Summary
Custom orthodontic appliances with skeletal anchorage offer an efficient solution for mandibular molar distalization, overcoming limitations of traditional methods. This approach effectively moves molars to correct complex malocclusions.
Area of Science:
- Orthodontics
- Biotechnology
Background:
- Mandibular molar distalization presents significant anatomic and biomechanical challenges in orthodontics.
- Traditional methods like extractions or interproximal reduction have limitations.
- Skeletal anchorage offers a potential alternative for complex orthodontic movements.
