The Arnoudizer is another excellent option for distalisation of the molars using palatal anchorage. It is extremely versatile as upper molars can be derotated, uprighted and distalised in only 2-3 months using the arm of the device fixed to the occlusal surface of the upper first bicuspid. It can then be converted into a transpalatal bar and used as an anchor for the molars for retraction of the anterior teeth.
