Comparison of 2 comprehensive Class II treatment protocols including the bonded Herbst and headgear appliances: A double-blind study of consecutively treated patients at puberty
American Journal of Orthodontics and Dentofacial Orthopedics, 06/22/09
Baccetti T et al. - Class II treatment with either protocol during the pubertal growth spurt induces significant favorable dentoskeletal and occlusal changes. Functional jaw orthopedics had a greater favorable impact on the advancement of the chin. The clinical indications for the preferential use of the Herbst appliance at puberty are a small mandibular angle and mandibular retrusion before treatment. When treated with the BH + FA protocol, these Class II patients have the greatest probability of achieving significant improvement in the profile by advancement of the soft tissues of the chin.
