Complications of interproximal enamel reduction are hypersensitivity , irreversible damage of dental pulp , increased formation of plaque , the risk of caries in the stripped enamel areas and periodontal diseases .
CONCLUSION Interproximal enamel reduction is an important part of orthodontic treatment for gaining space in the dental arch , and for the correction of the Bolton index discrepancy
OBJECTIVE Interproximal enamel reduction is a part of orthodontic treatment for gaining a modest amount of space in the treatment of crowding .
Today interproximal enamel reduction has become a viable alternative to the extraction of permanent teeth , and helps to adjust the Bolton Index discrepancy .
The aim of the study is to evaluate various interproximal enamel reduction techniques , its indications , contraindications and complications presented in recent scientific studies .
A comparison of second premolar extraction and mini-implant total arch distalization with interproximal stripping.
OBJECTIVE The effect of total arch distalization using orthodontic mini-implants ( OMIs ) combined with interproximal stripping ( IPS ) and second premolar extraction was investigated in Class I malocclusion patients . MATERIAL S AND METHODS A total of 66 consecutively treated Class I malocclusion ( Class I molar relationship ; 0 mm < overbite and overjet < 4.5 mm ) patients ranging in age from 17 to 44 years who received single-phase treatment were included in this study . Pre- and posttreatment lateral cephalograms and dental casts were measured and compared statistically . RESULTS In the distalization with IPS group , 3.6 mm and 3.8 mm of crowding in the upper and lower arches , respectively , were resolved , and 3.8 mm and 3.2 mm of upper and lower incisor retraction , respectively , were achieved simultaneously by the treatment . As a result of the second premolar extraction treatment , 3.9 mm and 3.6 mm of crowding in the upper and lower arches , respectively , were resolved , and 3.3 mm and 3.2 mm of incisor retraction , respectively , were achieved during treatment . There was no statistically significant difference in the amount of crowding and incisor retraction between the two groups . CONCLUSIONS Total arch distalization using an OMI with IPS did not yield a significantly different treatment result compared to second premolar extraction treatment
