The aim of the study was to analyze the effectiveness of treatment of patients using the Twin-Forse apparatus in adulthood. A case of a 25-year-old patient was treated with a retroposition of the lower jaw, distal occlusion of the posterior teeth, sagittal incisal disocclusion, deep incisal disocclusion, narrowing of the deformation of the dental alveolar arches, protrusion of the upper and lower incisors, crowded position of the lower teeth. Fixed orthodontic appliances of the Damon Q system (Ormco, USA) were used. Half a year after the fixation of the bracket system, a Twin-Forse apparatus (Ortho Organizers Inc., USA) was installed. After half a year of wearing, the device was removed, the patient was assigned to wear intermaxillary elastics to achieve maximum fissure-tubercular contacts. It has been found that the use of the Twin-Forse device in adult patients helps to achieve optimal functional and aesthetic results.
