Abstract

A23 year-old male with the chief complaint of upper and lower
central gaps in his teeth. Orthodontic evaluation gave a
diagnosis of Angle's Class I malocclusion on Skeletal Pattern 2
with maxillary and mandibular midline diastema, upper and lower anterior spacing, rotated teeth, abnormal frenal attachment, and non-consonant smile. Malocclusion was successfully treated with upper and lower fixed orthodontic appliance therapy. An aesthetic and stable occlusion was achieved at the completion of treatment. Fixed lingual and thermoplastic retainers were used to ensure stability of treatment outcome
