Summary: | This case report evaluates the management of a Bimaxillary Dentoalveolar protrusion with a Class I malocclusion in a male patient with extraction of 1 premolars for correction of the prognathic profile of the patient. Clinical and cephalometric evaluation revealed skeletal Class I malocclusion with crowding with a convex facial profile, a Horizontal growth pattern, potentially incompetent lips, a posterior divergent face, average overjet and overbite. Following fixed orthodontic treatment by removal of 1 premolars in the upper and lower arch with retraction of anterior segment , a marked improvement in patient's smile, facial profile and occlusion was achieved and there was a remarkable increase in the patient's confidence and quality of life The profile changes and treatment results were demonstrated with proper case selection and good patient cooperation with Fixed appliance therapy. |
