Abstract:
For over a decade, various modified appliances have been described which are placed intraorally to make a treatment successful
independent of patient compliance. Many cases are seen with 2 nd molar buccal crossbite in routine clinical practice, adding
significantly to treatment time. Different methods have been suggested to correct it, but a better method would be to correct it without
extrusion. So in the present article we have modified the transpalatal arch in a way that its middle loop is directed distally with two
additional L-loops directed mesially, E-chain is connected to 2nd molar to correct it during any phase of orthodontic treatment when
mandibular arch is well-aligned.
