  • Title: Uprighting and distalisation of first permanent maxillary molars in patients with undermining resorption: a case report.
    Author: Jung BA, Becker C, Wehrbein H.
    Journal: Eur J Paediatr Dent; 2011 Jun; 12(2):128-30. PubMed ID: 21668286.
    Abstract:
    This case report describes a treatment method for distalisation and uprighting of first permanent maxillary molars with the aim of preventing complications in the presence of undermining resorption of the second deciduous molar. We present a fixed appliance, which is a compliance-independent and effective alternative to the methods used thus far such as removable plates with distal screws or separating ligatures.
