  • Carey’s analysis

Orthodontics Model Analysis Carey's analysis

  • Bolton’s analysis
    • According to Bolton, tooth size is an important factor to be taken into consideration for diagnosis and there exists a ratio between mesio-distal widths of maxillary and mandibular teeth
    • Bolton’s overall ration is 91.3%
    • If overall ratio is less than 91.3%, it indicates maxillary tooth material excess
    • Bolton’s anterior tooth ratio is 77.2%
    • If anterior ratio is less than 77.2%, it indicates maxillary anterior excess
  • Tanaka Johnson analysis
    • This analysis does not require any radiographs or reference tables
    • The width of unerupted canines and premolars can be predicted based on width of mandibular incisors
    • Width of maxillary canine and premolars = 11 + 1/2 width of madibular incisors
    • Width of mandibular canine and premolars = 10.2 + 1/2 width of mandibular incisors

Procedure Of Mixed Dentition Analysis

Inference Of Mixed Dentition Analysis:

  • Compare tooth sizes 3,4 and 5 and the arch length available

Question 4. Peck and peck ratio.
Answer.

  • It is based on the concept of stability of rotational corrections of lower incisors rather than tooth size considerations
  • It is calculated as
    • Peck and peck ratio = Mesiodistal width / Faciolingual diameter x 100
  • The normal ratio for central incisors is 88-92% and for lateral incisors is 90-95%
  • This ratio is used to determine whether lower incisor teeth are excessively wider mesiodistally or not

Question 5. Tanaka-Johnston analysis.
Answer.

  • Tanaka-Johnston analysis is a mixed dentition analysis
  • It predicts the widths of unerupted canines and premolars based on the sum of the width of lower incisors

Methods Of Tanaka-Johnston Analysis:

  • Measure the total arch length
  • Measure the mesiodistal width of the lower four incisors and sum them up
  • Divide the value obtained by 2 and
  • Add 10.5 mm to obtain the sum of widths of mandibular canines and premolars in one quadrant
  • Add 10.5 mm to obtain the sum of widths of maxillary canines and premolars in one quadrant
  • The formula to calculate the space available is
    • Space available = Total arch length – Sum of the lower incisors + 2 x Calculated width of canine and premolar

Advantages Of Tanaka-Johnston Analysis:

  • Simple and practical
  • Accurate
  • Require neither radiographs nor reference tables

Question 6. Korkhaus analysis.
Answer.

  • Korkhaus in 1938 proposed a study model analysis that reveals anteroposterior malpositioning of incisors in maxillary and mandibular arches
  • A measurement is made from the midpoint of the inter-premolar line to a point between the two maxillary incisors
  • According to Korkhaus, for a given width of upper incisors, a specific value of the distance between the two maxillary incisors should exist
  • An increase in this measurement denotes proclined upper anterior teeth while a decrease in this value denotes reclined upper anterior teeth

Model Analysis Viva Voce

  • Bolton’s analysis proposes that tooth size abnormalities cause malocclusion
  • Pont’s analysis indicates the need for expansion rather than extraction
  • Peck and Peck is a model analysis of mandibular arch
  • Ashley and Howe’s analysis indicates tooth extraction if the premolar basal arch width is less than 37%
