Summary

This study tested a dental appliance to correct underbite (Class III malocclusion) in 36 children aged 7 to 12. The treatment used a fixed inclined plane on the lower teeth and special brackets on the upper front teeth to encourage proper jaw growth and bite alignment. After 6 months, success was measured by achieving a normal overbite and molar relationship, aiming to avoid future surgery.
