ABSTRACTObjectives:The purpose of this clinical prospective study was to compare the dentofacial changes produced by the Sabbagh Universal Spring (SUS²) and Forsus FRD appliances in late adolescent patients with Class II malocclusion, and quantify them in comparison with an untreated group.Methods: The study was carried out on 59 patients with skeletal and dental Class II malocclusion due to retrognatic mandible. Among these, 20 were treated with SUS², 20 were treated with FRD, and no treatment was done to 19 subjects as the control group. 36 cephalometric landmarks were identified on each lateral cephalometric radiograph.Results:The effects of both appliances were dentoalveolar and no significant vertical and sagittal skeletal effect on maxilla and mandible was achieved. The retrusion and extrusion of the maxillary incisors as well as the protrusion and intrusion of mandibular incisors were found to be statistically significant in both treatment groups. Soft tissue profile improvement was limited in both treatment groups.Conclusions: Both appliances corrected Class II discrepancies through dentoalveolar changes; however lower incisor proclination was more prominent with the Forsus FRD.

Objective: To assess skeletal, dentoalveolar, and soft-tissue effects of fixed functional appliances (FFAs), alone or in combination with multibracket appliances (comprehensive treatment), on Class II malocclusion in postpubertal patients. Data Sources: Literature survey was conducted using the Medline, SCOPUS, Latin American and Caribbean Health Sciences, and Scientific Electronic Library Online databases and the Cochrane Library, and through a manual search. No restrictions were set regarding the type of fixed appliance, treatment length, or to the cephalometric analysis used. Data extraction was mostly predefined at the protocol stage by 2 authors. Study Selection: Only double-blind randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of Class II skeletal cases treated by any FFA that had assessed specific skeletal, dental, or soft-tissue parameters were included. Data Synthesis: A total of 8 articles qualified for the final analysis. The studies were composed of late-adolescent or adult patients who were at the end of their postpubertal growth period. This meta-analysis included data from 271 subjects (142 Class II patients and 129 untreated individuals) and 8 RCTs, which assessed linear as well as angular cephalometric changes induced by Class II treatment with FFAs. Conclusions: Based on the data available on postpubertal patients, it was concluded that the fixed functional treatment is effective in Class II malocclusion and shows changes in skeletal, dental, as well as soft tissue.

Treatment Alternatives

Class II malocclusion has a high incidence in the population, which may compromise smile aesthetics, occlusion function and stability. Skeletal Class II may affect facial aesthetics and upper airway volume. Class II malocclusion is routinely associated with skeletal Class II condition, having as treatment alternatives the use of Extra Buccal Appliance (EBA) or removable or fixed propulsor appliance. This article describes a case of a patient who did not accept the use of EBA and so it was fitted a Flex Developer propulsor for Class II correction and discussed the advantages and disadvantages of therapeutic alternatives for Class II correction.

Class Ii Division 1

The dentoskeletal characteristics of Class II malocclusion subjects were evaluated using cephalometric radiograph and dental cast of 60 untreated patients. The sample included 30 Class II Division 1 and 30 Class II Division 2 malocclusion patients. The inter-canine, inter-premolar, inter-molar, inter-canine alveolar, inter-premolar alveolar, inter-molar alveolar widths are measured on study models. The result showed statistically significant difference between the groups for mandibular inter-canine width only. The cephalometric analysis revealed that SNB angle was responsible for the skeletal sagittal difference between the two groups except for the position of maxillary incisors. No basic difference in dentoskeletal morphology existed between Class II Division 1 and Class II Division 2 malocclusions.
