Abstract

Proximal caries or coronal defect in posterior teeth may result in the loss of proximal space and drifting of neighboring teeth, which makes restoration difficult. Inability to restore proper contours and to align tooth axis properly are commonly encountered problems when planning tooth restoration. Moreover, tilted teeth aggravate periodontal tissue breakdown, such as pseudo-pocket, and angular osseous defect. The purpose of this case presentation is to describe a simple technique for inducing minor tooth movement with orthodontic separating ring and provisional restoration modification. This method was used to create crown placement space on mesially tilted molar. This method is easy, simple and efficient technique which could be used in interproximal space gaining in selected situation.

인접면의 우식증으로 인해 인접면의 공간 소실과 후방치아의 근심 경사가 발생한 본 증례에서 치아의 보철 수복 전 교정용 링의 삽입과 임시 전장관의 수정을 통해 치간 공간의 획득과 치축의 개선을 시행할 수 있었다.
