Bone Remodeling in Adults: Treatment of an Adult Skeletal Class II, Division 2 Patient Using a Modified Bionator II Appliance.

Revision ofpublished facts about bone remodeling and re-evaluation ofpreconceptions about bony changes provide a renewed perspective on clinical decision-making in treatment options for adults. Bionator II appliances have been successfully used to treat Class II malocclusions in growing patients. In non-growing patients, however, these appliances have been mostly used as retainers. In this paper, a modified Bionator II is used to treat a Class II Division 2 malocclusion in an adult.
