Fundamental function
Interproximal reduction contra angle handpiece (IPR) is the removal of small amounts of outer enamel tooth surface between two adjacent teeth. It is a means to acquire additional space to create ideal tooth alignment. Alternative names include: slenderizing, stripping, enamel reduction, and reproximation.
·Creates space to improve tooth alignment.
·Helps to improve the bite (the way your teeth fit together).
·Can increase the stability of the teeth, so they will retain their position long term.
·Can reduce “black triangles”. This is created by the absence of gum tissue (gingival papilla) between teeth and gives the appearance of a dark space or hole.
·IPR in certain cases may alleviate the need for permanent tooth extractions.
·Note: IPR may also be used in conjunction with tooth extractions for reasons listed above.
·May help to improve the appearance of the teeth, reshaping them for a better esthetic outcome.
Operation
The orthodontist will carefully identify which teeth need IPR. Using a dental handpiece and/or diamond strips (a manual technique for removing enamel), the orthodontist will remove the enamel from the sides of the teeth contacting each other.
Approximately half to a full millimeter of enamel can be reduced between two adjacent teeth, still leaving sufficient enamel for the teeth to retain optimal health. The orthodontist will determine how much reduction is necessary for desired end result.
The teeth may be smoothed and polished. Your orthodontist may recommend a topical fluoride treatment and/or a daily fluoride rinse following the procedure. Generally, there is no discomfort during interproximal reduction because of the minimal amount of enamel being removed.
