Abstract

A 17 years old male patient presented with impacted mandibular right canine and partially erupted mandibular left canine, with overjet of 0.5mm and 100% overbite. He was treated with fixed orthodontic treatment and canine disimpaction using skeletal anchorage in maxillary arch to avoid undesirable effects on maxillary dentition. Pre-treatment and post treatment records were taken to evaluate the changes.
