Abstrakt: The biomechanical relationship between the body and teeth suggested that posture imbalance can lead to dentoalveolar malocclusion. A randomized crossover trial was conducted to compare body posture measure using tilt angles of the neck and center of pressure of the malocclusion patients that received vibrotactile biofeedback from the posture trainer device with those who received no feedback. The results showed that the system is associated with quantitative improvements of the body posture in malocclusion patients. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
