Description
Sandeep Shetty and co-authors present a 2024 study on a new device to pull the upper jaw forward. Some children have an upper jaw that sits too far back, a pattern called class III. The patented device, named SAVE, is meant to correct that. The team modeled the device in three dimensions and built a computer model from a patient scan.
The jaw model held a very large number of nodes and elements. Forces of three strengths were applied at a set angle on each side. The model showed the upper jaw moving forward and down, with a counter-clockwise turn. Stress peaked on the top of the frame and near the force module. The authors say the device could speed correction.
