Correcting a skeletal ClassII malocclusion with full maxillary dental arch distalisation using Infra-zygomatic crest (IZC) bone screw: A case report
Managing a correction of Skeletal Class II malocclusion has remained a challenge to a experience clinician solving this challenge involves surgical and non -surgical methods. The patient centered approach towards non-surgical correction which involves 3-Dimenional innovative tooth movement. Recently the clinician have tried to distalize the entire maxillary dentition by using Bone anchored supportive system which was previously tooth anchored. Bone anchored system nullifies the reciprocal component of force and hence no unwanted dental movements. Use of IZC is one such kind which helps in correcting skeletal Class II malocclusion with distalizing maxillary arch.
