Abstract
It is very important for lingual orthodontic treatment to determine the setup prescription based on the diagnosis and treatment plan. If the prescription is appropriate, simpler, smoother and more efficient, tooth movement is possible. Therefore, I would like to introduce a method and prescription for fabricating a setup that incorporates an overcorrection for sliding mechanics using the straight wire method. In order to fabricate an accurate setup, it is desirable to determine the one jaw first (i.e., the side where treatment is to be started). The torque value of the central incisor in the setup is calculated as follows. In this paper, we report the numerical values, calculation methods, and set-up fabrication procedures for the setup models through actual cases.
