A camouflage treatment of Class II division 1 malocclusion complicated by missing lateral incisor.

This case report describes the treatment of a male patient, aged 16 years and 5 months, with a Class II division 1 malocclusion, who showed severe anterior protrusion and lower anterior crowding along with missing upper left lateral incisor. Treatment plan consisted of extraction of upper right first premolar and lower second premolars. No extraction was performed on the upper left quadrant instead canine was substituted as lateral incisor and premolar as canine to establish a good occlusion. Power arms were used for intrusion and retraction of the anterior teeth. After active treatment period of 21 months, the appliances were removed after establishing ideal overjet, overbite and other occlusal relationships.
