Abstract
ABSTRACT Improved superelastic Ti-Ni alloy wire (ISW) was used for the management of a 24-year-old patient presenting with facial asymmetry and maxillary and mandibular anterior dental crowding. After the extraction of teeth #14, #24, #34, #45, ISW leveling was performed to relieve upper and lower anterior crowding. Elastic chain and intermaxillary elastics (IME) were then used to correct the mandibular shift. The correction of facial asymmetry was successfully achieved within 31 months. The outcome was the accomplishment of an esthetic smiling arc that achieved patient satisfaction after the completion of orthodontic treatment.
