Three-dimensional evaluation of maxillary dentoalveolar changes and airway space after distalization in adults.

CONCLUSIONS: The application of the MCPP resulted in significant total arch distalization without a significant effect on the transverse dimensions or changes in the oropharynx airway space. The MCPP can be considered a viable treatment option for patients with Class II malocclusion.
