In this article, we explain the diffrent Velum positions that help perform the different plato-pharyangel mechanisms.  Plato-pharyngeal Mechanism The Velum is The soft palate (also known as velum or muscular palate) is, in mammals, the soft tissue constituting the back of the roof of the mouth. The soft palate is distinguished from the hard palate at the front of the mouth in that it does not contain bone.[divider scroll_text=””] Relaxed position of the velum Required for normal breathing from both the oral and nasal pathway.

In this article, we state in order of which teeth should be chosen for orthodontic extraction , the reasons for that choice and advantages. Candidates of Orthodontic Extractions Premolars “Premolar extraction” provides about 8 mm of space per quadrant and is the accepted way to provide space in order to relieve crowding, retract incisors that are too protruded and to move the molars mesially.[divider scroll_text=””] First Premolar Advantages The most commonly extracted tooth, because of its Central position in each quadrant, thus it is always near the site of crowding. It can be replaced by the 2nd premolar (same shape,…

In this article we explain briefly about orthodontic extractions, reasons, factors and different type of extractions. Orthodontic Extractions Extractions of teeth are defined as painless removal of the teeth from their sockets. Reasons To relieve crowding: this is done when the dental arch (teeth) is too big to fit into the basal arch without irregularities , thus its needed to extract teeth to reduce the size of the dental arch to fit the basal arch properly. (In mild cases of crowding we can do stripping and expansion instead of extraction. Correction of Antero-posterior dental arch mal-relation: mal-relation is similar in…

In this article, an unbelievable case of a person who self treated him self with the right basic ideas!!! Post Presented by Mayada Ashraf “U won’t believe this!! This is a 30 years old patient, who came to me after extracting his upper right central incisor using  kamasha (Industrial Pliers).
