Yeah, I think you should go to a dental bookstore and buy some decent textbooks. You will need them later in your practice.
Nance appliance: 2 upper molar bands with acrylic button that sits in the middle of the palate. It helps prevent mesial drifting of # 3 and 14 when #A and J are prematurely extracted. It is also commonly used for orthodontic anchorage.
Lingual arch: 2 lower molar bands connecting to a lingual bar. It is used to prevent mesial drifting of # 19 and 30 when both K and T are prematurely extracted. It is also used for orthodontic anchorage.
Band and Loop: One molar band with an extension arm touching the distal of primary 1st molar. It is a unilateral appliance that helps preserve the leeway space (or e space) when only one primary 2nd molar (A, J, K, or T) is prematurely extracted.
Distal Shoe appliance: one band (on the primary 1st molar) with distal extension arm and V-shape guide plane. It is also a unilateral appliance that helps guide the unerupted permanent 1st molar to erupt properly. It is used when primary 2nd molar is extracted and the permanent 1st molar has not erupted.
