One of the most difficult phases of an orthodontic treatment with extractions is the retraction of the canines. In our practice, we do this retraction to provide space for the alignment of the anterior teeth without their protrusion. Using loops to retract these canines allows for better control than with continuous arches. In the example seen in the video, one of the Bourstone Geometries (Geometry VI) is used as the basis for the retraction with control of angulation of the canines. The loops allow, in addition to angulation control, also the possibility of incorporating anti-rotation and torque.
