Abstract
The orthodontist of today faces the herculian task in getting kids to wear myofunctional appliances. Even the Twin-Block, which is claimed to be one of the most patient friendly appliances, is not so easily accepted by the growing child of the 21 st century. An innovative modification of the Twin-Block called Twin-Star is hereby presented. Compared with the traditionally constructed Twin-Block, the Twin-Star proves to be esthetically superior, with a higher level of comfort and is less bulky (as it is palate free) and hence easily accepted by the patient. It is a boon to the orthodontist too as it can be made in a single sitting by the orthodontist himself.
