[The design of removable appliances for tooth movement and tooth migration].
Removable/functional appliance therapy can still be further expanded and developed. Retentive elements in the anterior region increase anchorage. Thereby, active forces can be utilised without anchorage loss. Functional appliances are indicated following extraction, to maximise on tooth migration. In first molar extraction cases, treatment with activators is relatively straightforward. When considering premolar extraction cases with possible need for extraction later of the third molars as well, then one should consider extraction of the first permanent molars. With correct use of the appliance, it is possible to optimally align the second molar teeth as well as favourably influencing the soft tissue profile.
