What is Twin Blocks in Orthodontics Explained about?
This document describes twin blocks, a system of functional appliances that incorporates upper and lower bite blocks to induce elongation of the jaw during pubertal growth. The blocks fit together at a 70-degree angle to take advantage of functional forces. Treatment begins with the activation of the screw and reduction of the bases, and ends with the correction of overjet, overbite, and distal occlusion. Constant use of the maintenance appliance is required.
