A tongue plate is connected to the hyrax through the connecting wire. A tongue sprue wire is provided and soldered to an anterior segment of a premolar band to reinforce the tongue plate. The connecting wire holds the tongue plate in a position to resist a tongue pressure. The physiological tongue forces produced during swallowing are used to move the maxilla in forward, sagittal and vertical directions.
