Abstract

Various treatment strategies are adopted to correct a Class II malocclusion depending on the age, the amount of remaining growth and severity of malocclusion. Single arch extraction of the lowers is rarely done in a Class II malocclusion. The following case report describes an alternate treatment approach of an adolescent Class II patient treated with a combination of headgear, fixed functional appliance (forsus), and single arch extraction only in the lower arch. The case was finished in a Class III molar and a Class I canine relationship. The results were stable in 3 years follow-up.
