“…The parents' support was presented as a positive experience including nagging. This is in agreement with previous research (9,12,28) especially the study by Gross et al (1985) (28) who tested a reward programme for compliance, which seems to have a positive effect on parentchild relationships. Furthermore, additional outcome reveals the importance of both adolescents and parents participating in the treatment, making clear that the family, and not only the adolescent, is going to be responsible for its success.…”

“…Difficulty in obtaining an accurate preliminary impression may be encountered in patients suffering from movement disorders with orofacial manifestations, 28 for example, Parkinson's disease 29 . Lack of patient cooperation may hinder impression making, which can occur when treating uncooperative children, 30 geriatric patients with special needs, 22 or difficult denture patients 31 . Sectional impressions are indicated for patients with unfavorable oral anatomy, such as in irregularly resorbed edentulous arches, uneven location of teeth, or unusually small or large arches 18 …”

Impression making may be complicated in individuals with limited ability to cooperate with caregivers. An alternative technique for obtaining full-arch casts from sectional preliminary impressions is described. The technique is a modification of the procedure advocated for impression making in subjects with limited mouth opening. A pair of partial stock trays is selected to fit the right and left side of the arch. Two sectional irreversible hydrocolloid impressions are made separately. The first cast is placed into the second impression prior to pouring, to obtain a cast of the complete arch. The procedure was used during the treatment of an uncooperative young patient with Lesch-Nyhan Syndrome and provided a simple and reliable means to obtain the diagnostic cast of the mandibular teeth. It is recommended not only for uncooperative patients, but also for patients with special needs; such as those with anatomical restrictions, functional impairment, and movement disorders.

However, a removal appliance has several advantages over a fixed appliance: it is more economical, simpler to make, and provides more efficient anchorage 11) .…”

A 10-year-old boy was referred to our pediatric dentistry clinic with complaints of anterior crossbite and crowding in the maxillary dentition. Most of his molars were severely decayed and the level of his oral hygiene was very poor. A removable orthodontic appliance was used to correct his anterior crossbite. The use of this appliance enabled us to treat the patient's severely decayed molars and improve the poor level of his oral hygiene simultaneously. Case Report
