Abstract
Retrognathic mandible is the most common feature in growing children with skeletal Class II malocclusion. This does not self-correct with growth. Functional appliances are known to exert beneficial effects to improve this skeletal pattern. Among several removable functional appliances, Twin Block is the most preferred. Twin Blocks are designed for full-time wear such that maximum benefit from functional forces can be obtained. The maxillary and mandibular bite blocks occlude at a 70° angle on complete closure. It is important to angulate the inclines at exactly 70°, as an increase in this angulation will require a conscious effort from the patient. Incline Correct is designed to accurately measure and construct inclines at 70° to the occlusal plane.
