Overview

Fixed flexible push-rod Class II corrector attaching between the maxillary molar region (headgear tube) and the mandibular arch wire or bracket. Delivers continuous interarch force to correct Class II by restricting maxillary growth, distalizing maxillary molars, and proclining mandibular incisors. Compliance-free; documented effects comparable to functional appliances such as the Bionator over shorter treatment time.

Attaches directly to fixed appliance wires/brackets. Flexible push-rod design allows normal jaw function during treatment.
