Abstract

Melancholy with dento-facial appearance is the main reason for seeking orthodontic treatment. Growth modification is difficult to achieve in skeletally mature patients thus it is very common challenge for the orthodontics to treat such subject without camouflage therapy. In skeletally mature subjects the treatment only depends on tooth movement, the desired results can be achieved alone or along with surgical interventions. This article describes orthodontic treatment of a 16 years, 17 years and 23 years old Malaysian female whose main complaint were unpleasant smile. The treatment was satisfactorily finished by fixed orthodontic appliance. The satisfactory occlusion with ideal overjet and pleasant smile for all subject were achieved. Therefore with the orthodontics intervention via fixed appliances in subject having mild crowding can be successfully managed.
