Effects of Twin-Block with expanding device on the upper airway in growing children with skeletal class II malocclusion -a retrospective study based on the consistency of three-dimensional data and two-dimensional data
Abstract:Objectives
Skeletal class II malocclusion is one of the most common malocclusions. Among functional appliances for skeletal class II malocclusion, the Twin-Block appliance with maxillary expander is effective in reposition the mandible forward. In this study, we focused our efforts on investigating the effects of Twin-Block appliances with maxillary expander on the upper airway in growing children with skeletal class II malocclusion by tracing and measuring lateral cephalograms after evaluating the consistenc… Show more
