IntroductionOur objective was to evaluate the factors that affect effective torque control during en-masse incisor and canine retraction when using partially osseointegrated C-implants (Cimplant, Seoul, Korea) as the exclusive source of anchorage without posterior bonded or banded appliances.MethodsBase models were constructed from a dental study model. No brackets or bands were placed on the maxillary posterior dentition during retraction. The working archwire was modeled by using a 3-dimensional beam element (ANSYS beam 4, Swanson Analysis System, Canonsburg, Pa) with a cross section of 0.016 × 0.022-in stainless steel. Different heights of anterior retraction hooks and different degrees of gable bends were applied to the working utility archwire that was placed into the 0.8-mm diameter hole of the C-implant to generate anterior torque on the anterior segment of the teeth. The amount of tooth displacement after finite element analysis was exaggerated 70 times and compared with tooth-axis graphs of the central and lateral incisors and the canine.ResultsThe height of the anterior retraction hook and the degree of the gable bend had a combined effect on the labial crown torque applied to the incisors during en-masse retraction. By using 30° gable bends and the longest hook, lingual root movement of the 6 anterior teeth occurred. By using 20° gable bends, the 6 anterior teeth showed a translation tendency during retraction.ConclusionsThree-dimensional en-masse retraction of the 6 anterior teeth can be accomplished by using partially osseointegrated C-implants as the only source of anchorage, gable bends, and a long retraction hook (biocreative therapy type I technique).
