ISW for the Treatment of Adult Angle Class I Crowding with Acceptable Lateral Profile Case

This article describes a 34-year-old adult female with chief complaint of poor dental alignment. She presented with Angle Class I crowding with acceptable lateral profile and had been treated with a non-extraction approach. The diagnosed after examination and analysis was Angle Class I malocclusion on Class I skeletal base with deep overbite and severe crowding. Treatment plan was carried out to preserve premolars and create space by using the MEAW technique, combined with stripping for gaining more space and IME for anchorage control and bite raising. In addition to the correction of deep bite, a better occlusion and a favorable facial profile were achieved.
