A modification of the twin block technique for patients with a deep bite

Twin Block appliances are simple bite blocks which are designed for full time wear. They achieve rapid functional correction of malocclusions by the transmission of favorable occlusal forces to inclined planes which cover the posterior teeth. One of the authors has successfully completed over 600 cases with the Twin Block appliance and has developed certain modifications which aid in the correction of Class II, division 1 deep bite malocclusion.
