Orthodontic management of Class I malocclusion with severe crowding by extraction of four premolars: A case report
Keywords:
dental crowding, premolar extraction, orthodontic treatmentAbstract
Patients may seek orthodontic treatment for a variety of reasons, such as dental crowding, which can be associated to the dental arch's length and width, the mesiodistal tooth's diameter, and the proportions of the teeth. Case Report: An 11-year-old girl Samriddhi Awasthi came to the department of Orthodontics & Dentofacial Orthopedics with the chief complaint of irregular teeth. The intraoral & extraoral inspection observed competent lips, convex profile with severe crowding. The objectives proposed in the treatment plan were satisfactorily corrected, such as severe dental crowding. Successful finishing of a case with well aligned upper& lower arches, obtained proper overjet and overbite and improved soft tissue profile. The results obtained in the present study highlight that premolar extractions are an adequate option in cases of severe dental crowding
