Abstract
The present study reports the effect of treatment with a mandibular lip bumper and maxillary biteplate on tooth movements, occlusion and space conditions in the lower dental arch. The maxillary biteplate was used to eliminate adverse forces of occlusion. The patients selected for the study could, on the basis of a morphological cephalometric analysis, be expected to be of the anterior rotation type.This publication has 0 references indexed in Scilit:
