Abstract

Skeletal Class 3 malocclusions are challenging orthodontic problems that require particular treatment plannings and long term follow-ups. Face mask appliance, which is used for treatment of skeletal Class 3 malocclusions due to maxillary deficiency, has been frequently used in jaw orthopedics with various modifications for many years. Extraoral part of face mask appliance is connected to teeth by intraoral anchorage units with various designs, protraction direction, magnitude and angles which are very significant factors affecting the treatment results. At this point, finite element analysis method can combine engineering with medicine by providing the effects of appliances in craniofacial region, stress and displacement values that may occur as a result of treatments. In order to find the best maxillary protraction protocol without any side effects, several finite element method studies can be found on literature. In this study, previously published finite element analysis method studies on the treatment of maxillary protraction related to face mask were compiled and evaluated.

Yüz Maskesi ile Maksiller Protraksiyon Üzerine Yapılmış Sonlu Elemanlar Analiz Çalışmalarının Değerlendirilmesi

Abstract

İskeletsel Sınıf 3 maloklüzyonlar, özel tedavi planlamaları ve uzun süreli takipler gerektiren zorlu ortodontik problemlerdir. Maksillanın gelişim yetersizliğine bağlı olarak gelişen iskeletsel Sınıf 3 maloklüzyonların tedavisinde kullanılan yüz maskesi apareyi, çeşitli modifikasyonlarla çene ortopedisi alanında uzun yıllardır sıklıkla kullanılmaktadır. Yüz maskesi apareyinin ağız dışı kısmı, ağız içi ankraj üniteleriyle dişlere ve kemik yapılara bağlanır ve bu ünitelerin tasarımları, protraksiyon kuvvetinin uygulama yönü, açısı, kuvvet büyüklüğü gibi faktörler tedavi sonuçlarını etkileyen önemli parametrelerdir. Bu noktada sonlu elemanlar analiz yöntemi, apareylerin kraniyofasiyal bölgedeki etkilerini, tedaviler sonucunda oluşabilecek stres ve yer değiştirme değerlerini sağlayarak mühendisliği tıp ile birleştirebilmektedir. Herhangi bir yan etki oluşturmadan, uygulanabilecek en iyi maksiller protraksiyon protokolünü tespit etme amacıyla yapılmış sonlu elemanlar analiz çalışmaları literatürde bulunmaktadır. Bu çalışmada ise, yüz maskesine bağlı maksiller protraksiyonun tedavisi ile ilgili daha önce yayınlanmış sonlu elemanlar analiz yöntemi çalışmaları derlenmiş ve değerlendirilmiştir.
