Effect of early treatment on stability of occlusion in patients with Class II malocclusion.

Introduction: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of early treatment on the stability of occlusion in patients with Class II malocclusions. The peer assessment rating (PAR) index was used to evaluate changes in occlusion after treatment of subjects treated in 1 phase or 2 phases. This study was a prospective, randomized, controlled clinical trial.

Effectiveness of early treatment of Class II malocclusion.

The purpose of this study was to examine and report the effectiveness of early treatment with the headgear/biteplate and the bionator in patients with Class II malocclusion regardless of the mechanism of correction and to compare early-treatment results with changes over a similar time period in an observation group. The role of factors such as compliance was examined to determine their contribution to effective treatment. The experimental design was a prospective, longitudinal, randomized controlled trial.
