Lower incisor extraction as an orthodontic treatment option: A case report

Journal Title: IP Indian Journal of Orthodontics and Dentofacial Research - Year 2016, Vol 2, Issue 4

Abstract

Incisor extraction in orthodontics treatment has been one of the options since there are very few patients who are considered for such treatment. Proper and detailed diagnosis should be done so that good results can be obtained. A case report of a 20 year old female is presented who has Class II, Division 1 malocclusion with crowding in the lower arch.
