Abstract
This paper concerns orthodontic treatment of a 11-year-old female having an Angle Class III malocclusion with incisor edge-to-edge occlusion, a skeletal Class III jaw base relationship and a normal mandibular plane angle. When she was 13 years old, the mandibular third molars were extracted and the remaining mandibular molars were distalized. Good occlusion and facial esthetics were achieved. These results have been maintained for 4 years following completion of active treatment.
