Abstract
Improving facial aesthetics is a major reason why patients with class II division 1 malocclusion look for orthodontic therapy. Two-phase approach that includes functional jaw orthopaedics as well as fixed orthodontic treatment is one of various techniques available to treat Class II malocclusions. The following case report describes a young growing female patient with a Class II Division 1 malocclusion. In the first stage, the patient was treated using Andresen activator for growth modification and correction of her overjet, overbite and profile. Then, fixed orthodontic appliance was used in the second phase, to ensure well-aligned arches and improve aesthetic and function.
