[Clinically relevant biomechanics. 3. Critical reflections about the Burstone intrusion mechanics].
A segmented arch for intrusion of front teeth, as described by Burstone, is compared to a coil-and-stylus-model. The mechanics of constructive modifications are analyzed and their consequences for the movements of front teeth are discussed. It is shown, that in some cases extrusive forces occur, while intrusive forces are applied. In these cases it is necessary to reduce intrusive forces below 0.20 Newton per side. In order to avoid extrusive forces, it is recommended to apply intruding forces between the centers of resistance of the central and lateral incisors.
