The use of J hook and high pull head-

has been advocated for the treatment of
deepbite. The amount of force delivered to
the anterior teeth are substantial and may
ly
result in severe resorption of the roots of the

anterior teeth. The forces delivered by the
headgear are also intermittent and the cor-
rection of deep overbite is less efficient in

intermittent forces than the use of continu-
