The straight wire concept /certified fixed orthodontic courses by Indian dental academy
1. The Straight Wire
Concept
INDIAN DENTAL ACADEMY
Leader in continuing dental education

2. The straight wire concept
“The birth of a new concept is never an all or none phenomenon. It
is a slow evolution with contributions from many. A new principle is
an inexhaustible source of new views”
“Nothing in education is more astonishing than the amount of
ignorance it accumulates in the form of inert facts.. However , it is
the amalgamation of these inert facts, put forward by the genius’ of
our profession, that has led to the high standard of the Preadjusted
Appliance system which it has acquired today”
“The beauty of this concept is that a more consistent, more ideal
result can be obtained with less physical and mental drain on the
operator in less overall time and minimal discomfort to the patient.”
www.indiandentalacademy.com
3. The Straight Wire Concept
“The straight wire concept is not a product of serendipity,
but is a poetry in design. It is an appliance fully
programmed to combine simplicity and effectiveness
required for the road to success”
The genesis of the straight wire appliance was not a
result of a single stray discovery, but rather the result of
numerous experiments. Many individual innovations
were distilled and combined to form this intricate design.

24. CONCEPT OF THE PEA
APPLIANCE
THE CONCEPT OF THE PEA APPLIANCE EVOLVED
FROM A SERIES OF 5 STUDIES CONDUCTED BY L.F.
ANDREWS.
EXAMINATION OF POST TREATMENT OCCLUSION
STUDY OF NATURALLY OCCURING OPTIMAL
OCCLUSION
THE SIX KEYS TO OPTIMAL OCCLUSION
CROWN MEASUREMENTS
COMPARISON OF TREATED AND NATURAL
OCCLUSION

25. EXAMINATION OF POST TREATMENT
OCCLUSION
The
first experiment was conducted in
1960
Study models of hundreds of treated
cases submitted to the ABO, E. H. Angle
Soc and Tweed Foundation considered to
be the state of the art in static occlusion in
the US.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
26. EXAMINATION OF POST TREATMENT
OCCLUSION
All models showed some common trendsMolars were in Class I relationship
Incisors were not rotated
No overjet/ crossbite
But there were several inconsistencies like Articulation?
Long axes of teeth adjacent to extraction sites
Inclinations and angulations varied
2nd molar not included
Interdental spacing due to incomplete treatment
Rotation of teeth requiring translation
No mounting to check functional occlusion
Co-Cr coordination

STUDY OF NATURALLY
OCCURING OPTIMAL
OCCLUSION
2 experiment, 1964, Help of
nd
A.G.Brodie (Univ of Illinois)
With the presumption that
naturally occuring optimal
occlusion is worth emulating.
120 casts of patients with
following featuresNever had undergone
orthodontic treatment
Well aligned teeth, pleasing
appearance
Excellent occlusion
Would not benefit from
orthodontic treatment
The facial axis and mid point of
clinical crown of each tooth
www.indiandentalacademy.com
was marked
28. THE SIX KEYS TO OPTIMAL
OCCLUSION
The third and most important experiment in the
development of the preadjusted appliance
The 6 keys individually were not new but put together
were of special value asComplete set of indicators of optim al occlusion.
Judged by tangible landmarks
Judged from facial/ occlusal view

31. Six Keys
Key 1
Molar Interarach
relationship
Mesiobuccal cusp of the permanent
maxillary molar occludes in the buccal
groove of the perm mand molar
Distal marginal ridge of the upper 1st molar
occludes with the mesial marginal ridge of
the lower 2nd molar
Mesiopalatal cusp of the upper 1st molar
occludes in the central fossa of the lower ist
molar
Buccal cusps of upper premolars in the
embrasures of the lower premolars
Palatal cusps of upper premolars in a cuspfossa relationship with lower pms
Upper canines in cusp embrasure with lower
canines
Upper anteriors overlap the lower anteriors

individuals

measurement of crowns

•
Bracket area of tooth type

40. COMPARISON OF TREATED AND
NATURAL OCCLUSION
The
5th study compared 1150 treated
cases with the measurements and the six
keys.
KEY 1- Most cases showed Angle’s Class I molar relationship.
However,
The distal marg ridge of upper 6 x mmr of lower 7
Pm’s and canines didn’t show a cusp- embrasure
relationship
www.indiandentalacademy.com
41. COMPARISON OF TREATED AND
NATURAL OCCLUSION
KEY 2-
Values= +/- 2 was considered incorrect
91% of cases had 1 or more teeth with incorrect angulation
Upper laterals and canines showed –ve ang
Upper 6 ranged from -ve in non ext to +ve in ext cases
KEY 3-
Values +/- 2 was considered incorrect
Interincisal angle on FACC > 180* in 78% cases
Upper 456 not always -ve
www.indiandentalacademy.com
42. COMPARISON OF TREATED AND
NATURAL OCCLUSION
KEY 4-
Rotational errors were measured using angle between
contact points and arch form.
Values= +/- 2 was considered incorrect
67% of cases had rotations esp. teeth that were translated
KEY 5-
47% showed spacing due to incorrect angulation
KEY 656% showed excessive curve of spee

44. PRINCIPLES
ALL TEETH OF SAME TYPE WERE SIMILAR IN SIZE
AND SHAPE
SIZE OF CROWN HAS NO EFFECT ON ANGULATION,
INCLINATION OR PROMINENCE
MOST PEOPLE HAVE NORMAL TEETH
REGARDLESS OF OCCLUSION
JAWS MUST BE CORRECTLY RELATED FOR
OPTIMAL OCCLUSION
DENTITIONS WITH NORMAL TEETH IN JAWS THAR
ARE/ CAN BE CORRECTLY RELATED CAN BE
