  • Title: Skeletal and dental modifications produced by the Bionator III appliance.
    Author: Garattini G, Levrini L, Crozzoli P, Levrini A.
    Journal: Am J Orthod Dentofacial Orthop; 1998 Jul; 114(1):40-4. PubMed ID: 9674678.
    Abstract:
    The therapeutic results of a functional orthopedic treatment with a Balters' Bionator III appliance were evaluated. The sample group included 39 white growing subjects with a dentoskeletal Class III malocclusion. A 2-year study compared results with a control group. The results showed that the Bionator III is effective, especially when the malocclusion is mainly the result of a midfacial deficiency and when there is a hypodivergent growth pattern.
