overview
Class III or pseudo Class III mixed dentition malocclusions are a common orthodontic problem,
for which there are many treatment alternatives. These alternatives range from removable bite
planes, which depend on patient compliance, to fixed appliances with bulbous loops to push
maxillary anteriors forward.
While appearing to be simple, these cases often require many additional months of treatment
and adjustments in order to create overjet or remove the crossbite.
The QuickFix Anterior Corrector is a fixed, simple, streamlined appliance designed to correct
Class III or pseudo Class III cases. Consisting of a .017 x .025 (or a .016 x .025) stainless steel
wire, open stainless steel coil spring and archwire lock, the QuickFix uses the maxillary first
molars as anchorage to push the maxillary anteriors forward. The SideSwipe, the centerpiece
of the QuickFix appliance, fits into the maxillary first molar tube, providing up to 5mm of anterior
movement, without having the discomfort of a distally poking archwire.
Installation

placement (Cont)
and activation
2. Select an .016 x .025, or an .017 x .025 SS wire. Place arch locks about 36mm apart in order to fit the locks distal to lateral incisors. Add a 20mm open
NiTi coil spring. Seat the arch wire.
3.
Lace wire to consolidate the anterior
teeth to prevent space opening.
4.
Slide the arch lock distally along the
arch wire to compress the coil spring.
Lock the screws. Compress the spring
to the anterior of the 2nd bicuspid.
The QuickFix produces rapid correction in four months or less, while providing superior comfort
and simplicity for the patient.
case selection
The QuickFix is effective in treating most Class III, pseudo Class III and anterior crossbite cases.
It can also be used in any case where it is necessary to create space for erupting canines and
premolars, or where positive overjet is required.

Installation
and activation
1.
Place the Side Swipe into the mesial end of
the main arch slot of a bonded or banded
buccal tube. Bond patient with brackets on
upper 2-2. Please note that there are right
and left Side Swipe parts. When placed
properly, the Side Swipe will extend buccally
off of the buccal tube.
5. Cut the distal end of the wire flush
to the distal end of the regular molar
tube, NOT the SideSwipe tube. Tuck
the distal end of the wire lingually and
behind the buccal tube.
