“…The changes that the TFBC promoted in maxillary and mandibular components improved significantly the maxillomandibular relationship (Table 3), in accordance with the findings of other studies. 3,19,20 At T2 (Table 4), these significant differences in maxillomandibular relationship were not present, since the maxillomandibular relationship was more accentuated in the experimental group (Table 2) in T1. This likely occurred because the experimental group presented more accentuated Class II characteristics at T1 and presented more Class II correction with treatment, resulting in non-statistically significant differences between groups at T2.…”

Objective: To evaluate the dentoskeletal changes of Class II malocclusion treatment with the Twin Force Bite Corrector (TFBC). Materials and Methods: The sample comprised 86 lateral cephalograms obtained from 43 subjects with Class II division 1 malocclusion; the subjects were divided into two groups. The experimental group comprised 23 patients with a mean initial age of 12.11 years who were treated with the TFBC for a mean period of 2.19 years. The control group included 40 lateral cephalograms from 20 Class II nontreated patients, with an initial mean age of 12.55 years and a mean observation period of 2.19 years. The lateral cephalograms were evaluated before and after orthodontic treatment in group 1 and in the beginning and end of the observation period in group 2. t-Tests were used to compare the initial and final cephalometric characteristics of the groups as well as the amount of change. Results: The experimental group presented greater maxillary growth restriction and mandibular retrusion than the control group, as well as greater maxillomandibular relationship improvement and greater labial tipping of the mandibular incisors. The results also showed a greater decrease in overbite and overjet in the experimental group, and there were no statistically significant differences in the craniofacial growth pattern between groups. Conclusions: The TFBC promotes restriction of anterior maxillary displacement without significant changes in mandibular length and position and improvement of maxillomandibular relationship without changes in facial growth and significant buccal tipping of mandibular incisors. Class II correction with the TFBC occurred primarily as a result of dentoalveolar changes.

We have studied the effective Zfi f,-vertex in the Glashow-Salam-Weinberg theory arising from 1-loop corrections, allowing for arbitrary fermion masses mi in the loop. We use our results to study the branching ratio of the 2-boson decay into two different fermions. This is of phenomenological interest if there exist yet unknown fermions with large mass which could show up at present and designed accelerators only through radiative corrections. Effektiver flavor-andernder schwacher neutraler Strom in der Standard-Theorio und Z-Boson-Zerfall -Inhaltsubersicht. Wir untersuchen den durch 1-loop-Korrekturen entstehenden Zf,f.-Vertex in der Glashow-Salam-Weinberg-Theorie. Im Loop sind beliebige Fermionmassen zugelassen. Die Resultate werden benutzt, um das Verzweigungsverhiiltnis fiir den 2-Boson-Zerfall in zwei unterschiedliche Fermionen zu untersuchen. Diese Zerfallsmode ist von phanomenologischem Interesse bei dcr Suche nach unbekannten Fermionen sehr grol3er Masse, die an derzeitigen und geplanten Beschleunigern nur durch Strahlungskorrekturen nachweisbar sein werden.
