人物介绍
Dr. Kook is President of Korean Association of Orthodontists, Dean of the Graduate School of Clinical Dental Science and the professor of the Orthodontic Department at Seoul St. Mary's Hospital. Currently, he is a Clinical Professor at Department of Orthodontics, Arizona School of Dentistry & Oral Health and Saint Louis Univ.
He has published about 100 articles in international peer-reviewed journals regarding corticotomy, arch form, CBCT, and arch form. He also published several book chapters.
摘要
Topic: Efficient alternatives to conventional Class II extraction treatments
Extraction frequency was reported to be especially high among class ll malocclusion patient. Recently, extraction rate is decreasing due to development of temporary anchorage system and patient’s request.
In treatment of class II cases the multi-purpose C-palatal appliance(MCPA) is a highly effective device, which can be easily placed and managed by orthodontists.
Scientific evidence demonstrated that the application of MCPA resulted in successful treatment outcomes by efficient molar distalization with a near-bodily movement. According to recent clinical research, effect of maxillary arch distalization related to eruption stage of second molars was evaluated. Moreover, maxillary posterior structures after distalization were evaluated after long-term retention period.
A creative and innovative approach for Class II correction using MCPA will be discussed including biomechanics and practical guidelines. Clinical pearls and a simple management of MCPA including step-by-step placement procedures with use of a digital jig will be presented.
