In treatment of class II cases the palatal plate is a highly effective appliance, which can be easily placed and managed by orthodontists. Scientific evidence demonstrated that the application of Modified C-Palatal Plate (MCPP) resulted in successful treatment outcomes by efficient molar distalization with a near-bodily movement. A creative and innovative approach for Class II correction using MCPP will be discussed including biomechanics and practical guidelines. Clinical pearls and a simple management of MCPP including step-by-step placement procedures with use of a jig will be presented.
Learning Objectives:
Recognize the indications of the modified C-palatal plate (MCPP) in class II corrections.
Illustrate the step-by-step chair-side procedures required to incorporate the MCPP in orthodontic practices.
Recognize the pros and cons of the MCPP and manage maxillary distalization aided by the MCPP with clinical excellence.
