17
New cards

goal of cervical and high pull headgear

20
New cards

intrusive; distalizing

21
New cards

high pull headgear exerts force ____ occlusal plane and help treats ______ growers (long face)

above; vertical

22
New cards

cervical pull headgear causes ____ force to increase lower facial higher and has a ____ effect on molars

extrusive; distalizing

23
New cards

cervical pull headgear exerts force ___ occlusal plane and txs pts that are ____ growers (short face/deep bite)

below; horizontal

24
New cards

fixed appliances used to tx class II

25
New cards

herbst and AMRA have _____ effect on mandibular incisors and cause ___ of maxillary molars

proclined; intrusion

26
New cards

herbst/MARA position the mandible _____ and restrict _____ growth

forward; maxilla

27

29
New cards

how many hrs per day should a pt wear chin cup?

30
New cards

how long should a pt wear a chin cup?

until growth is completed

31
New cards

three basic components to reverse pull face mask

34
New cards

tx protocol for reverse pull face mask

underdeveloped maxilla

36
New cards

three effects of FR III

- forward movement of maxilla - downward and backward redirection of mandibular growth - lingual tipping of lower incisors

37
New cards

where are class III elastics placed?
