First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated May 14, 2026 · Updated 31 times

Summary

This study tested three different treatments for children aged 9-12 with a condition called Class III malocclusion, where the lower jaw sticks out too far. The treatments used special braces, face masks, or chin cups to help move the jaw into a better position. Results showed that each method works differently—some are better at moving the upper jaw forward, while others help reposition the lower jaw. This helps doctors pick the right treatment for each child.
