For correction of Class II malocclusion many Class II corrector appliances are available in the market. Fixed functional appliances like Powerscope and Advanced sync have requirement of shims for further activation of these appliances. Sometime all available shims (provided with appliance) are used or some shims are lost but still activation is required. In this scenario we have to order new shims, which are costly and time consuming. Fabricated UECS surpasses these difficulties and can be used for further activation of these fixed functional appliances.
Keywords: Class II corrector, Fixed functional appliance, Universal Economic Crimpable Shims, Powerscope.
