The current interest in functional appliances in the United States is based on apparent success of one or more modifications of appliances that have been used in Europe for many years. Because a number of authors considered these appliances the universal answer to treatment of malocclusions, many modifications were developed. The history is replete with changes induced by failures as well as successes, resulting in the current approach in Europe to the use of both fixed and removable appliances, separately or in combination, to achieve the best possible result. This historical discourse presents some of the background that is not well known in the United States. It should give the clinician a better understanding of the physiologic bases, as well as the reason for the broad gamut of appliances that have been used at one time or another. The original work of Andresen, Häupl, Petrik, Eschler, Balters, etc. is described, as well as the work of later contributors to the current "state of the art" in functional jaw orthopedics.

The evolution since 1900 of the removable orthodontic appliance is described. The effects upon this evolution of political and economic events, the introduction of new materials and the British approach to orthodontic treatment are discussed. Present opinion favours the increased use of fixed appliances but it seems likely that removable appliances will still be suitable in about half those cases requiring active treatment.
