Claim 7:
8. The apparatus of claim 1, comprising:
a third arm coupled to the adjustment-drive mechanism of the apparatus body and attachable to a second molar tooth in the upper dental arch; and
a fourth arm coupled to the apparatus body and attachable to a second non-molar tooth of the upper dental arch,
wherein the apparatus body is configured to be positioned proximate a roof of the mouth,
wherein the third arm is configured to transfer a force onto the second molar tooth when the adjustment-drive mechanism is actuated to cause movement of the second molar tooth in the upper dental arch in the direction determined by actuation of the adjustment-drive mechanism, and
wherein the fourth arm is configured with the apparatus body to be stabilized by the anchorage device to reduce potential force applied to the fourth non-molar tooth to prevent movement of the fourth non-molar tooth in the upper dental arch.
