It typically consists of bands on the upper first molars connected by a wire and an acrylic \u201cbutton\u201d that rests against the palate. It is most commonly used in mixed dentition and early orthodontic treatment to help control molar movement. It is sometimes described as an \u201canchorage appliance,\u201d meaning it helps resist unwanted tooth shifting."}
