It is of interest to compare two myofunctional appliances (frankal appliance and twin bloc) and two fixed orthodontic appliances (PowerScope and Forsus) in management of class II div 1 malocclusion. A total of 56 Class II division 1 malocclusion patients indicated for treatment with myofunctional appliances and fixed functional appliances were randomized. They were equally divided among frankal appliance (n=14), twin block appliance (n=14), PowerScope (American Orthodontics) (n=14), Forsus (3M Unitek Corp) groups (n=14). Skeletal and dentoalveolar effects of all appliances were compared. SNB increased remarkably by 4.2° in the Twin block group and it was high among all treatment groups. There was a significant decrease in vertical dimensions (SN-GoGn) in the Twin block (p = 0.002). Early treatment of Class II due to mandibular retrusion with Twin block functional appliance is recommended due to its favorable skeletal effect.
比较两种肌功能矫治器(Frankel矫治器和Twin Bloc矫治器)以及两种固定正畸矫治器(PowerScope矫治器和Forsus矫治器)在治疗安氏II类1分类错牙合中的效果很有意义。共有56名适合使用肌功能矫治器和固定功能矫治器治疗的安氏II类1分类错牙合患者被随机分组。他们被平均分为Frankel矫治器组(n = 14)、Twin Bloc矫治器组(n = 14)、PowerScope矫治器组(美国正畸公司,n = 14)、Forsus矫治器组(3M Unitek公司,n = 14)。比较了所有矫治器对骨骼和牙牙槽的影响。Twin Bloc矫治器组的SNB显著增加了4.2°,在所有治疗组中增幅最大。Twin Bloc矫治器组的垂直维度(SN - GoGn)有显著减小(p = 0.002)。由于Twin Bloc功能矫治器对骨骼有良好影响,因此建议对因下颌后缩导致的安氏II类错牙合进行早期治疗。
