Distal screw appliances effectively move upper teeth backward, offering a solution for Class II deep bite malocclusion when extractions are not preferred. This method minimizes anchorage loss during orthodontic treatment.

Area of Science:

  • Orthodontics
  • Dental Materials Science

Background:

  • Distalizing upper molars addresses Class II deep bite malocclusion with flat facial profiles.
  • It's a viable alternative when patients refuse extraction-based treatment.

Observation:

  • Two case reports detail upper buccal segment distalization using modified distal jet appliances and palatal miniscrews.
  • Techniques involved a Nance button anchored by a miniscrew, with variations in plate embedding for optimal screw placement.

Findings:

  • The modified distal screw appliance successfully achieved tooth distalization.
  • Minimal to no anchorage loss was observed during the treatment.

Implications:

  • This appliance offers an effective method for managing complex malocclusions.
