Abstract EN

The asymmetrical intra-arch relationship in Class II subdivision malocclusion poses challenges in the treatment planning and mechanotherapy of such cases.

This case report demonstrates a treatment technique engaging unilateral extraction of a maxillary first molar and Begg fixed appliances.

The outcome stability and the enhancing effect on the eruption of the third molar in the extraction segment were confirmed by a 4-year follow-up examination.
