Many new developments in design and materials have made it easier for orthodontists to produce good results with fixed appliances in a shorter time. Orthodontic treatment has also become more comfortable and aesthetically pleasing for patients. This is the second of two papers which are intended to provide an update on fixed appliance design and use, so patients can be informed of relevant advances before they are referred to a specialist for orthodontic advice. Part 1 discussed the development in brackets and archwires. Part 2 will now cover recent advances in ligatures and elastomeric ties, intraoral auxiliaries, adhesives, products to assist oral hygiene and prevention during fixed appliance treatment, and new methods of debonding.
设计和材料方面的许多新进展使正畸医生能够更轻松地在更短时间内通过固定矫治器取得良好效果。正畸治疗对患者来说也变得更加舒适且美观。这是两篇论文中的第二篇，旨在提供固定矫治器设计与使用的最新情况，以便患者在向正畸专科医生咨询之前就能了解相关进展。第1部分讨论了托槽和弓丝的发展。第2部分现在将涵盖结扎丝和弹性结扎圈、口内辅助装置、黏合剂、固定矫治器治疗期间协助口腔卫生和预防的产品以及去粘结的新方法的最新进展。
