title: ["Special" orthodontics to serve esthetics and function].
abstract: Classical orthodontic approaches to bicuspid extractions in closed bite cases do not always reach the esthetic goal. To avoid worsening the profile concavity and undesired alterations in the nasolabial angle, incisor retraction must be discussed individually. We report third molar extraction cases with optimized changes in facial profiles.
