Amalgamation of Forsus spring module and MSE for distalization : A novel hybrid approach
Molar distalization is a commonly employed method for gaining space in the treatment of class II malocclusion. Several approaches are employed in molar distalization, however, it was accompanied with few unwanted effects. To overcome these, a novel hybrid approach is used the Maxillary Skeletal Expander (MSE) and Forsus spring module for molar distalization in class II malocclusion treatment. This method aims to simplify procedures and enhance clinical outcomes by effectively transitioning patients from class II to class I occlusion.
