“…Twin-block appliance is a powerful appliance to treat the dental and maxillary protrusion [2,[6][7][8]]. It's effective is not limited in the prevention of the dental and maxillary protrusion, but also has a favorable effect in vertical growth and horizontal growth in the temporomandibular joint region [8].…”

“…TB is improved by lots of studies to treatment these kinds of malocclusions more effectively2-5. In China, TB was improved to be Sagittal Guidance Twin-block appliance (SGTB), which was composed of a mandibular removable component and a bonded maxillary counterpart [2]. Ball clasps between the mandibular incisors and Adams clasps on the first premolars and the first molars offer the retention for the mandibular removable part.…”

“…15,16 However, there are also some potential disadvantages that include proclination of the mandibular incisors and the development of posterior open bites. [17][18][19] Management of distal occlusion with functional appliances can lead to improvement in orofacial function through better muscle adaptation concurrent to the dental and skeletal changes achieved. Ideal timming for orthopaedic treatment for mandibular deficiency is after onset of pubertal growth spurt.…”

“…[ 4 ] Therefore, the patients’ desire for correction is extremely strong, and many Class II patients even choose the second treatment because they are not satisfied with the effect of the previous one. The purpose of clinical correction of the disease is to improve the oral function and profile by correcting the relative relationship between the upper and lower jaw and reducing the coverage of the anterior teeth, [ 8 ] mainly through the straight wire appliance (MBT) combined with anchorage design to achieve this goal. [ 9 ]…”
