Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

A new appliance will be used to transfer the tongue force during its physiological activity to advance the nasomaxillary complex; this method will be compared with the traditional method which uses a Facemask appliance.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The above method will be compared with traditional one which uses the Facemask in combination with an intra-oral appliance.

A

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Tongue plate

Intervention Type OTHER

A functional appliance use for maxillary protraction.It has two adams clasp and two C clasp to retained the appliance and long palatal plate in the canine area which cages the tongue and transfer the force of the tongue during physiological activity to the upper arch. It has posterior bite plate and middle screw for maxillary expansion.It should be used all the time except meal time and brushing the teeth,the acrylic appliance makes specifically for the patient.

B

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Facemask

Intervention Type OTHER

An extraoral appliance use for treatment of maxillary deficiency in growing patients.It takes anchorage from chin and forehead, it has removable intraoral appliance with hooks for elastics that exerted a force of 300 gr.It should be used 14 hours a day.
