Opis

The term distalizaiton means, the displacement of a structure to a position farther posterior than that which is accepted at the onset of treatment. Appliance systems that are designed to produce distal movement of first molars and buccal segments have been available from a century. Traditionally extra oral appliances of one type or another have been used for many years. Extraoral traction may be applied to the upper arch in association with fixed or removable appliances, but the objective in all cases is to move the upper molars distally to provide space for alignment of incisors or overjet reduction. However, we the orthodontists of today are fortunate enough to have more intraoral techniques and appliances in our hands to gain space i.e. by distalizing molar.
