Abstract

Class II treatment has been largely studied and documented. Nowadays distalization of the upper molars is one of the first choices of treatment, by non patient cooperation systems. In 2004 Carrière L, developed a distalization system able to move the posterior segment (Distalizer®). This device allows correcting the sagital relationship between molars, bicuspid and canines all at the same time. The advantage stands on the shorter period of time of the treatment and its difficulty. However, it is necessary the use of class II elastics so that the system works, and this is where the patient collaboration is required.
