Abstract

The palate has been reported to be a suitable skeletal anchorage site in adolescents and adults. This article introduces new treatment modalities for correction of sagittal discrepancies by molar protraction and distalization with a modified palatal anchorage plate appliance. The effectiveness and versatility of this method are demonstrated in 2 adolescent patients.
