Are there any studies that show the proportion of the mesialisation effect in the upper jaw and the proportion of the distalisation effect in the lower jaw of the total correction of the Class III?
This is a relatively new approach. We have no studies at this point, but related to the Carriere Class II Motion effect, Professor James McNamara from the University of Michigan and Professor Lorenzo Franchi from the University of Florence are studying our records and measuring them in order to give answers to this. They are tracing our cases to see what is going on, so we will have the results very soon. We can see clinically good and stable occlusion along many years. For example, you could now observe in my lecture several cases that have been out of retention for more than 10 years with a complete stability. But now we need explanations from the experts.
