Abstract

88 children with a class II/1 malocclusion were analyzed cephalometrically concerning dental and skeletal changes through a period of approximately 10 years. 50 patients were treated with function regulators and 38 cases served as a control group. At the beginning, there were no significant differences between the groups studied but in the end, the patients at the age of approximately 17 treated with function regulators showed a stronger mandibular advancement of 4-4.5 mm.
