BACKGROUNDThe need to perform extractions as part of the treat-ment plan for some malocclusions remains one of thegreat controversies in orthodontics.

Since the dawn of the specialty, Angle passionatelydefended the conservation of all teeth for perfect oc-clusion. He eventually accepted the need to abandonthis ultraconservative position and to take into ac-count the impact on the profile, stability and otherconstraints, such as periodontal health and declaredto have acted to maintain the complete dental provi-sion of some of his patients at all costs. On the otherhand, Calvin Case, who could be considered a con-temporary scientific adversary, advocated the use ofpermanent teeth extractions, if necessary, to success-fully resolve malocclusion (Figure 1).

Since then, there have been swings in prevailing cur-rents of opinion regarding therapeutic extractions inorthodontics. On the one hand, these movementshave been based on the different fashions presidingover facial aesthetics at different historical times; butalso on the availability of therapeutic techniques andinstruments of varying scientific bases, replacingwhat were previously inevitable extractions for han-dling certain malocclusions. Fundamental amongthese was the introduction of the palatal arch bar byCetlin, distalisers, microscrews, and self-ligatingbracket systems.

This review discusses the most relevant aspects sur-rounding the application of this important therapeu-tic tool in orthodontics, in the light of informationfound in the literature. We will focus on the indica-

tions for extractions and the patterns of teeth to ex-tract.

I. INDICATIONS FOREXTRACTION IN DENTISTRY

Therapeutic extractions in orthodontics are primarilydone for the following reasons:

1. Achieving arch space: To correct negative osseo-dental discrepancy (DOD), which usually mani-fests as crowding.

2. Facial aesthetics: To reduce dentoalveolar pro-trusion.

3. Occlusion: To properly connect both arches innormo-occlusion.

4. Stability: To better maintain the results achieved.

5. Others: For example, periodontal health, dentaland medical pathology.

1. Extractions and arch space: DOD

One of the most important and common indicationsfor orthodontic extractions is the lack of space in thearch that usually manifests as more or less localisedcrowding.

Achieving proper dental alignment in their bony basesrequires consideration of the compromise betweenthe size of the teeth themselves and the size and shapeof their bases within the framework of the dentofacialskeletal relationship for each patient. The orthodontistcan act on the maxillomandibular skeleton well usingorthopaedic means in children, as well as in adoles-cents with residual growth or with surgical care wherethere is no such growth. In every case, the limits im-posed by the individual maxillomandibular anatomymust always be assessed when deciding whether amalocclusion with negative DOD can be resolved con-servatively or whether one must resort to extractions.

Some multibracket systems, particularly self-ligating,have entered the market declaring they are able to re-

duce the need for extractions in a number of cases ofnegative osseodental discrepancy, where it wouldhave been essential to remove teeth if conventionaltechniques had been applied. However, disputes inthis regard are very important. Many authors considerthat these techniques only produce a dental overex-pansion of the arch which does not correspond to realproduction of alveolar bone to neutralise the DOD,and instead could lead to an unacceptable weakeningof the alveolar bone tables.

Distalisation devices to prevent extractions by mesial-isation of the maxillary molars where there is a lackof space deserve a special mention. Distalising thesemolars can lead to recovery of space in the arch thatcould otherwise only be obtained by extracting pre-molares7-10.

Mention must also be made of the unquestionablecontribution that micro-implant development hasmade in preventing many extractions; in fact, this isone of its numerous indications.

When there is a negative osseodental discrepancy dueto excess transverse dimensions in the teeth, it is fea-sible to reduce this by a stripping technique. How-ever, one or more teeth will have to be removed inmany cases, even after reasonable expansion of thearches. This method does not exclude extractions, butin many cases is complementary to them; i.e. achiev-ing a suitably wide arch is a goal in itself, which willnot always guarantee that DOD extractions will beavoided.

2. Extractions and facial aesthetics

One of the main indications for orthodontic extrac-tions is to achieve a more harmonious profile in pa-tients with excessive facial convexity secondary todental biprotrusion. It must be noted, in this regard,that the concept of the ideal profile has changed no-tably throughout the last century6. Several decadesago, the ideal Caucasian profile was flat or evenslightly biretrusive, with relatively thin lips; while inrecent times more convex profiles have become morepopular with a marked lip relief and a wide smile with

buccal corridors. This change in tastes for greater fa-cial convexity is mainly for women and in Caucasians;whereas in the male and in oriental races, the flat pro-file is still considered more harmonious. Obviously,this is not the case in negroid races, one of whosemost characteristic features is precisely biprotrusion.

The greater tolerance to convexity in our environmenthas naturally reduced the need for extractions due tobiprotrusion and DOD. For example, Proffit performeda study on the changes in the pattern of extractionsin the treatment of malocclusions during the last 60years. It showed that the frequency of extractions wasaround 30% for the years 1953 and 1993: 40 yearsapart. However, interestingly, the analysis in 1968gave a result of 76%. The explanation given for thishigh percentage was the trend at the time for remov-ing all teeth outside of the arch. At present, this pro-portion is limited to 5%; 20% down on most studies1.

However, there are some facial features linked to ex-cessive convexity which are objectionable in any aes-thetic framework and put a limit on the extractionoption. One of those features is the hyperactivity ofthe muscles of the chin associated with biprotrusionwhich, in an effort to close the lips, gives the chin akind of "golf ball" appearance.

The positive effect on the profile of extracting the bi-cuspids in patients with a normal vertical dimensionor a little short and a marked biprotrusion, especiallyif associated with crowding, is generally clear; thus,there is usually agreement among authors for its in-dication1. This does not occur in the biprotrusive pa-tients with a pattern of mandibular posterorotationand dolicofacial growth. The aesthetic result in thesepatients of resolving biprotrusion with extractions isunpredictable, if not clearly wrong; so the clinician isoften faced with the choice of obtaining good occlu-sion at the risk of worsening facial aesthetics, or notaltering the profile and accepting the limitations in theresolution of the malocclusion. Obviously, in caseswhere the dentofacial deformity is more severe, or-thognathic surgery allows for both goals, facial and oc-clusial.

35 científica dental. vol 12 (special supplement) 2015.

A trait that also determines the indication for thera-peutic extractions and the management of orthodon-tic appliances in these cases is the presence of overbiteor open bite. Extractions tend to increase overbite,which is positive when there is a tendency to open biteand undesirable in patients with a deep bite.

In short, the indication of therapeutic orthodontic ex-tractions is subject to multiple circumstances whichneed to be carefully assessed in the treatment plan. Infact, an identical malocclusion will require a conserva-tive or extractive approach depending precisely on arigorous evaluation of these circumstances. Figure 2outlines this unquestionable reality (Figure 2).

3. Extractions and normalising occlusion

Achieving a class I canine is not an objective to bewaived with a malocclusion; although in exceptionalcircumstances limitations have to be accepted in thisregard, especially in adult patients.

However, although desirable, an Angle class I molarseems inessential for either oral or joint health. Nev-ertheless, the orthodontist usually tries to achieve it.When the patient is in growth, the use of orthopaedic

and functional appliances may contribute to achievingthis desired molar class I, linked to the normalisationof the skeletal relationship. When no residual growthremains, apparatus specifically aimed at the normali-sation of occlusal relationships can be used. There arenumerous molar distalisation devices to treat Class IIteeth7-9 and designs with microscrews for classes II, IIIand open bites, for example10. However, it is often notpossible to achieve the objective of the molar normalocclusion, so extractions need to be resorted to for aclass I canine, and other aesthetic or periodontal goals,for example. As discussed below, these can be plannedaccording to a typical pattern (class II upper premolarsand class III lower ones), or atypical patterns can beused, depending on the circumstances of each case.

4. Extractions and stability of results

One of the key aspects in the success of orthodontictreatment is the stability of long-term results, whichdepends on certain parameters such as the interinci-sive angle, overbite, overjet, appropriate transversedimensions and good periodontal health. There is nogeneral agreement on the impact of therapeutic ex-tractions on the post-treatment stability of each ofthese parameters. One of the advantages that have

been claimed for extractions is that they promotestability, both with overjet and crowding. However,not all authors agree, and some view the possibilitiesof extractions with scepticism and say that, overtime, the lower incisors tend to come together again,regardless of the treatment modality: conservativeor not conservative1. Others point out that the keyissue is the proper location of the teeth relative tothe alveolar bone to maintain stability and periodon-tal health; such that the only thing that would ensurestability would be obtaining a proper interincisiveangle (Figure 3).

One experience shared by orthodontists is that deepoverbite in extraction cases tends to recur more thanin cases where no extraction takes place12.

5. Extractions and intrinsic pathology

Sometimes, in planning the treatment of a malocclu-sion that could be treated without extractions, re-moval of one or more teeth is included simplybecause they have intrinsic pathology or are peri-odontally compromised. If ignored, this condition cancompromise medium- or long-term viability or hinderthe treatment of the malocclusion itself. At othertimes, it is the requirement of an interdisciplinarytreatment where other experts make the decision toextract. The most common pathology in this sense ispartly periodontal (including recessions and severedehiscence) and partly pulpar of an infectious or trau-matic nature. Although morphological abnormalitiesand ectopic eruption are other reasons.

II. PATTERNS OF TEETH TO BE REMOVED INORTHODONTICS

1. Conventional or typical patterns

Table I Shows the most common tooth extractionpatterns used and their main indications for treatingmalocclusions. It is open to multiple qualificationsand exceptions but is basically an indicative scheme.

2. Atypical extractions

In practice, they are very common and, althoughthey may be necessary in patients of all ages, theirfrequency has increased proportionally with the in-corporation of adult orthodontic consultations. Theyhave multiple indications, whether related to thepathology of the extracted tooth itself or unconven-tional malocclusion treatment demands. These ex-tractions are very commonly indicated in adultpatients because, after a certain age, dental mutila-tions, periodontal disease and other conditions thatwill affect the malocclusion treatment plan are aconstant feature in our environment.

Table II contains examples of reasons for unconven-tional or atypical extractions. Particular atypical ex-tractions worth a mention are extraction of a lowerincisor and the first molars, so these are particularlyreferred to from the orthodontic treatment point ofview34,35.

2.1 Extraction of a lower incisor

The frequency of extraction of a lower incisor in or-thodontic clinics is highly variable. Most authors putthe figure at 1.1-6% of all patients treated for mal-occlusion33,36. For example, Proffit in the 1950srecorded the extraction of a lower incisor in 20% ofall malocclusive patients treated with extractions6.

The main indications for extracting a lower incisor are:

- Malocclusion of Angle Class III, light – moderate,with little negative overjet or 0 overjet and de-creased overbite.

This is the fundamental indication, but has the limi-tation of not properly resolving the molar and canineclasses. Extracting a lower incisor involves a reduc-tion in arch length and extrusion and retrusion of theremaining lower incisors; thus increasing the over-bite and overjet. As a result, extraction of a lower in-cisor is only recommended in patients with an AngleClass III malocclusion to resolve mild to moderate an-terior crowding not accompanied by excessive over-bite or large negative overjet.

37 científica dental. vol 12 (special supplement) 2015.

- Malocclusion of Angle Class I or II with Bolton dis-crepancy

The extraction of a lower incisor may be indicated foran increase in the transverse dimension of the lowerincisors (lower discrepancy excess), but also whenthe patient has microdontia, or even agenesis, of theupper ones (upper discrepancy defect). In thesecases, extraction of the lower incisor is consideredover other possible alternatives, as would be strip-ping in the anteroinferior sector for lower discrep-

ancy excess or remodelling of the upper incisors inupper discrepancy defect.

Specifically in class II with Bolton discrepancy, the ex-traction of a lower incisor may be combined with theuse of some distalisation mechanism, or with the ex-traction of two upper bicuspids. Skeletal class II casescan be treated with orthognathic surgery, with theextraction of a lower incisor possibly being part of apresurgical orthodontic treatment plan.

C. Temporomandibular dysfunction with mandibu-lar retroposition

It has been suggested that the removal of a lower in-cisor facilitates the anterior reposition of themandible in patients with TMJ dysfunction and AngleClass I malocclusions without residual growth.

Table III lists the undesirable effects and contraindi-cations of therapeutic extraction of a lower incisor36.

2.2 Extraction of the first molars

The functional significance of the first molars meansthey are rarely suggested for extraction in the con-ventional treatment of malocclusion. However, it isnot uncommon to find first molars affected by severepathologies, such that their removal is consideredwithin an interdisciplinary therapeutic plan. Amongthese pathologies are those that involve significant

destruction of the crown which makes restorativetreatment difficult; particularly extensive decay andsevere enamel defects (isolated hypoplasia and inci-sor-molar syndrome).

Therapeutic removal of first molars may also be con-sidered for eruption disorders, whether due to anky-losis or ectopies of difficult renewal. Extracting thefirst molar with a pathology may be an alternative toa first premolar. When there is no indication to ex-tract premolars, the space left by the removal can beclosed by mesialisation of the second molars andeventually the wisdom teeth. In this case, the finalocclusal position should be considered beforehand,depending on the molars remaining after extraction.

In adult patients, the most common cause of perma-nent molar extraction is periodontal disease of thetooth.

2.3 Extraction of temporary teeth

Temporary teeth extraction is an important prophy-lactic weapon in the development of certain maloc-clusions. However, it is a subject of constant debateand clashes between orthodontists, who indicate theextractions, and paediatric and general dentists whohave to perform them and do not always understandthe need for them. Removing temporary teeth canbe prescribed in a timely and well located mannereither or within the framework of a programmederuption guide.

Specific indications for removal of temporary teethwithout a predetermined pattern are very common;thus, only a few of the most frequent in orthodonticpractice will be outlined.

Firstly, the prevention of permanent teeth impactionmust be mentioned. Important in this area is the re-search by Ericson and Kurol on prophylaxis of the im-paction of palatal maxillary canines in cases oferuptive deviation during the period of mixed denti-tion40-41. These authors showed that the extractionof canines, and eventually the first upper molars, inchildren with deviation of the permanent ones pre-vented their evolution to inclusion in 60-90% of

EXTRACTION PATTERNS INDICATIONS- First 4 bicuspids - Angle class I with:

- Crowding and/or- Biprotrusion and/or- Open bite.

- First 2 upper bicuspids - Angle class II. - First upper bicuspids and second lower - Class II with:

- Overjet and/or- Crowding.

- First 2 lower bicuspid - Angle class III.

cases. This prophylactic extraction procedure of tem-porary canines deserves special consideration in pa-tients with agenesis of the lateral incisors for itsproven association with canines.

Another indication that is frequently suggested is theextraction of temporary second molars in cases of im-paction of the permanent first with infraocclusion. Inthese cases, a distal reduction of the second tempo-rary molar (slicing) can be performed; but if this is notenough, they must be extracted. Usually, the perma-nent molar erupts spontaneously afterwards, but isessential to control the loss of the space required forthe premolar successor.

Finally, mention must be made of the extraction ofthe temporary incisors in the presence of eruptive al-terations of the permanent successors. The etiologyof their impaction is multiple: traumatic events withthe incisor itself or its temporary predecessor; thepresence of obstacles such as supernumerary teeth,odontomas or cysts; or jaw malformations, especiallya cleft palate. In all these cases, when the temporarypredecessor persists, usually removal is indicated, as-sociated or not with other orthodontic or surgicalprocedures28,42,43.

2.4 Guiding eruption

A programme of serial extraction of temporary teethor, even better, a guide to eruption may facilitate the

treatment of malocclusion in temporary or mixeddentition or prevent its full development44.

However, many authors have pointed out the impor-tance of extreme prudence and knowledge of thepathophysiology of the eruption when using thistherapeutic tool. In inexpert hands, significant unde-sirable effects can occur by improperly handling theanchor and maintaining spaces, for example. In short,programmes guiding the eruption are far from beinga rigid solution that apply in all cases; but must betailored to each patient's pathology, ending or not inthe removal of the first bicuspids45.

CONCLUSIONSDental extractions are a highly useful weapon in theprophylaxis and treatment of numerous malocclu-sions. However, their use requires great caution anda thorough understanding of the pathophysiology oferuption, occlusion and facial aesthetics. The ortho-dontist is faced with numerous facial and dental de-formities which cannot be managed by the rigidapplication of treatment plans; and this is particularlyapplicable to tooth extractions. Adult patients oftenhave very complex pathologies which pose manychallenges to the orthodontist, among which are theability to remove or keep teeth and to manage thiswithin an interdisciplinary approach.

UNDESIRABLE EFFECTS - Excessive overjet and overbite.- Reopening of extraction space.- Inadequate posterior occlusion.- Loss of interincisor papilla with appearance of "black triangles".- Mesial inclination of the lower canines.- Excessive lingual inclination of the remaining lower incisors.- Inconsistency of midlines (inevitable).

CONTRAINDICATIONS - Bolton Discrepancy, upper excess.- Increased overbite.- Triangular anatomy of lower incisors, especially with periodontal disease. - Increased overjet.
