Summary

Bimaxillary protrusion are common in Malaysia due to the prevalence in the two biggest races (Malay and Chinese). However, evidence for treatment methods and outcomes for bimaxillary protrusion patients are scarce. The need for high anchorage in bimaxillary protrusion cases also makes them perfect candidates for a study on the effectiveness of different anchorage methods commonly used in treatment of bimaxillary protrusion cases. The soft tissue outcomes from the use of these different methods are also our area of interest. Hence, the investigators aim is to prove that molar block anchorage similarly effective and has the same outcome as using other conventional auxiliary anchorage such as TPA and Nance button in treating patients with bimaxillary protrusion.

Conditions

DEVICE

transpalatal arch group

transpalatal arch is a 1.0 mm stainless steel wire connecting the upper permanent first molar, with a U loop pointing posteriorly, soldered to the palatal side of the molar bands.

DEVICE

Nance button

Nance button is a 1.0mm stainless steel wire connecting the upper permanent first molar, with a Nance button incorporated in the middle of the wire, soldered to the palatal side of the molar bands
