Abstract
Objective: the aim of this study was to evaluate the efficiency of a new magnetic habit reminder in cessation of thumb sucking habit and correction of Anterior open bite. Material and Methods: This was a prospective clinical trial. The sample consisted of 20 subjects (7 boys and 13 girls) between the age of 5-12 years. Patients were eligible for this study if they had a thumb sucking habit with anterior open bite. Whereas the exclusion criteria included subjects with a history of previous orthodontic treatment, systemic diseases, and/or presence of any clefts. The appliance is a custom made fixed, removable appliance. It consists of two parts (intraoral and extraoral parts) enclosing two poles of gold coated neodymium and iron boron magnets. After insertion of the appliances, the participants were recalled every 4 weeks. At the end of the 6 th month of this study, the appliances were removed, and post-treatment records were taken.
