Abstract
There has been increase in the treatment modalities for non-surgical Class II malocclusion. This has resulted in orthodontists becoming more vigilant with extraction treatment plans and exploring possible non-extraction treatment approaches. Maxillary molar distalization is one such method. The maxillary molar is distalized to create space and helps in solving the malocclusionMany appliance were used for the distalization of molars over the period of time. Both intra-oral and extra-oral methods are present. The extra oral appliance includes headgear and heavy elastics; whereas intra oral appliance include distal jet, jones jigs, pendulum appliance, k-loop, fixed functional appliances, magnets, ACCO appliance and use of TAD’s. Thus the use of IZC implants has been effective in distalization of molars.
