Description

The piggy back spring is a pressure spring device specifically constructed (Fig. 1) to move teeth apart during orthodontic treatment. The piggy back spring is placed directly in the area of the crowding whilst bypassing one or more brackets. This leads to pressure on the outer teeth in the area of crowding in the levelling phase.
In contrast to traditional pressure springs, the piggy back spring does not support the levelling arch during outward rotation and insertion of mispositioned teeth. It is attached in a few seconds without removing the treatment arch. Brackets that are already in place do not have to be removed.
Six different sizes enable space to be gained for individual malposition and eye tooth to eye tooth distance can be extended. With full compression, the force provided is about 200 cN (progressively reducing).

Indications
– Gaining space with front teeth crowding
– Opening a gap in the area of the lateral teeth
– Outward rotation of teeth
– Straightening of lingually tilted UK eye teeth (CC)
– Mesialisation of anterior lateral teeth
– Distalisation of posterior lateral teeth

Contraindications:
Gap opening in case of dental arch/maxillary arch length discrepancy. Gap opening must not be forced in case of existing dental arch/maxillary arch discrepancy, otherwise there is a risk of the roots moving out of the alveolar bone.

DE: Kontraindikationen für die Huckepackfeder:

Lückenöffnung bei Zahnbogen-/Kieferbogenlängendiskrepanz. Bei bestehender Zahnbogen-/Kieferbogendiskrepanz darf die Lückenöffnung nicht zwangsweise herbeigeführt werden, da sonst die Gefahr besteht, dass die Wurzeln aus dem Alveolarknochen herauswandern.
