Used to effectively treat skeletal Class II malocclusions with normal maxillas, retrognathic mandibles, and deep overbites (where the AP correction needed is 4mm or less). The Rick-A-Nator consists of a maxillary anterior inclined plane, placed on a lingual wire that is attached to molar bands. The arch wire can be soldered to the bands or attached with vertical brackets -- to facillitate easy removed for cleaning. The incline is made to hold the mandible in the exact AP position desired, but if the overjet is greater than 4mm, it can be stepped forward in segments as treatment progresses.
