Abstract

11 years 7 months old female had a reverse object of anterior teeth and class III molar relationship. Maxillary right and left canines were erupted labially and lower left lateral incisor was congenitally missed. She was treated by rapid palatal expansion and full band technique with extraction of maxillary and mandibular second molars. The following results were obtained. 1. Maxilary arch was expanded. 2. Anterior cross-bite and crowding was corrected. 3. Molar relationship was corrected. 4. Profile was somewhat improved.
