Cantilever Bite Jumper, or CBJ, is a dental appliance that helps the jaw develop normally and achieve facial balance. Usually, this treatment device is necessary for bringing the lower jaw forward for better alignment.

A Cantilever Bite Jumper (CBJ) is a growth modifying appliance, which is designed to improve the position of the lower jaw and to correct the bite. The CBJ consists of upper and lower frames, which are cemented to the teeth. These frames are joined together by the “arms” which act to hold the lower jaw forward.

2009年3月1日 · Class II correction achieved by the Cantilever Bite Jumper (CBJ) appliance was accomplished by 2.9 mm apical base change, 1.5 mm distal movement of the maxillary molars, and 1.1 mm mesial movement of the mandibular molars.

What is a CBJ? The Cantilever Bite Jumper or CBJ is a growth modifying appliance that is worn to help young jaws develop normally and to help achieve facial balance and harmony. This appliance is fixed in the mouth and is therefore worn 24 hours a day, generally for approximately 12 months, or until the desired result is achieved.

In 1994, Mayes 10 introduced the Cantilever Bite Jumper (CBJ). This appliance consisted of four stainless-steel crowns bonded to maxillary and mandibular first molars associated with a cantilever welded to mandibular first molar crowns, which extended anteriorly to the premolar and canine area, where the mandibular pivot was placed.

Objective: To identify the skeletal, dentoalveolar, and soft tissue changes that occur during Class II correction with the Cantilever Bite Jumper (CBJ). Materials and methods: This prospective cephalometric study was conducted on 26 subjects with Class II division 1 malocclusion treated with the CBJ appliance.

The effects of the Herbst CBJ appliance associated with fixed appliances after the growth peak in Class II malocclusion treatment are correction in molar relationship toward a Class I relationship, correction of the overjet, correction of the overbite, and mandibular incisors’ labial inclination.

The Herbst appliance is an orthodontic appliance used by orthodontists to correct class 2 retrognathic mandible in a growing patient, meaning that the lower jaw is too far back. This is also called bitejumping.
