Dr. Sharath Kumar Shetty, Dr. Shravya N, Dr Mahesh Kumar Y
Abstract: Fixed functional appliances also known as "noncompliant Class II correctors" have gained significant ground in the last few years. With them in use, the treatment duration is reduced by 6 months. They are divided into rigid, flexible, and hybrid appliances. Rigid fixed functional appliances restrict the mandibular movements and flexible fixed functional appliances have frequency of breakage to a greater extent. To overcome these drawbacks, hybrid fixed functional (HFF) appliances have come into play. HFF appliances offer the advantages of previous ones, thus eliminating their pitfall. Recent advances have also led to the improvisation of HFF appliances. This review article explains about the Advansync appliance which is modification of herbst appliance.
