  • Title: Use of removable appliances as an adjunct to fixed appliance therapy.
    Author: Turner PJ.
    Journal: Dent Update; 1993 Dec; 20(10):428-32. PubMed ID: 8056092.
    Abstract:
    Although a fixed appliance may ultimately be required to correct a malocclusion, the author gives examples of how the use of a removable appliance initially could simplify the treatment. A removable appliance enables the benefits of growth and development that are occurring in young patients to be enlisted in the treatment, and thereby reduces the overall treatment time.
