Article Synopsis
- - This study assessed the effectiveness of bone anchored maxillary protraction (BAMP) in treating class III skeletal malocclusion in children (ages 11-14) compared to a control group receiving no treatment, focusing on surgery necessity, dental changes, and psychological effects.
- - Conducted as a randomized controlled trial in six UK hospitals, 57 participants were divided into two groups: 28 received BAMP treatment, while 29 were in the no-treatment control group; measurements were taken at multiple points over 3 years.
- - Results showed significant improvements in skeletal and dental measures for the BAMP group at the 18-month mark, with a lower percentage of participants in this group feeling they needed surgery at the 3-year
Objective: To evaluate whether delaying treatment with a twin block appliance affects treatment outcomes, in terms of skeletal and dental change and psychological disadvantage.
Design: Multicentre, two-arm parallel randomised controlled trial.
Setting: Three UK hospital orthodontic units.
