lasers ·         Cryosurgery ·         Radiosurgery   ASCORBIC ACID: ·         It inhibits the denuding of pigmented gingival epith

DENTAL ABSCESS

Image
A dental abscess is a localized collection of pus as a result of a bacterial infection associated with the tooth. Types of dental abscess: 1.       Periapical abscess: Localized collection of the pus at the tip of the root. Usually occurs as a result of untreated dental caries that further approaches the pulp and lead to inflammation of pulp due to bacterial invasion. 2.       Gingival abscess: Localized collection of the pus involving only gum tissue. The abscess is due to the external damage to the gum tissue either due to food lodgement or digging the area with a toothpick. 3.       Periodontal abscess:   Localized collection of the pus involving bone adjacent to the tooth. occurs as a complication of advanced periodontal disease . It occurs when bacteria invade and multiply within the soft tissue of the gingival crevice/periodontal pocket. 4.       Pericoronal abscess: Localized abscess involving the gum tissue surrounding the crown of a partially or full
