Brief Summary
The aim of the current study is to evaluate the skeletal, dental, soft tissue, TMJ, and upper airway size changes associated with a new design of twin block compared to the conventional twin block appliance. Additionally, patients' satisfaction with the two designs will be assessed.

Study Arms (2)
conventional twin block
ACTIVE COMPARATORGrowing patients with class II skeletal discrepancy due to mandibular deficiency will be treated with the conventional design of twin block previously introduced by Clark.
Vacuum formed twin block appliance with sagittal blocks
EXPERIMENTALGrowing patients with class II skeletal discrepancy due to mandibular deficiency will be treated with a modified design of twin block formed of vacuum sheets with sagittal blocks.
