It was at this point in theoperation that the casts shown in Fig. 202were made. The regulating apparatus was now changedfor the more delicately constructed andless unsightly retaining appliance. (See , Chapter LIV.) When assured thatthe positions of the extruded buccal teeth werepermanent, the crowns were removed fromthe first molars and replaced with bandsbearing hooks for the direct applicationof intermaxillary elastics, which finally extruded these teeth to the new planeof occlusion as in the regular cases of close-bite malocclusion.

Another case which came for treatment was far more pronounced than any caseof bimaxillary infra-occlusion that has fallen under the authors observation. The relative position of the models shown inFig. 203 were photographed while articu-lated on the wax bite which produced theproper facial outlines. In other words,the jaws required to be opened that muchto produce the best facial effect. Anappointment was then made with thepatient for the facial cast, but very muchto the authors regret, she did not returnfor it. It is hoped that she fell into thehands of some orthodontist who will fully appreciate the condition, and pursuethe proper treatment. When the jaws were closed in this case, the mandible carried the lower labialteeth in front of the upper, on the same principle that the closure of the jaws of anedentu
