PEARLSAn Alternative Technique for Miniscrew-Assisted Rapid Palatal Expander Fabrication and PlacementBRYAN KEITH BLANKENSHIP DDS, NANDAKUMAR JANAKIRAMAN BDS, MDSThe authors’ vacuformed plastic surgical guide allows a boneborne MARPE to be employed without the extension arms, which reportedly cause some dental expansion. A simple procedure for fabrication and placement of the appliance is described and illustrated. |

CASE REPORTMiniscrew-Supported Fixed-Functional Appliance Therapy in a Skeletal Class II PatientABHISHEK JAIN BDS, MDS, GARIMA JAIN BDS, MDS, MADHULI BHIDE BDS, MDS, PRIYANKA PATEL BDS, MDS, K.M. KELUSKAR BDS, MDS, PhDAn adolescent patient’s Class II, division 1 malocclusion with a mild skeletal component is corrected with Forsus Fatigue Resistant Devices, anchored by bilateral miniscrews between the lower second premolars and first molars. An improved anteroposterior skeletal relationship is demonstrated. |
