Intervention/exposure
Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
2 orthodontic miniscrews are to be placed in the palate of the upper jaw which is joined to an expansion appliance cemented to the patient's upper posterior teeth.
4 orthodontic miniscrews - 2 on each side joined by a plate - will be placed in the lower jaw. The patient will be required to wear class II elastics from the upper appliance to the lower joined miniscrews. This procedure is expected to take approximately 1 hour.
The miniscrews and expansion appliance will be placed at the start of treatment and is expected to stay in the mouth for approximately 9 months. Miniscrews will only be replaced if they fail. Current research literature states a 80-85% success rate for orthodontic miniscrews.
At the end of 9 months of treatment, all miniscrews and the expansion appliance will be removed from the patient

Allocation to intervention
Non-randomised trial
Procedure for enrolling a subject and allocating the treatment (allocation concealment procedures)
Patients will be chosen by Prof Darendeliler, Dr Daniel Tan, Dr Gonzales, Dr Tarraf and Dr Dalci from those that have been referred to the Department of Orthodontics in Sydney Dental Hospital for the correction of their skeletal II malocclusion and which have been placed on the Department’s waiting list.
