II급 부정교합 비발치 치료 시, 특히 유구치의 조기탈락으로 인해 소구치 공간이 상실된 경우 상악 대구치의 원심이동이 필요하게 된다. Jones jig 장치는 환자의 협조가 필요치 않은 구내장치 중 하나로 효과적인 구치 원심이동을 이룰 수 있다. 그러나 고정원의 상실로 인한 부작용이 나타날 수 있으므로 장치 조정과 환자의 선택에 신중을 기해야 한다. 본 증례에서는 Jones jig 장치로 효과적인 구치 원심이동과 더불어 elastic thread를 사용하여 구개측으로 맹출한 소구치의 치열궁 내 배열을 가능하게 하는 부가적인 장점을 경험하였기에 보고하는 바이다.

Early loss of the primary maxillary second molar can lead to complications in which mesial drift of the adjacent first molar (M1) can disturb eruption of the succedaneous second premolar (P2). This study reports two cases of space loss for P2 caused by early exfoliation of its predecessor. After the eruption of the first premolar, the Jones jig appliance was used to distalize M1 and regain space for the eruption of P2. The appliance was further utilized to align the palatally erupted P2 into the dental arch. In both cases, the space and corrected position of P2 were well maintained. Early exfoliation of the primary second molar caused by mesial encroachment of M1 is a common phenomenon, and pediatric dentists should attend to this during routine examinations. An appropriate intervention should be initiated when the primary second molar is lost during the mixed dentition period. If used with careful anchorage control, the Jones jig appliance can effectively resolve this problem.

The first permanent molar takes important place in the occlusion. Malposition of the lower first molar is frequently due to mesial migration, which is occurred by early exfoliation of the second deciduous molar or proximal caries of deciduous teeth. Above things happen without any consideration of space maintainer, prompt measures for space regaining have to be started. Especially in the case with early loss of the second deciduous molar, it has been said that there is no suitable appliance for maintaining the space before the eruption of the permanent first molar. In distalizing the upper first molar, headgears have been routinely used, which its result was definitely depended on cooperation of the patients. Nowadays, appliances such as pendulum appliances, K-loop, magnets, which can be used without cooperation of the patients, are introduced. Jones Jig, one of the molar distalizing appliances, was used on the patients who visited department of pediatric dentistry in Seoul National University Dental Hospital complaining of no eruption space for the lower second bicuspid. Either removable splint or lingal arch was used as the anchorage. Jones Jig was favorably used in the lower molar, where vestibule is shallow, and this is a case report on the satisfactory result thereof.
