Description

The Forsus Fatigue Resistant Device (FRD) and Twin Block appliances are used to correct Class IImalocclusions. Both appliances work primarily through mandibular repositioning. Despite theirwidespread use, uncertainties remain about their specific mechanisms of correction andcomparative effectiveness. Our study aimed to evaluate and compare the dentoalveolar, skeletal,and soft tissue changes between the Forsus FRD and Twin Block appliance in the treatment of ClassII malocclusions.
