Oral Pathology

 Diphtheritic lesions are caused by Corynebacterium diphtheriae. The hallmark of diphtheria is a tough gray pseudomembrane on mucosal surfaces like the pharynx or oral cavity. Attempting to remove it causes pain and bleeding. Other conditions like ANUG (acute necrotizing ulcerative gingivitis) produce pseudomembranes but are more localized and less gray.

SOLUTION

Intermaxillary anchorage or Baker's Anchorage. This type of anchorage involves using elastics from one jaw to the other, in the form of either Class 2 elastics (moving upper teeth back) where lower molar teeth serve as anchors, or Class 3 elastics (moving lower teeth back) where upper molars serve as anchors.

Intramaxillary anchorage is also used in the form of E-chain, when elastics are used from the back molar teeth to the front teeth in the same jaw to move teeth back of the mouth.
