Introduction The concept of beauty is central to all human cultures regardless of race , age and sex and it is deeply rooted in the nature of man .
In various ways ,human esthetics has been woven into the tradition of human civilization. Physical appearance has always played a significant role in the development of self-conceptualization and self esteem, in the establishment of inter personal relationship, in employment of opportunities and in quality of life.
5www.indiandentalacademy.com
The human facial form is determined largely by the relative positioning of the maxilla and the mandible before , during and after the pubertal growth spurt . The harmonious positioning of the maxilla and the mandible relative to the cranium not only facilitates the ultimate function of the jaw and teeth to break up food , but also forms the anatomical basis of pleasing facial esthetics . 6
www.indiandentalacademy.com
7The area of the body which maximally determines physical attractiveness is the face. It is a primary means of identification , expression and non-verbal communication.There is a high value of cosmetic characteristics in the current society and severe cranio-facial deformity may cause significant psychosocial problems.

To find out the abnormal, one should know what is normal. Further, a knowledge of the feasible treatment modalities is also essential. A correct diagnosis and an ideal treatment decision are the cornerstones of a successful treatment. They form the proper beginning.
11www.indiandentalacademy.com
Normal GrowthWhen the horizontal, vertical and transverse growth components of maxilla and mandible match that of each other, normal growth results.12www.indiandentalacademy.com
GrowthStewart 1982 : Growth may be defined as a developmental increase in mass. In other words it is a process that leads to increase in the physical size of cells, tissues, organs or organisms as a whole
13www.indiandentalacademy.com
Groeth is the copmosite changes of all componenets13
Profitt 1986 Growth usually refers to an increase in size and the number
Moyers 1988 Growth may be defined as the normal changes in the amount of living substance.
14www.indiandentalacademy.com
Development MoyersDevelopment refers to all naturally occurring progressive, unidirectional, sequential changes in the life of an individual from its existence as a single cell to its elaboration as a multifunctional unit terminating in deathEnlowDevelopment connotes a maturational process involving progressive differentiation at the cellular and tissue levels

Displacement
Primary Displacement displacement of a bone in conjunction with its own growth. Initiated by the sum of the expansive forces of the soft tissue.

As a bone enlarges , it simultaneouslyCarried away from other bones in direct Articulation with it.www.indiandentalacademy.com
Secondary displacement-Movement of bone is not directly related to its own enlargement but by the growth of the other bones and their soft tissues.

www.indiandentalacademy.com
Condylar cartilageCondyle plays significant role , it is directly involved as a unique , regional growth site ; it provides site for adaptive growth, it provides movable articulation , it is pressure tolerant and provides a means for bone growth (endochondral) in a situation in which ordinary periosteal (intramembranous ) growth would not be possible .26www.indiandentalacademy.com
Lattitude- freedom , leeway, autonomy , liberty. IF THE GROWTH, SHAPE, AND DIMENSIONS OF mandible were actually preprogrammed within the genes of condylar chondroblasts and if the condyle were indeed to function as a master center without taking into account structural and developmental vagaries in the rest of craniofacial complex, there is no way that fitting of mandible to basicranium on one end and to maxilla on other end could be achieved.
26
Condylar cartilage - major growth site , having considerable clinical significance.
Is a secondary cartilage, which means that it does not develop by differentiation from the established primary cartilages of the fetal skull (the cartilages of the pharyngeal arches , such as Meckels cartilage, and the definitive cartilages of the basicranium) .

Homeostasis and adaptability.The adaptability of the condyle to various functional relationships during the growth period , which is one of the basic principles of the functional jaw orthopedics .
Function is indeed the common denominator joining the individual parts of the orofacial system into a dynamic , integrated and purposive systemPetrovic and Rakosi.35www.indiandentalacademy.com
Disturbances in one part of this system not only remain isolated but affect the equilibrium of the whole system .
This unique quality is important in not only etiologic considerations but also in the assessment of the effectiveness and various side effects of different orthodontic appliances.36www.indiandentalacademy.com
37DIFFERENT APPROACHES IN ORTHODONTICSEnvelope of discrepancy shows how much change can be produced by various treatment modalities.Envelope of discrepancywww.indiandentalacademy.com

This envelope of discrepancy is not symmetric.
In general greater discrepancies can be corrected by orthodontic-functional treatment in the sagittal planes than in the vertical or transverse planes.

Dentofacial deformityRefers to deviations from the normal facial proportions and dental relationships that are severe to be handicapping .
The affected individuals are handicapped in two ways A) Jaw function is compromised .
B) Dental and facial appearance often leads to discrimination in social interaction 43www.indiandentalacademy.com

Vertical problem Orthodontists must consider, understand ,and appreciate the value of vertical growth as it relates to antero-posterior growth.These two factors should be considered as opposing forces, each weighing for the control of pogonion. Vertical growth tries to carry pogonion downwards and anteroposterior growth tries to carry it forward.The interplay of growth in these two directions is responsible for various retrognathic and prognathic profiles.

Transverse dimension problem
In contrast to the aggressive approaches often taken in treating skeletally based anteroposterior and vertical problems , orthodontists traditionally have been reluctant to change the arch dimensions transversly .
Yet it appears that the Transverse dimension of the maxilla may be the most adaptable of all the regions of the craniofacial complex.
60www.indiandentalacademy.com
The key to such adaptations in the transverse dimension is the use of rapid maxillary expansion as routine treatment procedure .
Most orthodontists cite crossbite as the primary reason to alter the transverse dimension clinically
61www.indiandentalacademy.com
It is very common for one or more of the maxillary posteriors to be in a lingual orientation relative to the mandibular teeth
Through the widening of the midpalatal suture , the correction of a posterior crossbite is accomplished quite readily in a patient in whom the maxillary sutural system is still patent.

Fourth dimension To use functional appliance growth is essential .
Success can be achieved in some cases in the pre pubertal or post-pubertal growth period , the optimum time should include the period of maximum growth velocity. 76
www.indiandentalacademy.com
77TIMING OF TREATMENT
Growth modulation is possible only in patients who are growing actively
Girls before boys- as they mature earlier.
Severe cases should begin earlier than mild cases
Retention must continue until active growth is essentially complete
www.indiandentalacademy.com
78Where prominent upper incisors are vulnerable to trauma - early treatment is indicted.Class III malocclusion also responds to early interventionAbnormal perioral musculature must be eliminated at the earliest.
Ideally, treatment would be provided when it is most effective and most efficient.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
GROWTH MODULATON A variety of different functional appliances are available. The appliance selected for the treatment can be adapted to the type of anomaly and to the growth pattern. The growth direction, the growth amount, and the timing are relevant to the ultimate success of the treatment. Consequently, diagnosis and case selection are critical for functional treatment.
79www.indiandentalacademy.com
Functional treatment in general is the principle that a "new pattern of function," dictated by the appliance, leads to the development of a correspondingly "new morphologic pattern."The "new pattern of function" can refer to different functional components of the orofacial system for example, the tongue, the lips, the facial and masticatory muscles, the ligaments, and the periosteum. 80www.indiandentalacademy.com
81
The "new morphologic pattern" includes a different arrangement of the teeth within the jaws, an improvement of the occlusion, and an altered relation of the jaws.
It also includes changes in the amount and direction of growth of the jaws, and differences in the facial size and proportions.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
Depending on the type of appliance, its proponent puts more emphasis on one of these different functional components.Eg Frankel emphasis on perioral musculature.

Functional appliance therapy87
In the last 40 years, functional appliance therapy has become a generally accepted method to treat severe and moderate discrepancies of sagittal jaw relations in children.
Until now, functional appliance therapy had its greatest application and success in Class II malocclusion
www.indiandentalacademy.com
88The success of functional appliance therapy depends on the neuromuscular response.
Mandibular orthopedics must modify growth signals targeted at both the ramus and condyle to be maximally effective
www.indiandentalacademy.com
89PRINCIPLES AND MODE OF ACTION OF FUNCTIONAL APPLIANCES
A primary objective of functional appliances is to take advantage of natural forces and transmit them to selected areas to produce the desired change.www.indiandentalacademy.com
90FORCESThe duration of force in most functional appliance treatment is interrupted
The direction of force for the movement of teeth should be consistent
The magnitude of force is small in functional appliance therapy www.indiandentalacademy.com
91Applied force may be compressive or tensile.
Depending on the type applied, two treatment principles can be differentiated: force application and force elimination
In force application, compressive stress and strain act on the structures involved, resulting in a primary alteration in form with a secondary adaptation in function In force elimination, abnormal and restrictive environmental influences are eliminated, allowing optimal development www.indiandentalacademy.com
92Classification of functional appliancesGroup I Transmit muscle force directly to the teeth Group II - All reposition the mandible downward and forward Group III - Major operating area is in the vestibule
Also been classified as Myotonic and Myodynamicwww.indiandentalacademy.com
93Increased contractile activity of LPMIntensification of the repetitive activity of the Retrodiscal padIncrease in growth-stimulating factorsEnhancement of local mediators.Reduction in factors having negative feedback effects on cell multiplication rateChange in condylar trabecular orientationAdditional growth of condylar cartilageAdditional subperiosteal ossification of the posterior border of the mandible.Supplementary lengthening of the mandible.MODE OF ACTION OF FUNCTIONAL APPLIANCES

94The Pterygoid Response
Within a few days of the fitting of functional appliances, the position of muscle balance is altered so greatly that the patient experiences pain when retracting the mandible
Due to the formation of a tension zone distal to the condyle www.indiandentalacademy.com

96Although it has been generally accepted that the orofacial musculature has a profound influence on the development of the face and dentition, it may be very difficult to evaluate and quantify this effect as it relates to the morphology, to the relative position, and to the functional behavior of the muscular components.
The importance of the lateral pterygoid muscle has conclusively been demonstrated in the experiments of McNamara, Petrovic, and their respective colleagues.Volume Aug (162 - 168):AJO DO 1998www.indiandentalacademy.com
97One of the earliest functional appliances was called the Activator because it was supposed to activate the masticatory, facial, lip, and tongue musculature. Andresen believed that the protractor muscles of the mandible especially were stimulated by the use of the activator.

The Functional Regulator
Prof -Rolf Frankel.
He has been an outstanding contributor to functional appliance thought & the creator of the Function regulator (Frankel) system of appliances103www.indiandentalacademy.com
104
The treatment with this appliance is not primarily directed toward the teeth or the skeletal tissues themselves but rather to the functional disorders
The primary aim of treatment is to identify a faulty postural performance of the orofacial musculature and to correct it by a functional therapy. www.indiandentalacademy.com
105The reestablishment of adequate space conditions of the oral functioning space is primary aim of a functional treatment
However, we must not only correct the existing structural aberrations but also the functional performances of the muscles forming the circumoral capsule

Orthopedic AppliancesThese appliances are used in the growing stage to control or alter the growth of the maxillo-mandibular skeletal components in the anteroposterior, vertical and transverse directions.Hence they are termed growth modulation appliances.118www.indiandentalacademy.com
Patients with maxillary excess skeletal class II malocclusion with a component of excessive horizontal or vertical growth of the maxilla and some protrusion of maxillary teeth.Reasonably good mandibular dental and skeletalmorphology as this will be minimally affected by extraoral forces. Potential for continued mandibular growthIDEAL PATIENTS FOR TREATMENT WITH HEADGEARS:119www.indiandentalacademy.com
3. In these patients, restriction of vertical maxillary growth is needed along with an augmentation of mandibular growth that is left. Control of vertical eruption of teeth in both the arches is important.high pull headgear for upper molars is givenInterocclusal bite blocks can also aid in prevention of eruption of posterior teeth. E.g. high pull HG with functional appliances.

Patients with horizontal maxillary deficiency:
These patients are ideal candidates for treatment with extraoral forces using the reverse pull headgear. This causes reciprocal downward and backward rotation of the mandible. Ideal patients should have normally positioned or slightly retrusive but not protrusive maxillary teeth Normal or short but not long anterior facial height
Ideal age of 8 yrs
125www.indiandentalacademy.com
REVERSE PULL HEADGEAR
Maxillary protraction is recommended for skeletal Class III patients with maxillary deficiency. Delaire and others used face mask for maxillary protraction. Petit later modified Delaires concept by increasing the amount of force generated and thus reducing the overall treatment time. In 1987, McNamara introduced the use of bonded acrylic expansion appliance with acrylic occlusal coverage for maxillary protraction. Turley improved patient co-operation by fabricating customized facemasks. 126
www.indiandentalacademy.com
The current literature indicates that reverse pull head gear is an effective treatment for growing class 3 maloccusions with average to deep bite.
The correction occurs by combination of skeletal and dental movement in the anteroposterior and vertical planes of space.127www.indiandentalacademy.com
