Abstract
It is suggested that “power” arms, as commonly used with the Straight Wire appliance, may be employed to advantage in the Begg technique. Two case reports are presented in which power arms are used to improve the stationary anchorage of the labial segments, and thus enhance extraction space closure from behind, i.e. “breaking” anchorage. Several other potential uses for power arms in the Begg technique are discussed.
