Résumé

Contexte : L'appareil orthodontique amovible peut être indiqué dans la prise en charge de la proclination antérieure et surplomb accru, en particulier dans le groupe d'âge le plus jeune. En général, les incisives maxillaires en proclination sont sujettes aux traumatismes chez les jeunes enfants actifs. Cela rend nécessaire une intervention préventive et interceptive rapide. Cette situation est compliquée en cas de traumatisme associé à cette ou ces dents qui nécessiteraient un mouvement orthodontique des dents.
Observations : Le premier cas concerne un garçon de 12 ans qui s'est présenté trois ans auparavant pour la perte de ses deux incisives centrales en raison d'une avulsion traumatique. Le deuxième cas est un garçon de 10 ans qui s'est présenté l'année précédente avec un abcès dento-alvéolaire dû à une fracture sur les incisives maxillaires gauche et droite, respectivement de classe Ellis III et de classe Ellis II. Dans les deux cas, deux procédures de prise en charge innovantes et différentes ont été instaurées, qui combinaient une procédure réparatrice et orthodontique dans le même temps, ce qui a aidé psychologiquement les enfants à l'école. Le premier a gardé l'appareil comme un "arrêtoir" et un dentier, tandis que le second a effectué une restauration dentaire acceptable et continue de recevoir des soins d'orthodontie avec des progrès satisfaisants.
Conclusion : Ces procédures innovantes ont donné de bons résultats. Les patients et les parents ont été très coopératifs et apprécient les résultats.

Abstract
Restorative orthodontic treatment approach in the correction of anterior proclination in special cases (Port Harcourt-Onyeaso Appliance): Two cases report

Background: Removable orthodontic appliance may be indicated in the management of anterior proclination and increased overjet, especially in the younger age group. Generally, proclined maxillary incisors are prone to trauma in young active children. This makes prompt preventive and interceptive intervention very necessary. This condition is complicated in the event of associated trauma to such tooth/ teeth that could require orthodontic tooth movement.
Cases: The first report involves a 12-year-old boy who presented three years ago with loss of his two central incisors due to traumatic avulsion. The second report is a 10- year-old boy who presented a year ago with a dento alveolar abscess in relation to a long standing Ellis class III and class II fractures on the maxillary right and left central incisors, respectively. In both cases two different innovative management procedures were undertaken which combined restorative and orthodontic procedures concurrently, which helped the children psychologically in school. The first has been discharged to continue with the appliance as both a retainer and a denture while the second has completed an acceptable dental restoration and is still receiving orthodontic care with satisfactory progress.
Conclusion: These innovative procedures yielded good results. Both patients and parents were very co-operative and appreciative of the outcomes.
