Minor Tooth Movement with Microimplants for Prosthetic Treatment
Hyo-Sang Park
This new book was written with both the orthodontist and the restorative dentist in mind, with the intention of providing easier and better patient treatment. The objective of this book is obtaining desired tooth movements without unwanted side effects, and in doing so, providing better supported and positioned dental prostheses. The book is illustrated extensively, showing step-by-step treatment procedures.
With the declining demand for fixed crown and bridge prosthesis and the increasing demand for prosthetic dental implants as the choice for restoring missing teeth, the alignment of the remaining teeth has gained increased importance. Dr. Park, one of the true pioneers in microimplant technology, presents protocols for simple and concise tooth movements such as the intrusion of an extruded tooth, space distribution for better prosthesis design and support, the uprighting of mesially tipped molars, and forced eruption. As the movements required are precise and no reactive movement is allowed, the control of anchorage is the key factor that governs the success of treatment.
Dr. Hyo-Sang Park is a professor in the Department of Orthodontics, Kyungpook National University, Daegu Korea. He and his colleagues have been leaders in the development of absolute anchorage systems with microimplants for over 10 years.
