title: [Arch-guided tooth movement--its dynamics, efficacy and side effects].
abstract: Canine retraction on a continuous arch wire was simulated using the OMSS. The influence of wire dimension, force generating element (power chain, coil spring, powerhook, uprighting spring), bracket width and the position of the center of resistance on the effectiveness of the distalization of the canine and its side effects such as extrusion, rotation and tipping were examined. Stainless steel, nickel titanium and multi-stranded wires were tested. Employing the 0.018"-slot system, the use of an 0.016" X 0.022"-arch wire gave the best results. Comparing the NiTi coil spring with the elastic chain, the former should be preferred, because, due to its low load deflection it generates a nearly constant force over a wide range of activation. Using powerhooks or uprighting springs, a nearly bodily movement could be achieved. On the other hand, friction may increase if the uprighting is too strong. The rate of tooth movement decreases by increasing length of tooth root represented by the position of the center of resistance. Arch guided tooth movement along multi-stranded wires shows a high effectiveness, nevertheless, these wires should not be used for canine retraction because of the above mentioned side effects.
