Summary

This study compares two dental appliances—a palatal crib and bonded spurs—to treat anterior open bite in children aged 7 to 12. Twenty kids will be randomly assigned to one of the two braces and followed for 6 months. The goal is to see which appliance works better and is more comfortable for children.
