Abstract :
Treatment of Class II malocclusion with significant crowding might be achieved without extraction if an appropriate diagnosis is made. The current study presents the orthodontic treatment for a 12-year-old female patient who was diagnosed with end-on molar relation bilaterally on class I skeletal base with proclined upper anteriors and crowding in lower anteriors. Both in terms of appearance and occlusal function, the post-treatment results met the patients' expectations. This case report details the non-extraction treatment of a class II molar relation by distalization into a class I molar relation utilizing a modified pendulum appliance.
