Case report ES.
Patients occasionally place limitations on the best of us, forcing major changes in our carefully designed treatment plans. When the following plan of orthodontic treatment was proposed by Dr. Roberto Justus (Mexico City, Mexico), the patient ruled out the use of fixed appliances on her anterior teeth. Out of necessity, an alternative approach to treatment proved effective in the correction of this malocclusion. Records gathered 15 years postretention point to the stability of the resulting treatment.
