When correcting a Class II malocclusion, an orthodontist is often dependent on patients’ cooperation. If cooperation is bad, it is difficult to achieve the preset treatment goals. Appliances have been developed to reduce the necessity of patient cooperation. Therapy with these kinds of appliances is called non-compliance therapy. By using this kind of therapy, a greater control over the treatment lies within the hands of the orthodontist. By improving the control over the treatment, results can be improved. Besides a case report, theory behind these appliances, biomechanics and a couple of appliances are discussed in this article. |
