Abstract

Introduction: Malocclusion is a dental health problem that has a high prevalence rate. According to WHO, the periodic ranking is below dental caries and periodontal disease. The prevalence in Indonesia reaches 80%. Orthodontic treatment requires intensive time to control every month. This is an obstacle forcertain patients who have busy schedules and great distances from the clinic to the dentist clinic. In this context, orthodontics was invited to go forward using tele-orthodontic devices which is a term used for long-distance orthodontic treatment through information technology media, not through direct contact with individual contacts. Objective: To examine more deeply about tele-orthodontics as a solution in the treatment of malocclusion. Discussion: Dental MonitoringTM is a software-based program that enables practitioners to monitor the development of patient care remotely. Another advantage is closer management through remote monitoring, saving time, transportation costs, and increasing patient comfort. Conclusion: Tele-orthodontics can be used as a current solution to treatment for malocclusion.

Abstract

Background: The resorption of the mandibular alveolar bone is a common problem in the edentulous jaw, causing the alveolar ridge to become flat. This can lead to poor complete denture function and an unbalanced occlusion. Therefore, treatment is needed to obtain adequate retention and stability in edentulous mandible. Today, mini implant overdenture using magnetic retention is often used as a treatment for edentulous mandible. Objective: To review the literature on mini implant overden-ture using magnetic retention in prosthodontic cases. Discussion: Implant overdenture is a complete or partial denture covering the implant used as a support. Stability and retention of dentures in the long term can be achieved by using a small diameter implant called mini dental implant that is mounted directly on the alveolar ridge using magnets. Conclusion: Mini implant overdenture can be used in cases of edentulous mandible to obtain good retention and stability.
