Abstract

With a case of mesial impaction of maxillary first and second molar, the mechanical analysis and clinical applications of a self-made helical spring for the uprighting treatment of mesial impacted molars was introduced.

本文将结合1例上颌第一、第二磨牙近中阻生病例,介绍一种椅旁自制的螺旋推簧,用于近中阻生磨牙的远中直立移动,并探讨该螺旋推簧的力学原理及临床应用,为竖直近中阻生的磨牙提供一种新的治疗方法。.

Keywords: helical spring; impacted molar; mechanical analysis; molar upright.
