Trainer system appliances in early treatment of malocclusions
2012
Orthodontics is dental specialty focused on preventing and treating
morphological and functional irregularities of orofacial system in order to
establish adequate function of mastication apparatus, good occlusion and
pleasant facial appearance. It has been shown that early treatment of
orthodontic anomalies during the period of children’s growth is very
important. The purpose of early orthodontic treatment is to eliminate or
modify deviant skeletal growth and to stimulate adequate dentoalveolar and
skeletal development. As known, the treatment of malocclusions should begin
in primary or early mixed dentition, since the status of primary dentition
has profound effect on the development of permanent dentition. Functional
orthodontic appliances are most commonly used in early orthodontic treatment.
The aim of this study was to describe a new prefabricated polyurethane
myo-functional appliance clinically proved to be very effective.
