title: Distalization of maxillary molars with Modified Greenfield Appliance and Modified Nance Appliance as applied to specific case.
abstract: This article describes an efficient method for distalizing maxillary molars using fixed intra-arch Nickel Titanium open coil spring loaded appliance--the Modified Greenfield Appliance. After adequate space has been created, the Modified Nance Anchorage Appliance is cemented to prevent any loss of the gained space. The author's Case Study guides the reader step by step to a successful result of the difficult orthodontic case.
