يتطلب نجاح المعالجة التقويمية تحقيق الكمال الجمالي و الوظيفي للمركب القحفي الوجهي، هدف البحث الحالي إلى دراسة تغيرات بروفيل الأنسجة اللينة الناجمة عن معالجة الصنف الّثاني الهيكلي باستخدام الشد المطاطي المعتمد على صفيحات الإرساء الهيكلي، و ذلك مقارنة بالتغيرات الناجمة عن استخدام الشد المطاطي العادي - صنف ثانٍ-.
Orthodontic treatment is considered successful only if optimal esthetic and
function are achieved.The objective of this study was to compare facial soft tissue profile changes
produced by a new technique (elastic forces based on skeletal anchorage mini-plates) with changes
produced by conventional class-II elastic forces.
