3-dimensional finite element analysis of maxillary molar distalization using R-jig with TADs

Effects of Jones Jig Appliance in Maxillary First Molar Distalization

The purpose of this study was to evaluate treatment effects of Jones jig appliance during class-II molar correction with a focus on the magnitude of maxillary first molar distalization, its tipping, extrusion and rotation as well as anchorage loss at premolarincisor unit. A complete set of pre and post distalization records including history, clinical examination, Lateral cephalometric radiogra...

Unilateral Maxillary Molar Distalization Appliance Using an Expansion Screw

Objectives: An appliance to correct unilateral Class II molar relationship was described, the clinical and laboratory procedures for the construction of the appliance were explained. The clinical application for the unilateral molar distalization was illustrated by a case report. Other methods of distalizaton were reviewed and compared with the present appliance. The advantages and disadvantage...

Slow and continuous maxillary expansion, molar rotation, and molar distalization.

Maxillary unilateral molar distalization with sliding mechanics: a preliminary investigation.

Fifteen patients, eight males and seven females with a mean age of 13.32 years, were selected for unilateral molar distalization. Dentally, all presented with a unilateral Class II molar relationship. The subjects were all in the permanent dentition with second molars erupted and with a well aligned lower dental arch. For maxillary molar distalization a new intra-oral appliance was developed, t...
