- Abstract
- Traction of impacted tooth often requires patient compliance to place elastics to surgically exposed impacted tooth. It can be very difficult and time-consuming. The aim of this article was to describe an impacted tooth tractor, Moon's appliance, which was modified from the Nance holding arch appliance. Moon's appliance eliminates patient compliance and generates a light continuous force. We achieved the desired treatment results for impacted tooth using this appliance. This new fixed appliance can be a reasonable alternative to conventional appliances.
