Comparison of dentoskeletal and soft tissue effects of Class II malocclusion treatment with Jones Jig appliance and with maxillary first premolar extractions

Abstract: Objective: The aim of this study was to compare the cephalometric changes in Class II division 1 malocclusion patients treated with Jones Jig appliance or with maxillary first premolar extractions. Methods: The sample consisted of 88 lateral cephalograms of 44 patients, divided into two groups. Group 1 consisted of 21 patients treated with Jones Jig appliance, with a mean initial age of 12.88 ± 1.23 years and final mean age of 17.18 ± 1.37 years, and a mean treatment time of 4.29 years. Group 2 comprised 23 … Show more

“…However, because of the over-simplified and omitted measurement details in malocclusion research, clinical applications for diagnosing all types of malocclusion are inadequate 6 . Hence, in addition to comparing individual measurements with a normal image, many clinicians also evaluate anatomical patterns, including soft tissue 7 .…”

“…4 Though, extraction treatment has shown to be detrimental to facial profile and overbite, and strong arguments are being made against the use of this protocol 5 -although existing scientific literature disavows these claims. [6][7][8][9] Treatment by both fixed and removable functional appliances is effective in correcting the Class II malocclusion. 10 The masking of underlying skeletal discrepancy by functional treatment is mainly due to transient rather than additional bony growth.…”
