    Area of Science:

    • Orthodontics
    • Dental Treatment Planning

    Background:

    • Space analysis is crucial for orthodontic treatment success, guiding functional and cosmetic outcomes.
    • Current literature often addresses individual aspects of space analysis, lacking integrated approaches.
    • The mandibular arch serves as a stable template for space analysis due to its lower malleability compared to the maxilla.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To develop a comprehensive, integrated space analysis method for orthodontic treatment planning.
    • To provide dentists with a unified approach for determining treatment strategies, including the necessity of tooth extraction.
    • To simplify the complex calculations involved in space analysis through a user-friendly tool.

    Main Methods:

    • Utilizing four key mandibular arch measurements as variables.

  • Incorporating a curve of Spee correction to establish patient-specific arch forms.
  • Developing a three-dimensional total arch form approach integrated into a spreadsheet template.
  • Main Results:

    • The spreadsheet template unifies individual space analysis components into a single, integrated system.
    • It automates most calculations, streamlining the treatment planning process for dentists.
    • The approach customizes starting and final arch forms for each patient.

    Conclusions:

    • The developed spreadsheet offers a comprehensive and integrated solution for orthodontic space analysis.
    • This unified approach aids dentists in making informed decisions regarding treatment options and extractions.
    • The tool simplifies complex calculations, enhancing the efficiency and accuracy of orthodontic treatment planning.
