Özet

Background and aim: Myofunctional appliances are commonly used to stimulating positively the masticatory and tongue muscle activity, altering the posture of the mandible to a more forward position. These appliances could be effective in treating the Class II, Division 1 in the mixed dentition stage. The purpose of the clinical study was to evaluate the effects of Multi-P as a prefabricated functional appliance on the dento-skeletal structure in patients with Class II, Division 1 in the mixed dentition stage.
