[Will fluoridation of the drinking water influence the extent of treatment in orthodontic extraction therapy?].

Whether fluoridation of drinking water would have an influence on orthodontic extraction therapy and especially on selection of extraction objects was inquired. Treatment results of 256 patients of a town with fluoridation of drinking water (Chemnitz) who had extraction of teeth under their orthodontic treatment, were interpreted and compared with these of a district without fluoridation of drinking water (Berlin). Evident differences concerning extraction frequency of the various species of teeth were noticed.

[The incidence of hypodontia with the presence and absence of wisdom teeth].

Radiographs of 2550 orthodontic patients were evaluated for tooth agenesia dependent on the presence and the missing of third molars. Tooth agenesia (except third molars) was found in 248 patients (9.7%). The missing of third molars occurs at 427 of 2061 patients (20.7%) aged between 12 and 36 years. At 81.5% of all patients with tooth agenesia at least one of the third molars was missing. The rate of agenesia had an amount of 5.9% (97 of 1634 patients) in the group of patients with presence of all third molars. Whereas the rate of agenesia at patients with missing of one or more third molars was with 27.6% especially great. Moreover it was found out, that the rate of agenesia was the greater the more third molars were missing.

[The treatment of adults with removable appliances? A contribution to orthodontic-prosthetic collaboration].

Request of adults for orthodontic treatment increases. In that cases requirements to the practitioner are of many kinds, especially if in consequence of secondary changes after lost of teeth the patient is not able, as in the past to accept his irregularities of teeth in relation to masticatory, physiognomic and phonetic function. Absolutely there is willingness to wear also removable orthodontic appliances. Possibilities and advantages of plates for orthodontic-prosthetic problems are discussed and examples of treatment demonstrated.
