Abstract

The article presents a case report of a teen age girl with Class II Division 2 malocclusion with deep over bite. The case was treated on non-extraction basis using 0.018 pre-adjusted edgewise appliance with anterior bite plate (monobloc) to correct deep bite and forward placement of the mandible. Use of Class II elastics helped to achieve Class I canine and molar retention. Treatment was completed in 22 months with good occlusion and facial esthetics.
