Abstract

Class II div 2 malocclusions have Labially tipped maxillary lateral incisors and retroclined maxillary central incisors , so placing a straight NiTi wire often aligns these teeth out of the arch. Even though NiTi wires influence the average appointment time and help make life easier for orthodontists, they have a reputation of aligning teeth at the expense of reciprocal forces exerted on adjacent teeth, which are mostly unwanted. A simple method to align these teeth in their correct axial inclinations is explained in the following clinical innovation technique.
