Summary

Temporary anchorage devices (TADs) significantly reduce anchorage loss in orthodontic patients needing maxillary first premolar extractions. TADs offer superior space closure compared to conventional methods, improving treatment outcomes.

Area of Science:

  • Orthodontics
  • Dental Implantology

Background:

  • Maxillary first premolar extraction is common in orthodontics.
  • Achieving adequate anchorage is crucial for successful space closure.
  • Conventional methods may lead to undesirable anchorage loss.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the efficacy of temporary anchorage devices (TADs) in preventing anchorage loss during orthodontic space closure.
  • To compare TADs with conventional methods for anchorage reinforcement in extraction cases.

Main Methods:

  • Systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and controlled clinical trials (CCTs).
  • Searched multiple databases (PubMed, Embase, Cochrane, Web of Science) and hand-searched key orthodontic journals.
  • Included studies on orthodontic patients requiring maxillary first premolar extraction and space closure without anchorage loss.

Main Results:

  • Fourteen studies (7 RCTs, 7 CCTs) involving 303 patients in the TAD group and 313 in the control group were analyzed.
  • The TAD group demonstrated significantly less anchorage loss compared to the conventional methods.
  • On average, TADs provided 1.86mm greater anchorage preservation.

Conclusions:

  • TADs are more effective than conventional methods for anchorage reinforcement in orthodontic treatment.
  • The observed average difference of 2mm in anchorage preservation is statistically and clinically significant.
  • Further high-quality research is recommended due to the moderate quality of the included studies.
