Summary
This early study tests a custom-made digital dental device called the Digital Bonded Reverse Twin Block in 21 children aged 8-11 with a mild underbite. The device is designed to gently shift the jaw and teeth into better alignment. Researchers will measure changes in jaw position and dental health, and also ask about the children's quality of life.
