A practical treatise on the technics and principles of dental orthopedia and prosthetic correction of cleft palate . voluminous evidence presented in these papers, which pertained to published proceedings of pro-minent dental societies, and the historical acts and statements of prominent living dentists, has never been contro-verted, except by bald assertions and untruthful claims unsustained by Ike slightest attempt to produce legitimate evi-dence, is sufficient in itself to place the honor where it belongs. 126 CHAPTER XVI. INTERMAXILLARY AND OCCIPITAL FORCE 127 jaw, and retrusion of those of the other where the full reciprocating activities of theforce can be utilized. When properly applied in this way to the teeth of youths,the correction of malocclusion and facial contours is found to be easily accom-plished in numberless instances that would have been considered at one time im-possible without extraction. Frequently the teeth are moved by this force aloneone-half the width of a cusp, or reciprocally the full width of a premolar which isequivalent to the operation of jumping the bite. Fig. In Figs. 72 and 73, the facial and dental casts on the left show the beginningmalocclusions of four cases in practice whose diagnosis places them in Division 1 ofClass II—retrusion of the lower denture with upper normal or nearly so. It willbe seen in all of these cases that there is a full distal malocclusion of the lower buccalteeth in relation to the upper, with the usual malrelation of the front teeth. On theright are shown the finished cases with the dentures in normal occlusion, and thefacial outlines corrected, the work being mainly accomplished with the intermaxil-lary force in shifting the dentures to a normal occlusion. See also Figs. 173 and174, Chapter XXXI. For the protrusive or retrusive movements of the teeth of one jaw with theintermaxillary force, as explained elsewhere, the force of the reaction should be dis-tributed to the teeth of the opposing jaw
