Time of maxillary molar distalization with non-compliance intraoral distalizing appliances: a meta-analysis.

CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS: Correction of a half-to-full cusp Class II molar relationship with intraoral distalizers can be achieved in 8.34 months, and this distalization time may not be affected by the kind of anchorage used. REGISTRATION: The protocol for this systematic review was based on the Cochrane Handbook for Systematic Reviews of Interventions 5.1.0 and was registered at PROSPERO database (http://www.crd.york.ac.uk/PROSPERO/display_record.php?ID=CRD42017068737).
