Fig. 2 Case #1 The subject (Fig. 1) presented with a Class I dental relationship over a high-angle Class II skeletal base, with proclined and procumbent incisors (Fig. 2). The lips were protrusive, anterior to E-plane (Fig. 3), with a relative lack of pogonion projection and facial balance. Treatment objectives were to reduce protrusion, improve facial balance and idealize overjet and overbite. Because the retraction need was greater in the upper arch compared with the lower, upper first and lower second premolars were extracted. The 6s and 7s were banded, and the 5-5 were bonded with .022 MBT brackets (Victory Series, 3M Unitek). Alignment was initiated with .014, .018 and 19x25 NiTi (Figs. 5 and 6). Space closure was initiated in 19x25 stainless steel on the lower arch (sliding mechanics), and a 19x25 TMA closing loop in a continuous arch wire on the upper (Fig. 7). The upper arch wire was differentially Fig. 3 Fig. 4 Fig. 5 Fig. 6 Fig. 1 Fig. 7 orthotown.com \\ JUNE 2018 31http://www.orthotown.com
