ABSTRACT:
A molar distalizing appliance for distalizing the first and/or second molars into a normal anterior/posterior relationship with the opposing teeth, which is cantileverly mounted from the first molar and includes a spring means activated by a connection to an anchoring tooth such as a first or second bicuspid or a deciduous molar as a tooth mesial to the molar. The distal end of the appliance is formed to mount in a stabilized position on the molar and to extend mesially along the mesially positioned teeth to a point that permits development of a light continuous force from the spring sufficient to bodily move the first and/or second molars distally from the bicuspid.
