procline

动词 v.

英文释义

动词 v.
  1. Of teeth, to lean forward. intransitive
    — In Class II cases the maxillary incisors retrocline and the eruption of teeth in the maxillary buccal segments is directed distally during treatment. In the mandibular arch the lower incisors tend to procline and the teeth in the buccal segments erupt in a more mesial direction.
  2. To cause (teeth) to lean forward. transitive
    — These curves do have a tendency to procline the incisors so the wires are often tied back (e.g. a wire ligature tied from the molar to a ball hook on the archwire between the lateral incisor and canine) to maintain the arch length and minimise incisor proclination.
