- Abstract
The Hybrid Hyrax has now become established worldwide, not only for pure maxillary expansion, but also as part of an early Class III treatment with a face mask or Mentoplate. Conventionally, two mini implants or temporary anchorage devices (TADs) are inserted initially (TADs first). Now, the idea has been presented to place the appliance first and insert the mini implants as a second step (appliance first). For this purpose, a new coupling option using a special thread is presented, which enables the angle-stable coupling of novel mini implants with orthodontic appliances. This new technique for simultaneous palatal expansion and maxillary protraction will be demonstrated using a patient example.
