Correction of Severe Unilateral Scissor Bite in Growing Class II Patients
Volume 51 : Number 2 : Page 97 : Feb 2018
Unilateral scissor bites can be especially difficult to correct in adolescent high-angle skeletal Class II patients. Drs. Du, Lin, Ma, Wu, and Li demonstrate stable results from an inventive approach involving asymmetrical extractions, miniscrew-anchored elastic traction, and camouflage orthodontic treatment, without orthognathic surgery.
