| Abstract: | This prospective study was conducted on 24 North Indian subjects (10 Control and 14 Twin-block) to evaluate the skeletal and dentoalveolar effects of Twin-block appliance in the treatment of Class II division 1 malocclusion. The result of the present study showed that Twin-block is an effective appliance in accelerating mandibular growth. It also helped dramatically in molar correction and overjet reduction in Class II division 1 malocclusion subjects. |
