case_images: The clinical examination revealed a convex profile with a protrusive maxilla, retrusive mandible, an increased lower anterior facial height, hypotonic upper lip, deep labiomental fold, and hyperactivity of the mentalis and buccinator muscles (Figure 1(a)).
case_images: Pre- and post-treatment intraoral radiographs, before treatment (upper), during treatment (middle), and after treatment (lower).

case_images: Intraoral examination revealed Angle's Class II relationship bilaterally with a protrusion (large overjet up to 6 mm), deep overbite of 6 mm, and constricted maxillary dental arch (Figures 2 and 3).

case_images: Intraoral examination revealed Angle's Class II relationship bilaterally with a protrusion (large overjet up to 6 mm), deep overbite of 6 mm, and constricted maxillary dental arch (Figures 2 and 3). The teeth #55, #54, #65, and #75 were not replaced (Figure 3). Inter-canine and inter-molar widths increased (upper inter-canine width from 30.82 to 35.16 mm; lower inter-canine width from 26.92 to 30.26 mm; upper inter-molar width from 48.67 to 49.48 mm; and lower inter-molar width from 44.08 to 45.06 mm; Figure 3).
case_images: (a) Pre- and post-treatment panoramic radiographs, (b) lateral cephalometric, and (c) tracings of lateral cephalometric superimposed; black lines represent tracing before treatments, and red lines show the tracing after treatments.

case_images: The shapes of the bodies of C3 and C4 vertebrae are trapezoidal, with their superior vertebral borders gradually narrowing from posterior to anterior] based on the supporting examination employing cephalometry (Figure 4(b), upper part/cephalometric before treatment). No apical root resorption was evident, and root parallelism was good (Figure 4).
