    Reverse Pull Headgear Application Reverse Pull Headgear Application

    Uploaded by

    Hwei Ern
    The document discusses reverse pull headgear application for correcting malocclusions. It notes that the upper and lower teeth and upper bony base can be reliably influenced, but the lower bony base is difficult to control predictably. It also recommends myofunctional therapy and retaining corrected positioning for 3-4 years minimum. Several studies on the skeletal effects of early Class III treatment with maxillary expansion and facemask therapy are referenced.

    Your patient consists of upper and lower teeth and an upper and lower
    bony base of the arch . What can we really influence and how ?
    Distal Mesial
    CHG, hphg, zyg.lig. Upper bony base RHG
    Reverse Pull Headgear Application CHG,hphg, coils Upper Teeth RHG,elastics,coils,chain
    Coil (skeletal anchorage) Lower Teeth RHG, elastics, coil, chain
    0 Lower bony base 0

    Note : we´re good in controlling upper+ lower teeth and the upper bony
    base, but we don´t have predictable/reliable tools for the lower bony base
