Abstract
In conclusion I should like to sum up the possible combinations of the above-described appliances. The spring-beam apparatus most generally used allows the use of the ordinary labial arch or of the high labial arch. This latter is used because it is inconspicuous and also for attachment of finger springs; these can also be combined with the deep labial arch. If spring-tube bands are used, all the different kinds of attachments can be employed—either at the same time or one after the other. Therefore it is possible to use the labial spring arch (deep or high) and on the inside the removable beams or the lingual arch or the lingual spring-beam apparatus. At any time of the treatment it is possible to perform each wished-for combination after an impression without being forced to remove the bands. A number of useful combinations are indicated in the detailed work. Finally I want to mention that I have been using these appliances for a long time in my private practice and in the clinics and that I am very well satisfied with them.
