Charles J. Burstone (April 4, 1928 – February 11, 2015) was an American orthodontist who was notable for his contributions to biomechanics and force-systems in the field of orthodontics. He was well known for co-development of new orthodontic material such as beta titanium , nickel titanium , and long fiber-reinforced composite . [ 1 ]
This method was proposed by Dr. Burstone in 1950s. This segmental arch method used two posterior segments and one anterior segment. [4] A separate continuous intrusion arch is used which was inserted in the auxiliary tube of molars on one end and tied to the anterior segment on the other end.
A lingual arch is an orthodontic device which connects two molars in the upper or lower dental arch. The lower lingual arch (LLA) has an archwire adapted to the lingual side of the lower teeth. In the upper arch the archwire is usually connecting the two molars passing through the palatal vault, and is commonly referred as "Transpalatal Arch ...
Charles J. Burstone and Dr. Goldberg developed the β-Titanium when they combined Molybdenum with pure titanium. [17] They devised this alloy to allow these wires to produce lower biomechanical forces compared to the stainless steel and cobalt-chromium-nickel wires. They have better formability and springback than the stainless steel wires.
In the Anterior-Posterior dimension, appliances such as Class II and Class III are used. Appliances used in transverse dimension are utilized to expand either the maxillary or the mandibular arch. Appliances used in the vertical dimension are used to correct open or deep bite. [3] [4]

This approach was founded upon the iconic "E-Arch" or 'the-arch' shape as well as inter-maxillary elastics. [21] This device was different from any other appliance of its period as it featured a rigid framework to which teeth could be tied effectively in order to recreate an arch form that followed pre-defined dimensions.
