- Abstract
The article presents a study which investigates the proportion of skeletal/dentoalveolar components for correction of Class II malocclusion in relation to the pubertal growth peak (PGP) in patients who were treated with the mandibular advancement locking unit (MALU) appliance. The retrospective study of 27 orthodontic patients was conducted in which it analyzed pretreatment (T1) and posttreatment (T2) lateral cephalograms. The results showed no significant differences between groups.
