Abstract EN
Tongue thrusting and thumb sucking are the most commonly seen oral habits which act as the major etiological factors in the development of dental malocclusion.
This case report describes a fixed habit correcting appliance, Hybrid Habit Correcting Appliance (HHCA), designed to eliminate these habits.
This hybrid appliance is effective in less compliant patients and if desired can be used along with the fixed orthodontic appliance.
Its components can act as mechanical restrainers and muscle retraining devices.
It is also effective in cases with mild posterior crossbites.
